Katherine Webb became an overnight sensation when ESPN commentator Brent Musburger swooned over her during the BCS championship came earlier this month. Webb, a pageant queen and Alabama quarterback A.J. McCarron's girlfriend, has turned her 15 minutes of fame into a gig for "Inside Edition" and a spot on a reality show about competitive diving.

Webb's spent her first day on the job, Super Bowl Media Day, talking to football players ahead of Sunday's Super Bowl game between the San Francisco 49ers and Baltimore Ravens. But the Alabama beauty repeatedly found herself on the receiving end of interviews.

"It's been absolutely crazy. I feel like I'm one of the players or coaches being interviewed. I've been hounded by media," Webb told USA Today on Tuesday.

Her fellow reporters noticed too:




Bleacher Report threw a few questions at Webb, asking her how her life as changed since the Musburger incident.

"My life will never be the same," she said. "I owe a big thank you to [Musburger]. He's a fabulous man. He's so nice. I feel like the media treated him a little unfairly. ... I couldn't be more thankful, even to Brent."
