Well this is interesting, Team USA Women’s gymnast and gold medalist Gabby Douglas is going to write a memoir at age 16. The book will be called, Grace, Gold, and Glory: My Leap of Faith. Even though she’s only 16 she has been through A LOT already and should be an interesting read!
Prince William… is NOT impressed! At least it looks like Prince William was photographed with a similar facial expression as McKayla Maroney’s “NOT impressed” look. However, we have no idea why Prince William made the face…
The road to being a champion is never easy and it appears it was even more difficult for Team USA gymnastics London Olympics gold medalist Gabby Douglas. Gabby revealed to Oprah recently that she was bullied and tormented at her first gym she almost quit the sport at age 14. She wasn’t sure if it was just her skin color that brought all the bullying but it’s what caused her to move to Liang Chow’s gym in Des Moines, Iowa where Shawn Johnson trained.
If you’re on the internet these days… ok, dumb opening.. but then you know that Team USA gymnast McKayla Maroney is… NOT IMPRESSED!.. An expression can definitely say it all, and McKayla’s expression upon winning silver in the vault competition has become a hilarious Meme. Click the pic for more!
Looks like not everyone was thrilled with Aly Raisman’s gymnastic performance… at least, not the guy sitting behind Aly Raisman’s parents. This grumpy old man was actually caught live asking Aly’s parents to sit down.
Team USA gymnast Aly Raisman went for Gold in the floor exercise at the London Olympics today… Want to know how she did? Click the pic if you need to know now!
Team USA gymnast Gabby Douglas has sure made her presence known at the London Olympics and even her journey to London was an Olympic trial. Gabby talked recently to the New York Post about how her family is essentially broke and father left them at an early age.
