The most awe-inspiring moment of the Olympics happened on Colton Haynes’s Snapchat.

Former Teen Wolf and Arrow star Colton Haynes definitely knows how to get in the Olympic spirit. Fans who follow Haynes on Snapchat were treated to a must-see video of the actor on Friday night. Dressed in very fitted white pants and a red polo in honor of Team USA, Haynes performed a glorious booty roll while watching coverage of the Olympic opening ceremony.

One of Haynes’s fans saw a remix in the making and set the actor’s original Snapchat video to Christina Aguilera’s “Dirrty,” complete with gratuitous slow motion and zoom-ins on the epic dance.

The 28-year-old heartthrob came out as gay publicly in May 2016. While Haynes was out to friends and family, having his sexual orientation in the spotlight wasn’t always an easy process. The actor briefly stepped away from his career to focus on treating his anxiety, but during that time a Tumblr post about racy modeling photos and Haynes’s "secret gay past" pushed him back into the spotlight when Haynes coyly replied, "Was it a secret?"

The pressure for Haynes to make a more official statement was overwhelming. "I should have made a comment or a statement, but I just wasn’t ready. I didn’t feel like I owed anyone anything. I think in due time, everyone has to make those decisions when they’re ready, and I wasn’t yet. But I felt like I was letting people down by not coming forward with the rest of what I should have said," he told Entertainment Weekly.

After officially coming out, things seem to be looking up for Haynes. "It took me so long to get to this point, but I’m doing so good," said Haynes. "I’m happier than I’ve ever been, and healthier than I’ve ever been, and that’s what I care about." Earlier this week, the the actor tweeted about finally being able to be himself.

Colton Haynes will appear in the second season of the Fox horror comedy Scream Queens, but we also can’t help but hope the Olympics will recognize booty rolling as an official sport so Haynes can take his career in an entirely different direction.
