Belgian football fan Axelle Despiegelaere went to the World Cup in Brazil and returned with a high-profile modeling gig with L'Oreal.
Two weeks ago, the 17-year-old was just a face in the crowd cheering for Belgium in the Group H match against Russia. Then photographers spotted the gorgeous blond and her images went viral on social media and were published by websites and newspapers across the world.
To milk her instant Internet stardom, Despiegelaere opened a Facebook fan page, which garnered more than 200,000 likes. Then came the lucrative contract with L'Oreal, which has unveiled a promotional video featuring the photogenic teen.
