Gymnast Danell Leyva made good on Team USA’s promise to perform shirtless at the Rio Olympics on Thursday, stopping in the middle of a parallel bar routine to pull down his uniform and give the people what they want— more skin!
Leyva’s teammate Sam Mikulak told The Wall Street Journal last week that the team was considering performing shirtless to gain the kind of major attention the women’s gymnastics teams get.
Leyva’s striptease was part of an impromptu routine for the crowd between events and unfortunately not for a competition. However it’s good to see the crowd was loving the peep show, so we can make sure shirtless gymnastics are something required for Tokyo 2020.
Leyva also made headlines this week for making a profound and heartwarming statement in support of the LGBT community.
“The love within the LGBT community is so much stronger than the hatred against it,” he said in a video on Instagram. “And it is our responsibility as non-LGBT people to help emulate this love and create a world where LGBT people don’t need to create their own safe spaces.”
