Ring Girl Sydney Thomas Opens Up on Impact of Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul Fame

In a boxing event, you’d expect the spotlight to be on the fighters, right? But during last month’s Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight—it wasn’t just the boxers making headlines. Sydney Thomas, a ring girl who has since gone viral, became the talk of the event. Fans have been captivated by her beauty, and Thomas is now navigating the arena of her newfound celebrity status.

The 21-year-old recently opened up about how her sudden rise to fame has impacted her life during an interview with Most Valuable Promotions (MVP). Despite the attention, Thomas remains grounded and focused on her education, as she’s currently studying at the University of Alabama. However, balancing her growing popularity with her personal life hasn’t been easy.

Thomas also featured at the Antonio Vargas vs. Winston Guerrero headlining event at the Caribe Royale in Orlando, Florida. Before the event, she promoted it for MVP on X, where her follower count has surged dramatically. “Your favourite ring girl is back. Catch me in the ring again tomorrow on DAZN,” she posted, generating buzz among fans.

During the event, she sat down with an MVP representative to discuss how her life has changed. “I had like 220,000 on Instagram and now I’m at like 800-something thousand. And then TikTok, I had like 600,000. Now, I’m at 1.1 million. So, pretty much doubled everywhere all around,” Thomas shared.

The viral ring girl previously revealed that her newfound fame came with a plethora of DMs from people everywhere, who want to take her out for a date. “There’s everything, anything from blue check marks to random people,” she claimed. However, having broken up with her boyfriend last summer, Thomas claimed she wasn’t ready to start dating again.

Meanwhile, Thomas has revealed the secret behind her looks. 

Sydney Thomas sheds light on her routine before every fight

Thomas recently hopped on TikTok to reveal her go-to beauty routine for looking flawless under the bright lights. “One of my biggest things is to look tan on camera,” Thomas shared. To achieve her signature glow, she relies on Tanologist tanning drops and express tan mousse, adding, “By the time the fight comes around, your skin tone is just perfect.”

She tops it off with a body glow mist, ensuring she’s “always glowing.” Thomas also prioritizes her smile with Crest 3D Whitestrips, saying, “These things work like magic.” For a fresh face, she uses Charlotte Tilbury’s Flawless Finish setting powder, and for her lips, a Glow Recipe lip mask. “It almost looks like a gloss but stays so much better,” she explained.

That said, after her appearance in the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight, Sydney Thomas is ready to launch her own career in the beauty industry. However, for now, she seems to be sticking with Most Valuable Promotions. What are your thoughts on the impact of fame on Thomas’ life?
