Standing 5'2.5" and weighing 123 pounds, Tanji Johnson A.K.A. Stealth is an aggressive fighter with fierce passion and attacks unexpectedly. She is immensely strong and cool under pressure, but once she attacks, she will surely unleash hell. Born on January 9, 1975 in Bamberg, Germany, she grew up as an Army brat in Germany and Korea. She attended Irmo High School in South Carolina, where she ran track and field and was the captain of the dance team. She later attended the U.S. Air Force Academy, where she earned her science degree in Humanities, served as a varsity cheerleader and became a member of cadet Honor Guard. Upon completing her studies, Stealth worked at Fairchild AFB in Spokane Washington and began competing in fitness in 1998.
Stealth is one of 12 contenders on NBC's American Gladiators, a reality competition hosted by
