When Anji Nyquist appeared on “Jeopardy!” earlier this month, she had no idea that she would turn into a social media sensation!

The native from Minneapolis, Minnesota, made a splash with audiences after she won an episode of the long-running trivia game show that aired on July 5. She did a “ask me anything” segment on her Instagram page shortly after her appearance, but she said that so many “creeps” responded to her that she had to take her Instagram page private!

‘Jeopardy!’ Champ Anji Nyquist Takes Instagram Private After ‘Creeps’ Keep Asking Her To Make An OnlyFans!

Unfortunately, fans can no longer see photos or videos of the “Jeopardy!” champion on Instagram, as her page is now private. Fortunately, she still has photos available on Twitter to document her time on the game show, including one that features her posing with “Jeopardy!” host Ken Jennings.

In a recent interview with The Sun, Anji admitted that she got a lot of unwanted questions after her appearance on the game show that was directed toward her body and not her love of learning. “I did an ‘ask me anything,’” she said. “And there were a lot of people who asked, ‘Would you do an OnlyFans? It would be really popular.’”

Although she was “flattered” by some responses, she was unnerved by others. “You’re gonna get some nice people, and you’re gonna get some creeps. I have been getting DMs from random men,” she went on to say, revealing that some “Jeopardy!” fans have told her, “You’re the hottest contestant ever.”

Anji Wants To Be Remembered For Her Brain, Not Her Body

Although it can be flattering to have so many fans telling her how “beautiful” she is, she wants to be remembered for how well she performed on the game show and not just what she looks like. She even took to Twitter to address comments about her appearance, saying that her lips are real, even if her lash extensions and micro bladed brows are not.

Anji told The Sun, “‘Jeopardy!’ is about your brain and your performance in this scenario,” adding, “It was not what I was expecting, that’s for sure.” She also told the outlet that she was shocked by how small the actual set is, compared to how it looks on TV. She said it was “smaller” than she expected and noted that the “board and contestants aren’t that far apart.”

She said that contestants are not that far away from host Ken Jennings, who she described as “a hero of mine.” Anji has been a longtime fan of the show and used to watch it with her father, who unfortunately passed away before her big game show appearance. However, the two did manage to watch professional sports gambler James Holzhauer and his record-breaking streak, which lasted from April to June 2019.

“My dad would do the ‘all in’ motion with James, and he would cheer when he got them right so that’s a special memory for me. Now I’m part of that family,” she recalled.

Although she expected that there would be some “negativity” in response to her run online, she didn’t think that she would get as much attention as she is currently getting now! She said, “I knew there’d be some negativity, but it was great to have 15 minutes of fame.”
