U.S. Olympic medalist Adam Rippon appeared on THE LATE SHOW WITH STEPHEN COLBERT last night, March 7. Adam knows that no matter what happens, whether it's during a skating routine or a late night talk show, he has a cute stomach. Watch the clip below!

Adam Rippon is an American figure skater. He took bronze in the team event at the 2018 Winter Olympics and won the 2010 Four Continents Championships and the 2016 U.S. National Championships. Earlier in his career, he won the 2008 and 2009 World Junior Championships, the 2007-08 Junior Grand Prix Final, and the 2008 U.S junior national title. Rippon was selected to represent the United States at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea.

At the 2018 Winter Olympics, Rippon won a bronze medal as part of the FIGURE SKATING team event, thus becoming the first openly gay U.S. male athlete to win a medal in a Winter Olympics.
