Alysa Liu shocked fans
A Winter Olympian has stunned fans with her X-rated celebration after claiming the gold medal on Thursday evening.
Alysa Liu had jetted to Italy as one of the favourites to claim the gold medal in the women’s figure skating – she had already conquered the team event earlier in the games. Liu, 20, would win gold with her free skate routine, climbing from third after the short program.
However, as she left the ice, Liu stunned fans with her X-rated celebration, leaning into the camera and yelling: “That’s what I’m f****** talking about!” She then turned to the crowd once more and yelled: “Yes!”

“Alysa Liu being the first woke alt baddie to win an Olympic gold medalist… THAT’S how you make America great again,” one fan joked.
“Alysa Liu swearing live on tv,” a second said. While a third shared: “Not the swearing…Never change Alysa!”
And another added: “Alysa Liu is the coolest person alive tbh!”

Liu, once she had composed herself, told reporters: “My family is out there, my friends are out there. I had to put on a show for them.
“When I see other people smiling, because I see them in the audience, I have to smile, too. I have no poker face.”
Liu had been at the last games, which was overshadowed by Kamila Valieva’s doping controversy, where she competed as a 16-year-old. However, after the games, she decided to step away from the sport.
She explained: “I was so into skating that I really didn’t do much else. Skating takes up your whole life, almost.
“I don’t know if other people kind of feel the same when they look back at certain parts of their life, but for me, it’s definitely a blur, because it kind of meshes together, you know – going to the rink, going home, competing.”
