## Transcript

[ APPLAUSE ] Hey, everybody. Wow, who knew all it took to make it onto Time 100, was making it to the Olympics and calling yourself trashy a few times. Tonight has been an absolutely incredible experience for me, I can not even believe that I've been here And maybe my success seems like it's come overnight. But it's come from a lot of ups and downs and a lot of struggles that I've pushed myself through. And the person that inspires me is here with me tonight. It's my mom. [ APPLAUSE ] So, why I think my mom is so incredible, is because she has told me along with her other children that they are champions.

That they are a genius. [ LAUGH ] That they are braver than they think, and that they are stronger than they know. And so, I would like to raise a glass tonight to my mom and to all the moms out there who have helped their kids realize their true potential I'm really able to be who I am very effortlessly. I met Nicole Kidman earlier tonight and she even let me smell her husband. [ LAUGH ] [ LAUGH ] If it wasn't for the words that my mom told me, never give up on your dreams- [ APPLAUSE ] I would never have had Had that experience. [ LAUGH ] So mom, thank you so much. And on a serious note, I love you from the bottom of my heart.

[ APPLAUSE ]
