Alysa's quote from ISU's Grand Prix Final Women's recap (Dec. 6, 2025): https://isu-skating.com/figure-skat...-soars-to-gold-in-isu-grand-prix-final-debut/

She is preparing to reveal her new Lady Gaga Free Skating at the US Nationals in January.

“I already have it, it’s already done. Just haven’t shown it,” Liu revealed. “Now I’m keeping it a secret. I’m waiting for the dress and the competition to do it!

Alysa has shared 19 photos from the GPF in Nagoya: https://www.instagram.com/p/DSBGfdMErWB/

Thanks! Here's the article version: https://www.kcra.com/article/dying-to-ask-podcast-alysa-liu-burnout-comeback/69483799

Alysa started skating for fun, and it wasn't long before she got the itch to skate more seriously. She called a former coach, Phillip DiGuglielmo, and asked him what he thought about her coming out of retirement. At first, he wasn't a fan.
"I said, 'Please don't. I really did.' I said, 'Please don't. Respect your legacy,'" DiGuglielmo said. "We had a Zoom call for two hours. The story is I had a lot of glasses of wine over those two hours. And she talked me into a comeback."
