Julia garnered alot of media attention from the Russian media
same with Gracie who was featured in NBC as the American Golden Girl
Dude, I am sorry, but no one in the USA knows who Gracie Gold is. If I flashed her picture in a skating outfit there might be some cursory recognition in SOME (far far from all) people but that's it.
I get that you really are jizzing for her, but you have a ridiculous and inflated sense of what she has done for skating's popularity in the USA. You spouted off a few days ago about all her endorsements. When some people in the USA said the only one they'd seen was the United commercial (it's the only one I've seen in the USA too) you of course had no answer.
Gracie MAY be the next big thing, but she hasn't arrived popularity wise just because she won nationals. To the average American she is still no one and she has a long road ahead before she reaches a Kwan or even Cohen level in terms of recognition. .
