Wimbush, a Wayne State student and model, had 5,294 followers on Instagram, the photo-sharing application, when one her followers entered her into the contest, she told The Oakland Press. Now, with more than 420 photos posted to her account, she has more than 11,000 followers.

"I was so surprised that they picked my picture because there are so many it's impossible to even look through all the pictures," she told CBS Detroit. "I'm definitely proud of it — it's really exciting."

Wimbush is no stranger to attention. Last year, she was the first runner up in the Miss Michigan pageant and represented Maserati at the North American International Auto Show.
