It looks like Laurie Hernandez has yet another reason to smile. Procter & Gamble announced on Thursday that they have tapped the 16-year-old gymnastics superstar to be their new Crest athlete and an ambassador for the brand’s Orgullosa platform, which was created to celebrate and empower Latinas. The news comes a little over a week after the U.S. women’s gymnastics team won gold at the 2016 Games in Rio de Janeiro, and three days after the New Jersey native snagged a silver medal in the women’s beam final. This is such an exciting time for me and I’m so proud, Orgullosa (proud), to be a Crest athlete,” Hernandez said a statement released by P&G. As I prep for the competition, I always count on Crest products to keep my smile radiant and flawless on and off the mat.”
