McKayla Maroney

McKayla Maroney is among the most successful young gymnasts in America, with over seven gold and silver medals won throughout her career. Having started gymnastics at the age of two, her parents saw it wise to enroll her for training, and by the time she was nine, McKayla was already training for the sport.

That decision paid off, as she went on to bring home a gold medal in the 2012 London Olympics. Although now retired, Maroney is still in the limelight, using her beauty and voice to charm the masses, having recently released the single Wake Up Call and has also starred in several television shows.
