^^^ I think she also got some pressure from Raf and Lori.....They spent a good deal of time training LaLa Land and for her not to use it, was probably quite disappointing to them. I know Ashley said she wasn't feeling the program but, I'm sure they hoped she'd put it out for the judges to see before she abandoned it.

YES!!!! Thank you
Raf was the one who first suggested that she switch to Moulin Rouge. I think this was all Ashley's decision.

But wasn't Raf the one who suggested the change in the first place? And I thought Shae was the choreographer of LaLa Land?

If they were going to go back to an old program, I think they should have gone back to The Black Swan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTfuSEHn4cc

Do you guys realize skaters can't just pull an old program out of their pockets and do it the way you are used to it? It isn't up to current standards and components etc.
I'm so tired of hearing on here.....Well he/she/they should just go back to something they skated 5+ years ago.
Also, why would Ashley want to go head to head with Osmond with Black Swan. :hopelessness:

Her poor SP performance at SkAm, followed by her pullout during the LP, followed by this late change of program have opened the doors for doubt.
I'm going out on a limb. I predict she WD's from US Nats and petitions for an Olympic spot.

We just have to disagree here and that's fine. I'd rather see Ashley bring The Black Swan up to date than stay with MR. It would certainly seem fresher and since she was so good at that program, I think she might have enjoyed going back to it. It's not really worth going into since it won't be happening.

Oh please. That would be artistic suicide, besides she's doing LA LA LAND. Everyone just needs to leave it alone already.

It would be nightmare pr. Say starr, mirai, chen got 3rd at nationals. Us skate authorities give 3rd olympic spot to ashley again. Not good.
Its not like ashley is super competitive with russian skaters , if they make it to olys.

If that does happens, do you think Ashley would be given a spot?

Not super competitive with the Russians? How about "not competitive at all." None of the US women will, barring a flash of lightning from an up-and-comer.

Would she? Probably.
Should she? No.
