Vaulter Allison Stokke
Allison Stokke is the unofficial face of women’s pole vaulting. When she was just 17 years old, a website journalist took a photo of Allison during a track and field event, which caught the attention of thirsty internet dudes everywhere. Allison stated in an interview that she never wanted the attention, but she did learn to live with it.
Thanks to her internet stardom, she received tons of endorsement deals despite not placing very high on the national rankings. She modeled for Nike, Athleta, and Uniqlo in 2015 and 2016 before signing with GoPro. In 2020, it was reported that she had a personal net worth of $5 million.
