She was born in Philadelphia, lived in New Jersey and Sugar Land, Texas. At the age of 14, Tara Lipinski won the World Figure Skating Championships, beating her fierce rival, Michelle Kwan. The next year, in 1998, she beat Kwan again to win the Olympic Gold, the youngest ever in skating history. Once known for her triple-jumps, Tara now walks the Red Carpet, working everything from the Academy Awards to the Kentucky Derby. Starting this week, she and her fellow champion and fashionista, Johnny Weir, will bring their fun and expertise to NBC's coverage of the Olympic Games.
