IKR? And old woman with a fangirl crush. She's the Greek Goddess sprung to life. She's certainly worthy of a Wonder Woman movie. Her voice is fantastic. Wonder if she read her own book on audio. I'll buy it & give it to my granddaughter. I'll let you know. I'm going to need a copy of that statue ~ I'll be writing a new character into my next goddesses, witches & saints book for my granddaughter. But she won't be getting that statue. LOL
SC native, USC grad, and USC employee here - we are so proud of you A’ja!!!! Thank you both for representing South Carolina so humbly, intelligently, and passionately ♥️🖤♥️
A’ja, your message of believing in and caring for yourself, loving others and putting one foot in front of the other on the pathway of life-is for ALL women and men. I am a white woman in my seventies, doing some healing now, and seeing you on Colbert today had me weeping and knowing that-YES WE CAN❤ Thanks for your inspiration. Gotta get your book ❤
Delightful interview. Smiled all the way though. Colbert can make any interview interesting and she has a sparkling, positive vibe. I didn't know who she was, but now I'm a fan.
I've been fangirling her myself. Wonder Woman? Greek Goddess sprung to life? Barbie 2? Her voice, her poise & that dress! This old white granny is thrilled with her. My grandchild has her 'Yaya' on her wrist too.
Wow Stephen has a formidable (undefeated?) record now at wastepaper basketball. I feel like early on he'd just get lucky but by now he's got experience.
What an incredible woman! Goddess for dang sure. Her voice! Marvel? Barbie 2? Aquaman's Jason Mamoa & Asia the magnificent? New granny crone girl crush! I want a copy of that Asia statue! I'll be naming a new character after her but first this old white woman needs to buy the book. I have added quite a few new fangirl crushes this month. Thank you Stephen & crew.
As a huge Aja fan, to learn some personal things about this Queen is truly amazing.. All girls and women and men should learn Grace and class from her..❤ example
@@helenoftroy1227 I hear you! She's incredible! And I'm not even jealous, she worked for those legs, that brain & is using the entire package, bless her. Ok. A little envy but mostly I'm thrilled for her.
She's a KILLER on the court, a sweetheart off the court. Jerry Rice vibes maybe? Jerry DOMINATED as the GOAT of his position as WR and was a true gentlemen off the field. EVERYONE loves Jerry Rice (even Cowboy fans) and every WNBA fan has to appreciate A'ja Wilson.
G dang, she’s inspiring. As a 5 foot 7 inch white guy, I’ll keep putting one foot in front of the other, though I’ll probably never make it to the WNBA, I’ll probably not make it to the NBA either but I’ll keep putting that one foot in front of the other.
I'm here after she said Caitlin Clark's fame was racist. Given how rational she seems here, it's really surprising she would say that. The compliments in the comments are multi-racial based on avatars. In other words, talent is respected regardless of appearance. Larry Bird was legit good even though he wasn't pretty. So race really doesn't matter where talent is concerned, or where fandom occurs.
she is incredibly rational & she's kind of right....a lot of nuance to that conversation tho us being here sort of proves her point I (still) won't be watching any wnba games...even if they can somehow overcome their petty gatekeeping bullsh!t
"You gotta go through it to grow through it." Brilliant, wonderful role model for all girls (and boys too).

You know she’s a racist black supremacist, right?
OMG! What an astonishing human! Her intellect, her talent, her grace, her beauty.
We love her here in Vegas. She is amazing!!

And he can also be an unfunny jerk.
"Adversity is like fertilizer for greatness."
beautifully phrased statement.
Compost Happens.
That’s profound🍀
God, she's stunning. Beautiful and intelligent - a deadly combination.
I'm an old white woman & :I've got a new fangirl crush!

She is spot-on about adversity💯
As outfits go, this one was perfect for A'ja. She looked stunning, and also she's such a charming and genuine soul.

That yellow is perfect for her. Positive vibes from New Hampshire, remember to be kind to each other and yourself during these trying times.

Wow Stephen has a formidable (undefeated?) record now at wastepaper basketball. I feel like early on he'd just get lucky but by now he's got experience.
The man is a writer, I feel he's had a lifetime's worth of experience at throwing screwed up pieces of paper into wastepaper baskets. 😁
What an amazing and inspiring woman!
You can tell she appreciates life and knows she's truly blessed.
What a woman!
The true face of the W...Beauty, charisma, well spoken warm spirit true leader....Difference between over hype and true substance.

“Waking up every day with a smile on your face is a win in itself.”
Love that
Love me some A’ja Wilson! Getting her book ASAP! Also can’t wait for the WNBA season to start. Let’s go Las Vegas Aces!
This book is outstanding! It's so honest and unapologetic!! It gives us permission to feel, to think, and just BE!!! MVP!!!
Stephen’s joy on winning was superb lol what a wonderful soul she is this was so lovely !!
A'ja is a superstar! 😍🤩
Amazing story, beautiful person and spirit. And flat out baller! She should have knocked over his bowl! 😂🤣😂
I'm really starting to gravitate towards this woman!!

Right!! Be yourself it will pay off in the long run!!

Her contralto is so velvety.
Yes! I love her speaking voice. Very pleasing to listen to!
She’s incredible ❤
Aja is absolutely gorgeous 😍
What an incredible woman! Goddess for dang sure. Her voice! Marvel? Barbie 2? Aquaman's Jason Mamoa & Asia the magnificent?
New granny crone girl crush! I want a copy of that Asia statue! I'll be naming a new character after her but first this old white woman needs to buy the book.
I have added quite a few new fangirl crushes this month. Thank you Stephen & crew.
Wow 😮 She’s gorgeous inside and *out* Thank you ☺️
I love A'ja so much not only a MVP but a class act.
What a lovely lady! My youngest granddaughter struggles with dyslexia too.
“To thine own self be true”.
The face of Women’s basketball.
I've never watched Women's basketball I think.
A'ja Wilson c'est une reine légendaire en NBA et l'histoire en NBA parlera ton nom plus inchallahu ❤❤❤❤❤
Generational Talent 🥳
I obviously don't get out enough because I never heard of A'ja Wilson.
🤯
What a magnificent person!
I never heard of her either. You're not the only one.
What a lovely Sista'! ❤
Goshs she's a charmer
As a huge Aja fan, to learn some personal things about this Queen is truly amazing..
All girls and women and men should learn Grace and class from her..❤ example
Her and Sydney Colson crack me up together.
Wow, Wow, Wow. Legs!
IKR? Stunning & her voice! I have her as a Greek Goddess. Wonder Woman springs to life & saves democracy.
The new Goddess Queen Nefertiti.
IKR! Listen! If I had legs like A’ja Wilson, you couldn’t tell me nothing. I’d be soooo obnoxious. That’s why I’m 5’3”. 😂🤣🫣
@@helenoftroy1227 I hear you! She's incredible! And I'm not even jealous, she worked for those legs, that brain & is using the entire package, bless her. Ok. A little envy but mostly I'm thrilled for her.
Yay, nice Steely Dan Aja … and great guest
Glad I wasn’t the only one who caught the intro music reference.
She is a great player and a likable person. Easy to root for.
Love you so much 😘😘 Aja Wilson
Asia! She's so gorgeous and gracious! I just love her
I'm thrilled with her too. Wonder Woman saves democracy & America. Her voice too! Gobsmacked.
KILLER outfit!
She have understand what life is
I love u A’ja but I am from the better Carolina of the North ❤. Our BBQ is loved around the world just like u. NC folk love u too
She's a KILLER on the court, a sweetheart off the court. Jerry Rice vibes maybe? Jerry DOMINATED as the GOAT of his position as WR and was a true gentlemen off the field. EVERYONE loves Jerry Rice (even Cowboy fans) and every WNBA fan has to appreciate A'ja Wilson.
Lmao no. I’d destroy her one on one and I never played beyond high school
Beautiful lady 😊
What a resplendent young lady.
That was a fun and informative interview. Looking forward to reading the book and getting it for my nieces, too!
Great interview! I’m buying the book. ❤️
She's amazing, good job SC
my friend Aja is also named after the Steely Dan song
G dang, she’s inspiring. As a 5 foot 7 inch white guy, I’ll keep putting one foot in front of the other, though I’ll probably never make it to the WNBA, I’ll probably not make it to the NBA either but I’ll keep putting that one foot in front of the other.
Beautiful ❤
Love her!!
This woman is a Boss
Good natured,smart & talented. I wish girls in the Third World are touched by such treasures if the opportunity presents itself.
A'ja ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Much ❤❤❤ from 🌙🌴 *SC* 🏖
Cheers! Good stuff.
