Dade Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Natalie Coughlin PROFESSION: Olympic Swimming Gold Medalist BACKGROUND: There are plenty of medals adorning this Olympic swimmer's mantle.

She won a medal in every single Olympic event that she ever entered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElleNaturelle Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 She's a swimmer though, not a gymnist. Her athletic ability will help her to keep up, but it likely won't help her learn a move any easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uvp Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 very good high 8 seem like a natural out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LenRay Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Does this mean she can't compete in any more Olympics? She might be better in an Aqua Ballet. But should last into mid season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erinjs Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 She is very pretty! Prettier than the model with Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misha Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 This one has potential. If she does like previous Olympic winners and greatly improves over weeks, she'll do very well. Is it wrong to NOT want yet another Olympic athlete to win the competition this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LenRay Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 IDK. She is a great athlete. But I keep thinking what Louis B. Mayer if MGM used to say about his swimming star, Esther Williams, "Wet she's a star...dry, she ain't!!!!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misha Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 I would agree with you normally Len, except that she's also a very beautiful young lady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SugarB Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 I liked watching her, she is gorgeous. I agree with that middle new judge - she did better in the second half of the dance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SugarB Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 That was hot. Great chemistry between the two. I know nothing about this dance so I have no idea if it is great or just good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

curt886 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Natalie is doing very well lately. She is a dark horse for me in this competition. What was wrong with her and alec last week. they looked as if they hated each other? anybody know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SugarB Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 She could have been a little sharper, but I thought the judges were a little harsh. And Carrie Ann being the lift Nazi get SO old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 I am pissed that she is eliminated. She was not my favorite but she was a good dancer. They keep some of these other knuckleheads instead. ugggg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SugarB Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Me too Marty. I liked her, and could see improvement. She was far better than a couple of others that are still there. And now that hottie Alec is gone too - NOT FAIR!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
