Abella Danger apologizes after NCAA final appearance
Abella Danger, a former adult film star, is speaking out after suddenly becoming a viral sensation during the NCAA final game. The current University of Miami student was caught on ESPN’s broadcast during the Miami Hurricanes’ tense College Football Playoff Championship game against the Indiana Hoosiers at Hard Rock Stadium. Danger looked visibly frustrated as she watched her team trailing by 10 points with less than seven minutes left.
The camera zoomed in on her, thinking she’d be the perfect example of a worried Canes supporter. Her reaction indeed proved that she is a devoted Miami Hurricanes fan as she sat on the edge of her seat, totally invested in the game. The match ended with the Hoosiers defeating the Hurricanes 27-21 in a thrilling game, thereby winning their first college football national championship.
Danger’s unexpected cameo has garnered widespread attention on social media, with some users joking that ESPN was being “unapologetically horny” for highlighting her during a tense moment. But not everyone found it humorous, with many taking issue with the camera’s focus on the ex-porn star.
Reacting to the backlash, the 30-year-old later apologized for any offense caused by her appearance. “I would give anything in the world to not have ESPN film me, and I am so deeply sorry to anyone I offended with my attendance at the game. I wish I could be any other student supporting my team”, she stated (via TMZ).
For those unaware, Abella Danger has been a lifelong Miami Hurricanes fan. She has attended every home game this season and even cheered for the team during earlier CFP games. Born Amirah Day, Danger has been documenting her experience as a student fan on her Instagram, where she has over 9.5 million followers.
