2026 Olys Rhythm Dance PBP - Livin' La GOE Loca

[Skaterbob]

Someone up thread said they though Laurence looks smug. I'd look pretty smug too if I was 99.99999% sure I was leaving with an Olympic medal. Very possibly a gold one.

Yea after being a bridesmaid the rest of your career with other partners. lol

 

[just tuned in]

I don't remember the VO with Madonna using the s-word.

 

[Karen-W]

FB/C got 51.74 TES in Team RD; 51.94 TES atm.

And that .20 is the exact improvement they had in their overall score today. 89.98 in the TE RD, 90.18 today.

 

[MacMadame]

Are the men's knees all bloody too but you just can't see them? Otherwise... this needs to stop.

I assume.

 

[ilovesalchows]

I didn't know Joaquin Phoenix skated!

 

[my little pony]

how many more sessions a week do I need to get this ass?

 

[millyskate]

Ah so Lauriault-Le Gac are Olympians! Their move finally did pay off

 

[Colonel Green]

I hope they hold up a “Prince Estate sucks!” sign at the end of the program.

 

[floridaice]

Imagine skating a new program in the Olympics -- love them

 

[Theatregirl1122]

OMG no one wants the dancers to be shot FROM ABOVE.

 

[Spikefan]

I miss Prince.

 

[slicekw]

Tom Jones just strikes me as a ‘60s voice. Even if it is “Sexbomb”.

 

[rfisher]

at those saying it wasn't as good as previous comps. They got a season's best score.

 

[MacMadame]

I actually like her costume, I would never tell her that. but I do think lesser mortals would have had a costume deduction.

Gills. Just gills.

 

[Karen-W]

Listen, folks, there's still hope for the Swedes to make the FD. Have you already forgotten what happened at Worlds last year?

 

[Private Citizen]

He looks like he has no neck in this costume. I can’t tell if he’s actually hunching or if the costume is making him look that way? These two are such great show skaters.

They basically did this by choice? It seems like they knew that they didn't have the rights for the Olympics but decided not to change it until now.

 

[MacMadame]

at those saying it wasn't as good as previous comps. They got a season's best score.

That doesn't mean it was better. We've seen that a lot at these Olympics even with teams I like.

 

[Debbie S]

I predict Chock/Bates will be up by 2+ points if they skate clean.

Can you let the judges know by Group 5?

Happy for LeGacs, but this is giving me flashbacks to Plushy's Sex Bomb ex. Why, IAM?

Strong skate considering it's a brand new program in it's first performance.

Q 74.35 = 2nd Place

 

[ilovesalchows]

I hate them for reminding me of Plushy doing this exhibition.

 

[Hanna]

This is bringing too many (unpleasant) memories of Plushenko.

 

[Wyliefan]

All the respect for Les Gacs for debuting a new RD at the Olympics (evn if I'm not a big "Sex Bomb" fan ) and doing it with flair.

 

[BittyBug]

Why does everyone feel compelled to lip sync while they’re skating?

 

[terisa]

It's kind of weird watching knowing that all 17 couples coming up will probably slot in under the current #1...

 

[Theatregirl1122]

This is bringing too many (unpleasant) memories of Plushenko.

I can't imagine very many people have PLEASANT memories of Plushy's Sex Bomb.

 

[her grace]

L/LG

Good highlight moves, basic skating not as strong

 

[Desperado]

Marie-Jade - 100% a Sex Bomb

Romain was pretty good too. ;-)

 

[kwanfan1818]

I don't watch Chen very much, but to my eyes, Harris too often steps on the ice, rather than glides on her edges.

 

[Jay42]

Considering they've never skated this before this was pretty good. Also I would love to see them on Stars on Ice I think they'd do great with the crowd.
