Aleah Finnegan
The Fil-Am gymnast is one of the first female Philippine gymnasts in 60 years to punch her Paris ticket and try to spark a Philippine gymnastics turnaround. Her Olympic debut, alongside fellow Fil-Ams Emma Malabuyo and Levi Jung-Ruivivar, is a historic moment—as she well documents on her TikTok platform.
@aleahfinn Happy opening ceremonies to all who celebrate!!

Hergie Bacyadan
The Filipino trans boxer is set for a momentous Olympic debut in Paris. But before that, he has been punching his way to TikTok to show the world some behind-the-scenes content. He vlogged his experience during the parade opening ceremonies, even asking his Filipino compatriots to do the trending “Eyyy” sign and catchphrase.

Samantha Catantan
While we wait for Samantha to wield the fencing sword, she takes a moment to show us some “Act your sport” Filipino Olympic athletes edition. Even the Filipino delegates not active on TikTok get their moment to shine, such as Jarod Hatch, Kayla Sanchez, John Cabang Tolentino, Carlo Paalam, and Elreen Ando.

Levi Jung-Ruivivar
The youngest of the 22-athlete Philippine delegation in Paris, Levi is proud to be donning the Philippine colors as she takes us backstage at the Olympics. Two days ago, she posted her experience in the Olympic Village emergency room due to an allergic reaction to nuts. Documenting the rest of the opening ceremonies, she calls this her, “best experience ever,” with a “LABAN PHILIPPINES” caption.
