Talking with jillboard, Olympics newcomer erica_sully discusses her medal, Olympic Village tea, and hot girls
Photo: Patrick B Kraemer/EPA-EFE/Shutterstock On Tuesday, Olympic newcomer Erica Sullivan made history in the Olympics’ first ever women’s swimming 1,500m freestyle race, bringing home the silver medal for America. Yes, she was the first ever woman to win a silver medal in the Olympic event — the 20-year-old’s first medal — but Sullivan made history in other ways too. Representation matters: Erica is representing America as an Asian American, an out and proud queer woman, and, yes … a Swiftie.
I called Erica and talked to her about her medal, begged for Olympic Village tea, and shrieked with her about hot girls. I hug my coach. I do the whole medal stand, the media, the press conference, all that stuff. And then you go to drug testing. Like as soon as you get out of the water, there’s a drug tester waiting and like, they will follow you until you have to pee. Like, you get out of the water and they follow you to the podium.So the soccer team was not in the Village. Very disappointing. It’s like a bunch of apartment complexes and Team USA has their own building. Swimming is on the fourth floor.
Oh man, that was a phase. I joined the fandom straight and I left gay. We’ll just leave it at that. I cried when Camila [Cabello] left Fifth Harmony. I had a swim meet that day and I spent the whole morning sobbing my eyes out.Oh my God, I love Fivel Stewart. But my person, Brigette Lundy-Paine, they are an icon. If Brigette Lundy-Paine would like to reach out to me, that would be awesome too. But I can’t DM them ’cause they don’t have Instagram.
