Seriously adorable. Great gymnast and great personality. I loved seeing the American girls calling her over for a group hug after they all medaled. Congratulations to Melanie!
She is stunning!! I cannot wait for all around. She has a really strong shot at a medal. She would’ve medaled if all around were today, just barely behind Andrade.
I really want her to medal @ this World's. She deserve's it. I've seen the improvement and confidence change. Plus she's really just a beautiful classy feminine gymnast to watch.
I agree. Every time I see her I think she is so beautiful. Skye blakely is also so naturally pretty. She just doesn’t arch her eyebrows or wear makeup.
Same! I studied French from grade 7 through 12. Haven't used it in the 30 years since I graduated so I started watching French movies and it is NOT coming back like everyone said it would. I had brain surgery to remove a tumor in 2012 and I think maybe that's why.
What do you mean? English is the lingua franca, she probably learned it in school latest at the age of ten. Not everybody has a disastrous foreign language education standard as the US.
@@emilwandel Permit me to say that language education in France insist on grammar and list of vocabulary, so having a proper accent and conversational english as she does is an achievement.
did she say Ludivine furnon is her fave gymnast? today happens to be her bday; i only know that bc FB said so and shared a vid of one of her glorious routines
Yet she is representing her country France😂 even if she is also from martinique she still is french it don't a difference at all. She still French and representing france
No, his father is Portuguese. Brazilians always remind me that she's Brazilian, just because of her name. She's French (from Martinique). She was born in France, she grew up in France, her mother is French and so is her stepfather (she never lived with her father and she's said several times that she has no connection with Portugal). A name doesn't mean anything these days, there's diversity everywhere and that's a good thing.
@@marlene97280 -"HER" Dad! NOT "HIS"! She`s not a trans! And the guy is French with Portuguese back grounds so the girl is 100% French born on Martinique (France) from 2 French parents. Nothing to do with Brazil!
We all know Martinique is part of France, It`s a French overseas District. I was very happy to hear her saying that being proud to be from Martinique is not in opposition to being proud to be French for her island is not a country but is part of France. Im from St Barth and i entirely 100% agree with her.
Strange comment. They probably could if they trained in France and started to learn the language. American gymnasts aren't just going to learn French randomly.
Congratulations to her. Lord knows the french Federation didn't do anything for her success. They low-key blackballed her when She decided to rrain with Biles and team.
The French federation does a lot of stupid things, but no, they haven't ousted her. Her former coach helped to get her to the USA. She wanted to end her career and without Biles and the Landis, she certainly wouldn't be in gymnastics any more. She needed something different and she's close to her family, she can go to Martinique more often, which is really cool for her. And the Landis are probably the best coaches in the world.
She's so effortlessly charming. I cried when she finally got her World medal ❤❤
Melanie it is not because you’re French. It’s because you are a STAR! Your eyes twinkle.
They really do 😊
But being French make makes her extraaaa special!
For sure! I started learning after discovering her a few months ago.😌
...and they say she's cute because she is.
Seriously adorable. Great gymnast and great personality. I loved seeing the American girls calling her over for a group hug after they all medaled. Congratulations to Melanie!
She’s so sweet!!!!! I’m always rooting for her! Her leotard is GORGEOUS and her English rocks!!
What a freaking cutie! “But, don’t speak really fast…” ☺️
It was love at first worlds for me with Melanie. Her gymnastics is so beautiful to watch. She is special 🤩
She’s so adorable! I really hope that she gets an Olympic medal in Paris!!!
Sucks she’s not in an EF but go for the all-around!!! She’s soooo good
She is stunning!! I cannot wait for all around. She has a really strong shot at a medal. She would’ve medaled if all around were today, just barely behind Andrade.
She is simply adorable. And incredibly talented.
Melanie- you're a class act; Americans love that. Love watching you !
She is so pretty, funny, and talented! Her beam routine today made me tear up
That double pike landing was perfect!
She is so beautiful and so precious and wildly talented. I hope she continues to be successful. She's fantastic.

She’s so pretty :: lovely English :: I wish I could speak french as well as she speaks English
You can learn French
Same! I studied French from grade 7 through 12. Haven't used it in the 30 years since I graduated so I started watching French movies and it is NOT coming back like everyone said it would. I had brain surgery to remove a tumor in 2012 and I think maybe that's why.
Was this the French leo in qualifications? I love it!
wow! she's picked up English so quickly!!! she's friggin hilarious, too--

She's just charming and innocent

Not just French but Martinique to be exact.
Let them know!
Yet she is representing her country France😂 even if she is also from martinique she still is french it don't a difference at all. She still French and representing france
@@shalbec3232Martinique is a France oversea department. They are french like all the other citizens. It's like Hawai for Usa.
Funny as an islander myself from Guadeloupe believe me we aren't consider as french it's only when it suits them.
@@nickyme8407Bullshit.
Get it mama!!!!
Melanie - you are fancy!😊
Melanie ❤
Congrats ❤
Melanie De Jesus dos Santos, This is a very common brazilian name
She is martinican with a Mother from Martinique and his dad is Brazilian

Nothing to do with Brazil!
She's from Martinique!
Tes yeux scintillent🤩
Tes yeux pétillent. (Les étoiles scintillent dans le ciel. Les guirlandes scintillent sur notre arbre de Noël.)
Pretty sure they're saying she's cute because she's extremely cute, not because she's French haha.
Youna is a LEGEND absolutely
All these footballers won't see this innocent beauty to date o. They will goan carry one of those off the assembly women and complain later.
Shes soo Cute❤
love the cute acceeeeent!
lol, she thinks people call her cute because she is french :DD
❤❤👍🏾🎯
she is Caribbean girl, always with this necklace of Martinique

Im from St Barth and i entirely 100% agree with her.
@@wisdom-only- Im from Martinique, cest une martiniquaise fiere de l'être
Comme elle est adorable
I guess she meant Jade Barbarosa?
*Barbosa but not sure if it was about her or Carey
She meant Carey since they were discussing American gymnast.
i'm in love with her fr she's so pretty
She's so great! Wish she competed for us. Can we exchange shilese Jones with her attitude
How many American athletes could do interviews in French?
Strange comment. They probably could if they trained in France and started to learn the language. American gymnasts aren't just going to learn French randomly.
How many Americans athletes train in France?
@@roachums123 yeah but their french would sound awful
@@roachums123 I’ve heard plenty of non-American gymnasts do interviews in English.
@@nonimbogo The real question is, Why are so few Americans multilingual?
Congratulations to her. Lord knows the french Federation didn't do anything for her success. They low-key blackballed her when She decided to rrain with Biles and team.

She looks like shacarri . ❤
Boy got some PAWS.
Why ya hands so big?
Try swinging around the parallel bars or pushing yourself on the bean with tiny hands and see how that works.
It's not because you're french, it's becausr you're a cutie.
It’s because she is super cute
