Stephen Nedoroscik, the bespectacled Rubik’s Cube whiz who stole American hearts with his pommel horse heroics at the Paris Olympics, is going to compete on Dancing With the Stars.
The 25-year-old confirmed his participation in season 33 of the show on Thursday morning during an appearance on Good Morning America. Asked if he’d bring some of his gymnastics moves to the dance floor, Nedoroscik said: “I want to bring some of that gymnastics, maybe a backflip or a handstand. I want to have fun with it.”
Nedoroscik became an overnight viral sensation at the Paris Games thanks in part to his pommel horse performance, which helped Team USA take bronze, its first medal in gymnastics since 2008.
