Utah Gymnastics Nationals Leo Inspired By Alicia Keys Super Bowl Outfit
Apr 18, 2024, 5:12 PM
FORT WORTH, TX – The Red Rocks are about to take the stage at their 48th straight Nationals and decided to celebrate the occasion with a new leo.
Utah took inspiration for their new uniform from singer and songwriter Alicia Keys. Keys recently took to the Super Bowl halftime show stage as a guest during Usher’s set, wearing a red, sparkly costume.
Appropriately, the Red Rocks have dubbed the new leo “Girl On Fire”- a nod to the fact it is bright “Utah” red and paying homage to one of Keys’ more famous tunes.
