she was my idol, the first gymnast I ever saw, she is the reason for my any involvment in gymnastics, I remember the feeling watching her in olys in Seoul and telling my mum I want to be like her At that time I didnt even know where Russia was on the map.Svetlana Boginskaya had to work hard to overcome the handicap of stunning long-legged elegance.
I dont think beauty is a plus in fs, if the lady has a bad posture or is boring or she is not that good I dont see much of getting credits because of beauty, Wagner is very beautiful, does she get credit for that? The ladies you have put in the list they are not only beautiful, they are very good skaters and elegant anyway, they project really well. Akiko is not the most beautiful of the japanese team but she is so beautiful when she skates and has this large smile, you cant escape it. I would add Mao , Rochette and Mirai in the beauty list, I find Mao having a royal presence, cant explain, the pics also she had made for commercials are beautiful.
Also it is always subjective , we were looking at Kira for almost first row in sp and she is stunning the least to describe it. But a man next to us was finding Cynthia more beautiful while I find her very agressive, I would call her sexy not beautiful. She has though a very healthy body type, most girls need feeding there.
