Back in the good old days, models used to get discovered while walking down a street. Today, you don’t have to be a model scout to give someone the chance to be a top model. With the power of social media, the world is becoming smaller. A photo, commentary, or video can be shared around the world within seconds. That may explain why you have Instagram celebrities who share their talent for millions to see. Still, these individuals are seeking online fame. Others are simply thrust into the spotlight. 18-year-old Arshad Khan does not own a phone to take selfies of his piercing, clear blue eyes. Still, one photo of him has made him an online heartthrob. The teen owes his sudden fame to photographer Jiah Ali. The shutterbug took Khan’s photo as part of her street series that she shared on Twitter. Khan had no idea saying yes to his photo being taken would change his life overnight.
