A little over four years ago, in the year 2019, a unknown model slash actress named Kelleth Cuthbert went viral at the Golden Globes.

No, she wasn’t in any of the movies or TV shows that were being honored that evening.

She was the Fiji Water Girl.

And she photobombed the living hell out of literally almost every red carpet photo that was taken that night (seriously).

One month later, the Fiji Water Girl (real name Kelly Steinbach) was still in the news because her viral turn led to an acting role on the soap opera The Bold and The Beautiful.

And then she sued Fiji Water.

And then they sued her back.

A cursory search of the internet results in dozens of stories about the lawsuit, but no obvious explanation of who won.

So, with the Golden Globes having just been completed, we got to wondering, “What’s the Fiji Water Girl been up to since all of that happened?”

Well, the Canadian hasn’t done any acting since her three episodes of The Bold and the Beautiful other than in a short in 2020, according to IMDb.

She does still have an acting reel and a hosting reel on the site, so maybe that dream is still alive.

Kelleth Cuthbert posted this video on YouTube in 2021 with the description, “I’ve been saying for years that I’m going to turn my old Livejournal posts and more recent cryptic musings into a series of tiny films and, well, here you go!”

Cuthbert also has a website, which is really nothing more than a Tumblr with photos.

Of course, she’s on Instagram and still active on the platform.

And she’s got a TikTok account.

Overall though, it looks like she’s mostly splitting her time between modeling gigs and rescuing dogs.

Unfortunately, the one thing we would really like to know about Kelleth Cuthbert is who won in the battle of the lawsuits between the Fiji Water Girl and Fiji Water?
