Polish Olympic sprinter Ewa Swoboda has found herself at the center of an unexpected media storm, not for her athletic achievements, but for her striking resemblance to adult film star Abella Danger. The comparisons, which have gone viral on social media, have sparked widespread discussions and even prompted a response from Danger herself.

Ewa Swoboda, a talented sprinter representing Poland in the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, initially gained attention for her performances on the track. Competing in the women’s 100m and the women’s 4x100m relay, Swoboda quickly became a fan favorite, particularly after a viral moment where she made a military salute before a race. However, it was her uncanny likeness to Abella Danger that truly catapulted her into the social media spotlight.

The resemblance between Swoboda and Danger has been the subject of numerous memes and social media posts, with many users drawing comparisons between the two. Swoboda’s Instagram following has surged to nearly 800,000 as curious onlookers flock to see the athlete, who bears such a close resemblance to the famous adult film star.

The comparisons reached such a level of prominence that Abella Danger felt compelled to address the situation publicly. Taking to her account on the platform X (formerly Twitter), Danger expressed her discomfort with the situation and praised Swoboda, stating, “Why does everyone keep sending me this, a literal Olympic athlete being compared to me I ain’t s**t and I pray she doesn’t see this because she’s 10 times prettier and more talented than me.”

Danger further reiterated her admiration for Swoboda, responding to a post by Barstool Sports that referenced the comparisons. “Please stop calling her that, she’s a literal Olympian and she’s much prettier and 10000 times more talented than I could ever hope to be,” Danger tweeted.

Despite the unwanted attention, Swoboda has remained focused on her athletic career. The 27-year-old from Zory, Poland, narrowly missed out on a spot in the women’s 100m finals, finishing fourth in her semi-final race. She was also excluded from Poland’s 4x100m relay team, which ultimately did not advance past the qualifying rounds.
