I followed Plushenko’s wife on Instagram. She seems to be big into flower arranging.

I hardly believe it. She has housekeeper who is preparing her beautiful breakfasts and probably arranging the flowers every day the dinner set is in harmony with colours of flowers.. On her IG Yana advertising this company @lidseventhouse thus she receives those flowers for free every morning .. This company used to make the beautiful christmas and easter decorations for them every year.

Tatiana Navka - got over xxxxx xxxxxx. Released from Hospital.

«Все хорошо, выписалась, все нормально – отрицательный тест. Так что все в порядке. Муж идет на поправку, но все еще в больнице», – цитирует Навку телеграм-канал Life Shot.

"All is well, released, all is normal - tested negative. There fore all is in order. My husband is on his way to recovery, but remains in hospital".

When Plushenko was on, he owned the ice. There's a reason he has all those medals and titles.

Plushenko holds some incredibly expressive positions in that program. Takes the time to finish his movements. Brilliant.

Those were Nijinsky's original moves in his Afternoon of a faun ballet . Yuri Smekalov , principal dancer and choreographer at Mariinsky Theater choreographed the program. Plushenko read the book about Nijinsky's life when they started the work on this program. Masterpiece.

This is one of the few Plushenko programs that I like, and that performance was stellar.

Was it a Russian nationals performance?

Amen. ? At times, I think his larger-than-life personality has overshadowed his larger-than-life skating especially for fans who were too young to really remember how dominate he could be back in his day. I've always enjoyed Plushy. Plus, he makes me laugh — so there you go. ? ?

Nice! Who wouldn't love that?! It gets Evgeni off the hook, too! ?

Eta: their lockdown antics have been epic and yes, memorable. ?

so what's new in Russian skating?

I can’t find anywhere the composition of Russian junior team. :( They published only their senior and senior reserve teams, but not junior and junior reserve team. Considering that test skates are usually in August and therefore it is unlikely that it will happen this year, knowing who got into junior team would tell us who will get junior competitions (when they are finally going to take place).
 
Interesting interview of Russian junior pair Mukhortova/Evgeniev (but it is in Russian)

I’ve been completely converted by that skate. I had heard people say that Plushenko is/was electric to see live.

It’s always just so exciting to find an old skating video that literally jumps out and basically punches you in the face with its awesomeness.

I wondered about that as well, but then discovered that last year they published the team members list in mid-June. So maybe that will be the same time frame this year.
 
Natalia Zabiako made a decision to not pursue skating with another partner, and to fully devote herself "to cinema" and related creativity.

Наталья Забияко: «Сейчас хочется отдавать всю энергию миру кино. Сделать что-то большое, что может доставить людям радость»

A film is in works by Natalia's fiance, a film director Danil Grin'kin, staring Zabiako and Enbert. "The unbroken" will air in September 2020.

Due to "circumstances" Natalia's and Danil's wedding had to be postponed.

Коронавирус сорвал свадьбу фигуристки Забияко с режиссером

I totally enjoyed that and I don't think I have ever seen that particular performance before. Probably the best skating I've ever seen of his.
