Olympic Star Lolo Jones & Her Biggest Fan

Green Room Skype Chat

Lolo shares her new Olympic love, says how she overcame her own hurdles and gets in a friendly fight with her #1 fan.

Here at Katie, we love all of our Tweeters, Pinners, FB Like–rs (#etc), but on the eve of our culture of cruelty show, a particularly nice couple Tweets from @93bperez (or as she’s known in real life, Brittny Perez) about our guest Lolo Jones gave us a good idea. We let the Katie Social Wall take a day off to Skype in the University of Florida sophomore to interview her role model, Olympian Lolo Jones.

Brittny asked Lolo about her workout secrets, her faith, fellow Olympians and even the surprising admission about Lolo’s off-season Olympic pastime. Here’s a hint: you just might see the hurdler in a different sport in two years!

Keep Tweeting us (nice things, please) @KatieShow and find our host @KatieCouric!

Update: Since Lolo’s visit to Katie, she was one of 24 athletes chosen to be on the U.S. bobsled team, just three weeks after trying the sport for the very first time! Go Lolo!! P.S. You heard it here first! Click her to find out more.
