- Everts was effectively the founder of female bodybuilding; prior to her it was extremely rare for women to do so. She first began competing in various bodybuilding contests in the NYC area in 1972. It was after her promotion, Esquire 6 page layout in July 1975 and then being on "To Tell the Truth", as well as the Mike Douglas Show and The Stanley Siegel Show, and subsequently getting female body building into Playboy, May 1977 (Humping Iron) that anyone began to hold serious female fitness and body building contests.

- Combined burlesque and an avid interest in weight training to win numerous titles including Miss Body Beautiful 1969 and Miss Nude Universe 1969.

- She is a German author, former stripper, female bodybuilder, photographer, evangelist, mystic, contemplative, and founder of a church.
