Contrary to what you may think, it is not an easy world to live and fight in, but it sure has a lot of perks and benefits once you make it. One of the advantages of being a star athlete is that the fame, money and status gives you the opportunity to meet beautiful models and celebrities. It generally gives you the ability to meet anyone you’d like.
So, it’s only natural that sports stars get the hottest women on the planet. After all, they are successful and have a lot to offer. (Not that the rest of us don’t, right? Right?) On the other hand, these famous, beautiful women have just as much to offer.
