We are used to seeing Deon Cole make us laugh on shows like his own, Conan, Angie Tribeca and Black-ish, but way before then he was making people ooh and ahh.
Today when he was on The Real, he revealed to the ladies that he tried out for the Olympics when he was younger. What was his sport? Gymnastics. He told them that was really good at the floor, vault and parallel bars, but he says he was not sexy enough to do rings. I find it hard to believe he was gymnast, but people can surprise us all the time. Are you surprised by his revelation?
Imagine if he did he better than the top 300 when he tried out, then we would probably not be laughing with this very funny man every week on our televisions. That would be a real loss.
Now, I have to take a moment and make a plea to Anthony Anderson. Please, incorporate his gymnastics into one of your episodes. I can totally see Diane and him having a floor-off on the ABC sitcom. When is she finally going to get Charlie? It has been a long time coming!
