Nadia Hits the Headlines (20th April, 2006)

Nadia Comaneci hit the headlines in the Daily Mail newspaper this week (19th April). She was pictured attending the Hollywood premiere of the Stick It movie.

The article entitled ‘30 years on, Nadia is still the perfect 10,’ remarks that 30 years after her elfin performances in 1976 when she stunned the world with her perfect gymnastics, Nadia, now 44 years old, who looks like she was born in Hollywood with her sparkly perfect teeth and high cheekbones, can still capture the attention of a nation, nowadays it is with her looks rather than her twisting and tumbling ability!
