50 Things You Were Dying to Know About Keurig Girl

Recently, the Auburn University student newspaper, The Plainsman, did a piece on a local celebrity: Keurig Girl. Cosmopolitan and Seventeen then picked up the story, and Keurig Girl became an instant Internet sensation.


If you haven’t heard of Keurig Girl yet, here are the basics: her name is Madison Collins, and she is a freshman at Auburn University. During finals week last semester, she brought her Keurig with her to the biggest library on campus, and people immediately began flocking to her to 1) see if it was real and to 2) obviously get free coffee. She could often be found that week with a long line stemming from her study desk filled with onlookers and coffee connoisseurs.

The effort to haul your Keurig from your dorm to the library is no easy feat, so you must commend Collins for her dedication to the brew. At first she was just a girl who didn’t want to pay $4 for a cup of coffee, but now she’s Ellen DeGeneres’ latest television guest (not really, but you never know).

I sat down with Collins on Friday to answer all the random questions I knew you were asking about her. Now you’ll never have to wonder again about the truth behind Keurig Girl.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
