Former IFBB Pro and American Gladiator Shelley Beattie passed away on February 13, 2008. The family has not released the official cause of death as of yet, but there's no doubt she will be dearly missed. Shelley had been living in Portland, Oregon at the time of her death. Perhaps best known for her role as Siren on American Gladiators, Shelly was also a successful IFBB woman's bodybuilder; placing as high as 3rd at the 1992 Ms. Olympia contest. Stay tuned for updates as they come in.

My respects go out to Shelley's family, as I knew her personally many years back. She won our Emerald Cup overall in 1990 and had a good competitive career.

She was IMO one of the greatest FBBs of all time and will be dearly missed by those who knew her, or even those of us that could only follow her career through the muscle mags and TV. I understand that she suffered with an illness that she was fighting for quite some time and that this was what eventually won out. May she rest in peace.

Oh and here's her signature side tricep pose.
