Jimmy Ma Doubles for Rapper in Figure Skating-Themed Rap Video

[VGThuy]

Thought I'd share rapper Rich Brian's recently released figure skating-themed video "Cold". It almost has 2 million views on YouTube. Never thought I'd see the day where somebody raps seriously while wearing a figure skating costume and doing figure skating moves (with a double obvs) without making it a joke.

Jimmy Ma was the body double which makes sense as they have a very similar look and build:

I bet his Nationals SP going viral made this connection for him.

Yay for Jimmy Ma getting to be in a music video about skating! Never thought I'd see this. The costume looks really wacked out, like something that belonged in "Blades of Glory," but I like the skating and the innovative merging of the rapper and Jimmy's skating.

I LOVE guys in tutus! I think a real Mens figure skater should get a costume like that. It was fun!
