Because he can speak in English and French, and the gala organizers clearly respected him so much to have him speak. They are far more classy than you.

I was and am perfectly relaxed.
ETA: And LOL, I am not among those moaning and groaning re NBC's selective broadcast coverage of the gala. I have not understood and do not understand the posts of that nature in this and other threads. It is what it is. NBC's broadcast coverage (as opposed to NBCSN's cable coverage) of the Olympic skating competitions also was selective, as we all know.
Meryl and Charlie were so good! Is this the CD they used? I want it!

This. Stunning. I had no idea that was even possible on skates.
I think he did this traveling spin also at the Worlds in 2012 - FS - but I am not sure..I have to check the program again

Second half was a bit more boring and subdued to me. I like Javiers Aerobic Class the first time, it was very funny, but how long has he been skating it now? Also Yuzurus White Legend feels overdone. I know much more people who don't watch skating watched the Olympics Gala, but some were really creative and other rested on their laurels. (Daisuke as well) The group number at the end was cute, but the camerawork bad. I couldn't see who was paired up, haha!

Who else among the skaters spoke at the end of the gala? I'm very glad that Chan was chosen
... curious whether other skaters were chosen as well.Who else among the skaters spoke at the end of the gala? I'm very glad that Chan was chosen
No one else spoke. There was a group finale after Patrick, though. The men's, ladies, ice dance, pairs all took turns doing an element. The skaters, at the very end, skated a few laps and waved to the crowd.

What did Chan say in his speech? I watched much of the TSN coverage of the gala, in Canada, but somehow missed Chan's speech...
I also wanted to see the pairs and I couldn't
I did only see Moore-Towers/Soloviev and Lipnitskaia/Hanyu.
They changed partners again I think, because some other guy came up and danced with Savchenko and Szolkowy had to find his partner Love the ending.
