The university student went from being a little-known aspiring model to a heavyweight hitter on social media after her role at Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson last November.

Legend Tyson, 58, suffered a Texas massacre on points that night but Sydney found global fame, helped by Netflix broadcasting the much-hyped event.

Now the 21-year-old has expanded her profile to more artistic entertainment, with her invitation to the Grammys.

She wore a long, figure-hugging, grey dress, topping off her look with an elegant necklace and pearly earrings.

One fan described her as "beyond stunning" while another reckoned she was "finer than wine".

And n-one could blame Sydney if she was feeling drunk on success as her gown pic earned likes at the rate of 2,000 per hour on Instagram alone in the first 24 hours.

Other verdicts included: "So beautiful"... "absolutely stunning",,, and "You're so cool".

Away from red-carpet nights out, Sydney has split from her boyfriend, partly because she wanted time to "discover who I am".

However, she stressed he was "great" and she had “no problems with him at all".

Sydney has also revealed she might consider becoming a ring girl full-time.

Around 65m viewers across the planet watched the Paul/Tyson mis-match at theAT&T Stadium in Arlington three months ago.

That huge number is one reason her following across Instagram, TikTok and X instantly exploded.

And Sydney is experiencing another surge following the Grammys.

CBS reckon that, although their direct TV viewing for the event fell to 16m this year, it still set a new record online.

They claim it was "the most social television programme ever” - with 102.2m interactions. 

Maybe the 2.2m to push it past nine figures were Sydney's followers!
