They had a moment on the carpet last night at the Global Leadership Awards Gala as Lochte let Jay wear his medals and Jay let Lochte be cool standing next to him.
Jay was honoured by the UN for his work in Africa supporting clean water efforts:
"I went to Africa, spent a couple weeks in Angola. A bunch of different places. That was the whole thing for me. I've given to charities in the past and you close your eyes and cross your fingers and hope that the money gets there. With this I got to go to Africa, I got to see the water pumps, I got to touch it. I got to see the kids turn them on. Tonight, I don't know what I'm doing here, I'm rewarded already."
Jay’s wife Beyonce was not with him but apparently she was top of mind. He told reporters that "most people I guess dream of having a family some day, so I'm just a regular American boy." And so begins Beyonce bumpwatch.
As for Ryan Lochte, as you can see, as is plainly obviously, as far as the loins are concerned, yes I was a dumbass blinded by gold.
Lochte > Phelps
And he’s a chill dude too. Not a dorky spread-footed cheeseball with bad taste in clothing. Ew Michael Phelps!
Have you seen this commercial?
What the F&CK is he wearing???
