Remember Michelle Jenneke, the Australian athlete? She became famous courtesy of a youtube video going viral.... The viral video had Michelle Jenneke doing her usual dancing warm-up routine before her hurdles race last year at the IAAF World Junior Championship.
“I was absolutely amazed when I found out Sports Illustrated wanted to shoot me,” Jenneke said, also adding, “I looked at the pictures and I think, wow, is that really me?”
Check out my earlier post on her - Michelle Jenneke who??

Now, Sports Illustrated has featured her in their February 2013 issue with three other sports women. The other athletes featured are Hawaiian surfer Alana Blanchard and Dutch hockey stars Ellen Hoog and Eva de Goede. Michelle Jenneke has certainly used her fame to good use by featuring in the Sports Illustrated photo shoot.
