Sokol, who joined "Dancing with the Stars" in 2022, quickly became a sensation and the unofficial successor to Anna Aronov. This season, she made a remarkable debut, dancing the first session in the premiere episode alongside Tal Morad. The duo quickly rose to the top of the leaderboard, securing the title of "season's promising stars."

The pair (Sokol and Morad) became audience favorites, captivating viewers with their relationship and sparking curiosity about a potential romantic connection.

Sanna (25), who comes from a background in ballroom dancing and is also known as a model and social media star, is celebrating her first major fashion campaign. For the Fall-Winter 2024/25 photoshoot, she will earn approximately NIS 150,000.

The campaign featuring Sokol is set to launch in September 2024, coinciding with the new collection's release. The campaign's budget is estimated at 1.5 million shekels and will include TV commercials on Channel 12 and Channel 13, billboards, newspaper ads, a wide-reaching digital campaign, social media activities, and in-store promotions.

Ronnie Insaz, CEO of SCOOP, explained the decision to choose a dancer as the brand ambassador: "The decision stems from two main reasons.

Sokol possesses exceptional dancing talent and embodies SCOOP's values: success, femininity, elegance, and fashion."

Sanna Sokol on being chosen as the brand ambassador: "I am very flattered that SCOOP Shoes chose me as their ambassador for the upcoming season. This is my first time as a brand ambassador, and I see it as a great honor. I am a known shoe enthusiast, and I think I will feel completely at ease on this new runway."
