Jason Brown

Jason had a stalker?! That's scary.
Yes, a girl who still follows and comments on all his social media, though not to the utterly insane extent she did back in the day - around 2014 or so. Unfortunately, her constant behaviour was what led Jason to close off on social media and stop being as responsive to fans, as well as start delaying his travel posts.

I'm glad the Japanese fans will get to see I Lived, which is beautiful, but feel sad they will be deprived of show Sinnerman.
 
He has 2 more show engagements in Japan this summer. He might choose to do Sinnerman at one of them? It's such a demanding program, it might have been too much to ask given his schedule up to getting to Japan and the acclimation time needed. I guess we'll see!
 
Jason is doing "Memory" from Cats to a live singer in Part II. ETA: according to these tweets retweeted by the Japanese Fan Club.


Twitter Translate: This year's FaOI. In the latter half of Kobe and Shizuoka, the collaboration between Seiko Niizuma's singing ability and skaters is the best. Habi-chan's Ramancha man, Jason's Cats, And Mai Mihara's Remize. All are excellent. I want to burn it firmly into my
eyes and brain.



Twitter Translate: Memory from the musical "CATS" by Jason and Seiko Niizuma. This is also 😭The powerful singing voice of Mr. Niizuma and Jason's relaxed skating match Cried.


Twitter Translate: Jason x Seiko Niizuma x CATS memory, too luxurious

Another Broadway ballad which I am sure Jason is slaying and I would :cry: if I saw.

That's seriously cool! I guess Impossible Dream will be at a different show. Unless he's doing more than 2 solos. He kept this secret! I wonder if he choreographed it himself. I think he choreographed the exhibition at Nats that he did with the live singer. I hope we'll get some really good footage!

particularly since I think Javi is doing a Man of LaMancha program, at least I assume that is "Habi-chan's Ramancha man". So I think maybe Impossible Dream is another show?

From what I understand flitting though social media, Yuzu may be skating to a live violinist. God bless the Japanese fans and their support of skating shows like this. :pray: (and I don't care if it's one skater, bless them too:pray:)
 
Jason in the Kobe Fantasy on Ice cast shot (at the end, next to Elladj):



According to this tweet retweeted by the Japanese Fan Club, Jason's father said Jason returned to the US from Mexico and then flew to Japan on Tuesday. (no idea if the Twitter translation is correct or how this person would know)

 
New Jason interview - celebrating his one year ‘coming out’ anniversary.
Some new tit bits including how he broke the news to his parents in 2017 - by telling them about his boyfriend at the time! Unsurprisingly his parents were incredibly supportive of him. He also talks about wanting to provide representation for other LGBTQ+ individuals out there, he’s such a kind soul 🥰

Thanks for letting us know about the article. The part about his parents is so cute. Essentially, like parents everywhere, I feel they just wanted to make sure the guy was good enough for their son (that he was happy). ;)
 
I love Kaori ever since I saw her at SKAM in Lake Placid. I hope we get to see some clips of her doing Ro's choreo. Jason has been posting a lot about the fun they are all having on this tour.

@Bookseller don't your children live in Colorado? Any chance of a 4CC trip this year? (while being sad for those down under)

You could probably see Kaori's Rohene program? And with any luck, Jason ;) (although if I am honest I think the chances of a full season from Jason diminish daily)

My oldest daughter and family are in Boulder. The Springs is about 2 hours away. It's a long shot given the time of year, but I'll keep it in mind. 4CCs was scheduled for the Springs a while back, but then they moved it to Cali instead. Skaters don't like having to compete at that altitude, apparently. Skate America will be in Boston this year, but that's a long shot too. It depends on a lot of things. It would be fun! I agree that Jason is not showing signs of jumping back into competition any time soon. But very few skaters who went to the Olympics have officially announced their retirement, so who knows? When they announce GP assignments, I guess we'll have a better idea.
 
So apparently there’s an interview in IFS magazine with Jason where we get the most info about retirement/not-retirement so far. I can’t access the whole thing but a twitter fan screen shotted an excerpt here.

It does sound to me like he’s not COMPLETELY done. He doesn’t want to rush, or pressure himself to be ready for the start of the season, but doesn’t sound like he’s completely closed the door on competition. I could see him skipping the GP and going for nationals.

I agree with the assessment (or maybe because it means we would at least see him at Nats, I am hoping that is the case. :) Also, wouldn't it be great for Jason to slay the San Jose Nats monster when he is under no pressure and just skating for himself. And our friends going to Nats could see him. )

And Worlds and 4CC in North America, if he is selected. :pray:
 
Oh god. So I really could have seen him one last time. And now the dream is gone. And barring a lottery win, I will never see him in person again.

I just wanted to see him in person one more time. 💔
