The insane seven-figure value of streaker's five seconds of fame

Yahoo Sport Australia

It’s been revealed the viral streaker at the Champions League final could have earned as much as $6 million in advertising with her five seconds of fame.

A scantily-clad blonde pitch invader by the name of Kinsey Wolanski proved the highlight for many football fans in a Champions League final dubbed the 'worst of all time'.

Wearing a high-cut swimsuit, Wolanski ran onto the pitch and spoke to some of the players before she was taken away by security.

It's since emerged the woman who stole the headlines is the model girlfriend of Russian Vitaly Zdorovetskiy, a controversial prankster with an X-rated Youtube site.

The 22-year-old Kinsey Wolanski had Vitaly's name printed on the bikini she was wearing, as the images were beamed to millions across the world.

And according to sports betting and business expert Darren Rovell, the stunt was worth about $US3.97 million in advertising for Vitaly Uncensored (AU$5.73 million).

That figure was calculated by Apex Analytics, as of about 12 hours after the game.

And it’s also had a massive effect on her social media following.

Wolanski’s Instagram followers jumped from around 300,000 to 2.5 million after the stunt, although that appears to be all for nought.

As of Monday morning (AEST), Wolanski’s account had been shut down, with the woman herself revealing she’d been hacked.

“I’ve never used Twitter before but now I will because my Instagram got hacked,” Wolanski said. “It’s been a rollercoaster you guys, it’s been crazy.”

Taking to Instagram before the account was shut down, she thanked her fans for their support.

“You guys I can’t even fathom what is going on right now, I feel amazing and so thankful, I really could cry,” she said.

“I really did this just because I really want to push myself out my comfort zone, I love that feeling — that adrenaline feeling and doing crazy things.

“I love to do crazy things all the time, but I never thought it would get to this scale and all of your support and messages and everything is so amazing.

“And I really want to do something special for you guys, anything that I can, so I’m going to offer 1000 free signed posters. I love you so much and I want to thank you guys in any way I can.”
