Tessa Virtue & Scott Moir : Just For Us # 45

[bbkenn]

If you will look only on there skates the difference between 2010 and 2014 was really huge, I am not talking about SD, it was the best, but about FD.

I agree the FD was beautifully skated in 2014 and I loved this year's FD also. I just love everything they do, to be honest.

For me, they truly won the gold at Sochi! I so much preferred their programmes to those of Davis and White.

I'm a P/C FAN .I much prefer Seasons than Latch

I am foremost a TS fan but luv P/C as well..When both perf. are clean I was even steven with the programs but my fav.of all time is TS doing Carmen.

 

[pani]

I wonder if they will do some kind of continuation of the style of their SD. Seemed to be very popular with judges and audiences.

O, will be cool!

Skate Canada announced their '17-18 national team and they updated Tessa and Scott's profile photo! Both of them look great! Scott's hair looks shorter there though

I think this photo is from last year High Perfomance Camp.

I know this is a T & S thread but I love Love it or list Vancouver , would love to watch theJillian and Justin show anyone in Canada has a way to make it accessible world wide please? Thank you!

 

[girlscouse62]

I am really anxious to see their new programmes, but July will be here soon and we should hear their musical choices. Really miss them in the "off" season!

 

[Shayii]

Well I'm not sure we'll hear anything in July. They've gone really quiet on social media I'm betting more on HPC. But there are rumors they're using Moulin Rouge not sure I believe that, but I wouldn't be mad at it if that is what they went with. That's a big if though.

 

[chantilly]

I like that choice. Not in love with it.
But it all depends on what they do with it.
It does combine all their strengths; storytelling, male female connection, romance,drama and Latin if they use Roxanne.
I feel like it will be a good blend of Carmen and Umbrellas.
Interesting

 

[RoseRed]

They said in some interview this summer that they won't announce their music choices until they perform the programs for the first time, so probably HPC.

 

[arakwafan2006]

I cannot wait. I think they're soooo smart. They went right back into training because they aren't ignorant about what they're up against and they want to get it right. I doubt the French will be on pins and needles next year.

Really? Where are these rumors coming from?

 

[princeton123]

Moulin Rouge is so blah. Hope it's not true.

 

[supergirl573]

I always wanted them to use "Bolero" from the credits of Moulin Rouge. I think they will be great at it.

 

[Shayii]

I saw it on tumblr, but I would take it with a grain of salt.

It's tough no matter what they choose there's going to be that one person that's not going to like it, you can't please everyone.

Oh that would be good! I always loved Yukari Nakano's SP to that. Honestly the only music I hate from Moulin Rouge is Tango de Roxanne because I can't stand any of the "singers" nor the melody. I don't love the idea of a MR program, but Tessa and Scott can hit it out of the park.

Hmmmmmmm. Interesting. No matter their music choice, I must contain myself. I have learned over the years to trust them. When I heard they were doing Carmen, I was disappointed. LOL LOL. And it was a masterpiece.

But Carmen, while overused, is terrific music. Moulin rouge is not (IMO).
There's a tackiness and cheesiness to that soundtrack that doesn't really suit V/M, who always have a touch of class in anything they do.

These music rumours are usually wrong anyway. My guess is that this one is wrong as well.

 

[girlscouse62]

MR would not be my preferred choice, either. But I have learned over the years that when they really love the music they choose, they skate brilliantly. So here's hoping for them to choose music they love and truly can connect with it.

Has anyone received any recent news of what V&M are up to? I don't follow them on twitter or instagram, so if you do, have they posted anything recently since June 29? Thanks.

 

[sap5]

Mostly just pics of them training and having fun together in Montreal. Tessa posted about her Canada Day vacation. They said earlier that they wanted to announce their music when they performed their programs, so nothing on that front, if that's what you're looking for.

I believe it originates from a Russian site. Same person that said Papadakis and Cizeron are skating to Moonlight Sonata.

My condolences to Tessa... she lost her grandmother.

My condolences to Tessa... she lost her grandmother.

When did it happen? Do you have a source? (she just posted an instastory 2 hours ago and seemed to have a great weekend)

 

[liv]

She passed away on July 6th. Her obituary is in the local papers and on the funeral home site. Tessa is listed as one of her 18 grandchildren.

 

[Shayii]

That's sad. Scott's grandfather passed away recently as well.

We only get a glimpse of their lives on their social media accounts so it's hard to say how she must have been feeling.

I almost forgot what I came to post. I thought this snippet from Tim Koleto from K/K's interview with ice-dance.com was cute:

While Tim has worked with some of the greatest names in the sport, he would love to have the opportunity to learn from one legendary team. “Through all my years skating, I’ve never once crossed paths with Tessa [Virtue] and Scott [Moir]. Their connection on the ice is legendary. They are the total package and unstoppable. They can skate to any and every music. Their Prince SD from last season is the textbook definition of what a SD should be.”

Like @sap5 said they mainly posted about a few activities they've gone to in Montreal, apart from that pretty quiet. Anyway here's some recent pics if anybody cares 1234567
