A 17-year-old from Belgium; Axelle Despiegelaere didnt know that the course of her life was about to change when someone took her photos during rooting for her country’s soccer team two weeks ago. The picture of the attractive Belgian dressed in her country’s paraphernalia made the rounds on Twitter and newspapers all over the world.
Since returning home to Belgium, the teen set up a Facebook fan page that has amassed over 18,300 fans and counting.
L’Oreal approached Axelle soon after and offered her a modeling contract. A promotional video for the cosmetics company was filmed afterwards.
Unfortunately, Axelle’s team got eliminated by Argentina in the quarterfinals.
With an affiliation with a big brand like L’Oreal, Axelle may want to rethink this photo and caption.
