Jordyn Wieber Talks the Olympics and One Direction

The 2012 Summer Olympics are in full swing, and with a lot of young athletes competing, people want to know what they’re like when not in full Olympian mode!

US Gymnast Jordyn Wieber recently sat down with J-14, and talked about how she’s been performing for almost her entire life.  It’s been a long road from a recreational gymnastics class to competing in London at the Olympics several years later, but deep down, Jordyn is just a normal girl at heart.  She told J-14 that she’s a big fan of One Direction, and like every girl out there, she has her faves!

Once all is said and done, and the dust has settled for the 2012 Summer Games, Jordyn still has something to look forward to.  One Direction has been reported to be closing for the Olympics this year, and it only makes sense.  Who else would you pick to close out in London this year?  With over a week left, there’s still a ton of excitement to be had in the games.  Make sure you stick with Fanlala for all of your Olympic highlights!

We’re very impressed with Jordyn making it so far at such a young age.  Keep up the awesome work, girl!
