McKayla Mulroney is a champion in every sense of the word. Making it to the London Olympics as a member of the American gymnastics team underlines that. Then, you have the medals she won, one of them being team gold.
Wow. Gymnastics is not a sport for the fly-by-nights or the weak of mind.
McKayla has gone viral, too. Her understandable disappointment at barely missing out on gold in vault (an event that she excels at) was clear at the medal presentation; she kept it together, and kept it in perspective when interviewed, but her image is everywhere in ways reminiscent of Lil’ Mama.
You see, McKayla is not impressed, and has a Tumblr-site dedicated to show her displeasure with a wide variety of photoshopped events and locations, including the Mars landing and The Great Wall. The Avengers, other gold medalists and even NBC are not spared from her scowl.
For the record, I’m not mad at her. This is something to be said for a young athlete bummed out at not being the best.
What do you think?

My favorite by far is the shot Mckayla herself posted via Instagram.

I love that she’s able to joke about it.
