Olympic obsession Shawn Johnson talks fashion


Shawn Johnson has won a gold medal. She has sponsorship deals with huge companies like McDonald's, coca Cola, Adidas and more. But, we suspect that someday we'll be seeing her with her own fashion line since this girl is an athlete with a big thing for fashion!

WWD got the scoop with the tiny tumbler on who her favorite designers are and her thoughts on heels. They discovered that she's, "addicted to True Religion jeans." Because of her preferences for pieces that are quirky and unique, she absolutely loves Ed Hardy.

As for shoes, as a woman who's a tad on the short side, Shawn is into wearing high heels. But, leading up to the Olympics her coach wouldn't allow her to wear them so she felt deprived. Now that Beijing has come and gone, Shawn got right back in the saddle, wearing 3 inch silver peep toe heels to the first major event she attended.

She said, "It's actually the first time I've worn heels in, like, five months, so it feels a little weird. But I love heels. They make me feel a little more confident."
