Olympic Long Jumper Received an Offer on Instagram to Become an Escort

Russian Olympic long jumper Darya Klishina sat down for an interview with Russian media and talked about training in the United States.  The 29-year-old, who currently lives and trains in Atlanta talked about the differences between the US and her home country.

During the interview Klishina revealed that a random man DM'd her on Instagram to try to get her to become an escort.  After she declined the man told her that she could make $200,000 per month.

“Can you imagine? I was offered to provide escort services. It was less than six months ago. I was really shocked,” Klishina said, talking to sports.ru.

“An unknown man messaged me on Instagram. I’m not in the habit of being rude, but I adamantly rejected the offer.

“[I said] ‘Sorry, but I’m not interested in that.’ But he continued: ‘Oh please, don’t refuse it, you don’t know all the terms. I’m offering you a huge amount of money.’ He said I will earn $200,000 per month. I was just wondering do I really come across as an escort girl?”

Now I know she had to say no to the offer, but she might want to keep that DM just in case.  She's 29 and being an Olympian doesn't last forever.  I mean, what happens if she gets seriously injured?  A strong six-month run could set her up for a few decades, just saying.
