I'm the first and the only, since 2004, you're looking at Team USA for rhythm gymnastics right here. It's only me. I try to create a story that helps, you know, tells the story to the audience through the music. I'm one of those big performers, so I really try to get into my music and try to portray some kind of story. You have to really be able to express it, with not just your face but your body. You know, we have a lot of choreography in our routines and it's not just elements you know, we also have dance sequences and stuff like that. There's not many sports out there like that. A lot of there, a lot of the sports out there are racing against a clock or you know, against somebody else in particular, or something like that. But, you know, we're performing, and it's very much performance- based. In a way you have to kinda be like an actress on the floor, if you wanna sell yourself. So, I think it's very cool and very unique. Our sport was created by all the former Soviet Union countries, and they still dominate our sport. A lot the time, people are like, oh my god, are you gonna, like, totally wreck it over there in London? And I'm like, well yeah, I'm gonna wreck it. But, you know, I'm not, I'm not, having like an exact gold medal on my mind, I'm just trying to do well for my country, you know?
