I wish she would have skated Worlds last year. Doesn't she have a test skate coming up in a few days?

Yes it's a private skate for the federation and it's big. If she does well they will send her to Euro or worlds or both. But I can't believe she would be ready for euro's. Ade just started skating again recently.

It was reported that she said that already in an interview on TV during Russian Nationals. Not surprising I guess.

If she's healthy she should skake at worlds. She has a couple more months to prepare for that. If there are any setbacks then Ade skips worlds. Otherwise she needs to go and she needs to start skating again in real competitions not just exho's.
I'm feeling pretty mixed about this. As much as I want Anna to go to Worlds badly, Adelina knows she needs to prove something to the figure skating world. Yuna was off for nearly the entire 2010-2011 season yet she still qualified for Worlds (true that she was the only one on the top level from her country) and finished with a silver. Adelina needs to start getting used to the ice again if she wants to show everything she has at Worlds.
Sings well, too.
Nah, it is all ridiculously autotuned.

Are there any videos or pictures about her free skate for the test? I would really like to see it 
Anyone can hear it there. Autotune is unnoticeble for a non-musician person ear if most of the singing is in tune. But here you can hear it - synthesized sounds covering up the voice (both Adelina's and another Olympic dude's), so the voice sounds electronic-ish, - which means in reality it would sound really out of tune... She is an athlete, not a singer, so who cares, unless she wants to become one
I get what you are saying but she won't be prepared, it will take a few months to be back in shape. If the other 3 did well at Euros they should go to Worlds.

Miss 2 straight worlds? No way if she is healthy and practicing well. If she is not well or doesn't feel right then skip it again.
