Kyla Ross, Jordyn Weiber, McKayla Maroney, Aly Raisman and Gabby Douglas show off their roses they received from David Letterman outside the Ed Sullivan Theater in new York City on Tuesday afternoon (August 14).
The Fierce Five stopped by The Late Show with David Letterman and chatted about which other Olympic sport they would’ve liked to pursue.
BFFs McKayla and Kyla chose Beach Volleyball. Who else could see them winning gold like Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh-Jennings?
Jordyn, Aly and Gabby all chose an Athletics event:
“I think the long jump in track,” Jordyn dished. “No [I haven't tried it], but my mom actually did it in college, so I think, yeah.”

Alexandra Raisman is shocked when she sees her score on the boards at the Artistic Gymnastics Women’s Team qualification on Day 2 of the London 2012 Olympic Games held at North Greenwich Arena on Sunday afternoon (July 29) in London.
The 18-year-old Team Captain was also fed the news that teammate Jordyn Wieber didn’t qualify for the Team All-Arounds. Countries are limited to two gymnasts in the all-around and event finals.
“I was really surprised, and I feel awful because she wanted it so bad,” Aly told ESPN. “But she should still feel proud because she’s an Olympian. We have to stay calm and focused on team finals.”
The American team is on top, with Russia, China and Britain following.
Aly, Jordyn, Gabrielle Douglas, McKayla Maroney and Kyla Ross are also seen after training sessions earlier in the week.
