The MMA and Muay Thai fighter also known as 'Conviction' made her feature film lead debut in January's action flick, 'Haywire'.

Casual fans got a heavy dose of the knockout in the early part of the year. We found out her number one movie star crush is on the late Paul Newman,  and that her five favorite films are True Romance, Braveheart, Let Me In, Cry-Baby and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Also, did you know that she was 'Crush' on the 2009 re-boot of 'American Gladiators'? Yeah, we forgot, too.

In April 2012, she became the first recipient of the Chick Norris (Best Female Action Star) Award, given by ActionFest to the female action star of the year.

It's only a matter of time before we see GinaCaranoFacts.com in the vein of ChuckNorrisFacts.
