Beeson appeared as "herself" in a documentary short called "Lockdown On Main Street" (2003). Here is a summation of it from the IMDB (Internet Movie Database):

"This 24 minute featurette can be found on disc 2 of the 2-DVD special edition of "the Running Man". Does it have anything to do with the film? You would think it would if the powers that be put it on the disk, but alas no it doesn't. It's just a scare tactic piece on post-9//11 security measures. You know the typical Hollywood party line. Patriot Act BAD. Bush EVIL. McCarthy EVIL. Nixon EVIL. J. Edgar Hoover EVIL. blah blah blah. This featurette would be more at home as an extra on a Micheal Moore DVD. And I HATE that it's on this DVD for NO REASON AT ALL!! "

"Identify PRIMARY sexual characteristics."

Primary sexual characteristics are the genitalia.
Secondary sexual characteristics for females include developed breasts, widening of the pelvis and pubic hair. The primary are there at birth, the secondary appear at puberty.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

I knew that. I should have included the sarcasm tag?

There's some really bad hairdos in the photo. The spokesperson is somewhat scary looking.
