PS:Is that girl in his Tosca program Carolina Kostner?

You mean the woman with the white long dress? No I think it wasn't her!

Opera on Ice will be aired on Canale 5 today at 2pm CET. On their website http://www.operaonice.eu they have published some video clips in advance and it looks like the camera work has been done very nicely and the atmosphere of the show actually comes across on TV. Can't wait to see it, it was spectacular live!!

Plushenko is scheduled to skate to one of Carmen's big female arias (Habanera). I bet that it will be a funny routine in drag. Hopefully this will end up on YouTube.

Reprising part of his LP from 2002?

Genderflip!Plushy is ALWAYS brilliant.

I really doubt that. It wouldn't suit this show at all, and I hope that Plushenko realizes that.

Serious genderflip!Plushenko will make my night too.

Plushy's 2nd number in shows is usually something on the light side so maybe???

Yeah but this show is going to be held in the Arena di Verona, with the Arena orchestra and opera singers.

Maybe it'll be good to lighten up the show a bit. Maybe it's something the opera people would like to do too.

Oh, I've seen 'pops' style shows at the Arena. It's not La Scala. This is not hoity-toidy at all. Popcorn and candies are sold and can be consumed during the show. It's like Caracalla in Rome - an open-air popular venue with a mix of serious and pops shows.

Yes, but this particular show is not very "pop" - at least, it was not last year. Actually, I am not against some comic program in that show, only it better not be the vulgar/cheep kind of comic, but rather something more elegant and refined. I am not sure that Plushenko in drag is going to manage that .

Just found out the film is being shown here in Australia this weekend at Palace Cinemas. Might have to go and see it.
