Mikaela Shiffrin recently revealed some highlights of her week, including an NBC photoshoot for Team USA’s social media and her debut performance on The Voice. Shiffrin attended The Voice season 27 finale on May 20, 2025.

A few days before her debut, Shiffrin uploaded a video of herself singing Anna Nalick’s Breathe, enticing fans with something new. During her final episode, Shiffrin was seen teaching skiing basics to The Voice coaches Michael Bublé and Kelsey Ballerini in exchange for musical performances.

The three-time Olympic medallist was also spotted expressing her enthusiasm for the future 2026 Winter Olympics, which will be held in Milan-Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy. She also took part in the NBC photoshoot for Team USA’s 2026 Winter Olympic squad at Universal Studios Hollywood. In one of the photographs, she was seen posing for a shot next to a large Olympic sign while wearing a black t-shirt, blue jeans and Adidas trainers.

“Oh my goodness, what a week!!” Thank you, @NBCOlympics, @NBCTheVoice, and @teamUSA! Can’t believe @milanocortina2026 is just around the corner. 🇮🇹🍝👀.”

The 2026 Winter Olympics are planned to begin on February 6, 2026 and end on February 22, 2026.

Mikaela Shiffrin had a roller-coaster season in 2024-25, suffering from damaged oblique muscles, a crash in training, and being diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder following a terrible fall. The Olympian reflected on her season, acknowledging the highs and lows.

“(Win No. 100 on Feb. 23) was like this reset moment, and 101 is like a restart almost,” Shiffrin pointed out. “That’s the way I’m trying to see it. Hopefully, my career has a long future ahead of it.
“This (season) has been quite a roller coaster,” she said. “There have been some incredibly exciting times, as well as occasions when I’ve wondered if I should even be in this sport. I know that if I keep working hard, even on difficult days, I will be able to feel like myself again. But you have to start somewhere, and for me, returning to racing this season is just the start.” (via nbcsports.com)
