This part of the interview:
---
At Skate Canada, she surprised everyone by skating to “Rise Like a Phoenix” by Austrian drag queen Conchita Wurst, complete with costume and hairstyle change during the performance.
“The idea came up after the Eurovision song contest,” explained Pogorilaya. “It was a fun idea, why not take it?”
In Russia, however, some politicians frowned upon the singer and condemned him, but Pogorilaya is more open-minded.
“What’s the matter? He sings very well and has a nice voice,” she said, adding that the program was well-received at Rostelecom Cup. “Everything else is not important. The idea that he is a boy-girl is also great. There could have been a scandal, but luckily there wasn’t.”

Very progressive, very cool.
Hope she get to podium and get to do that special gala at European Championships. What better choice than Eurovision song contest winner at European Championship.
Fire warms, fire ignite, fire burns, fire blazes....fire bring rebirth.... Goo Anna!! (...and the fact I prefer it to the Run Lola Run program. If she is going to do Jovovich or a Besson, I suggest Residential Evil, Joan of Arc or Nikita!! Although knowing the Russians skating 'style', we are more likely to get 'Return of the blue lagoon' )
