Thank you 👏🏽
Yess! We Caribbean people are ONE. We are always happy for each other! This is a win for the Caribbean! All of us!
Same suh, she made the whole caribbean proud! Congrats Alred!!!
Same here,,,none the less she’s from the Caribbean!! Let’s goooo!!❤
Yes, same here!! Big up St. Lucia & the Caribbean! ❤
I am a Black American, and despite Shacarri's 2nd place finish, I am very, very happy for my sister Julien and the bronze medalist as well. There is no Carribean/ Jamaican vs U.S. thing with me. Just beautiful, competing Black sisters who happen to dominate the sprints (thank you Mother Africa). Congrats St. Lucia.
Amen
This should be pinned ❤
@@omarjohnson9010 I'm proud when Black Americans, Africans, Afro Carribbeans have one recognise one African identity.
@@omarjohnson9010 I couldn't have said that any better
Beautifully said. ❤ As a Caribbean national, I couldn't agree more.
She woke up in the morning and wrote it down, she believed in herself and knew her country was fully behind her. She made her written statement a reality. A true sports personality. Congratulations🎉 . This win is epic 🥇🎊🎉
That's Cap. Everybody can wake up and manifests what they want. This girl took a substance or steroids.
@@terencejones5649 no she didnt get tht smut off her name shes the world indoor 50 & 60 m champion. She won world championships last year. Broke 9 Ncaa records last szn at Texas and was undefeated last szn. She didnt come out of nowhere, she been outside. Give respect where its due
@@turnpike_sime9897 thats right tell them. Put the due respect on Julien's name. She worked hard to earn it. It didnt happen overnight. These are the same stupid comments we saw when Bolt came on the scene. No worries Julien will show them in the 200M on Tuesday.
yeeeeeeeeees! I love this! I am so glad she said it aloud!!!! Know what you want, write it down, and believe it...and then BOOM! 🏃♀👟

St. Lucia 758 🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨
Congratulations to your country woman Ms Alfred winning 🇯🇲
Congrats on St. Lucia getting the gold today.
I saw Julien Alfred getting a medal on the podium today.
And I must also say St. Lucia produces some very beautiful women- from Ms. Alfred to yourself Nina
As a fellow St Lucian, Im extremely proud of her
Congratulations to St. Lucia I can’t wait to watch the celebrations unfold as you welcome her home.
Congratulations Alfred big up from Jamaica 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
A BIG CONGRATULATIONS JULIEN!
A Gold for St Lucia is a Gold for the Caribbean.
🇧🇧 🇧🇧 🇧🇧
@@angelhumble7250 I concur! I'm a Lucian, but I am Caribbean.All a we are one.
From a small Caribbean island ( 7 times British, 7 times French), to a state of independence, here we are today! Thank you for bringing Saint Lucia its first Olympic medal. You were truly divinely purposed for this historical moment. Thank you! We love and salute you! ❤🎉
@@user-dv4xe2bq4o
St Lucia ISN'T independent
@@Zion-yl9mo you holding saint Lucia in bondage?
By independent they mean independent from Great Britain for the past 45 years…
@@letstapin1602
The system's that were left by the colonists and the recent Caucasian Prime minister are keeping St Lucia in bondage.
@@norviliaetienne222
It's not independent in any way. St Lucia depends heavily on tourism from England. There's no decision that can be made by any of the slave colonies in the Caribbean without taking all the signed conventions into consideration. Independence is an illusion.
Why these questions keep asking her about the other ladies?? Juju still answered so gracefully!!!!🎉 Congratulations girl!
Agreed. Classy and professional answers
And the other ladies didn’t even turn up for the presser why ask her about people who decided not to show up
Yes, that lady in the white shirt. Her questions were so irrelevant
She could have stayed in the cafeteria
Thats how winners win. They focus on improving themselves and not be toxic to other athletes. Well done Queen. Congratulations
Congratulations from Barbados sooooo very proud of you, St. Lucia we are extremely happy for you.
Thank you for sharing in our glory!
This is what I love about the Caribbean. ❤
Yes we are proud as a Caribbean ppl to witness this. Congrats as a Bajan Barbados 🇧🇧.
Ppl been condensing
This the first time I have heard Julien speak. She's a silent assasin, she allows talent to do all the talking Congrats Julien! You are an amazing athlete. Sincerely track and Field Aficionado and USA citizen. Its all love here.
I'm happy for Julien... love from Jamaica 🇯🇲
It simply wasn't Sha'Carri's time to win gold. Julien Alfred is the gold medalist today. Congrats to Julien!
It probably won’t be her time ever. 🤔
@@LADYG-gl1jxshe’s won many Golds, how about you? Hater
@kennethjackson9288 not an Olympic gold...
@@kennethjackson9288 Sha’Carri has ZERO golds. What are you even babbling about?
@@kennethjackson9288yes. Now four major international championship medals. She is 24. Another Olympics will be hard. She will probably go down in history as possibly the most talented 100 m female sprinter who doesn’t have any championship title to show.
So refreshing to see another Caribbean win.... So happy... Go St. Lucia
Congratulations to St Lucia 🇱🇨. This is epic, first medal for St Lucia 🇱🇨. and its gold.
Humility is the key !!!!!!!!
Thank you very much..
yes thank you ❤ we are a humble people she's showing our nature as a people and we are bound to go far due to that quality in anything we do st.lucia dominates in other arenas as well we are just unheard of due to our humble nature ❤🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨
We are so proud of you, Julien. Sending love from the 🇹🇹 massive. The Caribbean is so very happy for you and the beautiful island of St Lucia. 🇱🇨
She is so articulate, congrats well deserved. This is one athlete who runs with her feet and does not run her mouth. God loves when you are humble.
Articulate?? Expand your universe 🧌🧌
finally my little island getting some global visibility 🇱🇨 ! Congrats Juju!
Congrats Julien you made the Caribbean proud. Thanks for keeping it in the region.
Lack of class from the ‘reporters’ .. biggest moment of her life and only one opened their question with a congratulations
Spoke well we are so proud 🇱🇨
😮yess we are.. 🇬🇩 ❤ 🇱🇨
True. Handled those distracting questions well. Honestly journalists do better.
Nuff love from 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲 lets keep it in the carribean.
@@patriciaburgess2122 yes 👍 keep the gold in the Caribbean. Congrats St. Lucian. Love straight from yard.🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Congratulations to Julien Alfred! I knew you had it.. Blessings from Guyana 🇬🇾 and the UK 🇬🇧. We know you will medal for the 200m as well! 🙏🏽❤️
When you have a pleasant personality, it shows. So modest and speaks very respectful.
Proud of you. Congratulations.
It's a breath of fresh air.
Yes it is a breath of fresh air
That's how we Lucians are.
😂 Yesss .. no arrogance & showing off.. just *PURE HUMILITY*
GO Alfred congratulations 🎊 👏 💐 🥳
❤ 🇱🇨 🇬🇩 ❤
@@querrythis yes! Her humility shines through. I’m so happy for her!!
Julien Alfred is the new undisputed 100m sprint queen. A worthy successor to Shelley Ann Fraser-Pryce and a gift to clean sportsmanship!
@@matomeleseilane8129 Undisputed?! Sha’Carri holds the record with a 10.65. Alfred ran a 10.72. Hell of a race for her, but not faster than a 10.65.
@@jjdynomite652610.65 is last year and that was WC. SHE BEAT SHACCARI FAIR and SQUARE.
@@jjdynomite652610.72 in the rain is damn impressive tho
Us fan girls still crying
@@jjdynomite6526True, a little over the top but records come and go. She & Sha'carri are both young, so I'm sure there is room for improvement in both their pb times. However, no one can take away her Olympic medal and it's the standard athletes are measured by. It was refreshing to see her humility and pride.
If Jamaica is not going to win/medal, this is the next best result. Congratulations Julien! The execution was consistently solid! Well done! 🇱🇨
Yes we are ONE in the Caribbean!
She definitely will be a force for years to come! She DEFINITELY built different!!! Amazing Work!!!❤❤❤
Well deserved medal. She worked for it. She is a true Olympian, she seems very humble.
👏👏👏
@@Carolyn-vh4nzAgreed 💯 percent. Peace ✌️🕊️.
Well said, she surely built different! What an amazing day for her! 🎉🎉❤❤ I’m so over the moon for her.
I am an Jamaican and am so happy for St Lucian. So am sad it's not Jamaica again but I am 100% happy I see the 100-meter stayed in the Caribbean 👏🙏🙏. One love and congratulations Julien❤️
This is for the Caribbean ❤
Congratulations to her. She made history for her country
Beautiful answer to racing beside Richardson
Yup..
*I focus on ME*
I jus love her mentality, she think about herself and her to execute everything. Don't care who's running next to her or who's sitting next to her, or wat happened to the rest.
"It's my first time here, so I don't now what to expect." Don't put words in her mouth. She's focused on Julien Alfred, not on the silver and bronze medallists.
😂
Yesss.. love her response..
At the same time, those reporters should take note and see how disrespectful it is for Sha’Carri and Melissa to not show up.
If you want to ask (because you actually know the answer), then run a story on the level of disrespect being shown by them for not showing up.
I was wondering why there were so many seats. Wow, that’s quite upsetting that they wouldn’t show up. At the same time, I’m glad Julien got her flowers and got the spotlight she deserves.
@@MartineCloutier-LeBlanc-pl2pr It was her moment. She made history. Showing up would take away from that. Carri & Co already know how reporters like to twist narratives and cause unnecessary strife for attention, so they didn't show up. Simple
@@hazelgriffith4515 l love how she brilliantly answered them and she did it with elegance and grace .
Congratulations Julien 👏🥰❤️. Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬❤️
Im Jamaican but Im so happy for her !!!🌟🌟🌟🎊🎊🎊 Big up Julien !
I cried watching you capture the first medal for our Simply Beautiful St.Lucia!! Words can not convey the pride and joy that I feel. Congratulations, Julian Alfred🎉🎉🎉🎉
Such a humble yet beautiful young lady. Congratulations Julien. I am really loving how you are handling the questions. You did amazing !! Loads of respect and support from Jamaica 🇯🇲 🎉🎉🎉👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Yes she is correct
@NyteRazor our first gold but certainly not our last...she's blessed and highly favored...she's well set by the grace of God...
@@claramitchel2202 It was funny how Jamaica wasn't there and USA still lost gold to Caribbean island.

We also have 2 Nobel laureates. We now have an olympic champion

I am so proud of you, Julien!! You make all St. Lucians worldwide sooo proud!! Congratulations, you’re amazing!!🥇💛🇱🇨💙🇱🇨
Until yesterday, I hadn't heard of Ms. Alfred or St. Lucia. Today, everyone is googling Julien and St. Lucia. For the record, she was actually the third favorite according to the bookies. Congratulations!
You a casual track fan 😂
Real track fans knew her. She been a force in NCAAs too.
@@markc915 I understand that. And the media wanted it so. This young woman is well known even in the US. She ran for Texas university and is an absolute power house. She actually break the NCAA record in 60 m 7 times. She holds the fastest 60m in ncaa history. How she was not being talked about enough is truly shocking to me.
She also spent two years at one of Jamaica's high schools in her senior years at the secondary level.
You must have been living under a rock. Real track fans know she’s been around. She’s a multi NCAA Champ, world indoor champ and bowerman winner
Beautiful st Lucia to the world in all factors. Let’s go Lucia.
I am so proud of Juju and the way you answered your questions makes us Saint Lucians so proud.
Congratulations Julien! Much love from this Bajan 🇧🇧! The islands continue to dominate the 100m!
Honoured to be an ambassador of her St Lucia! You ARE helping to put St Lucia 'on the map'!

As soon as I saw how Julian was shredded at approx. A couple of months back, I KNEW! Her form reminded me if the first time Shericka won the Jamaican trials 100m. As I watched the semifinal my mind was made up!
MY WONDERFUL EMPRESS YOU DESERVE THIS WIN! SO HAPPY FOR YOU.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
