Laurie Hernandez was a member of the “Final Five”, the Team USA gymnastics team who dominated at the Rio Olympics. At 16 years old, she’s one of the best gymnasts in the world. She won a silver medal for the women’s balance beam event and a team gold medal for the women’s team all-around event.
What many people may not know about Laurie, however, is that she’s also a living, breathing, walking emoji. If you read about the team meeting Zac Efron then you may have caught a glimpse of it, but not like this. Here she is imitating several popular emojis.
Walking Emoji? Here’s The Cheesing Smiley
The Winking Kiss
The Epic Blush
The Tongue-Out Wink
The Uncertain Side-Eyed Look
The Deep In Thought Look
The Shocked Look
The OMG Face
The “I’m Cool” Look
The Close-Eyed Smiley

These are so close, aren’t they? When she eventually finishes her gymnastics career perhaps she can take this act on the road and be a stand-up emojienne.
