Jusge Sara was on 'The Rebel Billionaire: Branson's Quest for the Best'


I recognized her right away.

From her bio:

"If you haven't seen Blakely flashing her SPANX on QVC, you may have seen her jumping off a cliff or sharing tea with Richard Branson 10,000 feet in the sky. She appeared weekly on Fox, setting daring world-records, meeting Nelson Mandela and leading successful business challenges as a cast member on The Rebel Billionaire: Branson's Quest for the Best. As the first runner-up on the show, she received a $750,000 check from Branson to pursue her dream to start a foundation to empower women on a global scale. She launched The Sara Blakely Foundation in 2006 in Atlanta, with the first annual Give a Damn party, featuring a VIP dinner with Richard Branson and performances by Jewel and Collective Soul. The fundraiser raised $600,000 and provided college scholarships for 278 young women in South Africa.
