Evgenia Medvedeva

[TGee]

oh there are already full translations of the interview on twitter! forget everything i wrote earlier , it was probably a mess anyway [emoji23]

I'm trying to figure out if Sandra Bezic - who helped with the SP choreography - is also with them.

I thought I heard another voice, female, in the background in David's video of the group outside Domodeveda yesterday. It sounds like a Canadian rather than a translator.

They haven't mentioned Sandra travelling with them, although one of the translations takes it that way, but now I'm wondering.

Just to clarify, he didn't say she missed the jumps, he said they weren't perfect. And even though she was frustrated by that, he himself was impressed how well she did right off despits jetlag.

thanks for clarifying! the fsgossips translation is way more accurate than my google translated one anyway :agree:

I love that interview so much!
He does really speak like a proud dad

I really liked the line about her being open to try anything new. That's a great attitude to have.

It was a good interview. Zhenya is a competitor. It seems like she is a genuine athlete and artist always growing and learning and expanding her art and athleticism to rise to any occasion. And moving to Orser was the right decision to accomplish her growth. I only wish someone would make a video of her to Eye of the Tiger. Seems like a fitting theme song for this season.

Zhenya has made her IG account private :think:

Zhenya has made her IG account private :think:

She probably has a good reason for it.

 

[luanddu]

She probably has a good reason for it.

Maybe it has something to do with the number of followers she lost since the coaching change (more than 20k people)?

 

[Wheelz]

Zhenya has made her IG account private :think:

Maybe someone tried to hack her account?

 

[Persimmons]

Whatever the reason, I hope she is able to do well in the test skates and feel confident about her training. It is clear as day that any type of success or good comment about her is incredibly triggering for certain sad people whose happiness is tied to others' perceived failures. I am just looking forward to her skating.

What? I don’t think that’s it tbh...

What. No. Lots of athletes get a surge in followers during the Olympics, and then the number decreases afterwards. It's normal.

She's probably super focussed and can't deal with social media right now.

It's super normal for athletes to gain a ton of followers during the OG, some of them then lose interest and unfollow. I doubt she cares about that!

She probably wants to focus on her skating without giving any space to people who only wish her ill.

i just hope it's not backlash from the interviews

The fact that that interview created backlash is mind boggling to me, to be honest, so I completely understand if she wants to keep away such gratuitous negativity!

OK! Thank you! I don't really know how IG works, so I was just guessing.

I just hope it's nothing serious.

What did Brian say in that interview? 'We are ready for it'.

Let's have faith

 

[MedoLove]

Orser said he LOVES Zhenya! I'm very anxious yayy, Orser seems calm in the interview, I do not know why there are people making a storm of that.I'm dying to know the choreography, it's obvious that the layout will be updated as the season (and the years) progresses , so it has always been with Yuzu.




----------
Sima posted a video with Zhenya's music and hairstyle, is it a tribute? What a beautiful Sima !! . I always loved this friendship ,I want to see these two girls together again on the podium

Making IG private is the most sensible thing to keep the trolls out and keep only the real fans,well done Zhenya

 

[Watch]

Zhenya knows how to stay off social media when she needs to focus and she also knows how important it is to show her best during the test skates, with all the absurd outrage since her coaching change. So I suspect this is the reason.

I wish her strength.

In addition, Brian is EXCELLENT at shielding his students from needless distractions, such as the media.

Keep in mind that Brian had to and was able to handle Korean media/netizens, even after the Yuna break-up. In a way, his experience with Yuna will benefit Zhenya.

He has to handle media attention for Yuzuru Hanyu. He will be more than able to handle it with Zhenya.
