Olympic alpine skier Lindsey Vonn took home the award for Best Female Athlete during last night’s ESPY’s, making it her 2nd straight year to snag the illustrious prize.
“Wow, thank you so much this means so much to me,” the 26-year-old said, according to the U.S. Ski Team website.
While Vonn was honored to be chosen back-to-back, her real “win” came when she finally got to take a photo with teen heartthrob, Justin Bieber – who she is apparently a huge fan of.
After her acceptance speech – she thanked her husband, fans, coaches, and all the regulars – for the Best Female Athelte ESPY, Vonn went public with her ‘Bieber fever,’ by asking the teen pop sensation:
“ Justin Bieber , will you take a picture with me for my Facebook page?”
Bieber, from the audience, laughed and nodded.
Following the photo-op, Lindsey hopped on Twitter and proudly tweeted and Facebooked it, saying:
“I finally got my Justin Bieber pic! ? LV #bieberfever #espys”
It’s safe bet to say that thousands of tween JB fans are jealous of the picture, but Vonn received over 1,100 likes on Facebook after posting it Wednesday night.
