Who Will Skate at the Gala?

[screech]

Love Mirai's dress, though I wish it didn't have the completely unnecessary flesh coloured fabric.

Why did Mirai ditch her energetic and sassy Seven Day Fool routine for Generic Ballad No. 4? Major downgrade. Seven Day Fool was even sung by a Canadian.

I daresay this program from DomShabs is as much of an insult to rubber fetishists stuck in the 90's as their OD is to Australian aborigines.

Hey, DR, i don't think this comment is up to your usual level of snarkiness!

I am guessing that Cirque de Soleil will also be there.

NBC has only managed to show exhibitions by Joannie and Evgeni . . . this has to be the most horrible coverage of figure skating in the history of the Olympic Games.

I just have to ask... what's up with the dangly thingies on Lamby's shirt?

[ImaginaryPogue]

Lambiel was exquisite.

Here's how the Child to Champion thing should have been done:

First it starts with underachieving parents who want to live vicariously through their child. Little girl cries and says "I don't want to skate", the mom drags her to the rink anyway. Spotlight switches. She's now a teenager, she looks in the mirror and pinches her fat and makes a look of disgust. Spotlight switches, she's in a cast and missing her most important competition. Then, a year later, she does make it to the meet, where she comes in 13th. Cut to a middle-aged woman with arthritis who shudders every time she looks at anything frozen.

You are on a roll. I'm amused.
