McKayla Maroney teaches Jenna Bush the Dougie
American gymnast McKayla Maroney is quickly becoming my favorite Olympian of the London Games. Not only did she bust out a near-perfect vault in the team competition helping the United States to victory, she was so disappointed with her silver medal performance in the individual vault final that it spawned its own Internet meme.
Now she's making more headlines for her attempt to teach former first-daughter Jenna Bush how to "Dougie."
Bush was interviewing the U.S. gymnastics team on top of a double-decker bus as part of a piece for the Today Show. I'm not exactly sure how they got on the topic, but Maroney is apparently really good at the dance, and tries to teach Bush how to do it.
The hilarious part comes when Maroney urges Bush to "stand up" to learn it, perhaps forgetting that they're on a moving bus. Bush then almost falls as a result.
I'm not a Dougie expert, but it looks like Maroney knows what she's doing. Unfortunately it doesn't look like Bush picked up on it before the bus started moving again.
