2012 US women's gymnastics team on Today Show | London 2012

[@hydroflask8992]

In all of these interviews, Gabby is always at the very end. She should be front and center; she contributed the most points and the highest scores throughout the final. She was the MVP

[@RebelAngel036]

The FIERCE Five Gabby: The Dreamer McKayla: The Specialist Aly: The Leader Jordyn: The Fighter Kyla: The Rookie

[@burnbrighter13]

Mckayla is so pretty!

[@liukin95]

In London the girls won 5 medals (Yes the team title counts as 1), in Beijing the girls won 8. And yes I agree with you!

[@tekkenfan01]

Actually all their names have a Y if they shorten them. Aly, Jordyn, Gabby, McKayla and Kyla. But if not then it's Alexandra and Gabrielle.

[@speedofpee]

@SA dizy actually, bridget sloan and samantha peszek were also 16 during the 2008 olympics. bridget sloan is younger than shawn by a few months

[@sadizy9478]

The girls on the 2008 team were older at the time they competed in the Olympics. Most of them were 18-20 with Shawn Johnson being the youngest at 16. Aly was the oldest of the 2012 team at 18 and the others were 17 16 and 15 at the time.

I just find them so amazing! I mean literally the things they do are just jaw dropping! Look at the other sports; I can shoot a basketball I can run a mile I can jump hurdles I can swim laps I can dive I can hit a volleyball I can kick a soccer ball Yet obviously all the athletes in those sports can do that better than I can; But if I ever tried to do any of that I would probably shatter my back. It gets me every time I see the video of them on the podium and the U.S.A. Anthem Playing!!

[@lillylienxo]

kyla is so gorgeous !!

[@matthewkretschmer7010]

They good friends together with their gold medals and then with their families.

[@stephanie3848]

I can see how the camera quality has improved even since then

[@xkhhusm2010]

Even if Russia hadn't made their mistakes, we still would have won.

[@alext8020]

Honey, YOU didn't win anything. THEY did.

[@westley5735]

@@alext8020I’m crying clock that

[@liukin95]

I live in the UK! You should see it on the today shows website! I'd upload it but I am having problems with my software at the moment.

[@shoubenacadie]

Can you upload the interview Nastia did with the five of them? :-) I live outside the US so I can't view it on NBC's website. Thanks so much!

[@liukin95]

I care about men's gymnastics actually! along with a lot of other people! In fact men's gymnastics has been around longer than woman's gymnastics!!

[@jbandgymnastics]

actually Bridget Sloan was the youngest, both 16 birthday in January and Bridget's in June

[@feltonswhore]

Kyla is such a cutie pie!

[@sadizy9478]

Diving would be pretty tough too.

[@Brenath0304]

I love them!!, seems like there very are nice! :) I just wanna cry every time that i see they :'D

[@csmithbhm80]

LOVE THESE GIRLS!!! ... having said that... I wish they didn't seem soo rehearsed in interviews.. i believe the public would connect soo much more with them if they were just fun crazy teens spilling their guts and sharing their hearts in the most un-rehearsed, real way they could. think about it... if u were world champs after waiting since 96... you wouldn't be soo robotic and everything soo "amazing" and "like definitely awesome" lol. none the less... i enjoy and support them

[@3748359]

@soledadferrer if u actually listened to the interview you can clearly hear Marooney correct the woman by saying any vault named after her should be her own made up vault so there was no disrespect on Marooneys behalf ....gosh listen before you speak!

[@lovely8888888]

I believe that there was a strong team component with this team. There did not appear to be cliques, the focus was the team.

[@tekkenfan01]

i m sure they can speak a little but they wouldn't go on this show because it's all US, the US would still go on the show if they got silver or bronze, Russia have their own TV network and broadcasters

[@humptybum]

you are correct.....

[@tekkenfan01]

heck yeah, where else would you get that?

[@marcosmandez8792]

We got this in the bag

[@chrishughes337]

USA!!!

[@100DOLLAMAN]

Women really dominated this Olympics.

[@pacandpac9487]

when I realized that in the london 2012 olympic would not engage girls 2008 Beijing team, I immediately got very sad because for me it was so cute to see them compete in Beijing was something unique just great and my team was better Beijing Olympic because those girls had more experience, more charisma and are very talented. though girls London 2012 team won more medals was not as nice as the previous team. but that if I never forget a prettier team of all time, the 2008 Beijing team.

[@3SwaggKing]

In every interview all they say is "definitly"

[@tekkenfan01]

how cow i never noticed that, i wonder if they do as well

[@RAMKING61]

Interesting aspect to three of the girls names: mckAYLa, ALY, kYLA.

[@jkmycko1]

I think they are also trying to keep things toned down since they still had to compete in the days following this interview. They didn't want to sound like bad sports to other people watching by sounding like they are bragging or anything.

[@humptybum]

we will never know now.....

[@wwesonyfan]

It is a real question.

[@ThePinkybaby22]

McKayla Maroney is just too cute!!!

[@Pottermorphmagus]

But that's part of the competition dear; being able to stick your landings. And by the time you fall around as many times as the Russians did, there is really no excuse...

[@foresthart5599]

They are the fierce five then to go on and stand up to the sexual abuser in court. Amazing young women.

[@liukin95]

Why does that matter may I ask?

[@MingRoseC]

Except the Women's Gymnastics team.

[@Brad51896]

kayla was like ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[@RAMKING61]

True.

[@TheJustinroots]

Thats not true,Aliya can speak

[@aarulf]

Why would they be on a US show?

[@yozh5836]

Why Biles wasn’t on a team? She didn’t want?

[@liukin95]

Biles wasn't age eligible for 2012, didn't turn senior until 2013.

[@liukin95]

Well that would be their problem not the gymnasts problem.

[@yankeesteelerfan4313]

Jordyn Wieber

[@kartunamak2921]

kyla was really short at 16

[@moljc25]

i can say everything i want , it's free

[@shoubenacadie]

Oh. lol Thanks anyway!

[@moljc25]

is it real question or you missed news?

[@aarulf]

they wouldn't have been on an American show

[@groud123456]

Imagine if Russia team was the winner. Not any single of them can speak bloody English

[@celinehoang8634]

That guy could never win a gold.

[@staceywennerlund7434]

Usa!

[@liukin95]

Now that was a waste of breath!

[@moljc25]

you know i'm right!!

[@moljc25]

they promised us the best of her, she is described like invicible have you seen something like that? no oh,yeah, she had stress, for sure

[@aarulf]

By the way China won the team gold in the Beijing Olympics and they WERE NOT on any American shows

[@tekkenfan01]

no

[@missaggsj]

Gabby looks so arrogant to me, not just in this video, but i watched her in every competition. I hope the failure on beam will make her more humble.

[@moljc25]

so go away

[@moljc25]

the fab five gabby : the mud-slinger mckayla:the show-off aly: the robot jordyn: the faker kyla: the unknown

[@kewelgirl]

gabby douglas is so awkward..."i saw bambambam i was just so confident." i love mckayla and jordyn though. but the 2008 girls were more classy and definitely more eloquent

[@moljc25]

five? sure fierce? absolutly no
