Meet the Instagrammer with an amazing rear end - and 1.3 million followers because of it

  • Jen Selter, from New York City, has become an internet hit after posting photos of her workout and yoga sessions to Instagram
  • She counts Rihanna and sports stars among her followers
  • Selter, who is single, admits that some of the pictures can be a little 'showy' but that she wants to inspire and motivate people to stay fit


  • She's recognized wherever she goes and counts Rihanna among her fans - and it's for one very impressive attribute: Her rounded rear end.
    Jen Selter, 20, from New York City, has amassed more than 1.3 million followers on her Instagram account, @jenselter, after posting poses from her workout and yoga sessions.
    Just one picture of her on a workout ball or squatting at the gym can garner as many as 80,000 likes, and thousands consider her a fitness inspiration.
    'I'm recognized wherever I am,' Selter told the New York Post. 'I don't really go to public gyms anymore just because it is a whole big scene when I'm there. I don't like being watched.'

    Once she achieved 300,000 followers, sponsorship offers piled up from companies including Nike, Lululemon and New Balance, among others.
    She has since quit her gym job and secured deals with water company NY20 and a nutrition supplement company, Game Plan Nutrition, for which she is a spokeswoman.
    While she would not reveal how much she makes from these deals, Selter, who did not go to college, said they give her 'a lot more money than a graduate would be making'.
    Her mother, Jill Weinstein, said she couldn't be more proud of her daughter and her following.
    'I'm very proud of her because this is a girl who didn’t want to go to college, and she was able to build up this social media in such a way that she has become famous and she is an inspiration and motivation for so many people,' she told the Post.
