Over the course of the past year, as the WNBA has pulled in more viewers and fans, the teams’ mascots have become equally as big of celebrities as the players — and Ellie has arguably become the most popular mascot in the league. And our girl is totally aware of her star power, as she wrote on X, “Name a mascot with their own shoe….YOU CAN'T.”

This past June, Time Out New York, named Ellie “summer’s it girl.” In an “interview” for the publication, Ellie offered some sound fashion advice. 

“Have confidence whenever you step out! Fashion is like art,” she said. “It’s subjective, so the confidence you exude will always be the determination of how fierce you ARE!”
