During this time she had the opportunity to appear on the show Fear Faction during a special edition episode. When she won Fear Factor: Special Miss USA Edition and made a financial contribution to the National Breast Cancer Coalition with her prize earnings, she would never have dreamed that she would one-day face the disease herself.
