That instagram story is funny and she probably was a gentle fan. I remember this from his biography:
"For these three years much had happened – my popularity grew abruptly. It so happened that at the same time when I met my love, admirers started to trouble me. These girls had unknown ways to learn my address, my home and mobile telephone. Moreover they tried to show their feelings.
On the entire wall of the entrance in my block of flats there were love confessions. My telephones did not stop ringing. I changed the number of my mobile phone endlessly, but I had to change the one of my home phone too, because it was a torture. They literally attacked us with their calls – they rang me, Ulyana, my parents.
p.61
After the competitions and the shows big groups of girls were waiting for me. As a result I started to go out of the Palace of Sport under the cover of the Special units of the police /OMON/^.
After one such case I had to take bodyguards.
- Zhenya, my love! Why do you live with Ulyana? You should not do this, you love only me!
I was stunned. This could not be one of my friends, they do not do such cruel jokes. It was a long-distance call.
- Who is it? – I asked just in case.
- Zhenya, you have to come to me! I cannot do without you! If you don’t come now, I will kill you all – you, Ulyana, all your relatives.
- But I don’t know you. We never met. I don’t know even how you look like. – and I hung up the receiver. I was out of my reason, she threatened my very close people.
She started ringing up regularly. She rung me, mom, Ulyana. She threatened to cut our throats, if I did not go to her immediately. She said she had a child from me.
At the beginning I tried to talk with her.
- Excuse me, please. But I don’t know you, really. I beg you, stop ringing!
I could not convince her and we had to take urgent measures.
We found out that the calls are from Novosibirsk. I referred to the Security Agency /FSB/^ and our telephone was tapped. The intruder was found out. It appeared she was mentally ill and I think she was sent to treatment.
But she succeeded to ruin our nerves.
She wrote me infinite letters with love confessions and threats. Once she came to me with her mom.
p.62
Fortunately, I was not at home. They waited for me for two days, spent the nights in the entrance, rang at the door ceaselessly.
- Zhenya, there are some people here waiting for you, - said mom frightened on the telephone.
- Call the police immediately.
I think I know who this girl was.
We had a performance in Novosibirsk. After the show there was an autograph session. The admirers went wild and in order not to be divided into souvenirs I had to walk with guards – I was escorted by 25 policemen from OMON^. They brought me to the changing-room, but there it was full with people too. They stretched their hands to me holding photos or sheets of paper. One woman succeeded to come very near me. She gave me a sheet of paper:
- Sign it!
I turned round and she unexpectedly grabbed my hand and pull it to herself with all her might. Luckily her palm was damp and my hand slipped off. I think it was the same woman, but I am not very sure, because I cannot remember her face.
Admirers like this one I did not have any more. Only some strange things happened from time to time. Some of the girls, the most active ones, give me as a present women’s underwear. Girls, don’t spend money on that, I don’t wear this!
In general my admirers are positive people, who love figure skating very much. Their number grows each year. I try to meet them, I have already a fan club. But, of course, I don’t give my telephone numbers to everyone.
There are admirers, which follow me all over the world. I see them at almost every competition.
p.63
In all those years we have become friends. While I am training in Peter and have a pause, they succeed to earn money for a hotel, tickets, presents and we meet again at the next championships. This admiration and attention is much of a help to me.
Now nobody troubles me. I live in a guarded village in the suburbs and there it is difficult to intrude unnoticed.
With all my performances around the world I have realized that in different countries the audience is different. For example the American humour is only their own. And the sportsmen take this in mind when they make up their programs. For instance they fall down intentionally and this is very funny for the Americans. In Russia nobody laughs at this.
After all, I like it best when I perform in Russia. At home, when I skate a serious program – with an idea in it, with emotions and elegant grace – the audience takes me to their hearts, they hold their breaths and follow my every movement.
I like very much to perform in Japan. And Japanese like me much too. They called me the Sunny Boy and every time they literally pile me with presents – I go home with three full suitcases and I leave six suitcases to be given to kindergartens.
The Japanese have an impressive ancient culture. They are not intrusive, they smile, they respect me. They do everything with a bow. And they love classics.
Once I received a letter from some Japanese fans. “We would like to come to Petersburg and meet you.” “Yes, of course!”, answered I.
And in Petersburg came twenty two Japanese girls. They paid their traveling and the hotel and gave me innumerous presents. They watched me skating, we went to lunch,
p.64
to museums, made pictures. It was very nice – me among twenty two Japanese girls! They were young, disciplined and most important – not intrusive.
I hope in the future I will meet my fans in such a friendly and pleasant atmosphere. Not only Japanese, but other nationalities too."

Well, I'm sure Plushy will probably have the better cast. Averbukh always has the same old people in his shows.

I love Cheburashka!!! If anybody doesn't know it you watch this video!
with english subtitle!
His nose doesn't look that red to me, but then as an Aussie when we say sunburn we mean sunburn! I'd like to have seen a Clown Plushy exhibition number!
: I tried the first time to train golf today!
