Gabby Douglas Still Making Deals


2012 Olympic Champion Gabby Douglas is still successfully riding the wave of post-Olympic stardom. Following in the footsteps of former teammate Shawn Johnson, Douglas has signed a deal with Nike.

With this deal, Douglas "shares her training secrects" with Nike Training Club (NTC) members in what they're calling her "Perfect Alignment Workout," designed specifically to get the lower body lean and toned.

They're also using her in a Japanese Nike Free advertising campaign. Watch Gabby star in the amusing Japanese ad:




In March, Douglas left agent Sheryl Shade (who also represents Johnson) for sports and entertainment behemoth Creative Artists Agency (CAA) and the endorsment deals are still coming fast.

Even McDonald's hired 17-year-old Douglas to help promote its newest item, the egg-white breakfast sandwich.

Currently, Douglas is touring the country promoting her second book. This past weekend, she attended the White House Correspondents' Dinner and appeared on the Today Show in New York [video].



What's next for the Olympic Champ? She told us in an interview at the 2013 AT&T American Cup that she plans to return to Chow's to resume training in May, however she's showing no sign of slowing down.
