Business Accomplishments: Self-made online celebrity. High-demand online brand.
Back in 2005, Jessica Chobot licked a Sony PSP. The photo ended up online, making her an instant celebrity. IGN.com then hired her as a video host and staff writer. The ambitious Chobot then picked up additional work as a contributer for Maxim Sirius Radio, a game advisor for Fuel TV, a representative position for a women’s clothing line, and a co-writing gig for the upcoming Sci-Fi movie Soul Code. She’s on, she’s on the up-and-up, and she is plastered all over the Web—what more could you want?
