2026 Olys Gala - In This Sheet / Time To Say Good Bi(sexual Boards)

[Matryeshka]

This song is a little on the nose for Amber. Love it, and the look

 

[Hanna]

Marchei and Agosto is a random duo I never knew I needed.

 

[Karen-W]

I'm a bit behind on my stream (paused it to get my lunch fixed) - just watched Team Italy's performance - just sublime!

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Amber just won a whole slew of new admirers.

 

[barbk]

Wow, Amber!!!

 

[slicekw]

If Sports Illustrated still does a Body issue with athletes posing in tasteful nude, Amber ought to be invited to pose. Photographed to show her amazing back and arms, of course.

 

[Jay42]

This is a good program for Amber just generally.

 

[Sally1214]

I loved that exhibiiton by Amber. Like seeing her with her hair down like that.

 

[Matryeshka]

Ahh, Piper and Paul. shouldbetherealwinnersintheFDgrumblegrumble I am BITTER. And will continue to be BITTER.

 

[Karen-W]

Isn't this the same program Amber had for the "Making the Team" gala at Nats?

 

[Karen-W]

Oh, these costumes for Gilles/Poirier are unfortunate.

 

[Wyliefan]

Beautiful program. And Piper's smile popped out the instant they were done.

 

[Jay42]

I love Piper and Paul but this feels like a program that plays better in person. On TV it kind if feels a little snoozy.

 

[Sally1214]

Beautiful program by Piper and Paul.

 

[Wyliefan]

Alexei always reminds me of an actor, but I'm not sure which one. Matthew Macfadyen, maybe?

 

[tangerine dream]

OMG the team event should require a team skate.

Ooh fun, we could get more programs like Gregory/Petukhov/Weir's Fallen Angels.

 

[Sally1214]

Maria and Alexei are wonderful skaters but Kiss is a song that NEVER should have been recorded by Tom Jones. What on earth was Prince thinking when he agreed to THAT?

 

[Spikefan]

We need more pair men to go the Cizerone costume route.

 

[Jay42]

That might be the most confusing version of Sex Bomb I've ever heard.

 

[flyingsit]

Cha should bring back JULIET in an exhibition

 

[Karen-W]

I love Maria's unitard. Gorgeous color on her.

 

[Matryeshka]

Remind me why we let the Rungarians do exhibitions again? That applies to the Georgians too.

 

[MacMadame]

I love Cha but his love for floppy shirts confounds me. Though that looks like one he wore in competition. Did he not expect to be invited to the Gala?

 

[Sally1214]

Cha should bring back JULIET in an exhibition

He can skate to anything, as far as I'm concerned. He's just SO darn cute. Oh ... and, of course, his edges and flow are good too.

 

[Karen-W]

I love Cha but his love for floppy shirts confounds me. Though that looks like one he wore in competition. Did he not expect to be invited to the Gala?

On first glance I thought it was the same but it's not. This one has a lace overlay on the front panels as well as the back shoulder section. And the sleeves have whickety-whack on them. Plus, his FS blouse was satin and this seems closer to muslin or a light cotton.

OMG the team event should require a team skate.

Why doesn’t Team Japan get a skate together? Is it b/c there were so many medalists on the team they couldn’t fit them into the last group of exhibitions?

 

[Hanna]

Not sure what Cha's music is but I love it (except maybe the voice of the singer at times). Reminds me of some of the gala stuff Hanyu used to do.

 

[Wyliefan]

Italy's the host country. I don't think the organizers were just handing out team skate slots like candy.

 

[Spikefan]

I guess there is one “good” thing from these themed RDs, easily recyclable gala program.

Kurt Browning making a swing rolls joke!
