Kinsey Wolanski is finally opening up over her viral streaking moment during the 2019 Champions League final.
The 24-year-old darted across the Wanda Metropolitano pitch in a skimpy black swimsuit two years ago and was immediately a hit on social media as everybody scrambled to find out who she was.
The entire stunt was to simply promote her then-boyfriend’s porn site, which cost her to spend five hours in jail. Speaking in an interview with Names Magazine, Wolanski commented on how her streak affected her career.
Not too long after the incident, she gained over two million Instagram followers.
“I definitely wasn’t prepared for what was to follow that game,” Wolanski said. “But going into it I was excited to push things to the limit and see where it would go as I love living life to the fullest!
“I’m very thankful for that experience as it grew my platform that I now have to share and connect with a wider audience across the world.”
At the time she was just 22 years-old, and she’s since gone on to create a successful swimwear brand.

She said weeks after the final in 2019: “By the time I’m 30 I plan on making enough money to retire, and streaking at the Champions League will only help me achieve that.
“After I was released from jail I had gone from 300,000 followers on Instagram to over two million. You can’t buy that kind of publicity.
“Suddenly I was famous all over the world and had job offers flooding in. I don’t think I did anyone any harm, it was just a bit of fun.”
In January 2020, she paid tribute to Kobe Bryant by streaking during the Men’s Slalom at the FIS Ski World Cup. Kobe had just passed away days before.
