Eileen Gu Respond Criticism on Social Media after Winning Gold at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics

I’m not trying to keep anyone happy. I’m an 18-year-old girl out here living my best life. I’m having a great time. It doesn’t really matter if other people are happy or not. Because I feel as though I am doing my best, I am enjoying the entire process, and I’m using my voice to create as much positive change as I can for the voices who will listen to me in an area that is personal and relevant to myself, so I know that I have a good heart, I know that, my reasons for making the decisions I do are based on a greater common interest. So if other people don’t really believe that that’s where I’m coming from, then that just reflects that they do not have the empathy to empathize with a good heart. So yeah if people don’t believe me and if people don’t like me, then that’s their loss.
