News Vedio, Evan has cute interactions with the kids:
Evan visits Lowell Elementary students
Since the winter games are over Lysacek has been busy with Stars on Ice, Dancing with the Stars, Make a Wish Foundation, the Ronald Macdonald House, and the Special Olympics. He finds time to visit elementary schools, and says "i've achieved so much, and this is my opportunity to explain to these kids that it is possible to do anything".
Instead of explaining how he got to where he is, he focuses on where the students want to go. He considers this part of the program his favorite, "especially when they're so pure and in elementary school. A lot of them are not jaded and they'll come right out and tell you they want to be a ballerina, a professional baseball player, and no one has told them they can't do anything".
Lysacek inspires students to have determination, work hard, and maintain a strong support system.Last edited by aymkjb88; 06-24-2010 at 07:03 PM.

Welcome Jaana! I've wanted to open the thread for a while, but I'm concerned that the 'positive' posts may not fit into FSU's style very well.

Congrats to Evan on the ESPY nomination. He seemed to have a great time going to the show as Nastia's guest, now he gets to go again as a nominee

For those voting, you need to scroll down in the box to get to Evan's category.
On the female Olympian side, I voted for Hannah Kearney, since the Mancuso/Vonn dramatics were too annoying.

Forgot the key part in his twilight premier message:
their Twilight inspired Paso Doble was my favorite dance in DWTS-S10, I'm really looking forward to seeing a vampire theme new program from Evan next season!Will be cool to see the movie after doing the Twilight inspired dance with Anna. Maybe I'll get inspiration for a new program?

Thanks for starting this thread and gathering all the info!!
Despite Evan and Kristi this movie is still not my cup of tea, I can't stand watching Robert Pattinson, he's the worst looking actor for a vampire IMO... LOLEvan and Kristi will attend tonight's Twilight: Eclipse premier together in LA.
