    I don't know if Aly has a stylist or she styles herself, but this outfit was a complete slay.

    Aly... 1 of the most consistantly reliable gymnasts... solid routines with above average scores... 👏👏🏽👏🏼🙌
  • @joshfredamusic
    This is one of the best interviews, from both sides, I’ve seen in a long time. Well done BBC.
  • @MrStuartm72
    She is world class in every sense. A leader and a champion for so many causes. I love hearing her speak even more than I love watching her gymnastics (which is a lot :) )
  • @extraicegirl
    Aly Raisman is the US's most underrated gymnasts. She has 6 Olympic medals (7 if they didn't have tie breakers). Only 1 less than what Simone Biles and Shannon Miller currently have.
  • @ErinConfidential
    Aly’s floor is one of my favourites of all time. Especially the Rio performances. So reliable, and so talented. I miss her gymnastics.
  • @Garmonbozia-nc7mm
    Olympics start in 2 weeks and I’m already getting Olympic fever
  • @franss7554
    I love her so much, as a an elite gymnast and as a person. She’s very eloquent with her words and always has that so very positive aura about her. I so can see her be in the top position/board of organizations overseeing USA’s Women’s Artistic Gymnastics.. I can see her be such an amazing leader. Also, I love this interviewer, she lets Aly get all her answers out, it’s so lovely seeing her talk about her 2012 Olympics experience, you can see her reliving the memory as she’s describing it. ❤❤❤❤❤

    I adore Aly Raisman, for so many reasons. Such a beautiful and articulate woman. One of my all time favourite gymnasts and when I met her in Glasgow in 2015, despite being in my 30’s the little girl inside me got so excited!
  • @derekwise8243
    It’s nice hearing her perspective on her success, she’s well spoken.
  • @gingocampo925
    I love the last part for her. To be able to talk about her feelings apart of Gymnastic must have been a great outlet for her ❤
  • @user-kk9hp6sf3t
    She is so gorgeous & dignified. I know the issues she has with USA gymnastics, but I would love for her to take a leadership role for USA gymnastics. Reallly big fan of hers
  • @zaiyaun7
    This was a solid interview between Kathy Kay, a quality reporter and a gymnastics phenom, Aly Raisman, 6 x medallist over 2 olympics. Substance, depth and emotion intertwine in compelling dialogue of the athletic journey of this exceptional woman and life after the Olympics. Thanks for sharing.
  • As one of millions of sexual abuse survivors myself, it please my soul so much to see people being so open about their own experiences. Trauma is such a difficult thing and I'm so glad their is so much more understanding these days!
  • @ShelleeGraham
    Great 👍 interview with the wonderful Alexandra “Aly” Raisman. So nice to see a recent interview with her.
  • @Taureanfitness
    I love Aly! Shes 1 of the best Olympic gymnasts ever! But shes also so poised, graceful, mature, intelligent, honest, sincere, positive, & well spoken. She reminds me of Queen Elizabeth because she was so diplomatic.She never got involved with politics or drama.In any way and I think people respect her for that.
  • @leahvatson6379
    What a lovely interview! So many unique questions and Aly is just a super star ⭐️ so wise and eloquent, I could listen to her forever ❤
