Congratulations to Ilia for his gold medal and for holding it together despite the increasing pressure and expectations. It's not easy to do! My ears are still killing me. It was SO loud in there!!! Staying injury free will.be key, and I hope he will prioritize his physical condition throughout the upcoming season.

I am so impressed by Ilia's continued growth artistically. Does anyone know why he cried at the end of his piece at the gala??

The performance and song were dedicated to the skaters, coaches and family members that died in that recent crash.

Shoma interviews Ilia
All of Ilia baby pictures are starting to be shown and he was so cute. They showed another one at worlds and quite frankly like many young men he slightly embarrassed by them.. He was smiling though so it was not that bad for him. We going to see a lot more of them so Ilia better be ready for it., and I love because it shows who Ilia really is and does a great job of showing the real Ilia behind the he Quad God persona that he projects.

Pretty sure this was at the 2018-2019 Season Grand Prix Final in Vancouver at the Doug Mitchell Thunderbird Sports Centre. I was at that event and remember seeing Ilia and who I thought was his mom attending and sitting somewhat close to me. Didn't really know who he was at that point other than someone who was on IG with the screenname lutzboi who would appear in pictures with other skaters that I followed. Patrick Chan was at this event commentating for Canadian Broadcasting.

Hello Ilia fans!
The NY Times had a very long, complimentary article (in the dead tree Times it was the entire front page of the sports section). Also talking about how affected Ilia was by the plane crash.

On Saturday the U.S. figure skating star became the men’s world champion for the second straight year. To get there, he had to channel his grief over losing fellow skaters in January’s D.C. plane crash.

Ilia was announced to be the special guest performer at the ITNY gala this year, which honors Scott Hamilton with the Lifetime Achievement award. He will be at the May 5th performance and I already have my tickets. He also performed last year at this event, so he must like skating with ITNY!

I wish that there's a summer show near me that I can go to see Ilia skate again. I'm lucky to have seen him skate in person 6 times, but his command on the ice is just amazing.
