If your eyeballs have been glued to your phone for the past, hm, five years, Jena Frumes is more than likely on your radar. She was probably all over your Vine feed (RIP) doing some funny skits or workout-style videos, or maybe you spotted a pic of her basking in the sun somewhere tropical on your Instagram Explore page, or you just came across clips of her on Wild ’N Out. Nowadays, the woman is a regular on your FYP and also happens to be dating a super-famous musician.

But you might be surprised to learn that she was working at Hooters and was *thisclose* to becoming a lawyer before her social media career took off. So on that note, let’s dive in. Who *is* Jena? Answers right this way.
