Ok, am I mad or have I seen this Fin coach on "Botched"?

The oldest woman to land a quadruple jump in competition. She's 20. I'll let you decide what that says about the sport.

68.65 = 1st Place

 

[Frau Muller]

Rion Sumiyoshi of Japan, excellent! I love her footwork to the Arabic music.

 

[Colonel Green]

Rion surprisingly muted in reaction to that score.

Schild, Lorine
Coach: Malika Tahir

[PRlady]

Rion is skilled and shows some expression but something is still missing, not sure what.

 

[airgelaal]

Lorine jumps are wild

 

[Theatregirl1122]

What bothers me especially about all the cutouts is that they have to aesthetic reason to exist in most cases. It's like someone designed a dress, heard cutouts were in, and then just threw one in somewhere that makes no sense.

 

[skatingguy]

It seems Rion robbed a jewelry store

Let's be honest - she robbed a craft store, not a jewelry store.

Consistency from a French female skater - what is the world coming to?

Two Finnish women skaters use to Miley Cyrus music. Props to them.

 

[airgelaal]

At least it was a nice song in Spanish

 

[Wyliefan]

Mark does a very nice French accent (at least to my untrained ear!).

I know you have expensive tastes - you can recognize costume jewelry when you see it.

Gutmann, Lara Naki

[Primorskaya]

I really like this programme, but she seems a bit emotionless skating it, and I think it calls for big expression.

Solid skate for Gutmann. This program doesn't have the same impact as her free skate.

'Toy soñando con irme del barrio.
Tengo todo pa' ser millonario,
Gustos caros, la mentalidad.
Solo me falta el salario.

I'm a Shakira fan

Everyone wants to be Madison Chock?

 

[PRlady]

Unhappy with that score but this seems a low-scoring panel. No one was happy with their marks.

Is that a different body suit than Amber wore last time? I don't remember it being so... ugly.

It looks the same to me.

[PRlady]

No medal for Starr here.

 

[airgelaal]

No medal for Starr here.

I wouldn't be so sure. Girls tomorrow can remember that they are girls

 

[Frau Muller]

I enjoyed Starr’s dancing elements!

 

[skatfan]

I really admire Starr for continuing after heart surgeries and bringing her point of View to skating
