Stephanie Louise Rice quotes
“I'm looking forward to seeing how much faster I can go and edging myself closer to being the number one in the world.”

"Stephanie Rice: To me Michael Phelps is a huge inspiration and someone I
really look up to."
-Stephanie Louise Rice


2006 Commonwealth Games, Melbourne
Rice was the gold medallist in the 200 metres and 400 metres individual medleys. In the 200 m she defeated Olympians Brooke Hanson and Lara Carroll to win the event in a time of 2:12.90, a personal best by 1.19 seconds.

2007 World Aquatics Championships
Rice won bronze in the 200 m and 400 m individual medleys. In the 200 m final, she recorded a time of 2:11.42, a second below the previous Australian record, behind American Katie Hoff in 2:10.13, and Kirsty Coventry of Zimbabwe, who claimed second place. In the 400 m final, Rice recorded a new personal best time of 4:41.19, shaving 0.54 sec off her previous best.

2007 Other events
Rice set a new personal best time of 4:40.79 in the 400 m individual medley at an Italian meet in June 2007,[citation needed] edging closer to the 4:40 barrier in the event.

At the 2007 Japanese Open Championships, Rice won silver behind Zimbabwean champion Kirsty Coventry in the 400 m individual medley. In doing so, she smashed her personal best time by 3.61 seconds, cracking the 4:40 barrier and setting a new Australian and Commonwealth record of 4:37.18.[citation needed]

Australian Olympic Trials
At the 2008 Australian Olympic trials, Rice broke the world record in both the 400 m and 200 m individual medleys. In the 400 m, she clocked 4:31.46, 1.43 seconds below American Katie Hoff's mark of 4:32.89. (Hoff retook the world record at the U.S. Olympic Trials, on 29 June 2008, with a time of 4:31.12.) In the 200 m, she clocked 2:08.92 seconds, taking almost a second off the previous record held by China's Wu Yanyan.

2008 Beijing Olympics
In Beijing, Rice won three gold medals (each in world record time) in the 200 m and 400 m individual medleys and in the 4 × 200 metre freestyle relay. In winning the 400m individual medley, Rice won her first Olympic medal, Australia's first gold medal of the games and its 400th Summer Olympic medal. Recording a time of 4:29.45, she reclaimed the world record from Hoff, bettering the mark by 1.67 seconds, and became the first woman to break the 4:30 mark in the event. (Kirsty Coventry also went under 4:30 in taking the silver.) Her second gold medal of the games came on 13 August in the 200 m individual medley with a new world record time of 2:08.34. Rice prevailed after being neck and neck with Coventry throughout the last 50 m, who once again followed Rice to beat the old world record. On 14 August she won her third gold medal as part of the 4 × 200 metre freestyle relay team. She led off the team and Australia were in second place at the end of her leg.

Photo 'scandal'
Rice made headlines in Australia when several media outlets published pictures from her Facebook page that showed Rice having fun with fellow swimmers, including Sullivan. One of the photos, from a costume party, showed Rice dressed as a policewoman in a skimpy outfit (Sullivan was dressed as a sumo wrestler). Though the photos were relatively innocent, they seemed to portray Rice as a "party girl," and Swimming Australia responded by asking her to take them down. But as internet photo scandals go, Rice's proved harmless. "It was a bit disappointing," Rice said. "But I wasn't too upset over it. I think that it was taken the wrong way, and everyone knew that the media was twisting it around."

Stephanie Marie McMahon-Levesque better known as Stephanie McMahon

Born September 24, 1976
Stephanie Marie McMahon-Levesque better known by her maiden name Stephanie McMahon, is World Wrestling Entertainment's Executive Vice President, Creative Development & Operations. She is the daughter of WWE Chairman Vince McMahon and WWE CEO Linda McMahon, as well as the younger sister of Shane McMahon.

McMahon began regularly appearing with the company in 1999 as a part of a storyline with The Undertaker. After a brief on-screen relationship with Test, she was linked to Triple H—who she married both on-screen and later in real life—which culminated in the McMahon-Helmsley Faction storyline. During her tenure in the company, she held the WWF Women's Championship once. In 2001, she was the on-screen owner of Extreme Championship Wrestling during The Invasion. The following year, she was the SmackDown General Manager, but stopped appearing regularly on television after an "I Quit" match with her father, Vince. After making sporadic appearances for several years, she began appearing regularly on Raw in 2008 as the Raw brand General Manager.

Backstage roles

McMahon began her WWF career as an Account Executive for the WWE sales office in New York. In her early years with the company, she did reception work, creative design, television production, and acted as a ring performer. After spending time as the Director of Television Writing, a job she had by 2002, she was promoted to Senior Vice President of Creative Writing in 2006. According to a WWE SEC filing in March 2008, McMahon's approximate salary in 2007 was $677,125.

McMahon was promoted to Executive Vice President of Talent, Creative Writing, and Live Events in 2007. During her time in this position, she turned down a potential incest angle. According to her, Vince was to reveal himself as the father of her baby; when she said no, he pushed for Shane to be the father, but she turned that idea down, as well.

McMahon got breast implants in July 2001. In an October 2001 interview, her mother Linda commented on her daughter's enhancement, saying, "My first concerns are always with health issues. Stephanie had thoroughly investigated the procedure, and she had answers to all the questions that I asked, and so I felt comfortable that if that was something that she wanted to do, then she should proceed, and she had my full support." During her October 2002 appearance on The Howard Stern Show, McMahon stated that she was contemplating getting an even larger set of implants because she had recently lost weight at the time, thereby making them smaller

She has also been accused of having initiated the firing of Joanie "Chyna" Laurer, who left the WWF in 2001. Laurer, who was romantically involved with Paul "Triple H" Levesque for several years, claimed her departure was not due to pay, but because McMahon wanted her out of the company. Laurer claimed that during her relationship with Triple H, McMahon had an affair with him and stole him away from her. McMahon and Levesque began dating in 1999 when their scripted romance became real, and they were engaged on Valentine's Day in 2003. On January 8, 2006, WWE announced that McMahon and Levesque were expecting their first child, due on July 27, 2006. McMahon continued to work and travel with WWE throughout her pregnancy, giving birth to an 8 lb, 7 oz (3.8 kg) baby girl, Aurora Rose Levesque, on July 24, 2006. McMahon and Levesque had their second child on July 28, 2008, a daughter named Murphy Claire Levesque
