Nastia Liukin to appear on 'Gossip Girl'

October 15, 2008 |  2:33 pm

Nastia_2 All that gossip about gymnast Nastia Liukin, the all-around gold medalist, appearing on "Gossip Girl" turned out not to be mere gossip at all.

After a chance meeting with the show's producers, she was asked to make an appearance on the popular show. She says it's one of the coolest things that's come her way since she won the Olympic gold medal in Beijing.

Yesterday, she was honored as the Women's Sports Foundation's Sportswoman of the Year for 2008.

It seems like he's off to a faster start on the Mary Lou Retton track than Carly Patterson was after winning the all-around title at the Athens Olympics.
