SYDNEY Thomas has become one of the most popular stars at the minute – and her path has led to her stardom.
The 21-year-old went viral during Netflix’s coverage of the boxing fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson earlier this month.
Thomas was on duty during the Youtuber Paul’s win over the 58-year-old boxing icon.
And she stole the show and trended on social media for her appearance in the ring at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Thomas gained hundreds of thousands of followers as a result.
It was just the second time that she stepped into the ring.
Thomas’ rise in popularity came overnight, but her path helped her become a celebrity.
She grew up in St. Louis, Missouri, and is currently a University of Alabama student.
Thomas works for the St. Louis Cardinals as part of the team’s in-game hype squad.
She is also a catwalk model.
Thomas only made her debut as a ring girl in October in Puerto Rico.
This year, she joined Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions as a ring girl.
In a recent TikTok video, Thomas revealed that she studies management and entrepreneurship and that she will finish a year early next August.
“I do all my classes online to be able to travel and have more flexibility in my schedule,” she added in the clip.
Thomas also said in the social media video that she spends plenty of time taking care of her mind and staying in shape.
“I’m very athletic,” she said. “I love health, wellness, fitness and anything that has to do with improving yourself physically, mentally and emotionally, I’m all in for.
“I’m very driven with self-improvement and just becoming the best version of yourself.”
Thomas recently spoke to Fox News and revealed what she plans on doing as her fame continues.
“I am going to work on continuing to build what I have on my media platforms and build stronger connections with my fanbase,” she said on Wednesday.
“I want to say that I changed someone’s life in a positive way.”
In the meantime, Thomas regularly posts content of herself in revealing outfits, whether it’s Instagram or TikTok.
She has over 1 million followers on the latter social media platform.
Thomas revealed to TMZ that she has been receiving countless amount of money-making opportunities and that she has numerous collaborations in the works.
