Olympian and it boy of the moment, Adam Rippon, has been doing the talk show circuit and he just sat down with the Huffington Post‘s Noah Michaelson for Build NYC. They chatted about lots of topics including glasses versus contacts and who HIS role model was growing up. (Spoiler alert; It’s Ellen.)
Michaelson posted on Facebook,
“Today Adam Rippon chatted with me about that Oscar harness that launched a million tweets, how he feels about being labeled ‘our first nationally recognized and respected faggot‘ and a bunch more. I found him incredibly genuine, a total sweetheart and to top it all off (and there is absolutely nothing humble about the following brag) after our chat he told me how ‘incredible” my body is –which, coming from an Olympian, isn’t too shabby of a compliment for this old guy.”
Watch.
