Why is Vanessa Rousso famous?

I have only been keeping up wiht poker for about a year now, so excuse me for my ignorance. I have looked up her accomplishments and her biggest cash was a recent online
3rd place finish for ~$450K. She has never made a televised final table, and she had never cashed in anything until late 2005. I have seen her play on TV, and she plays A-B-C poker; so it's not her play.

What am I missing?? Why does she get so much attention??

From everything I've heard she was supposed to be the top cashing female last year.. and she's not ugly... She's not super attractive, but she's not horrible looking.

You can upgrade that online finish to 2nd now. For about $700K.
