I love Nastia!! but i think i do agree with lowemamma, she is a great rolemodel, but for a teen girl look, i dont think she has the glamour! but she is a very cute girl.

I think when the writer says, “A coveted gold” what they really mean is “THE” coveted gold of the All Around Olympic Champion!

Nastia Liukin is THE OLYMPIC CHAMPION!
