Love how positive she is. She even had something nice to say about Will Farrell's rhythmic routine
Her old school critique was great.
Will Ferrell should teach classes
That’s because Will Ferrell is the greatest gymnast ever. Obviously.
has there been a figure skater analyzing blades of glory
I love that she said "add more springs" rather than a single comment about the character's weight. What a sweetheart! This video was so positive all around! Thank you Dominique!
I loved that too.
Weight still matters
Honestly at that weight he would have blown out both his knees on impact physics is real and his weight is dangerous to his health.
@@angfirefighter sure but it's an image of that obese person doing the right thing and working it out.
I'm more impressed he pulled it off. Wonder how long he trained for??
So humble for such an ICONIC gymnast. I vividly remember watching her compete in 1996.
She was awesome
Yes, the 1996 Olympic gymnast team was awesome! I remember that!
Yep same! So cool to see her do a break down!
She's barely aged too! Hard to believe she's in her mid-forties.
@@andresvalentin6924 She aged so well - more beautiful now than ever!
Why isn't Dominique Dawes working at the Olympics as a commentator? She and Nastia Liukin can just run the whole show themselves. They both speak so well on tv.
It'd be so nice to have someone so sweet and encouraging doing the commentary. Some of the commentators are so critical.
Yes
Dominique is such an ultimate pro that she was able to recognize that the gymnast/actress in the American Anthem movie was really doing her routine. That was Maria Anz, a collegiate athlete in that era who won the 1984 floor exercise individual Championship for the Florida Gators.
was pretty easy to tell that she did it herself.
The Simone vs herself line makes a lot more sense now.
Yeah, weird to watch her make that comment after what just happened. Not knowing anything about what's really going on you just try to be non-judgmental and assume the best about the athlete trying.
...And she mentioned her own experience of being in her own head & balking in competition .
It would have if Simone had actually competed.
@@scifigrl23 Did u miss the part right after where she said she scored terribly... How would it have helped the team to go on vault and get lost up there again?
On any other gymnasts' best day, they cannot come close to the scores that Simone gets even on her worst day. That's what I meant. It was a compliment, calm down.
Dominique Dawes is a legend. Glad she's doing well.
Dominique is such an incredible and hardworking athlete who still impacts gymnastics in a beautifully positive way. Thank you so much. You are incredible ❤
"As a 44 year old I'm not doing it." Whatever you're doing keep doing it cuz you look incredible.
I would venture to guess it has something to do with strict diet and excersize routines and frequent health check ups, considering shes an olympian. But who knows, maybe its her skincare routine? maybe its maybelline?
She has held her beauty well. Gymnasts tend to hold their beauty if they keep doing it.
I was all of nine but I definitely remember the Olympics of ‘96. I remember seeing Dominique & the team and I remember Kerri performing thru her ankle injury. Tough team!
Do you remember when you were 13 and she was in the 2000 Olympics?
This was one of my favorite videos of this series!! Dominique is so positive, humble, and charismatic. Love her so much!!
I was in love with DD when I was a kid. She was the reason I watched the olympics. She still looks amazing.
Automatically love this!!! But love at the end of the day how professional she is with her Analysis, there’s a lot of love for craft in her. I love that.. sorry for using love so many times but, it is what it is.
“The camera’s dry humping my every move!”
Might be the funniest analogy I’ve heard in some time. 😂😂😂😂☠️
The Vaseline on the teeth trick, my cheer coach when I was little used to make us do that 🙄 The idea was it would make your teeth slippery so it would be easier to smile but all it actually did was make it feel like you had gunk all over your teeth. Ah, the ‘90s.
Probably doesn't taste very good. I can't imagine it being pleasant. It is weird I would've thought it would be to make your teeth shine more then to help you smile. I guess you really do learn something new everyday.
@@BofaDee33 i guess because it tastes so gross you won’t want to close your mouth so you keep smiling
@@jessicasharpe1925 That sounds disgusting and it also sounds like you have some personal experience with it lol.
Dominique is always a beautiful class act. She's so classy!
44? Years?! You look amazing Dominique, I grew up watching you.
She looks all of 44. She looks great, but stop 🙄
@@written2382 ok...
@@written2382 She really doesn’t. I was legitimately shocked when she said that. She looks about 35 at the MOST.
@@VenomHalos oh please you can tell she's over 40
@@headcaptainyamamoto7015 Can I? Hmm, nope, don’t think so.
I’m so happy to see her again! Loved this episode. Love her.
I do remember Kerri Strug. That was very emotional.
Phil, I wasn’t even born for the ‘96 Olympics but watching Kerri Strug go back out and finish her routine on a bad ankle is beyond amazing and inspiring even now. Simone Biles should’ve watched that before deciding to quit on her teammates. She won’t be able to live that decision down. If she needs her pills to compete, to focus, then she shouldn’t even have been going to the Olympics. What I think she should do is not retire, and what she should do instead is come back for 2024 Paris Olympics to erase what happened this time around.
I remember her growing up. I had the biggest crush on her.
Bro I was literally about to type the same comment🤣😂🤣😂🤣💯
Guilty as charged. She still gorgeous and my favorite gymnast/Olympian 😍😉
still do
Who didn't? She's amazing!
She kinda cute for 44😊
The context of that "Stick It" beam routine was important: The gymnasts had decided to flout the rules and traditions of the sport after one of their teammates had been penalized for a visible bra strap, which is why Weiwei was breakdancing instead of doing more typical movies.
True, but she's talking about what will happen in real life but the movie. She's providing context on actual things.
Dominique: No hip hop for music on floor exercise at the olympic games
Simone: haha bet!
That didn't age well.
She did say it might change in the future so...
@@rockymcallister4258 lmao yep, sure didn’t!
She hasn't used hip hop.
@@JennaLeigh three weeks ago during her floor routine she used Tokyo Drift by Teriyaki Boyz which is a j hip hop song...
I remember Dominique Dawes being my idol. I just loved her. So cool to see her now
Allyson Felix and now Dominique Dawes? Loved Dominique Dawes when I was a kid, great to see her and still love her.
I love Dominique Dawes!! I grew up watching her!!
What an absolute delight she is. Charming, polite, warm, and so kind.
Dominique was one my favorite gymnasts when I was young.
In the first clip, you can clearly see the guys in the background trying to not laugh.
Thank you for putting her name in the title 🙌
Dominique Dawes was my original gymnastics idol
"We can learn something for old school" - smoke while cheering on my teammates, got it haha
Great energy. Bring her back for more.
“When I watched that clip where the actor is about to vault it made me think of my two world championships”
Uhhh yeah... me too 😂
I was just distracted by the fact that GQ apparently couldn’t afford the music rights for “Chariots of Fire” during the Old School scene.
Or the actual song Wey Wey did her beam routine to in Stick It. “Come Baby Come”
Dominic has changed so much I didn't recognize her and first I was thinking ok when is she going to walk on? She's still so adorable but I knew her by her voice.
Stick it! is my favorite movie up there with princess diaries. I watched it SOOOOO much growing up. SO HERE FOR THIS!
Same!!!
"I cant pause, I balance all, like I'm Dominique Dawes, AND IM GONE!!" -Janelle Monae
I love Janelle Monae. The epitome of fierce.
I could never forget that moment with Keri Strug
Dominique is such a class act.
She doesn’t age or something ? 😍
I don't know anyone outside of Simone.. I thought she was still competing then she said I won't be doing that at 44 and I was like what?!?
Some women just have that eternal youth potion in their veins. And she's obviously has kept in shape, which helps.
She is so pretty. The DMV breeds beauty and talent for sure.
Do break down soccer (football) movies with Jadon Sancho or mason mount
She’s such an intelligent, informative, interesting woman. I want to watch gymnastics documentaries by her.
She was it back in the day
Awesome Dawesome. !!
She meant Rhythmic when she talked about what men don’t compete in… both men and women compete in Artistic Gymnastics (but with different apparatuses)
What apparatuses do men have for artistic gymnastics?
@@molliemarissa6189 floor, pommel horse, rings, parallel bars, vault, and horizontal bar ☺️
Whereas women have floor, beam, vault, and uneven bars
like this woman very admirable bring her back
Love her, true legend!!!
Dominique!! She was my fave when i was a kid
Much Gratitude.
Old School is one of best movies, ever.
I know something more then a Olympian. Never thought I would be able to say that….. There is men’s rythmic gymnastics. It is very popular in Europe, Russia and Asia just not America and is not internationally recognized yet by the IOC or has much appeal at all in the Americas.
America movie
I always remembered your beautiful smile. You were my favorite! You are So beautiful now just as you were then
Yes!! She did the lost world scene!!!!
Awesome Dawesome!
I learned lots of little somethings in this video. This was a lot of fun. Olympians are amazing people.
She looks amazing
I guess gymnasts hold their beauty well.
She still looks the same.#Magnificent 7
DD was awesome back in the day. Great gymnast.
Oh my gosh! DOMINIQUE DAWES!!! Icon!
Always rooting for Dominique Dawes 👏🏾
I watched and remember the 96 olympics. It was amazing!
Dominique is just delightful to listen to 😊
I'm pretty sure there were some more orchestral versions of hip hop songs or pop songs in the Olympic floor this year
I know it’s not hip hop but I heard bad guy by Billie Eilish and shape of you by Ed Sheeran. It was highly entertaining
I was 1 athlete that enjoyed ice baths haha. After crazy soccer practices in college I'd love an ice bath.
There actually is men’s rhythmic gymnastics-it’s very popular in Japan. It’s just not an Olympic discipline.
Me over here thinking that this was only a thing in an anime series...
One of my favorite athletes. STELLAR!
Dominique! Grew up watching her and wanting to be her. 💕
Awesome Dawesome! Absolute legend!
Wait, no Gymkata? Aw, man. Kurt Thomas (rest his soul) never gets any love.
Came here for this!
15:57 That's totally a reference to Kerry Strug and that 1996 Olympics.
It's not a reference because the movie came out prior to Kerry Strug's injury. The movie came out in the 80s.
She's amazing
Dominique Dawes was a GOAT on those national teams!
I came here looking for the bring it on scene and was not disappointed 😂
What an incredible video!!! Spot on!!
Is Dominique is still awesome!
Icon of my generation. She can breakdown anything and I'm in haha
looks great for 44 .
I swear it sounds like she says "hey JQ" at the beginning lol
you used to get reduction for wedgies? That is absurd. If it got nothing to do with the actions in the sport, then that is some serious flaws in the perception of the sport.
Imagine if football goals partly got judged on how the players shorts looks. Absurd!
I had the "Magnificent Seven" poster on my bedroom wall when I was 13.
Loved this ❤💖♥
Love Dominique!!!
Isn't American Anthem the one where the girl performs to music composed by her cousin instead of the music her coach picked out and that she trained to? I would have thought that was worth mentioning. (Maybe I have the wrong movie.)
🤚🏾remembers the 1996 olympics as a teenager, which makes me a fossil.
Love it!!!
Dominique is so beautiful and sweet!
I remember her I wanted to be her and Dominic moceano
Just to clarify, in that scene on the balance beam in Stick It, the music is in her earphones first and then I think she imagines it in this scene 😊
Dominique you better come on with that Benjamin Button aging! You look good girl!
Love Dominique, but I guess that she has not seen the whole movie American Anthem. If I recall correctly, the athlete was performing with a bad knee which is why she kept falling. I know that I have seen that movie several times because that was my era and we all loved us some Mitch Gaylord lol, but it's been a long time since I last saw it.
I need to re-watch Old School.
I have to correct about the rhythmic gymnastics thing. In rhythmic gymnastics your aren’t allowed to to acrobatic stuff such as backhand spring, back flip etc. you rather do a cartwheel, walkovers stuff like that but no tumbling
0:10 she meant to say *rhythmic* gymnastics
Also, rhythmic gymnastics for men is a big thing in japan and it`s amazing. I once saw a group of them live but you can see a lot of different routines on youtube, too. However, they do normally not use ribbons etc. as far as I know.
@@AM-dl4gu The Spanish school uses the same props as the women, the Japanese does not.
I understand that gymnasts need to show excitement, smile and all that, but is that a requirement for male gymnasts too or is it only for female ones? 🤔
Male gymnasts need to show toughness, rough exterior, and immense strength. They both have their ups and downs, just like I know some guys who don't like to be macho.
No, men just clench their fists and do a lion roar after their routines.
when i seen cheerleading movie i was suprised ahaha
Man, this lady seems powerful
I think it would be awesome if men would also do rhythmic artistics
And what about gymnastics competitions under spot lights that’s always drove me nuts to see that in movies and tv shows.
pretty sure it's the same as Figure Skating where it doesn't happen in Real life competition since the darkness makes it hard to see where you're landing. It's done sometimes in exhibitions or shows where gymnasts will do less risky moves so they're less likely to injure themselves. I guess they do it in movies to make it more dramatic.
As a kid, the longwise vault for boys scared the crap on me
You know? We should have artistic men's gymnastics. I'd kill to watch them do little ribbon dances
She misspoke when she said that was Artistic Gymnastics. What Will Ferrell's doing in that scene is Rhythmic Gymnastics. She corrected it shortly after that when she said the difference between Rhythmic Gymnastics and Artistic Gymnastics is...
