当地时间5月4日，美国纽约，谷爱凌现身前往录制NBC《今日秀》，这也是她继日前亮相2022 Met Gala时尚活动后，第二个海外公开行程。当天，谷爱凌身穿白色露脐套装抵达现场，拎着同色系手包，造型运动干练，举手投足间又不失优雅。与前两天在Met Gala上打造的酷飒造型形成强烈对比，两种风格都被她完美驾驭。

在NBC早间谈话节目《Today》的录制现场，谷爱凌与主持人分享了自己的冬奥以及运动感受。

“我一直都觉得重要的是我可以去激励更多年轻女孩，让更多人能够了解（自由式滑雪）这项运动，并使其成为增强相互交流的手段。（冬奥会）是一个我的重要时刻，有这么多人在关注，这也是我去追寻我所说的那些目标的机会。”

谷爱凌坦言，自己心中印象最为深刻的冬奥瞬间之一，就是自己在大跳台项目上尝试挑战1620动作——那是她的首个冬奥会项目，最终她成功完成了这个此前从未完成过的动作，惊险夺金。“对于那个时候的我来说，没有什么失败，最大的失败就是不去尝试。所以我去尝试了，当我拿到那枚金牌的时候，感觉就像是站在了世界最高处一样。能够把冰雪运动介绍给更多人，尤其是青少年女孩，这对于我来说意义重大。”

而对于外界的一些不和谐的声音，谷爱凌也坦然面对：“每个人都会有自己的看法，这并没有对与错，我只是想以我的方式把世界变得更好。如果有人不同意，他们可以用自己的方式去把世界变得更好，我们可以从不同的角度前进。”

谷爱凌走红毯。今年秋天，谷爱凌就要成为一名斯坦福大学的学生。此前她以SAT仅比满分低20分的优异成绩，得到了斯坦福大学的录取。对于未来是否还会继续征战下一届冬奥会，谷爱凌的想法是“顺其自然”，先专心自己在学业上的情况。

“我仍然热爱滑雪，这是我非常个人和个性化的一部分，这项运动教会了我坚持，教会了我跨文化交流，所以为什么不呢？”

Eileen Gu took home three Olympic medals during the 2022 Games in Beijing, competing for team China to honor her mother’s home country. The freestyle skier joins TODAY’s Hoda Kotb live in Studio 1A to talk about the payoff of hard work and the importance of inspiring young girls.

‘The worst failure is to not try’

Three-time Olympic freeski medallist Ailing (Eileen) Gu is back in the United States after an extended period of time in China, following her successful Beijing 2022 campaign.

The 18-year-old has had a busy week in New York, attending the Met Gala on Monday (2 May) and appearing on NBC's Today show.

Gu, who last February became the first-ever freeskier to take home three medals at one Games, reflected on her historic Olympic debut.

"The really standout moment for me was landing that 1620 in Big air which was my first event," she said.

"I've always said my message is about inspiring young girls and inspiring more people to hear about the sport and to use it as a force to create interconnection and cultural communication.

"I knew that it was such a big moment and so many people were watching. It was my time to live up to that standard that I've set. So in that sense I was like no matter what there is no failure because if I don’t land, the worst failure is to not try." - Ailing (Eileen) Gu

She added: "I wanted to try it, id never done it before, never even tried it on airbag or anything, landed it got it got that gold medal and was on top of the world."

China's two-time gold medallist at Beijing 2022 was also asked about her Olympic future.

"Who knows, honestly, I really love skiing still. It is a very personal and expressive part of me, and I think it makes me who I am. It's taught me resilience, its taught me cross cultural communication. So, in that sense I think, why not, but let’s see how school goes first."

Gu will be attending Stanford University later this year.
