Kaitlin Young is a US-based mixed martial artist. She was born on 1985-09-15, which makes her 32 years old - about the average of the featured fighters. She was born in Circle Pines, Minnesota, United States of America. Her height and weight stats are the following: she stands 5'9" (or 175cm tall), which is above average for her bantamweight category, and she weighs 136 pounds (or 62kg).

Kaitlin tries to eat a clean diet, especially before weigh-ins so she strikes the proper weight category. "When I'm in camp, I cut out all processed foods.That means anything on the label or ingredients list that I can't pronounce, don't know what it is, or know it's bad, I won't eat. Xyience Energy drinks are the exception. I love them and they keep me awake for my very busy schedule. I am finding out that I can't really handle processed food outside of fight camps either now," says Kaitlin.

Did You Know...

Chefs made their way into celebrity land a while ago. But how many celebrities that weren’t trained as professional cooks are actually whizzes in the kitchen? Here are several that come to mind.

Actress Julia Roberts is confident about her cooking skills. “I’m quite a good cook,” she told E! News. “I’m like a closet home ec teacher…I can really cook anything.” Roberts has said she often cooks fish for herself and her kids. And speaking of her three children, “They think that I’m a good cook,” Roberts told People. “They actually told me that I should open a restaurant.” She also relishes cooking for the holidays, particularly shredded Brussel sprouts. Roberts hasn’t published a cookbook, but we did find recipes attributed to her for peach crisp and banana hemp muffins. Or you can make the same summer salad the actress supposedly eats.

Chrissy Teigen started off as a supermodel. Then her love of cooking filtered into her professional life too. At this point, she’s created recipes for a limited Blue Apron release and also just launched her own home and cooking line at Target named “Cravings,” after the two cookbooks she’s released. Teigen describes cooking as “a time of peace” for herself. So maybe peace out to her tuna melt sandwich or the fried chicken wings that are a favorite of her husband, John Legend.

Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, comes from a cooking Italian family. Her father started his own restaurant in New York and also published a cookbook. And apparently, Lady Gaga has inherited the family’s cooking genes. Her Instagram account occasionally features photos of her culinary activities. Sure, sometimes it’s topless cooking. But other times it’s more poignant like in the post she shared about her bringing food to the family of her dear friend who passed away. Want to try a Gaga/Germanotta family favorite? Check out her recipe for whole wheat pasta with a sweet fennel sauce.
