Gold Medalist Nadia Liukin: 'I Like 'Gossip Girl' & 'The Hills'

By Whitney Frink & Jeremy Blacklow BEIJING, China -- Nastia's mother, Anna Liukin, learned the news about her daughter's gold medal in the women's gymnastics individual all-around - in a text - because she was too nervous to attend the event. Fitting, perhaps, for a young 18-year-old, whose favorite show on TV is "Gossip Girl." She says her favorite character is Nate (Chace Crawford). She also likes 'The Hills,' and says that she's a bigger fan of LC than of Heidi. Before the competition, Anna sent Nastia a text message, saying "Stay Focused And Have Fun! Text Me When You Done. Love You." The rest of their text conversation... inside. (link)
