Apolo promotes a program called "Math Moves U" and shows middle schoolers how math can be used for fun and good use for any career even speed skating, he uses math to count laps, speed, distance, and calculating angles. if right: roach

Roach was the name Apolo used in his book for the guy who alleged that he participated in fixing a race. Next: Monkey's Armpit

isn't that what len said about entertainers vs athletes... entertainers need to be loved and are always looking for validation, whereas athletes don't give a crap about that, all they want is the win.
next: his perfect race

Apolo referred to his 500-meter gold medal winning race as "the perfect race", and that it was, although he considers any race where the conditions are good and he skates his best to be perfect regardless of outcome. Next: James Holbrook

Apolo said he'd be willing to try something like Fear Factor provided he didn't have to eat roaches. Personally, I'd prefer to see him on something more like Amazing Race Next: Who (besides everyone here) suggested that Apolo skate with the top of his skinsuit unzipped since the ladies love him so much?

Hint: Before they suggested it to him... they tried it themselves. Personally, I wasn't impressed. Apolo would have carried the look much better. Think 2002

Time! I'm sorry guys, I know the questions from 2002 can be a bit rough since not everyone has been aboard the Apolo express that long. It was actually Conan O'Brien (sp). Unable to resist getting in on the act, Conan donned a skinsuit and tried his hand at speedskating. Speeding along at about 2mph. The camera cut from that freaky little scene just as he was unzipping his skinsuit. He then suggested that Apolo wear his that way since he was popular with the ladies. Apolo, who's snappy comeback skills were not nearly as honed as they are now just laughed and declined.
This one should be easier: Young MC

He sang the song Busta Move for their freestyle, he wanted to sing it in person, but he couldn't because they felt the voters might be influenced to vote for A/J, but he was in the audience, invited by Apolo at the finale??

Years ago, Apolo skidded on black ice and rolled the SUV he was driving in with Shani. Amazingly, neither guy was seriously hurt. Thank goodness for seatbelts, and whatever angels were riding in the back seat! Next: Florence Henderson. As a bonus, please try to quote her. I can't hear that enough

Thanks Number1! I love it! It was so Un-Carol Brady! I'll let someone else tackle Macy Gray, but to cut down on confusion, Macy is a "she". Carry on...
