Being Miss World and a semi-professional rugby league player are not jobs one would usually pair but that’s what makes Sarah a tough cookie ready to take on a game like Survivor.

Sarah grew up playing rugby at four and represented Queensland twice and says the experience made her tough and into the woman she is today. At 13, she was scouted as a model and won the title of Miss World Australia at 19.

And while rugby was tough, it was the modelling circle that really got her built for resilience. She says, “Competing at Miss World international is brutal, it’s a very competitive pageant because you’re there to win, you’re not there to make friends or have a good time.”

It was during the Miss World that Sarah was accused of her villainous side, saying, “When I was representing Miss Australia at Miss World, a bit of controversy happened. Miss Greece told everyone, and it was all over the news that I had pushed her down the stairs of a bus and ruined her chances of winning. I didn’t but if I did, she wouldn’t have gotten up!”

Ready to play as a Villain, Sarah says, “You should never underestimate what a beauty queen is willing to do to win.”
