SO AS WE CHEER ON TEAM U.S.A. IN
THE WINTER OLYMPICS, JOHN JORDAN
IS HERE TO SHARE HOW SOME
OLIMBIANS FROM THE PAST TURN
INTO ICONS OUTSIDE OF THEIR
SPORT.
HEY, JOHN.
>> HEY, SO YES, THIS IS ABOUT
OLYMPIANS WHO WERE STYLE ICONS
FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER,
WINTER, SUMMER, I’M GOING TO
HAVE YOU HELP ME GUESS AND
CONVERSE ABOUT THIS.
AND THEY’RE ALL FROM THE PAST.
SO LET’S START WITH THE 1970s.
>> Jason: YES.
>> ICONIC STYLES.
WE THINK ABOUT THE AFRO.
WE THINK ABOUT FARRAH’S
FEATHERS.
THIS OLYMPIAN CAUSEED A COIFER
COMMOTION IN 1976.
>> Tati: OKAY.
I HAVE NO IDEA.
>> Jason: OH, I KNOW WHO HE’S
TALKING ABOUT.
YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT DORTHY
HAMMEL.
>> YOU GOT IT! >> Tati: OKAY.
>> Tati: OKAY.
>> Jason: DOROTHY HAMMILL.
>> THE WEDGE WAS A POPULAR CUT.
WOMEN ALL OVER GOT IT.
IT WAS A HARD CUT TO CUT AND
PAIN AND THE, THOUGH
>> Tati: I CAN IMAGINE.
IT FEELS LIKE THAT WOULD GROW
OUT REALLY QUICKLY, RIGHT?
>> YEP, YEP
>> Tati: SO YOU HAVE ANOTHER
OLYMPIAN THAT INSPIRED HAIRDO.
WHAT’S OUR CLUE?
>> OKAY.
WAY BACK, HOLLYWOOD BLOND
BOMBSHELL.
>> Tati: HOLLYWOOD BLOND
BOMBSHELL.
WHAT ERA? CAN I PHONE A FRIEND?
CAN I PHONE A FRIEND?
>> SO MOVIE STAR IN THE 190s, --
1930s.
IT’S A GUY.
>> Jason: GOSH, IT’S NOT BRUCE
JENNER WITH HIS PART DOWN THE
MIDDLE.
>> BEFORE HE PLAYED TAR DAN.
>> Jason: RON ELY?
>> NO.
BEFORE JOHNNY WISE.
>> Jason: BUSTER CRAB.
BUSTER CRAB?
I HAVE NO IDEA.
>> BUSTER CRAB!
DING, DING, DING, DING, DING.
THIS GUY, HE WAS BRUNETTE.
HE WAS STUNNINGLY HANDSOME.
BUT THEY HAD TO DIE HIS HAIR
BLOND TO PLAY FLASH GORDON.
AND COOL GUYS ARE STILL DOING IT
>> Tati: IT WORKS.
IT EITHER REALLY WORKS ON A GUY
OR HE MIGHT NEED THE LOOK FOR
ANOTHER OPTION.
>> Jason: YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN
THE TIME I DID IT.
I LOOKED LIKE EMINEM.
A REALLY CLOSE CROPPED AND SUPER
BLOND.
I LOOKED RIDICULOUS
>> Tati: YOU DID LOOK LIKE
EMINEM.
THE THIRD OLYMPIAN IS ALSO FROM
THE ’70s.
>> OKAY.
NOW THIS IS ABOUT MEN’S
ROOMMATES.
AND COINCIDENTALLY, ANOTHER
SWIMMER, LUKE BUSTER CRAB, HE
WAS RUMORED TO PLAY TARZAN AFTER
HIS OLYMPIC CAREER.
>> Jason: MARK SPITZ.
MARK SPITZ.
>> THERE YOU GO.
>> EVERYBODY WANTED TO LOOK LIKE
MARK SPITZ.
I SURE DID GROWING UP.
>> Tati: HE’S A LITTLE KEWPIE
PIE.
I’M NOT FAMILIAR WITH HIM
EITHER, BUT I’M FEELING THE
MUSTACHE.
>> THAT WAS IN THE ’70s.
>> Jason: SEAN, YOUR MUSTACHE
IS KILLING ME RIGHT NOW.
>> Tati: NOW, TO SOMEONE YOU
SAY COMBINED BOLD WITH GLAM?
>> YES.
OKAY.
YOU KNOW, FEMALE ATHLETES WERE
KIND OF NO NONSENSE UNTIL THIS
WOMAN BROUGHT GLAM TO TRACK AN
FIELD.
>> Tati: OH.
I THINK I KNOW.
FLOJO?
>> ME JOE
>> Tati: IT HAD TO BE.
IT HAS TO BE.
YES.
>> FLORENCE GRIFFETH JOYNER.
>> Tati: YES, YES, YES.
>> SO GLAMOROUS.
>> Tati: SUPER GLAMOROUS.
YOU KNOW, TIFFANY HADDISH IS
ACTUALLY PRODUCING A BIO-PIC
ABOUT HER.
>> I DIDN’T KNOW THAT.
>> Tati: YEAH.
IT’S GOING TO BE REALLY COOL,
RIGHT?
>> YEAH, YEAH, YEAH.
WELL, AND SPEAKING OF GLAMOROUS,
IT DOESN’T GET ANY MORE
GLAMOROUS THAN ROYALTY.
WHO IS THE OLYMPIC SWIMMER WHO
BECAME A PRINCESS?
>> Jason: OH, BOY.
>> Tati: AN OLYMPIAN BECAME A
DEPRESSION S.E.C.?
>> Jason: OLGA CORBETT.
I DON’T KNOW
>> Tati: I DON’T KNOW.
>> PRINCESS CHARLENE OF MONACO
WAS AN OLYMPIC SWIMMER BEFORE
SHE BECAME PRINCESS.
SHE MARRIED PRINCE ALBERT.
WHO WAS PRINCE ALBERT’S MOTHER,
DO WE KNOW?
FAMOUS HOLLYWOOD ACTRESS.
>> Jason: GRACE KELLY?
>> EXACTLY.
PRINCESS GRACE OF MONACO.
THERE WERE A LOT OF ROYALS IN
THE OLYMPICS.
>> Tati: I SEE.
>> THEY WEREN’T WEIGHT LIFTERS.
THEY WERE LIKE EQUESTRIANS, YOU
KNOW.
ALTHOUGH PRINCE ALBERT OF MONACO
WAS IN BOBSLED.
>> Tati: OKAY.
>> Jason: JOHN, THAT’S OUR
TIME.
IT’S ALWAYS GOOD TO HANG OUT
WITH YOU
>> Tati: THAT WAS FUN.
