Papadakis CIzeron #4 - Happiness Does Not Wait

[Nmsis]

Breathe, pani. Breathe.
And since all your messages are about V/M, may I suggest you to turn your attention to their thread ?
Pretty please.

VM didn't choose Latch, it was Marie, she choose Sorry for them. They didn't want Prince, but it was coaches choice.
She is smart woman. She play last season like VM got better SD and PC FD. And this season she will play like she need - for PC gold at OG and for VM chance to get medal at team events. Sad, but look like SC like this and support this idea.

Some people have war in their countries, and the animals are all going extinct somewhere, one time a streaker came out onto the ice before Michelle Kwan gave a clutch performance, and she still hit the program and received the final 6.0's in World Championship history. plenty of puppies go without food and shelter on a daily basis.

Virtue and Moir could handle all of those things because they're one of the best teams ever and they will be fine. You need to go. #byefelicia

Well at least this dormant thread has been awaken, that's for sure I'm very curious to see the collaboration between Dean and P/C. He has been a tiny been critical of them skating in a similar style so has he accepted with an agenda in mind ? I love Dean/Torvill rumba, they had such crisp yet smooth edges and he was a strong male lead as well. Perfect to bring out something new in P/C's skating.

I'll never be convinced otherwise that pani is just short for panic.

Ok, just discovered this Jamie Cullum cover of Shape of you (Ed Sheeran) and I need them to do an Ex on it , so sultry and sensual

I'd rather have them skate to whale sounds, but as long as they don't pick Josh Groban...

Nothing beats whales sounds but it's not as sexy for a gala and I did enjoy their Boston Ex on can't feel my face.
BTW, I hope you're not comparing Jamie Cullum to Josh Groban and to prove how good a Jamie Cullum Exhibition can be, I'll let you enjoy this

BTW: Over at the Dance Hall, @Ka3sha posted a link to a photo album of Helsinki SPs. Good ones of Gabriella and Guillaume there, too.

 

[Enchanted]

Now I'm getting excited!

I follow some of the dancers of American Ballet Theater in Instagram and Jeffrey Cirio just posted this.

 

[MarieM]

Ok so I now understand a criptic message from a french ballet dancer who said he was sad he couldn't do more ice dancing choreography.
I still wish they'd go for my top pick of last season, Crystal Pite. But still, it's ballet

Can you tell us which French ballet dancer you're talking about ? Just curious.
I don't know how to take this news, does it mean their FD is gonna be inspired by an existing ballet trying to close the loop with their Mozart which started it all for them ? Are they just exploring more balletic movements yet applying it to modern music ? It's getting exciting and with the Junior competitions starting, the season is upon us. We still don't know if they'll do a B competition though.

Samuel Munez. He's a POPB dancer although not a very high ranked one. Still, he has done for "3ème étage" some pretty modern ballet choreography on warhorses. I loved his choreography for Swan Lake.

 

[Karpenko]

Everyone is going to be so let down now if their music isn't really Moonlight Sonata. this is why I hate rumors, sometimes they're just really really good ideas that seem perfect, but then you're thrown a curve ball and it turns out to be an Olympic polka FD. I hope it's something classical nonetheless and full of ballet!

 

[RoseRed]

To use for OG music like Moulin Rouge against Moonlight Sonata didn't show prioritizing P/C over V/M?
VM spended time on ice with junior teams, spanish team and 10 others, when PC have there own space. PC used Dean for SD, when VM use Sam, who isn't latin dancer at all.

They all get equal ice time and time with coaches, etc. Don't know where you got this from. Madison and Zach have talked about how they sometimes share the ice with each of V/M and P/C, the Danes have said the same thing. That's one of the great things about this coaching school; there's no possibility of it seeming like one team gets more time/attention than another, because there is a super detailed schedule that all the teams see.

VM didn't choose Latch, it was Marie, she choose Sorry for them. They didn't want Prince, but it was coaches choice.

They said they really wanted to do Prince? Honestly this is so random.

Back on topic, working with Dean is a good idea for them. I'm sure he'll help them to make this latin SD their own. And it's always nice to see skaters/teams wok with new choreographers.

If they have chosen a ballet FD, I'll be over the moon!

Fight Club meet dirty dancing I love those guys, esp her, she's so funny and really doesn't take herself seriously. This photo is quite steamy too.

 

[Bellanca]

P&C never have to try too hard, period. All they have to do is roll out of their beds in the morning, hit the ice and win the comp. That's how magnetic they are!

Another photo from the same interview. Guillaume is wearing a striped tee-shirt, so typically French... Well I love to wear them too so I fully support his frenchiness.

PS: first comment is from Aljona Savchenko how

 

[Karpenko]

It's a wonderful feeling when all of my favorite skaters love/respect each other. they can see the light, I really know how to pick 'em.

I think it's also partly because Aljona wants an NBC Olympic fluff of her own (and I don't blame her one bit).

They're working with a ballet instructor (which is not Latin) and the V/M Moulin Rouge rumor is correct, so.. my hopes are officially up about a potential Moonlight Sonata FD.

I hope that French journalists will start thinking about Gabriella and Guillaume, not just a week before the Olympics...

When is Masters this year?

Yessssssssss exactly what have been hoping they would do. A B event outside France with enough time, a month, to tweak their programs. They'll also face C/L which is good competition.

 

[Finnice]

They are most welcome to Finlandia!

Are you planning on going you lucky lucky one ?

Are you planning on going you lucky lucky one ?

I live 30 minutes drive from the venue. So, yes. (Even though I will miss the SD due to some silly work things in another town on Sat.)
You do not have to bribe me to cheer to Gabi and Guillaume. I will do it for free.
