As Italy’s women’s artistic gymnastics team makes headlines for nabbing the silver medal in Tuesday’s all-around final, team member Giorgia Villa made waves for an entirely different reason: a cheesy sponsorship. In a move that absolutely could not be more on brand, the Italian gymnast is sponsored by Parmigiano Reggiano.
Word of the athlete’s sponsorship spread on social media following the medal ceremony, after one X (formerly Twitter) user posted: “I need the people to know that olympic silver medalist giorgia villa is sponsored by parmesan cheese and regularly posts pics of herself with giant wheels of cheese.”
