Alicia Marie

They call her Krispy Kreme. She is a Magna Cum Laude graduate of the University of Connecticut. Graduating with a BA in Neuroscience, she shows us all that she has just as much brains as beauty. Her name is Alicia Marie Denson. She was born in Cleveland, Ohio, but currently resides in Manhattan, NY. She has done, and achieved everything from, modeling, cheerleading, dancing, softball, track and field, all the way to competitive bodybuilding. She was a former amateur boxer who is 30 percent deaf in her right ear and 70% in her left ear. This resulted from an old boxing injury.

When she was 15, with the support of her mother she entered modeling competitions and searches. She won most and also did small runway shows locally. She continued to do this while in college. It was a great help financially. After college she did some broadcast journalism and hosted TV shows. MTV picked her up from there to work for the network. Doing all this still did not satisfy her. She knew she wanted more.

Alicia decided to enter the South Beach competition and won the Overall title and came in second place at the Ms. Bikini Atlantic and took the Overall title at the Ms. Bikini Universe. She was a force to be reckoned with.

The nickname Krispy Kreme comes from her coach Cathy Savage. She showed up, on the first day of camp, with a box of a dozen KK donuts. She keeps these in her dieting regimen. Because of this, she consistently stays active. Lots of exercise and lots of eating is what she lives.

While taking a break from competing for a moment, she is working hard on a book and a ton of other projects. You can follow her on Twitter and Facebook to get a glimpse into her life.
