No, she's saying 'fuerte'.
I've noticed a difference in the pronunciation of the Spanish 'f' and the English 'f', especially in Central America (and Mexico).
The English 'f' is defined as a voiceless labialdental fricative. The upper teeth touch the lower lip when this sound is made. In Central America (and Mexico), I don't think they use the upper teeth. Instead, they use the upper lip, which is much like how they make the voiced labialdental fricative /β/ sound found in 'abogado' /a.βo.ˈɣa.ðo/.
Let's ask the native speakers what they think.
