Nastia Liukin on The View - 9/9/08

[@martingulbrandsen]

She seems sooo sweet and well-mannered:) I love her!

[@liina000]

i love how she has to bring her medals everywhere. haah, love this girl. go nastia!

[@98gleefan]

Nastia is probably my favorite gymnast of all time and I'm so sad she isn't going to compete in London :(

[@TheAdzyPadzy]

OMG....VALERI's accent is amazing.... i can't believe after being in america for like 16 years his accent would have decreased.. but it's so strong!

[@young101]

man she's such a good role model for kids which sometimes can be hard to find now adays

[@Joccy101]

I love her personality!

[@RobertJohnson-hx7bk]

I still gotta tip my hat to Shawn!!

[@MingRoseC]

Yeah, they both deserved the attention. I think maybe Shawn Johnson got a little bit more b/c in interviews she does this nervous laugh/giggle that everyone loves.

[@littleapeman]

amazing just amazing nastia is the best

[@kyle02ish]

i think one factor is the fact that shawn won AA before the olympics. so even before the 2008 olympics people knew her already.

[@happygirliesmartie]

I LUVED IT WHEN SHE DID THE VAULT! look at the landing...

[@oliviaroseeeeeeee]

the reason why shawn got attention was beacuse her degree of difficutly was higher and she was only 16. although that doesnt take away the fact that Nastia is an amazing gymanst and she did deserve the gold but shawn deserved her's aswell.

[@gymnast7225]

She's looking just like her mom! She's amazing. I prefer her way more rather than Shawn. Nothing intended towards her, but you can tell Nastia is the one who really loves it.

[@Abrocrombie2012]

She is gorgeous

[@matthewkretschmer7010]

Indeed

[@kskglovesschool]

awesome!

[@Vanessa3485]

I love her dress!!!!!!!!!!!

[@matthewkretschmer7010]

Same herre.

[@brooke9425]

oh! thanks!

[@Ionan89]

Her dad was born in Kazakhstan and both she and her mom were born in Moscow.

[@brooke9425]

What's that song at the beginnig? Supergirl something? Does anyone know the real title and singer? Thanks.

[@outtaven]

lolol wtvs u guys say, I'm still loving her theme song, Supergirl! =D

[@todosobretodo]

Whoopi loved that vault!!

[@angelintampa]

her dad is from uzbekistan and her mom is from ukraine. she was born in moscow.

[@ruirox21]

What's the song that's playing when she's walking out?

[@redhairmarimo]

@Slinky1213 really? You never knew that? Liukin isn't an american name.

[@edwardismyhomie]

ohhhh thats why she has alot of like dance and grace is her routines cuz her mom is in rhythmic gymnastics

[@marieked]

@Slinky1213 well, she is American now. Was born in Russia, her parents are from there.

[@Fuzion180]

Go Nastia! :D she is so pretty, lol she tried to sleep in a leotard and if she woke up she was like aaahh! how cute lol (she has nice legs)

[@GymMich]

i completely agree

[@BoeingRules]

"Midget" and "Poker Face" will go down in history as America's first and best gymnastics dynamic duo. PS: midget is Shawn and poker face is Nastia, their nicknames that I gave them during the Olympics.

[@3Silence]

@TheAdzyPadzy Well of course it is! Your accent does not change when you move somewhere after like six months. You have to realize English in not his first language and they didn't just teach English in the USSR. Hes's gonna have the accent for the rest of his life and there is nothing wrong about that. There are manny immingrants in the USA.

[@khmergirl97]

Lol, nope, she said it when she was in an interview with Shawn Johnson.

[@MingRoseC]

I thought since then she's grown to 5'1?

[@wb1]

She's shorter, but you have to realize that Shawn is standing about 6 feet behind her, so the perspective is playing games with you. Nastia is actually 5'3" and Shawn is 4"10", which means that there's only 5" difference between them.

[@Fliptwisttt245]

she looks older than 18

[@Letissiaskatetapes24]

If Shawn were better she would have won the all-around.

[@kittycatsrule86]

no he ment he didnt push her to start gymnastics

[@laughandlove2]

Valeri has two golds, haha... maybe she just means he didn't get gold in the AA?

[@c4987]

Barbra's belt is so shiny

[@TheDigit23]

seven people came to this video by accident and apparently they didn't like gymnastics! :)

[@infernoflames98]

@Slinky1213 she was born in Russia

[@uber418]

@satniteshow NO SHE ISN'T. :)

[@artyowen92]

I don't remember her name, coz I'm from the uk, but that old woman is so frustrating when she basically insinuates something that nastias worked so hard for was because her parents forced her into it. And that he was disappointed with "getting a silver not the gold".. HELLO, its an olympic silver medal thats pretty satisfying if you ask me. She's so ignorant.

[@khmergirl97]

Haha, awesome! :D

[@angelintampa]

she's Ukrainian and Uzbekistani

[@ProximoW]

Does Nastia Liukin really sonds better than Anastasija Lukina (Анастасия Лукина - her real name) =) kind of lol She's a russian girl no matter what

[@Billabong0110]

Louis Vuitton should consider giving her a purse for her medals.

[@uber418]

@satniteshow yeah, it's so sad that i moved my eyes 2 inches down the page to see your previous comment. haha and i love how you completed ignored my previous comment because you know it's true.

[@fireboltin]

@TheAdzyPadzy If you immigrate to another country that has a different language/accent after you are 12, you won't lose it. Look at Jackie Chan xD His accent is still strong :P

[@macjacmccoy10]

i would disagree with that, i think nastia actually got a little more attention

[@Jude74]

cute

[@khmergirl97]

She's only 5'3 lol, and Shawn Johnson is 4'11.

[@iLY0X8]

lol her dad has a really funny accent

[@BarsQUEEN16]

Shawn has a more bubbly personality and is more fun. To me, Nastia comes off really rigid and boring.

[@rockymcduffie8603]

She's literally 19 years old in this interview. Were you confident on national television when you were 19? She's an Olympic gold medalist, she doesn't have to be bubbly. She still has the Olympic AA gold.

[@laurah5864]

your about to join some really famous people mary lou retton carly paterson the magnificent 7 your in the box of wheats. omg i was laughing so hard

[@ilizashlesingerrocks]

that was funny when she was like GAHHH

[@MapleStoryGrl]

its her theme song lol

[@epmx27]

funny because she did. my sisters been in the gymnastics buisness forever and she judges a lot of meets.

[@kittycatsrule86]

lol i bought that weaties box!!!

[@uber418]

@satniteshow First, enough with the caps lock. Second, obviously I'm giving my opinion as well as we can agree to disagree. Third, "little baby"? Really?

[@beccabonz626]

shawn won a gold too

[@myekay1192]

lol! i say that too! :D

[@MingRoseC]

yay then she's still my height! :)

[@callanfridgen]

i agree shawn did do better, i compared shawn's floor routine to nastia's and shawn most definitately did better, and if shawn went before nastia shawn would've won. shawn deserved that title.

[@wiscovirgo]

Shawn may have had the better floor routine but she didn’t do better on everything else. Nastia is a MASTER on bars and once they got to uneven bars, that’s when Shawn fell far behind and just couldn’t catch up because nastia’s score was just too high.

[@uber418]

that's okay. the russians and claim her. shawn johnson is pure american and she's better, so we'll claim her :)

[@callanfridgen]

not at all.

[@yiudiumui]

i don't like nastia's fashion choices...that's tacky babe

[@beccabonz626]

shawn johnson is better!
