Twenty-one-year-old Alicia Sacramone, who became a fan favorite at the Olympics for her "never give up" mentality that came after falling in both the beam and floor competition for Team USA, has been in talks with MTV, Bravo, A&E and Style for a television show about her fashion sense.

Lou Reda Productions is working with Sacramone and said they were "very intrigued by Alicia during the Olympics and thought she'd be great on TV." I'm assuming that this is because she's so talented and seemed to enjoy herself in Beijing even during the tough times. Or, it's because she's hot. Yep, probably the second one.
You know those television previews that come on basic cable when you're watching Sunday Night Football or something and thinking to yourself, "There is no way I'd watch that show unless I was in a torture chamber with my toes hooked up to electrical sockets in a bathtub, and they said they'd either turn them on or force me to watch 'Cavemen?'For her reel, Sacramone - who designed all her costumes for the Summer Olympics - treated 13-year-old Sarah DiNatale of Needham to a makeover.
First off, the gals had a breakfast of champions at Sonsie. Then it was hair and makeup lessons at Salon Persona, where the gymnast's mom, Gail, works. After that, they hit H & M, where Alicia whipped together a rock-star outfit for Sarah for under $100.
Well, I almost guarantee that this is not one of those shows. Sacramone is a pretty, young Olympian who seems to have a lot of ambition and is obviously talented in more than just the back-flip kinda way.
I mean, a rock-star outfit for under $100? I couldn't even get high heels and a set of cute earrings for that much!

We'll also get to laugh because the 10 year old girls she is designing for are 6 inches taller than her!

Completely hot.
Alicia is my favorite gymnast, despite the thick neck... and not just because of the cute name.

Did you really write that she's hot?????? She's a squatty little runt just like the majority of those gymnasts. Thick from top to bottom, no figure, nothing to look at. It's ashame more gymnasts don't have the stature and grace of Nastia Liukin. She's much more pleasing to watch, almost balletic. Too bad she doesn't mix in a smile every now and then......can't be perfect, I guess.

Sacramone choked twice! Lost the gold for the USA.
She should not have been on the team.
If anyone should be in Hollywood it is Shayla Worley.
Shayla Worley is extremely talented and capable of being the next Angelina Jolie.

Um, first of all, you have no idea what you're talking about. Not to be confrontational or anything, but before you post, PLEASE research the facts! Alicia did fall twice, yes, but it was extensively proven by many people through adding the scores together that the Chinese still would have won the gold even without her mistakes. Look it up. And even if that weren't true and she did cost the team the medal, why would you feel the need to harp on it? She deserved to be on the team and proved herself over the years - she narrowly missed in 2004, and instead of giving up she worked hard the past 4 years to accomplish her dream.
And I love Shayla too, but the next Angelina Jolie? I'm not sure where you're getting that comparison...

Omg some of you people are such pervs. That is not things you so about someone so young. How would you like someone saying that about your daughter(s). Get a life and grow up she is young and has a right to make a mistake. China should not have one either for all their falls. The are under review about the ages of their girls anyway so why does that even come up.

Calling a 21 year old hot is perverted? Really? At what age is it appropriate to say a female is attractive? 50? 60?

There is nothing appealing about this witch. Watch 2007 world floor finals for proof. She has no class and is a sore loser

yeah, 21 year old gymnasts aren't common - Kristy must have been making an assumption about her being a teenager. She is f---king hot.

This is to Steve. I was not talking about them just calling her hot I was really refering to gofaqurselfndie. Yes she is still a little bit young for people to be saying some of the things they do. I was once a 21 yr-old young woman. So what if people think that she is hot not everyone in the country should have to post it on a site. If that is what she wants to do is to go into television that is for her to decide not the country. Yes it is perverted for people to write it on a site that she is most likely reading and for her all she can do is think do they really think I am only good for my looks. That is not what young women should think of themselves.

Alicia is beautiful, has a great body and best of has probably the worlds awesomest personality. Have you heard this girl speak? Maybe the cutest, bubbly fun attitude of all time! And one of those people who looks even better because of the constant smile/smirk she has goin on. Love her. Wish I could date her. Sadly I dont live in Boston.

If Michael Phelps didn't tap that in Beijing, I don't know if I can respect him.

Lets not forget she Chocked and cost the US girls team a higher medal. She had the experiance over the other girls. She should have hit her routines when is mattered. I wish her luck, but lets not set her up like she was the did it all and her teammates let her down.
