Teacher Quits Job To Twerk For A Living And Is Now Rich
Jessica Vanessa twerks for a living. And she makes a lot of money doing it.
The 22-year-old woman from Florida was discovered by advertisers on Vine, who offered to pay her serious cash to mention their products while shaking her ass for her 2 million followers.
Vanessa, formerly a kindergarten teaching assistant, obliged and now makes six figures annually.
She says she makes more in six seconds than she would have made in four months as a teaching assistant.
Though not everyone supports Vanessa’s career choice — her father Rafael de Leon had some trouble accepting it at first, and Internet trolls love to hate on her — she feels as though she has found her true calling.
Haters gon’ hate, but hey — if she’s making that much money doing a job she likes, more power to her.
I'm sure she likes that she can make a six figure salary so young, but in a decade she'll have to do something else for living. The entertainment industry is sadly ageist after all. If she's smart, she'll make sure she has her teaching job to fall back on
