MacKenzie’s love affair with sharks is real.

“I have a terrible fetish and addiction to the Megalodon. I think they still exist down there somewhere. I even have a tooth from one dated over 2 million years old,” she explained. “I love Shark Week. I watch everything that's on all week long. I'm just a child on the inside. But aren't we all.”
