Sydney Thomas didn’t just graduate; she shut the whole place down.
The viral ring girl who first captured the internet’s attention during the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson fight just flipped her cap with six of her stunning best friends by her side, and the University of Alabama may never be the same. This wasn’t your average graduation celebration but a full-blown moment.
Thomas, now a proud alum, didn’t walk the stage quietly. She exited with the same spotlight energy that had followed her all year, only this time, she owned the crowd and claimed a personal win. Dressed in white and crimson, flanked by her equally glamorous crew, Thomas celebrated not just a degree, but a journey marked by sudden fame, personal loss, and everything in between.
From Viral Fame To Academic Finish Line
On Tuesday, Thomas shared the news with her nearly 900,000 Instagram followers, posting a series of photos that captured the spirit of the day. “Did it in 3,” she wrote, tagging the University of Alabama.Thomas accomplished the impressive feat of graduating two semesters early, made even more remarkable by the whirlwind she navigated over the past year.

Her message struck a chord with fans, who flooded her comments with messages of support and congratulations. Thomas has used her platform to remain open about her journey, balancing a fast-moving career with the realities of student life and personal loss.

From the viral attention following the Paul-Tyson fight to appearances at events like EA Sports’ Madden Bowl in New Orleans, she’s kept her name in the spotlight.

As graduation photos continue to circulate online, Thomas and her friends are once again drawing attention. The internet is loving the energy, the friendship, and the unapologetic celebration of a hard-earned achievement. “Roll Tide, forever and always xo,” she wrote.
