The Emmys red carpet was filled with dazzling diamonds and glamorous gowns Sunday night, but Paralympian Jessica Long [1] had the finest piece of jewellery in sight: a gold medal from the Tokyo Games. The well-decorated American swimmer posed for pictures at the award ceremony rocking one of her many medals from the Tokyo Paralympics. During the ceremony, Jessica was also joined by Olympian Allyson Felix [2] as they presented an award together on stage. Talk about a dynamic duo!
Since competing in her first Paralympics at just 12 years old in 2004, Jessica has won an impressive 29 medals [3], including the six she most recently took home from Tokyo. So, of course her new shiny gold had to make a red carpet appearance! Check out the fabulous photos of Jessica at the Emmys with her gold medal ahead.
