“I would like to be on Dancing With the Stars because I am a star,” said the figure skater, following her disappointing 10th-place finish in the individual women's event after winning bronze in the team competition early in the PyeongChang games. Nagasu had said earlier that she hoped to land on the ABC reality show. "I made history here by landing the first triple axel for a U.S. lady at the Olympics so I think that is a big deal. I hope I get more opportunities to let my personality just shine," she said, adding: "I smiled in the middle of my program, which is really rare for me. So I enjoyed myself and I thought of this as my audition for Dancing with the Stars."
