...pinch each other, while others flashed the audience. Ava Fabian, a former Miss August, blew kisses and snapped her faux mink stole like a whip. The voluptuous brunet noted a key difference between prepping for a fashion show and a centerfold shoot: "Backstage, you were stripped from head to toe," she says.

...soon proved herself worthy of the intense competition and risky skills at the elite level. A self-professed perfectionist, she exudes a graceful, dancelike quality on the floor, with a toe point that ballerinas would envy. Ray performs one of the most difficult programs of any female gymnast, which should place her shoulder to shoulder with the favored Russians and Romanians in Sydney. Already, she has a signature move, a gasp-inducing uneven-bars maneuver in which she flies off the high bar, twists 360[degrees] in the air like a diver heading for the water, grabs the bar, swings...
