My pump-up songs before I compete are not the usual. They’re more girly songs. I love ‘The Climb’ by Miley Cyrus. It’s about the journey and savoring every moment. I have ‘The World’s Greatest’ by R. Kelly on my playlist, too. Kacy Catanzaro Read Quote

Nastia Liukin, I was obsessed with her. And I say was, but really am obsessed with her. She’s just so amazing. Kacy Catanzaro Read Quote
