And Yana shows off her skating skills - https://instagram.com/p/3BZZBElSKo/ Now I've been trying to do this at the rink myself...alas I'm unable to squat even half way without my heels threatening to lift up and topple me face first on the ice. Damn you tight hamstrings!!!
Just out of curiosity, does doing this on-ice require you to be able to do it off-ice, or is it entirely different? :think:

I'm not sure...I can't do it off ice either! :eek:hwell: I guess it would be helpful to be able to do it off ice though...make it more stable. Perhaps this is a question for the Lutz forum! :biggrin:

Apologies for the double post--saw this just now. Snow King won the Best Show award: https://instagram.com/p/3CGdnIFSHY/ :cheer:

Gooooo Plushy! :cheer: Although now it's even sadder that we're not getting a chance (it would seem) to see Snow King!

ETA: Another pic! Dima feels a bit left out - https://instagram.com/p/3CKSv-ifQI/

It certainly helps. But I can't do it off ice, either. :p

I love Yana's dress. It's so cute!

Well, I'm relieved to hear I'm not totally alone in my sad inability to do it...well, I think I could sort of do it way back when...maybe my leg stretching at the gym will pay off one day.

Anyway, Yana's also working on spins! https://instagram.com/p/3BlSbyFSOg/and whatever this move is: https://instagram.com/p/3BfDzdlSDM maybe she's working towards a bit-part in Snow King 2

I hope she won't skate in SK2. Each person need to do their job in that show ;) But probably she will be on ice in November, they will celebrate Plushy's birthday on ice.

Figure skater Plushenko beat Dima Bilan and Polina Gagarina in the fight for the prize RuTV

Kind of ironic...incidentally, it was 7 years ago today that Dima (with the support of Edvin, Plushy, and Yana) won Eurovision! And history was written...

I don't know I'm happy or not...:laugh: I was sarcastic..I'm really happy. But I know his Russian haters. They will say Plushy is a showman in Russian showbusiness. :rolleye: They said this absurdity not once. Before and after Sochi. In this thread we shared almost all news about him. Do you think he is a showman who is working in the Russian showbusiness or an athlete who is a part of a Russian showbusiness because of Yana? He doesn't do anything in it, just sometimes he goes with Yana some great events what are really important for Yana. Or he is nominated...They made a worldclass and unique ice show-what is his job- and he won the award because he got the most votes from the Russians.
When I read that he is already a showman I thought: it's good for the Russians they have such a great showbusiness! The members can do quad combo, perfect 3As, they are living a healthy life: trainings almost every day, other sports, no alcohol, ( no drugs, of course) wake up early, diet and so on... His Russian haters had some other absurdities..
-For example he wants to compete because of the money..They don't know if he doesn't compete he earns much more money on the shows. I think he is one of the most expensive skaters( if he is not) for the shows. Edvin said in an interview ( he laughed) Plushy is very very expensive.. (Maybe this is the reason why he doesn't perform in North-America, they're not going to pay that much, Plushy does not go to skate cheaply. Ari is a great agent.)
-Plushy lost his fans in Russia because of Sochi scandal..He lost fans but he remained the most popular athlete in 2014.
-No one will curious of Snow King show. Cca 120000-130000 viewers have seen it . Plus the viewers in Sochi.. so cca 140 000 in total.
-their marriage is just a PR action:disapp: ( the Russian learned this word "PR". And they use it every time. Do you know that Plushy did three PR actions in the last week? First he showed his practice videos on Instagram, second he showed that picture when he and his father planted apple tree and third he won the award in yesterday... Ok, maybe this is PR actions, but who has Instagram and Twitter account makes PRs, too all the time!!!Really funny opinion!
-their marriage is all about money. For who? Plushy earns more money-I read in an interview- but Yana also has great salary...

He and Yana are really talented and succesful persons. Plushy is very good in everything what he is doing. His/her haters will kill themself..... :laugh:

I love Yana's dress. It's so cute!

https://instagram.com/p/3B-b-AlSGS/?taken-by=rudkovskayaofficial awesome!

they are looking good!

Plushy's tweet after the victory:
"@EvgeniPlushenko: Very pleased to receive such award for my show "Snow King", and most importantly - very unexpected! Thanks to everyone who voted, who worked on the show! Yana, I love you, you are great and most the creative producer!) And my friend Evgeni Finkelstein supported us, and with us made impossible - possible! https://instagram.com/p/3CUrH4my3R/

Heh, I was kidding ;)

Eugh haters gonna hate...Although! Plushy's show might have had an unfair advantage over the others, he's got acrobats and a flying carriage and skating and all the other shows were just regular old concerts...how could they compete! :laugh:


Plushy looks so nice in a tuxedo!

I know :) But I wanted to say...

;) Yes, he had a great advantage... Yana can be happy because of SK's victory, but he can be sad at the same time because Bilan's show was nominated, too. That is also her work. https://instagram.com/p/3CG7r5lSIh/?taken-by=rudkovskayaofficial My nominees

no doubt. I like his unshaved face in this state. But tomorrow he will be awful :biggrin: https://twitter.com/yokotanpeshenko/status/602140231492468736

Well, if Plushy is a showman, so what? Is that a crime? Yagudin does a lot more TV (not just hosting things like Ice Age, but all kinds of silly fluff things not related to skating). If Plushy wanted to be in showbiz, he could easily be on TV all of the time like Yags. It's clear to me that he enjoys his private life, spending time in nature on his land, and has a rich life with many diverse hobbies. He's playing golf, spending time with his family and not going out to clubs every weekend. What else is he supposed to do? Yana is a polarizing personality so there will always be those that dislike her. I think she isn't perfect, but she's perfect for Plushy...if they are happy together, then it's nobody else's business really. Yes she works in PR, but it's a career...not everyone in her shoes would want to work at all.

Eh, I agree about the "haters gonna hate" part, and the extra-special-fun (or so it seems looking in from the outside;)) of being a hater is that you can criticise the object of your detestation for completely irreconcileable things, and contradictory angles and never be held repsonsible for being consistent, or making sense.

I mean, what to do? Criticise Plushy for being

a) a showman interested only in business
b) a figure skater who can't move on from competive skating because he has no life outside it?

Why, the answer is easy - why choose either, when you can do

c)both

And throw in anything else you like in there - no doubt, including the kitchen sink. Who cares if it makes any sense? Just go for it! ;)

Won what? Eurovision? Really? - that's quite nice.... As is no doubt abundantly apparent by my preceding comments, I haven't really been paying attention - but I did see a little promo of it on TV, with a bit of the Swedish entry... and I thought... you know, that isn't that bad? (Yeah, I don't have the highest expectations, and... Sweden has I don't know how many qualifyers in goodness knows how many cities, and it goes on for weeks and weeks... there's only so much bad music a person can take! At least, if the person is me.;)) Hmm... I think I should indulge in a bit of my once-in-a-blue-moon patriotism, and look up the song... Thanks, plushyfan.:)

ETA - Yeah... not bad. I actually really liked that? Especially that it sounded like a real actual song that people might listen to - as opposed to some just-put-together-for-Eurovision concoction. Nice. :)

ETA - Ugh! I accidentally quoted myself instead of editing! Silly me - How annoying! Apologies about that.

That wouldn't be crime if he were showman in showbusiness. Plushy was host in some Tv shows and he did a great job, he had a reality show-we all know it-. But not today.
And about Yana. I agree with you. Plus nobody is perfect.

Polina Butorina https://instagram.com/p/3CSqFKFn-m/ Do you remember her? She became a young lady!: With all my heart I send you my congratulations Evgeni Plushenko @plushenkoofficial!!! It's a deserved win!!! 🔝🎉 "Snow king" - best show!!! ❄️💙❄️

I was just about to say, man, if only Plushy really were a showman who just cared about money, PR, and business. He wouldn't have put himself through all that torture to return to competition again and again. And it would be so much easier being his fan... no constant worries about his health, no crazy comeback plans messing with our chances of seeing Snow King... *sigh*

This is absolute logically..but the haters are haters. I read from one of his Russian haters: Plush hates Kovtun he is envy of Kovtun results, because when Plush was in same age he lost from Yagudin all the time. He had no such great results as Kovtun has.....Well...:laugh:



I was wrong Guliayev was a costume designer Golubev was the director. "@igor_gulyaev: Friends, congratulations for best show! Glad that my brand is involved in this grand show https://instagram.com/p/3Dgoa1Eq9T/ " Otherwise Golubev was the director of Gagarina's production at Eurovision Song Contest.

nikolaibaskov: Lovely lunch with favorite friends ❤️ 🍴🍸🍰🍳🍧🍭🍤 https://instagram.com/p/3EQ8rfJ3vQ/ " Valentin Yudashkin is next to Baskov.He was the designer of the ultra-see-through costume.. :laugh:

Probably the poster was a young FS fan or a fan of Kovtun's beauty :laugh:

"This lunch was after a charity football match between teams Moscow and St. Petersburg. Other players were: Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, tennis player Marat Safin, 1st Deputy Chairman of Duma Alexander Zhukov, saxophonist Igor Butman, journalist Sergey Pimanov, Minister of the Ministry of Defense Alexander Kogan; General Director of "Gazprom Neft".... The collected funds will be used to build a soccer field for one of the children's institutions."... https://vk.com/wall-32956657_827

So after that evening when he won the award and probably celebrated it he played football. Who is the athlete if he is not?
