The girls were ushered in during the first song and quickly took their seats. During the performance, they laughed and appeared to enjoy every musical number. Once the girls were spotted at intermission, they received applause from audience members excited to see the Final Five in the crowd.

Aly is pretty amazing herself, taking home one gold and two silver medals during the summer Olympics. Now with the games behind her, the 22-year-old is looking forward to her date with Oakland Raiders tight end Colton Underwood.

The football player, who is a teammate of retired US gymnast Shawn Johnson’s husband Andrew East, asked the champion out on a double date via a video message after congratulating her on her success. After watching the proposal during a Yahoo! Sports interview, Aly said, “He’s very cute,” adding, “I would go on a date with him.”

As far as the date goes, Aly said, according to the New York Post, “If we do know when it’s going to be, I’m not going to tell anyone but we haven’t set a date but it’s really crazy I didn’t expect everyone to find out about it."

She added: “Everyone’s been texting about it so it’s crazy but I’m looking forward to meeting him. I’ve never met him before but Shawn and Andrew have told me about him.”
