When Chastity Bono participated in the VH1 reality series Celebrity Fit Club early in 2006, one of her fellow contestants was Kelly LeBrock, who told RadarOnline.com that even back then Cher's daughter wanted to be called "Chaz.
"Chaz never spoke about wanting to become a man. What a burden he must have carried around as Chastity," Kelly, still best-know for her '80s flick, "The Woman in Red," said.
Kelly recalled that during the three months of the diet competition, Chaz's partner Jennifer Elia, was frequently around the set, encouraging Bono. "She was lovely; a beautiful woman. "I think it's fantastic that Chaz has had the courage to make this decision. What a brave human being he is to stand before the world and reveal the truth about himself. It's inspiring."
