Muhammad Ali’s Celebrity Fight Night!

The Mrs. Arizona contestants, former titleholders, and I were honored to volunteer for Celebrity Fight Night, a star-studded evening presented in honor of the featured guest, Muhammad Ali. Celebrities and professional athletes from all over the country participate in a night filled with incredible Live Auction items and live musical performances by many of today’s brightest stars.  This power-packed night of excitement not only leaves the audience with unforgettable memories each year, but more importantly, provides significant dollars for charities that help many people in need. Throughout Celebrity Fight Night’s fourteen year history over $52 million has been raised with the Muhammad Ali Parkinson Center at Barrow Neurological Institute as the primary beneficiary. Numerous other charities have benefited and countless lives have been changed thanks to the tremendous generosity of our supporters.

Modeling at the 38th Annual Barrett-Jackson Classic Car Auction in Scottsdale!

It was a pleasure to model for Barrett-Jackson this weekend in Scottsdale. Thank you so much to my good friend Rosalie Michaels, the Ford/Robert Black Modeling Agency, and George, Kevin, and Craig with Schumacher Mercedes. Fourteen vehicles were auctioned for charities such as the American Heart Association, Young Eagles, and the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. Barrett-Jackson helped raise a combined $6.7 million for charities during the Scottsdale, Palm Beach, and Las Vegas auctions in 2008. These groups need extra support to continue changing lives. Barrett-Jackson is devoted to increasing awareness of these charities by offering amazing vehicles. Tune in to Speed Channel this week to watch this exciting event!
