Lauren Powers

At 64, Lauren Powers remains one of the most recognizable American bodybuilders in the industry. Born in 1961 in Los Angeles, California, she stands 5'8" with a muscular build and a 45–32–36 figure. Her enhanced DD breasts and navel and nipple piercings are part of her distinctive look. She is a Caucasian with blonde hair and blue eyes.

Powers graduated as valedictorian from Huntington Beach High School, then earned a business degree from the University of Hawaii while running a surfing academy on Maui. After moving to Laguna Beach, she witnessed the October 1993 fire that destroyed 17,000 acres in a single day. That experience moved her to join the Laguna Beach Fire Department, and she began weight training in 1994 to pass the physical agility test. She competed in amateur bodybuilding contests from 2001 until 2003.

Television appearances include The Jenny Jones Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, and a 2007 UK documentary 'Muscle Worship' on Channel Five, plus Secret Lives of Women. On December 29, 2010, she appeared on TLC's My Strange Addiction, where she discussed her bodybuilding addiction and six-hour daily workouts. Her Instagram following has reached 101k. She is also a fetish model and actress.
