Alina's interview with Ivan
part 2
- Then I reread it again, and I can’t finish reading. .. Is it the same story with you?
- I am currently studying at the university, so I do read. But sometimes I buy a book and decide to read it inside and out, but my poor quality is that I don’t know how to do that to the very end.
- I understand you well, because sometimes it happens to me too, get bored, tired, schedule...What can you suggest from what you've read?
- "Keep your knickers on", "Do not whine", there's its explained in understandable, not confusing language, a psychological book. No need to fret over minutiae, just let it pass.
- Catching Zen
- I am such a person - someone says something to me, and I play it over and over reflecting on myself, I cannot let go for a long time and it eats me up morally. It got better after that book. This is one such problem that I've learnt to let go.
- (to the audience) Read the book and it will be easier to deal with such problems. Now it's fashionable to watch TV series. What TV shows did you like?
- Squid game. As for the films - I'm watching New Year's classics already, like Home Alone. Every New Year, it seems to me, everyone does it.
- In terms of popularity, it bypasses the Irony of Fate.
- I don't know. I also watch the Irony of Fate. When my parents used to watch it, I joined them, didn't find it interesting then, but with age you understand the essence and it becomes interesting. Then the Grinch and the Yolki (New Year Tree series), everyone watches that. I'm waiting for the new Yolki film. I love to watch on New Year's Eve.
- When you go headlong into work, sports, holidays fly by, and you don't have time to feel this mood. how do you create it for yourself?
- The last two years I have been working in ice shows, winter ones. Last year I had a show on Dec 31 and this year too, there's a show on Dec 31, only in St. Petersburg. Then I was with my parents, now I will celebrate the New Year alone.
- You look a bit sad.
- Well, that's work. Of course, the atmosphere is different - as a kid, I used to get excited a week before the New Year, waiting for it to come soon. But in sports we have the RusNats almost on New Year's Eve, you think, this is the RusNats, you need to get it together, and then, suddenly realize: how is it the New Year already? You yourself need to create a holiday: put up a Christmas tree, buy something.
- If you are not with your family, there is your team, have they become close?
- Yes, we have been together for such a long time, two months in Sochi, working together. They invite me to go out with them, but I'm not a party person at all, so after the show I feel like an old grandmother, it's better for me to just lie down, wash, lie in the bath, watch TV shows. There is little time for this.
- What would you do if not for sports and television?
- I could have joined rhythmic gymnastics. My mother put me both in figure skating and in gymnastics classes, such an interesting story. I went in for figure skating, went to the rg, and since I constantly had skating sessions, general physical training, additional classes, she said, we'll just go to stretching classes for figure skating now. But a month passed, and I stopped going to FS altogether. And I just thought it was necessary, to remove the FS for the time being. And when I asked her: are we done with FS? She said: Yes. And I burst into tears. And she put me back there, and I forgot about RG.
- What about something else?
- I probably would have thought that I could become an actress. But when I was little, I was very shy. Sport helped me to open up to some extent. It goes with time. When I was in Izhevsk, I once passed by some children, they were handing out leaflets, I asked how much money they pay for this, they said: 100 rubles. I thought: roll on 14 years, and I will distribute flyers (laughs). This is also work, people earn money.
- What genre would you like to act in?
- In comedy, in the same Yolki, there is a cool plot. I watched so many things that I have forgotten the titles of; but judging by the plots it would be comedy and fantasy.
- Gentlemen, young producers, we have a young talented actress (jokingly)...At the age of 19, you have a great influence on the audience, millions of people follow you, get inspired. Do you feel the responsibility of a champion, leader?
- Yes. I didn’t understand this before. I thought: how can I influence a person, they have their own head on their shoulders. But, on the other hand, I understand that if a person is your idol, and you look at them, at some point it might click and one starts to think: I have to do as she does. When I do something, and they are: wow, I have to do it too. I jumped on a bungee in Sochi and many people went: it's scary, but I want to do it too.
- So you've motivated, inspired some people to try something extreme?
- Yes, but in any case, each person should think for themselves.
- You can be inspired, but not necessarily repeat everything after your idol.
- Yes, you have to want to do something by yourself. I am all for it.
- Be inspired by Alina, but be your own self. Are there people you follow, who motivate you.
- I have a lot of people like that. I try not to completely imitate, I take from each person those qualities that I like and apply them to myself. But you have to be as you feel yourself, and not pretend to be another person.
- Golden words, but it's hard. We are in the information field and there are cool people around and thanks to social networks it always seems that they are your close friends, although we may even be strangers. Is it easy to lose yourself, your true face? How to understand where the real you are, and where is that something superficial?
- It is very difficult, in this world many people are drawn into the desire to imitate someone. Many people play out a role, such are the times we live in. I have had many situations, I am a media person, I go to all sorts of events, there are some people, I will not say who, I used to follow these people.
- On the Internet, you saw them ...
- And when I meat them I thought: "Wow, and these are completely different people on the Internet and in real life." I started from the bottom, achieved everything myself, I don’t forget that. And if I wanted to do something like that, my parents would always bring me down to earth. I used to think: "What the hell are they teaching me?" And now I understand that it was right. It's good that at some point they said "stop".
- It came to me at 25 that my parents were right, before that it was "no, I know everything myself"
- This is a common problem.
- Infantilism. And who is your greatest reference point - your parents and your coach?
- All totalled. Together we reached all the victories. Eteri Georgievna gave me direction, and my parents, when I got off the ice, did that too.
- When does an athlete need to finish, or sports is with you forever, or one can stop after all?
- I don't know. Sport is always with you, all your life. Once you start doing sports, you cannot quit. I see people write on Instagram: “I started to do sports thanks to you and I still continue to do it,” I think it's impossible to quit sports. You wake up sluggish, you don't want to go to a workout, but if you overcame yourself, went out to run for literally 10 minutes, then you yourself will want to do something else. And then you have cheerfulness for the whole day. Something hurts, or I have high temperature, and I go out on the ice, and I feel better.
- Advice that will allow you to get up when you feel bad, you want to lie in bed, but you have to get up and go?
- I think it depends on the person. I, too, may not want to, "Leave me alone" - I too can say that, I am human after all. You need to understand what needs to be done on this day and say to yourself: "Get up and go."
- Let's be inspired by such wonderful people as Alina. You motivate us with your victories, and being here live with us.
- Thanks!

"So the Championship of Russia has come to an end
I am glad to have been a part of this grand competition.
I sincerely congratulate the coaching staff and all the participants, you all did a great job!
I would especially like to mention the skaters that are going to represent our country at the Olympic Games. I wish you good luck and believe that you will succeed!
Being a reporter for @1tv and accompanying the participants on a path that I have already gone through is an incredible experience for me! Indeed, in 2018 it was the victory at the Russian Championship in St. Petersburg that led me to the gold at the Olympics
Many thanks to the organizers for the chance to gain this experience, memories and the opportunity to feel these emotions again!

Spasiba JazzUp! Very very interesting interview, I got a better handle of the young woman on the skates and behind the medals. Makes me admire her more. I loved the Gala Ex program, a different direction, with a gorgeous costume that really shows her beauty.

two small pleasant bonuses for the end of the year - kp.ru, newspaper with largest circulation in Russia, conducted two surveys:
Most stylish woman in 2021
Alina won that by one order of magnitude compared to the rest
and
Best female TV host in 2021
Alina won that too, in the same way

She is also winning the comment section on Sports.ru. Alina's second fanbase keeps doing the absolute most! Two separate articles about Alina's new program. One has over 1,000 comments. The other has 970+. (So close! But I guess allowances have to be made with it being the holiday season and the busiest time of the year.)
