Nadia Comaneci on InnerVIEWS with Ernie Manouse
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 чер 2011
- Nadia Comaneci took the world by storm at the 1976 Olympics in Montreal -- scoring the first-ever perfect 10 in gymnastics, a feat that she would duplicate six times before the games came to a close. With her coach Bela Karolyi at her side, she continued to shine through to the 1980 Moscow Olympics, where she won three medals for her native country Romania. But her life started to change following Karolyi's defection in 1981, and eventually she did the same, defecting in 1989. Today, she is married to fellow Olympic Gymnast Bart Connor, and works tirelessly on behalf of such causes as the Muscular Dystrophy Association, International Special Olympics, and the Nadia Comaneci Children's Clinic in Bucharest. Join Ernie Manouse for his conversation with 5-time Olympic Gold medalist and gymnastic superstar Nadia Comaneci.

one of the reasons romania is seen in a good light. i miss my country so much. PROUD TO BE ROMANIAN!!
Nadia is the greatest athlete ever! She did so much for gymnastics and for the Olympic movement. She is and always will be a class act.
Nadia Comaneci Romania,what a beautifull combination name! Thats a perfect 10 itself! She is so sweetly cutedy when she performed at 1976 olympic. And now another perfect 10 at this age. There is not another nadia hundred years before n hundred years after! She is the one n the only nadia comaneci in this world! She is the greatest gymnast of all times. What a great legend......from malaysia........
She got 7 times 10 and tough the judges were just nice with her . So sweet Nadia .Romania loves you forever .
no one can beat you Nadia no matter what!!!!
Love when she talks about Special Olympics and MDA-- she has such great passion for these causes, as well as the work she does in Romania. God Bless her!
I'm very glad to hear that she did all those hours training because she was having fun and loved it. She is sooooo humble and unassuming. Brilliant.
Above the greatest gymnast of all times other seven perfect 10's. Very humble. Very gorgeous. Very hardworking. Very self-confident. Very patriotic. Very inspiring. Humanitarian/Special Olympics supporter.
May she live long. Amin
My mom always wanted to be a gymnast... She REALLY looked up to Nadia as a kid, and I really look up to her too. That's why i'm becoming a gymnast... I love the sport. :D
Never will there be another Nadia.
i'm romanian and I take inspiration from her every day.
She's so special. She can analyze her success and the frenzy around her without bragging and without fake humility, as if it all happened to someone else. Very poised, reserved. It shows she's very intelligent and that she knows how to answer questions by giving just the right amount of information and by keeping her secrecy. She's really inspiring.
Legend !!! The perfect 10 !!!
Wow! What an awesome interview. You really get the feeling that you know Nadia after this interview. The questions are spot on. They are all the questions I would have liked to ask. Nadia is so open and honest with her answers. I loved every minute of it.
The best this sport has ever or will ever produce.
I love Nadia’s Theme the theme from The Young And The Restless,
she made a major impact in my life, thank u nadia. you will never know how much you changed my life for the better.
It brings tears in my eyes everytime i watch her perfect 10 routines... What and athlete, what a performer... Gotta love Nadia!
I love the story of how her and Bart met. It is kind of sad that people don't give Bart Conner the credit he deserves. Don't get me wrong I love Nadia but Bart deserves some credit too. He is the only US male gymnast in history to win a medal at every level of national and international competition. All people seem to know him for is either being married to Nadia or for the movie Rad. If it wasn't for Bart Conner then Oklahoma would only be known as a Football state. When Bart came to the University of Oklahoma and did gymnastics there, he was practicing with his teammates in an old run-down movie theater. In order to do a vault you had to start from the ticket booth. Not long after that OU realized that the gymnasts needed a better place to practice. I respect Bart and Nadia for what they've done for gymnastics. Nadia rewrote the rules of gymnastics while Bart helped grow and make gymnastics what it is today here in Oklahoma. Love from Oklahoma
It's started with a kiss😍 ...you find in one Video with " The adorable way this Olympic Couple first met/Where are they now/Oprah Winfrey Network" --- Enjoy!😃 About Nadia: She take 7 times a "perfect 10" at the Olympics in Melbourne. ---About Bart Conner : He take a "perfect 10" at parallel bars at the Olympics in Los Angeles
Thank you for this tribute to Bart Conner! This couple is a class act!
NOW THAT'S A PRETTY ROMANIAN WOMAN !!!!!!!! LUV HER ACCENT AND HUMBLE ATTITUDE. ANOTHER GREAT ICON OF THE SUPER SEVENTIES!!.
Wow! She's awesome! Great interview!
Nadia, there's something about you us Americans love. Back in '76, all races in America were so very, very happy for you....something about you touched all of our hearts. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.
So true! She was so simply the master of her sport.
So true! She was so simply the master of her sport.
I agree! This is the BEST interview I have ever seen of Nadia!
BTW I met Nadia in person last week, and she is one of the most amazing and gracious persons I have ever seen. So nice and kind and smiling with all her fans. If I was a fan of hers before because of her gymnastics magic, now I am even more because of her inner beauty!
Love love love Nadia. She's amazing. So wonderful to see her enjoy her life here with Bart Conner and their son.
And still so simply beautiful in every way. As a partner with her husband, and to so many people, both impaired, and not. She is an inspirational human being .
she changed the whole world of gymnastics and became the face of the Olympics .
she has my vote as the greatest Olympian ever in any sport.
the best AND NUMBER 1 IN THE WORLD ALWAYS.....ROMANIAN NADIA....SO PROUD TO BE A ROMANIAN....
Bravo Nadia!
You are still inspiring the world!
The interviewer is awesome! Perfect questions all the time!!
special person!!! real great n special personality!!!! love you nadia!
*INCREDIBLE!😍 A🌟 STAR 🌟IS BORN ! SHE TOOK SEVEN "PERFECT 10" TO OLYMPIC IN MONTREAL IN 1976 ! NOBODY WILL BE LIKE SHE! 😃*
Not Melbourne it was in Montreal!
lovely interview
She has been a greatest inspiration to many people all over the world in all walk of life regardless of one in gymnastics or not.
Nadia... you're a Godess. I love you since I saw you in Montreal '76. You're perfect!
By miles the best there ever was ...and a nice person as well .... and for her age she still looks stunning
What an incredible, and beautiful woman! I so glad I decide to check out the lady that rules women's gymnastics!
He is a great interviewer - asked such good questions!
I cried when she got the first 10 and every time when watch her. She is special...
Nadia... She's absolutely beautiful on so many levels..!! I love how grounded and how real Nadia is !! A beautiful woman indeed..♥️Nadia
Bravo Nadia!
She will always be the BEST
I love this guy's interview style.
She speaks very good English. She has blossomed into a very beautiful woman.
Humble and motivated... If only we could have such characteristics in today's pop-culture. Just pride and slothfulness today. What a trade... A spoiled generation we are!
I don't see humble on her 😞
Siempre admire a Nadia todas sonabamos ser como Ella
Love you Nadia. So pleased that you are doing so well and contributing/creating various enterprises to help people and the environment.
you made me love the olympics nadia
delightful woman. so cute.
OMG I LOVE her accent
It happens the same to me when I see Nadia's perfect performance. I can't avoid thinking that is God who gives someone a special talent and also He put them around the people who is going to help them accomplished a great thing.
Full disclosure.. I, at the age of 45, was not aware of Nadia and her accomplishments until this time in my life.
I can and will say that Mrs. Comăneci is on the level of greatness as an inspirational person and sports figure to the heights of Ali or Jordan. Period.
The impact her life and determination has brought to so many, both indirectly and directly can not be understated.
And I will go as far as to say that her union with Bart Conner as an example of what is truly possible in marriage and faith with a shared vision takes all the accolades to another level.
Both of them are worthy of Saint status.
Grateful to you both for all you continue to bring forth in the world. 🙏❤️🙏
she is special and lovely,
Fantastic interview. I love the timbre in her voice.
Love her!
You are a inspiration to continue looking forward in my life
Nice when she thought that 1.0 was not good because she saw that other girls got 9.0 to 9.5. Cheers from a Mexican in Montreal.
What an amazing person!!!
Nadia's low-key beautiful. It's not blatantly obvious but when you start to really squint it's like, "oh wait... she's fly..."
She is very attractive
@SIMPSON Bart How should I explaing someone beauty?
I am Romanian and I am training the olymics
I love Nadia
Nadie cono Nadia!
My mom was an avid viewer of sports and I was only 7 yrs old when she got that perfect 10 and I will never forget her greatness. I remember trying to tumble around the yard like her and my father saying hey don't do that and then one day I hurt my neck bad and I never said a thing.
Hey Nadia, Now I know why we love you darling. I did watch something about your life.
Awesome Lady
She os Petty natually I think se made something to her líps and there was no need.. she is a great person and a role model to the young ones
I saw her when I was 6 on TV and I never heard of her until tonight. Yes. She was born a gymnast! She did gymnastic because she really love it. I was watching THE 1996 magnificent 7 stories on TV tonight and I followed their lives on Wiki. One of them sued her parents at 17 to get control of her money and married off to a doc and never had anything to do with gymnastic. The other married a rich lawyer and became a stay home mum.
She's so beautiful! Reminds me of Courtney Cox!
Travelling back in time again: I did see a clip of her from her competitions just by mobile and I started to get Interest about her and read more..and remenbered about her when she was competeing at th time..All memoryes started coming back,,recalling when I sat and watching the Olympics and her and how I was stunned and amazed how she did all her exercises soo,, easy and like flying and like she was doing against Gravity rules.?? What was hidden in that tiny fragile body that could do so amazing gymnastic moves at tha age..? Those pictures got stuck in my mind and now reacalling back again..it feels like been just couple months ago. I got interest of her Life to read more and to findout more about her life and I even Bought her book."Letters for a young Gymanst" and im so mesmerized about her inner toughts and person as little girl and later on teen aged woman and struggle she had as young gymnast.. I reading the book and got more intrigued about her life and person, shes so strong minded rigorous dicipline and almost robotic calculations of her moves as a Gymnast and also her as a person. The funny thing is that She is same age like me only 5 months older,,? and apparently (accoding this intervjew) she was 46 and just had her first baby,,almost same like me,,I got my first baby when i was 41. How life can be strange sometimes.
Thank you for Supporting Special Olympics Swimming bowling and walking, Nadia. Love you.
AWW she's so sweet! :D
Beautiful Nadia❤❤❤
she destroyed her mother's furniture....hahaha!
i completely agree! it's a sin not to share with the world your God giving talent. and the performance..well, it is indeed, a testament of God's grace...
What year is this?
A great woman
I hope she takes over for Martha Karolyi.

NEWS FLASH****** she isn't Romanian anymore people, she's an American now...has been since 1989.
im the pope & ur who Ernie Manouse?
Look into long term DDR. Drug's effect?? ❤️❤️❤️❤️
What's wrong about being a gypsy?
I am a black head (do they use that still in Germany?) :) not a racist...
And.. when I talk about a gypsy becoming a first class gymnast I am not talking about genetics, I am talking about living conditions, income, education...
And yes, I know that Comaneci is not a roma.
By the way...
You might have become "too white" in Germany?
MFR?
E fea noastra mă
im surprised how beloved she is that everyone overlooks how arrogant she is over and over. I dont think its a language barrier anymore
No, I think she may give off that vibe because of her reserved personality.
You're just Jealous
How is she arogant?
how bout bella?
lol
Nadia is so Modest, Love her!! Named my Bengal Gymnast Cat after her
