Team USA’s most adorable manicures at the Paralympics – if you’re not distracted by their bronze and silver medals
TEAM USA showed their strength, not just in athleticism, but also in their mani game.
Their performance at the Paralympics earned them some shiny medals, but their glamorous nails truly stood out.
Brittany Brown and Brittni Mason, both Olympic sprinters, sported trendy polish designs.
Alexandra Truwit and Gia Pergolini not only took home medals for their swimming victories, they did it in style.
And track and field athlete Jaleen Roberts dazzled with her bold look.
The talented athletes proved that they can be winners and look good while doing it.
BRITTANY BROWN
Brittany Brown, 29, is an Olympic sprinter who competed in the 2024 Paralympics.
The California native took home a bronze medal in track and field in the Women’s 200 meter.
She also had her nails perfectly polished with an ethereal rainbow design.
Brown lives with endometriosis, a condition where tissue that resembles uterine lining grows outside of the uterus.
The disease can cause debilitating symptoms such as severe pain.
Brown smiled for the camera, touching her face and showing off her stunning manicure.
BRITTNI MASON
Brittni Mason, 26, was diagnosed with Erb’s palsy as a child.
The condition can limit muscle function in the arms and shoulders.
Mason, a silver medalist in the women’s 100m T47 race, dropped jaws with her performance and bedazzled French manicure with blue tips.
ALEXANDRA TRUWIT
Swimmer Alexandra Truwit, 24, suffered a serious shark attack one year ago.
The accident led to an amputation of one of her legs just below the knee.
Truwit went back to swimming, winning two silver medals in the Women’s 100m backstroke S10 and Women’s 400m freestyle S10 while sporting nails with red star designs.
JALEEN ROBERTS
Jaleen Roberts, 25, is a track and field athlete.
She lives with cerebral palsy and took home a silver medal in Women’s long jump T37 at the 2024 Paralympics.
She went with a dazzling blue hue for her nails, with different designs for each finger.
GIA PERGOLINI
Gia Pergolini, 20, a swimmer, lives with Stargardt’s disease, which impairs her vision.
She won both gold in the Women’s 100m backstroke S13 and silver in the Women’s 50m freestyle S13 at the 2024 Paralympics.
Pergolini truly represented Team USA with red, white, and blue nails.
