Olympic skier Gus Kenworthy was a guest on last night’s episode of Conan and told a pretty funny story about his original plan to come out at the 2014 Sochi Olympics. He was planning to win an Olympic gold medal and then kiss his then-boyfriend.
Instead, though, he won a silver medal (no small feat) and remarked: “I’m glad it didn’t because I hadn’t told my mom, my dad, my brothers, it would have not only been a shock to the sport and the Olympics, but my family would have been like, ‘What the hell?’”
