    Mirai Nagasu Cheer thread: Return to Olympus

    This reminds me of how Mirai talked about how she met with a publisher after the Olympics and was told that she didn't have enough of a social media following to do a book. Though who knows these days with people paying for followers. Obviously Adam was going to get to do a book after the...

    New Gracie Gold Interview About 2016 World Championships and Mental Health

    I always respected how Gracie said point blank to the Skating Lesson in 2015 that she wanted to win 2016 worlds, and I was sad for her the next season when she said that she regretted ever saying that. Also, I wish that someone would offer her a book deal!

    Mirai Nagasu Cheer thread: Return to Olympus

    Polina was at nationals doing coverage for NBC Bay Area. She strikes me as very ambitious and has said that doing commentary is a goal of hers. I'm not sure if Mirai has mentioned anything about wanting to do commentary, at least not recently. On Mirai and Polina's instagram show, they said that...

    Mirai Nagasu Cheer thread: Return to Olympus

    I agree that it’s a bit odd, but do the celebrities (or should I say “celebrities") who go on Big Brother get paid to be on the show, in addition to getting paid for each week they stay/competing for the grand prize? I think they do. Maybe it was too good of an offer to turn down and Mirai wants...

    U.S. Ladies [#27]: A Time to Reboot

    I really wouldn't overthink Vincent's Instagram re: Gracie's triple axel on a harness and his quad sal comment (especially the quad, it seemed like a supportive and playful comment that he was making to me in response to her triple "you know what comes next!"), I don't see any issue with her...

    Mirai Nagasu Cheer thread: Return to Olympus

    I was there, and let me tell you, Mirai looked INTENSE during the warmups! I think she was just really focused, but her concentration didn't break even though she was getting some huge cheers. You would think she was preparing for something other than a fluff competition from her expression...

    Mirai Nagasu Cheer thread: Return to Olympus

    I think that Mirai and Ashley have a great deal of respect for each other as skating peers, and have always appeared friendly to me. Jonathan Van Ness asked something to the effect of whether it was awkward between them when Mirai was on his podcast, and Mirai sounded very genuine in saying...

    https://www.timesunion.com/auroragames/article/13-year-old-national-champion-figure-skater-joins-14173634.php Mirai will be at the Aurora Games in August, along with Ashley Wagner and Alysa Liu.

    Mirai Nagasu Cheer thread: Return to Olympus

    Aw, that’s so nice to see :) Also, I can probably watch Mirai compete without having a heart attack for once. I saw Mirai on ice in person for the first time this year on SOI, she looked like she was having SO much fun in the 90s number. I went with a non-skating fan and during the closing...

    U.S. Stars on Ice tour, April 18 - May 18, 2019

    I was also there, and it definitely got me thinking about how different it must be to project to an audience with lots of empty seats vs a packed arena. The skaters performed like they had a full audience. Ashley in particular injected a lot of energy and pizazz into her performances. I loved...

    Mirai Nagasu Cheer thread: Return to Olympus

    I’m so glad that Mirai got to fulfill both her DWTS and RuPaul’s Drag Race ambitions :40beers: She seems to be living her best life with her internship and speaking engagements (looks like she is going going to be a panelist for this event hosted by the Pasadena Tournament of Roses...

    U.S. Ladies [#25]: Method in the Madness

    So it looks like Raf is also denying that there has even been any issue in terms of training between Mariah and Eunsoo (but I will agree with people who have said that Raf could have been unaware of other things going on, but it seems like he would be aware if it had escalated to the point of...

    U.S. Ladies [#25]: Method in the Madness

    Yep. Especially since a lot of the Lakewood skaters seem reflexively protective of Mariah in this situation/her boyfriend trains with her (I saw on Twitter people posting a comment that Romain supposedly made and deleted, but I'm not reposting its contents since I did not see it in real time...

    U.S. Ladies [#25]: Method in the Madness

    "slashing", "stabbing"....Jesus. I could buy that perhaps Mariah and Eunsoo do not get along (which is allowed too by the way), is there a serious person who thinks that this would have been intentional? I think people, at least me, are more curious of the bullying claim, because it seems like...

    U.S. Ladies [#25]: Method in the Madness

    Mariah got very lucky with the toe not being called, but pretty sure that is her personal best. Yea for making the final group!
