20 People Who Will Likely Remember 2020 as Their Luckiest Year

Many people blame 2020 for the difficulties it threw at all of us. But some people know how to create their own destiny, even in the most difficult of times, and turn such moments into happy and successful ones. Looking at them, we also want to pull ourselves together and achieve our goals next year.

We at Bright Side love to share the immense joy of these people, and we hope that you also had bright and pleasant moments this year.

5. “I was chosen at casting. Now, I’m an androgynous model and will participate in a fashion show.”
