Would there be a Czech or Slovak Othodox Church?
I have noticed that both Johnny and Evan have stopped wearing those red Kabbalah strings on their wrists. I guess for them Kabbalah was just a fad.
Sasha's mom is from Odessa, IIRC, which is in the Russian speaking part of Ukraine. Russian language was always the official language in USSR republics and not that many people living in large cities (especially in Ukraine and Belorussia) spoke the "native" language. Also, most native speakers would've been significantly older than Sasha's mom. I am not even sure if Victor Petrenko (an ethnic Ukrainian) can actually speak Ukrainian.
Mirai did not speak fluent Japanese. I think just conversational.
I watched her in Japan vs US open this year and Japanese reporters asked her how does she feel since this it was her "shozen"( first competition), and she answered shyly "shozen nan desuka?"(sorry, what does "shozen" means?)
Very cute ^^, so i guessed she is not that fluent in Japanese
I remember reading an article on Leung which said she spoke two different forms of Chinese. (I think one was a distinct dialect.) Plus she had French schooling, although I don't know if she attended immersion.
you can always convert, right? (we know that from the My big Fat Greek Wedding )
i actually know one family that is 3/4 Italian and 1/4 Greek, yet they belong to the GO church.
I recall an interview when Evan stated that it was important for him to be in Russia (that was WC a couple years back) for the Orthodox Easter - so he could be Russian Orthodox for all we know. The crucifix he wears is certainly an orthodox one.
Besides, wikipedia is not always 100% accurate.

Well the Greek Orthodox and the Russian Orthodox are in communion with each other, and they are the same Church.... Probably the only difference is the langauge that is used in the Divine Liturgy, and other cultural differences.
Really? Wasn't Tara's mother's maiden name Brozyniak?
(Tara was, however, named after Scarlet O'hara's house.)
Beier/Beier's mother is Philippina and their father German.
Kristine Musademba is a half Philipino and half african.
Kristine Musademba may be part Filipina and part African, but she is 100% American.
