Shawn Johnson is beautiful and is 16yo same age as me! She should have won Gold but (argh) dunno what happened. Still amazing gymnast<3
The US owned volleyball and we won twice in a row! Misty Mays butt is HUGE!
I was gay for Michael Phelps like the rest of America and saw him own in most of his races. .001 ftw!

Done!

Well Shawn Johnson did win one gold medal.

Shawn Johnson finally got the gold medal she came to Beijing for in the balance beam on Tuesday.

"I finished off the Olympic Games with, to me, the most perfect ending ever," Johnson said, beaming as she tugged at the ribbon around her neck. "To finally get the gold medal ... on my very last routine meant the world to me.""
