what a douchebag...real stars do not need gimmicks. Guys in the 80's thought their mullets were cool, too. ryan is going to wake up ten years from now and look at his shining moment on the podium ...see that photo and regret his grill. hopefully he will win more medals and ditch the stupidity and be himself as a grown up.

Stop hating at least he has talent unlike you haters guess what studies show that people who hate on people mostly hate on them cuz they're self concious and insecure you haters are basically making him your target just cuz you don't feel good about yourselves and he's actually very nice and listening to rap and hip-hop and wearing a grill doesn't make you a thug plenty of wealthy people have worn grills cuz they are historically a symbol of status and wealth

maybe i should step in this. Whites were the first with gold teeth ask the Russians. It's an accessory like a watch or a chain and bracelet.

I am not here to make this a race issue.

My question to you is Why do you see Mr. Lochte as a thug or childish because of his grills?
