I have posted about the video of Super Obama Girl at YouTube Live.
She is apparently one of the top YouTube celebrities right now and her fame on Youtube has opened more doors. The Obama girl with 12 million viewers is known in real life as 26 year old Amber Lee Ettinger.
In her Wikipedia entry (link here):
Amber Lee Ettinger (born October 2, 1982[2]) is an American actress, internet celebrity, and model best known as Obama Girl in her on the web video “I Got a Crush… on Obama” — referring to U.S. President-elect Barack Obama — which has earned her scores of media appearances, from a part in a Saturday Night Live sketch with Fred Armisen as Obama to an interview on Geraldo at Massive with Geraldo Rivera.
Early career
A native of Hazleton, Pennsylvania of German, Italian, Swedish and Irish ancestry[3], Ettinger moved to New York City to attend the Fashion Institute of Technology to study fashion and clothing design, having expressed hopes to create her own clothing line and other business ventures.[4] Early in her career, Ettinger was crowned Miss NYC in the 2003 Miss Hawaiian Tropic pageant,[5] later augmenting that title with a nod as Miss Howard Television in June 2007.[6] It was her appearance on Howard TV that brought her to the attention of Leah Kauffman and Ben Relles, who then contacted her about appearing in “I Got a Crush… on Obama.”[citation needed] She has also appeared in a video for The Onion News Network,[7] as well as the music video for the John Popper Project song “Lapdance.”[8]
