Nathan Chen

[reneerose]

well, nathan's mom's sister is the blogger's grandma.
and she is actually 5 years older than nathan, but was asked to call him uncle

So technically the blogger is the child of his older first cousin. Had to wrap my head around that one LOL.

I want to know what Adam Rippon was showing Nathan on his phone in the backstage clip they showed on USA this morning!! Whatever it was seemed to make Nathan laugh!

I'm wondering if Adam was showing him pics of everywhere Nathan has been spotted at the Olympics? Or maybe tweet debates about a certain scandal which I'll not post anything more about in here. I can say though Nathan looked so cute the other night I think it was at the short dance when he was wearing that cute woolen white knit cap. He looked so relaxed and having a good time!

Nathan was also at Big Air w/ other Team USA members (from Jason's IG)

Interesting NYT article about nicknames given to athletes by Chinese fans

Fly High, Frog Princess! Well Done, Chen No. 3!

The world’s most popular Olympians are household names. But to Chinese fans who delight in creating nicknames, they’re different characters entirely.

there is something wrong in the NYT article. Chinese fans never call nathan trigger, only the Hanyu fans do. and "Chen No.3"（陈三）sounds rude in Chinese, so fans will never say that.
Chinese fans often call him SanSan（三三） or WeiWei（巍巍）.

I’ve been calling him 3-3 for a while now. I think it was Mamamiia that posted it four years ago. Third of the North American Chen Skaters, and the third son of his own family. I thunk it’s cute. WeiWei is new to me.

In fact, his medal count is also very much like his nick name.

3 Olympic Medals
3 World Championship Gold
3 Grand Prix Final gold
6 (3 x 2) US National Champion golds

Odd how that happened.

Nathan mentioned in interview with Sam Chouinard in Dance Magazine

Meet Sam Chouinard, Choreographer for Olympic Gold Medalist Figure Skaters

Sam Chouinard, a Canadian choreographer, works with some of the world’s highest-ranking skaters. For the Beijing 2022 Olympics, he’s collaborated with athletes from the U.S., Canada, China, Spain, France, Great Britain and Japan.

www.dancemagazine.com

What was it like helping Nathan Chen move from a more balletic style to hip hop on ice?​

This guy is a genius, he’s just so brilliant. For sure, we wanted to bring the party vibe out of this program. It’s the Olympics—you want to make people feel something. When you know your competitors, if you want to stand out, you need to think differently.

Also, Anna Scherbakova said somewhere that Nathan might participate on Channel 1 Cup. Not sure if it's true but didn't Raf say he wanted Nathan to participate in it? https://twitter.com/valsedesfIeurs/status/1494712938212511747

what's next? dancing with the stars?

 

[reneerose]

what's next? dancing with the stars?

Boy I hope not. I personally think he's above all of that Also I wouldn't want him to have his Spring and Summer too busy taking plane flights between DWTS rehearsals and SOI rehearsals when he has to go back to Yale in the Fall. I pray he won't do that to himself. Poor kid needs a break!

 

[Ella5555]

Raf had indicated earlier that Nathan was planning to do Mozart during the gala. I guess Nathan must have changed it up in order to keep it light - and to just relax and enjoy the moment. I wonder if we’ll ever see Mozart again?

Considering the talk shows he’s doing this coming week, I doubt that he’ll have a lot of time for training. I’d be really surprised if he does Worlds. Though he deserves his victory tour on the talk shows, it kind of makes me sad that he hasn’t gotten the same attention (outside the skating world) the last four years that he should have - plus this may be the last time we see him skate competitively.

Interesting that there was mostly a positive response on social media after his team short (I guess because a certain skater wasn’t there), but that all changed with the individual event. I’m avoiding general social media now.

On a brighter note, I belatedly watched his interview on Olympic Ice: He mentioned (after being asked jokingly if he was going to bring the bowl cut back) that he didn’t start getting his curls until he was 13 or 14 (so probably not - LOL).

 

[Joe Mendoza]

idk - Nathan definitely gave a PC answer. I have a feeling if Yuzuru is not retiring, we might still see more of him. Selfishly, I still want to see more of Nathan competing - even if he comes back after graduating.

DWTS starts in 9/2022, when Nathan will be in school. I think he'll prioritize school over the approx. $300K gig. Hubbell and Donohue could be in it as they are retiring.

Good to know. Thanks for assuaging my fears. The man needs, as Marina Zoueva advocates, a time to rest.
