Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman was all open chest with millions watching her yesterday. The 26-year-old former athlete, making a rare live television appearance, featured on "The Today Show" with Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager on Wednesday, choosing a head-turning pink open jacket look despite the interview coming as a home video one. Aly, best known for being both the 2012 "Fierce Five" and 2016 "Final Five" captain, addressed her retirement, and she equally got fans hot under the collar. Check it out below.

Scroll for the outfit and the killer bikini body. Aly, who generally takes a gentle approach with her 2.1 million Instagram followers – it's more hoodies than leotards – was all dressed up and looking her best. The Boston resident's hot pink jacket was a suave finish as she went plunging in a black tank, with the unbuttoned look flattering the star as she spoke of both her 2016 retirement and mental health – Raisman openly battles her anxiety on social media.

Aly, who happily chatted with "The Today Show" hosts, was shouted out via the series' Instagram, with a video of the live TV moment captioned:

"@alyraisman joins us to talk about her wellness journey following her career as a gymnast. She also reacts to ESPN’s male-dominated image depicting athletes they call the “GOAT” after her former teammate, Simone Biles, weighed in on it. She then answers questions from young gymnasts."

Aly, lately in the news for everything from her gardening and Pilates to her Silk Milk promos, has been attracting comments.

Support doesn't take long for Raisman, who last year admitted she could barely "walk" after an especially low period that followed the 2016 Olympics. The Aerie spokesperson now sees viewers thanking her for broaching mental health, with one writing:

"This was a wonderful interview for us. Please continue to follow the Team as we move closer to the Summer Games. ❤️"

Aly's approach to mental health is unique, as is her adorable gardening, even if she planted her melons way too early last year. See her bikini body after the video!

Aly isn't stripped down all too often, although she has made 2021 headlines for a hot tub workout, one that came with a bubblegum-pink bikini. The latest showoff came as a spandex one, with Aly partnering up with swimming Olympian Michael Phelps for a promo that asked fans for a "sweaty selfie." The steely gymnast showed off her massive squats and insane lunges while home on a yoga mat, and she also got paid for it.
