Evgenia Medvedeva

Someone on another site said that it was probably a bad translation of a Washington Post article that stated Evgenia was "returning" to Russia in the context of her returning to the national team. Makes sense.
 
People in the Russian ladies thread are citing a Canadian French article about Evgenia leaving Brian Orser... this seems really ridiculous to me but I thought I’d ask it in here what the validity of this article is?
At least some facts are wrong there. For instance, they claim that Zhenya went to 2018 WC.
 
From US$90,000 a month living expenses to changing coaches after just being named to the Worlds team - the forces of ev*l are hard at work.

I actually hope Evgenia read these two rumors, so she knows that a lot of things floating on the web are GARBAGE and should be discarded.

What did they think Evgenia is eating? Cavier everyday? Lol.
As I posted in the Russian ladies thread, Yuzuru's received $100k a YEAR(scholarship) for his training expenses in Canada from 2012 to 2014.
Patrick Chan's training expenses was revealed to be $120k Canadian $ a YEAR in 2011(from Patrick's fundraising dinner info,)

If Evgenia need to spend USD90k a month in Canada must mean inflation rates increased 500%. Hahahaha. Then I would wonder how Jun Hwan, Jason Brown, Gabby Daleman, Joseph phan, even Stephen Gogolev can afford to train at TCC.

Around USD200k a YEAR is more realistic.

That's some astoundingly bad journalism.
 
hello all! :D i’m a longtime lurker first time poster.....phew am i happy for zhenya (and very very sad for liza) but with the news dropping i think for my own sanity i need a break from traditional social media before the negativity gets to me too much, ha.

anyway!!! i’ve always loved lurking this forum and seeing all of you say such lovely things and supporting our zhenya, so i figured i’d chip in with my own two cents from time to time. ☺️

I love you name! Welcome!
 
You guys make me laugh so much during these dire days of hate :laugh:
 
Just some funny information. I've just watched a video where Zhenya was singing autographs after Cup of Russia, and she said how tall she was. 158.5 cm (5.18 ft). To me, she definitely looks bigger than that on ice.

It's because they're all so tiny! I also always imagine skaters taller, somehow that's how they look on the ice. If I didn't have to think about it, I'd estimate Zhenya's height as about the same as mine (1.70), but she's more than 10cm shorter in reality...

This, and also the fact that the skates themselves add about 5cm more!
