Libby, what are you doing advertising for KFC? you more than anyone knows that KFC is junk food, I am realy suprised that you could lower your standards, as a sucessful swimmer I am sure you would not eat such rubbish. Please ditch KFC, you have too many young people who look up to you and use you as a role model, and eating KFC is not good for anyone, no matter how good it tastes. I am sure there are a lot of other companies that promote better health, that would only be too happy have you as their ambassador.
Congratulations on a wonderful career, sorry to see you leave, but I will not be sorry to see you leave KFC.!!
She will be a well liked TV personality i reckon. Good career choice
Somehow I don’t think I’d want to be in the water in India either.
Really looking forward to her covering the Commenwealth Games.
Look at that arm and those shoulders! That’s how a woman should be built. Plus she seems lovely. Should be a good addition to the team.
