Overnight Celebrity Priscilla Chan

Priscilla Chan has practically become and overnight celeb in the last few days.

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg met his girlfriend Priscilla Chan while standing in line at for the bathroom at a fraternity party during his sophomore year at Harvard, where she was studying medicine. She just might be one of the luckiest ladies alive since Zuckerberg is supposed to be worth billions. So how did she land her man? Twizzlers!

Zuckerberg had approached some of his computer science professors and asked them to recommend students who might be a good fit to work at Facebook. Among their suggestions was Priscilla.

Priscilla and Mark got together after he asked her if she would like a job at Facebook.

“I’d love a job at facebook,” Priscilla responded, offering him a Twizzler.

A movie about Zuckerberg and Facebook called The Social Network is due out in early October which depicts him as cold and manipulative cipher with more talent for betrayal than business or technology. But as the trailer suggests, “You don’t get to 500 Million Friends without making a few enemies”.

Mark Zuckerberg recently donated 100 million to US public schools in Newark and was also recently on Oprah discussing how to turn around the failing public education.
