Chris Fogt
Team: USA
Sport: Bobsled
Chris Fogt
Chris Fogt rounds out Team USA’s DAMN SEXY bobsled team.  He has been competing since 2007.  He graduated Utah Valley University with a degree in Business Management.  He completed ROTC and was commissioned into the army as a 2nd LT in the Military Intelligence branch.  Me-thinks he looks a little like ‘James Bond’ Daniel Craig!  “Fogt.  Christ Fogt.”


Melissa Hollingsworth
Team: Canada
Sport: Skeleton
Melissa Hollingsworth
She soared to a Bronze at Turin Games and came to Vancouver to get even more hardware. Hollingsworth is the first Canadian to win an Olympic medal in her sport  While she came in 5th overall this time, we want to make our own OURsceneTV medal for her... 5th place is what?, Nickel? Who cares we just want to get close enough to put it around her neck.

 

Scott Moir
Team: Canada
Sport: Figure Skating
Scott Moir
We wouldn’t be able to keep our little red mittens off of “too cute for words” Canadian Figure Skater, Scott Moir.  He and his skating partner, Tessa Virtue, are the reigning Canadian national champions.  So whattya think…straight or gay?  Well, unfortunately for us, Scott is dating Canadian pair skater, Jessica Dube. Oy!

 

Julia Mancuso
Team: USA
Sport: Slalom
Julia Mancuso
She could be the woman of our dreams. She won two silver metals this year despite all the media induced hype around Lindsey Vonn. If it weren't enough that she dons a tiara on the medal podium (amazing), she launched her own lingerie line named “Kiss My Tiara,” referencing an incident wherein she wore a plastic tiara on top of her helmet down a slalom race and, of course, won.

 

Kris Freeman
Team: USA
Sport: Cross-Country
Kris Freeman
Kris Freeman has been lauded as the best American distance cross-country racer for the past decade.  His first Olympics was in 2002 in Salt Lake City where he helped the 4x10km relay team to its best-ever Olympic finish.  Unfortunately he didn’t medal in Vancouver, but Kris, aka “Bird” is still very close to our hearts.  Just take a look at THAT photo.  Bird’s the word!


Claudia Toth
Team: Austria
Sport: Curling
Claudia Toth
Got any funny curling jokes now ladies? For all those womyn lovers out there you will be happy to know that she has turned down offers from the German edition of Playboy. Now, for all the women lovers out there you will be happy to know she did take it off for the Women of Curling calendar . We appreciate a woman with standards. Here's a little trivia for you... Claudia has a younger sister, Karina who is on the team as well.

 

John Kerr
Team: Great Britain
Sport: Ice Dancing
John Kerr
John Kerr may skate arm in arm with his sister, Sinead Kerr, but we are going gaga over him.  This Scottish-born cutie (and his sister) placed 10th in the Torino Olympics, but this year, they may just have a chance!  But, John!  Do we have a chance with you?

 

Dominique Maltais
Team: Canada
Sport: Snowboard Cross
Dominique Maltais

Good grief. Not only is this woman a snowboarder, but she worked as a firefighter before turning pro in '06. If you are wondering how you missed this burning flame, she didn't qualify for the finals.. If you are also wondering why you smell smoke.. it's because we are starting fires hoping she will come save us...

 


Simon Fourcade
Team: France
Sport: Biathlon
Simon Fourcade
Simon Fourcade is described as being a “laid-back” Frenchmen, but still remained the “World’s Best” at the Men’s 10K sprint.  Unfortunately, Fourcade didn’t pull off the 10K medal, however, it wasn’t a complete loss!  Simon’s brother, Martin, took home the Silver and the two still have one race to go!

 

Ashleigh McIvor
Team Canada
Sport:  Ski Cross
Ashleigh McIvor
McIvor was a member of Canada's freestyle skiing team s where ski-cross was making its debut as an official medal event... and she won the gold... Oh, she also models on the runway too...

 

Johnny Weir
Team: USA
Sport: Figure Skating / Being Fabulous
Johnny Weir
We HAD to include Johnny in this list.  Though we are terribly confused.  We’re not sure if we want to drag him under the sheets or play dress-up with him, or maybe just take a bath together and speak with Russian accents while wearing faux-fur?  Either way.  We love Johnny Weir…and if there ever was an Olympic Flame that burned brighter than all the others...it’s Johnny.
