PARIS, France — The Closing Ceremony broadcast in the United States featured five different co-hosts to take on the responsibility of bidding farewell to the 2024 Paris Olympics.
NBC's Mike Tirico was back as a host alongside "Tonight Show" host Jimmy Fallon. They're joined by Terry Gannon and former Olympic figure skaters Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir. The trio previously served as Closing Ceremony hosts for the last three Olympics.
Who is Johnny Weir?
Johnny Weir is a two-time Olympian, three-time U.S. men's figure skating champion and the 2008 world bronze medalist.
Who is Tara Lipinski?
Tara Lipinski won the women's figure skating gold medal at the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano Japan.
Lipinski and Weir have been calling figure skating together since the 2014 Olympics in Sochi. Along with Gannon, they quickly moved up and became NBC's main commentating team for figure skating.
In addition to their spot-on and frank figure skating analysis, they are also known for bringing the fashion, complete with bedazzled microphones. And they share their adventures on a joint Instagram account.
How old was Tara Lipinski when she won the gold medal?
15 years, 255 days. At the time, Lipinski was the youngest individual event winner in Winter Olympics history.
She's not, however, the youngest gold medalist. That belongs to Kim Yun-Mi of South Korea, who won the gold in 1994 in the women's short track 3,000-meter relay, a team event, at the age of 13 years, 86 days.
Who is Tara Lipinski married to?
She's married to sports producer Todd Kapostasy. The couple tied the knot in 2017.
Lipinski and Kapostasy are co-executive producers for the documentary "Meddling," looking at the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics pairs figure skating scandal.
In Oct. 2023, the couple announced they had welcomed a daughter through a surrogate after several years of infertility.
