who is Ivana Hong? Sorry, I haven't heard of her before!

[theghastlypirate]

@dragonsgymnast Ivana is a gymnast who came from GAGE and switched to WOGA after the Olympics due to some controversy involving some broken bones in her foot. She was on the 2007 World's team and was an alternate for Beijing. She is the 2009 World Championship Bronze medalist on beam. She has great form and is currently out with an injury.

[pen24]

anybody see that chinese blow that vault? not that it mattered with the judges or anything

[Irishrachel1]

why? that song suits my life now. i'm my own best friend...........

[cincinnatired222]

sounds like somebody needs a hug... fuck that im not goin all the way to ireland

[Irishrachel1]

screw u my best friend just died. i wouldn't want a hug from u anyway perv!

[Irishrachel1]

that song makes me cry.....

[kemsing]

The whole world is full of different cultures no matter what country you live in so you kind of put up with it....I am sooo pleased for the usa team and have love watching their strength and character shine through ever since Bela Karoli moved there since Nadia Comaneci days.... Its brilliant stuff,Well done Nastia and Shawn.

[thaophan99]

y does it have a chinese girl in it

[gymgirl115694]

Thats Ivana Hong she isn't Chinese she waz an alternate for the US team.

[Kathi10123]

No, she's talking about last night, I think. When Chung Fei landed on her knees on the vault...

[lolbunnilatte]

yeah, i remember that. the bronze belonged to alicia sacramone. i can't believe they gave it to cheng fei. she didn't do so well in the other s either, like in the floor she got something in the 14's. and also, the he kexin girl? in the bars, nastia liukin should've won it. :] oh well. nice video.

[perfectgymnastics]

she's chinese but competes for the u.s!!! duh. do u do research or watch interviews???

[xxameliaaxx]

I agree wiff pen24 they got away with everything a 157sumthin with a fall and wobbles on beam? ya RIGHT

[thjlll7]

TO most American who blame Chinese team:

"what a loser"

learned from "American pie"

[pen24]

am i the only one who though China got by with a lot of bullshit last night? already knowing they are underage.

[chenjayu]

who tell you our chinese girls are underage,you son of a bitch.by the way,Nastia Liu once was ruassian.and Shawn Johnson's coach is a chnese.just like your american vollyball women's coach is also chinese.you americans onl know steal the other cuntrys' famous people.

[greenzbaby94]

kewl!!!.. umm. what is this song called?

[lolbunnilatte]

it's called outside lookin in by jordan pruitt.

[littlestowy]

was nastia in a movie? she looks like one of the girls in stick it. but then again i really dont know much.

[sevans12345]

yeah she played herself and did a bar routines in the last bit of the film.

[littlestowy]

ahhh it thought so.. thanks :)

[cheerchick12293]

nastia was in stick it

[froobcity]

why are all Gymnastics always so young? They all seem to retire at around age 20

[ForAnAngel522]

They are not as young as they used to be. Not too long ago there were 14-15 year olds competing in the olympics but then they set the minimum age limit at 16. They're thinking of raising it again to 18.

[xxameliaaxx]

its gymnasts and its cuz ur body gives out and ur not as flexible when ur older so u start young, end early.

[Frogger0neXx]

Come on show some class, I bet know one would be complaining if they would have beaten China.

[Frogger0neXx]

xxameliaaxx" oops, I commented to the wrong person.

[lorduke16]

how old is ivana?

[Starlight697]

ivana looks scary thin at 1 23! but great montage!

[iluvOhMyJonas]

yes she looks really scary thin

[MizzLinhy]

who sings this song

[tumblegirl10]

jordan pruitt

[Crazie4Gymnastics]

I predicted the Olympic team right except for Bridget....Shayla was on the team...sniff..snifff

[briaberger]

I was right about the Olympic team! It's exactly as I predicted it! Can't wait for Beijing!

[Crazie4Gymnastics]

ivana looks like a suck-up hugging Bela Karoyli

no offense

[emilywik14]

i almost cried when i heard about Shayla and her leg.

[briaberger]

This is how I think the team will shake out (tell me if you agree or disagree):

Shawn and Nastia definitely.

Chellsie definitely, as she came in third (I think?). Then I am 90% sure Sam and Alicia will make the team. The sixth girl is a mystery for me. I know Ivana came in 5th, but she struggled through the trials and wasn't in top form like she used to be. I wouldn't be surprised to see Bridget or Mattie in that 6 spot... I saw some fire in their eyes.

Good luck USA!

[flipstyleRHM]

I agree with 1-5 and for 6 I am thinking Shayla or Jana.

[briaberger]

I really doubt Shayla- she didn't even qualify for the trials, she had to petition to be there, and she fell on the uneven bars- I do love her though!

[mrflipz]

The only reason she petitioned was because she was injured at nationals and that when you were supoose to qualify.

[briaberger]

Yes, and since when has Marta put recently injured girls on the team?

[mrflipz]

Ivana Hong 07 worlds :]

But what has been said was that if she is recovered by Trials she has a high chance of being on the team.

[nastialiukinrox]

OMG!! i luv this video!! I luv everyone in it and i hope that they all go to the olympics!! GREAT JOB!!

[polkadotpig13]

who is the girl at 0:42 ??

[gymgirl115694]

Thats Jana Bieger

[polkadotpig13]

thanks!

[nastialiukinrox]

Nastia Liukin @ 0:42

[lyricgymnast]

shawn is the best:)

[gymnast116]

i want the team 2 be:

Nastia

Shawn

Alicia

Shayla

Sam

Chellsie

... I want Mattie and Ivana on the team 2 but I think ther gonna be alternates :/

Great vid!

[anner442]

Nastia, yeah she has the russn elegance and style. She f'n rocks this world. That girl should be on the Romin team (ha, ha,). My fav. on this team for exemplifying what fe gymtics is all about...we are def. judging her above shawn (joke in intnl. jdg!)

Shn- she has the peppy quality.

Chesllsie-I think this girl is getting gold...she is so cool...not cold but getting it done with so much style!!! Love her! (TEAM) Duh, I think that she has been way under valued. She is GOLD baby!

[nastialiukinrox]

I agree with your team choice, gymnast116

[gymnast116]

yeah, I'm pretty happy w/ that cause they would make the strongest scores to win in Beijing :)

[tammy842]

With Shayla newly injured, she's out (that SUCKS!). Maybe Jana? Is Bridget any good on bars? I know she was having trouble with her dismount at trials.

Yikes, I think I might be more nervous than the girls competing!

[cloverlove26]

nice

[Liukinsfan]

My Team would be: Shawn Nastia Chellsie Sam Shayla Alicia Alternates: Jana Bridget Ivana

[xolilchica767xo]

what is the song? its amazing

[gymgirl115694]

Outside Looking In by Jordan Pruitt is the song.

[gymgirl115694]

oh yeah and shadow by Demi Lovato

[Region2Gymnast]

nope ivana is too young togymnast115694 is right she doesnt turn 16 until next year

[stlgurl702]

She turns 16 in December of this year. Ivana is NOT to young. One of the reasons why she has been competing at the Olympic Trials.

[anner442]

They will put her in. Sorry competing in China.

[stlgurl702]

My team: Shawn Nastia Alicia Chellsie Sam Ivana Alternates: Bridget Shayla Jana

[alysssaaoxo]

agreed.

[WSBT960]

Ivana blew her chance at trials, Jana Bieger will get the last spot.

Ivana Hong, reminds me too much of Vanessa Atler in 2000, ton of talent, but way too mistake prone in important moments.

[alysssaaoxo]

true true

[cheer4gymnasts]

Agreed.

I don't like Jana all too much... She's not too artistic.

[gymgirl115694]

i would have but i couldn't figure out how to put videos together and couldn't find download links to videos if u could send me some that would be Great!

[yoyoyosarahm]

they always have nice abs and nice arm muscles, :)  I used to have it all

[smudge2811]

My Team Would Be:

shawn johnson

nastia liukin

alicia sacramone

shayla worley

samantha pesek

mattie larson

(:

[gymgirl115694]

My team would have to have eight people on it cause i wouldn't be able to decide: Everyone u picked plus Ivana Hong and Chelsea Davis! I wish eight people could be on the olympic team.

[tammy842]

We would need Chellsie Memmel's bar routine.

[twgymnast12345]

Ivana Hong isn't goin to the Olympics--She is too young. She will be 16 in 2009

[gymgirl115694]

no she isn't she is a senior

[elaina96]

did you ever go to the *olpincs*

[saragymnast1]

Shayla Worley has a back/hamstring injury and is petitioning to Trial and now won't make the team most likely! :(

[principeendorfina]

and chelsie memmel ????

[adadancer7]

Mattie Larson too!

[gymgirl115694]

No I think Mattie Larson is still a junior according to the USA Gymnastics website

[adadancer7]

she is 16 though, according to emer8nica who trains with her.

[emer8nica]

she was a junior last year, but mattie is age-eligible this year for the olympics. i'm hoping she makes it.

[gymgirl115694]

oh ok thanx i waz just looking on the usa gymnastics website................ I hope she makes it then too!

[xplosive08]

u should change title to us gymnastics olympics hopefuls

[STARdustPixi]

i can't wait to the olympics!!!! :D
