Adam Rippon, an Olympic medalist, Dancing With the Stars champion and master of playgrounds, is the creative and optimistic person 2018 needs. Luckily for Adweek, he stopped by the Creative 100 celebration, presented by Screenvision Media, Tuesday evening at the Cannes Lions festival to chat with Lisa Granatstein, editor and vp of content and events.

Rippon discussed possible brand sponsorships, how he developed an interest in skating (sorry, baseball) and why athletes should stand for causes they believe in.
