Nadia Comăneci – Now 60 Years Old
After dominating the Olympic gymnastics scene in the 1970s and 1980s, Nadia Comăneci became a household name. During her long career, Comaneci won five Olympic gold medals. In 1976, she was also the first gymnast to achieve a flawless 10.0 score. Yes, you guessed it! At the time, she was only 14 years old! She also became something of an icon after fleeing communist Romania and defecting to the United States. She is currently a dual citizen of both countries and spends the majority of her time volunteering with children’s organizations in her native country.

Cathy Rigby – Now 69 Years Old
From the late 1960s through the early 1970s, Cathy Rigby rose to popularity as an American artistic gymnast who competed in the Olympics. She did not become a star athlete, however, because she only earned a silver medal at the 1970 World Championship. She retired in 1978 and went on to become a stage actor. Her most well-known role was as Peter Pan on Broadway. She also reprised her role in a 2018 adaptation of the play, which is rather astounding for a 67-year-old. Cathy and her husband also co-own McCoy Rigby Entertainment, a producing company.
