ESPN shows porn star Abella Danger cheering on Miami during CFP game — and fans took quick notice

Social media had a field day Saturday when ESPN locked in on adult film star Abella Danger taking in her beloved Miami Hurricanes’ 10-3 victory over Texas A&M in the first round of the College Football Playoff.

Abella, a full-time student at Miami, was captured wearing a white cropped top and an orange skirt in the crowd at College Station during the second half, with X users chiming in when she was featured on the broadcast.

“Cameraman thinks he’s slick showing Abella danger in the crowd,” one user posted.

“Ain’t no way camera man found abella danger in the stands,” another wrote, “bro knew what he was doing.”

One user had to do a double-take, writing: “Did they just show the legend Abella Danger on my screen in this Miami vs Texas A&M game?”

Abella, a Miami native who boasts a whopping 9.4 million Instagram followers, could hardly contain her excitement when the No. 7 Hurricanes downed the No. 3 Aggies to set up a quarterfinals matchup against second-seed Ohio State on Dec. 31.

“The fact that in my lifetime I got to witness Miami beat A&M on their home turf with 98,000 of their fans and only 2000 something miami fans in attendance is something i will never ever forget,” she exclaimed on Instagram Saturday.

Miami quarterback Carson Beck connected with wide receiver Malachi Toney for an 11-yard touchdown pass late in the fourth quarter to give the Hurricanes an edge over the Aggies following a 3-3 standoff.

The game-winning score apparently brought Abella to tears.

“Ya’ll I never imagined a touchdown could make me cry the way a touchdown made me cry toray [sic],” she wrote in an Instagram Story. “Okay I’m done talking about the game but honestly i have never in my life witnessed anything like that.”

Miami was engulfed in controversy entering the CFP after securing the final at-large bid, due in part to its August win over Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish were left out of the field after reaching the national championship in January, a 34-23 loss to Ohio State.
