I'm so glad the videos are available! I dvr'ed the show but Adam's segment paused/skipped (maybe it rained while I was away?) and I couldn't catch half of what he was saying or why the audience laughed! I got so frustrated I just deleted it.

Adam is an Olympic hero in every sense of the word! How awesome that he is using this platform that he is now on to try and raise funds for an awesome cause? I retweeted it and shared all over my social media!

I love the Access IG Story vids of Adam and Mirai! They are having too much fun!

He is appearing in so many places I don’t know how to keep up! LOL. Thrilled for him. Thanks for keeping us updated!

Wow! I sure hope there'll be some non-geoblocked vids floating around for us non-USians!

I noticed Adam was a guest at Ross Matthew's "Straight Talk" podcast (he's a comedian & RuPaul's Drag Race judge) back in January. It's available on iTunes but if you'd like to enjoy the view of Adam's face while listening to him talk, here's a YT link to the segment with Adam: https://youtu.be/GDs0wLn-p_U?t=43m44s

I sure hope this is a sign of things to come, i.e. we'll get to see Adam as a RPDR guest judge in the future... :cheer:

Finally: In our ongoing series of "Adam wins at twitter", here's the latest instalment! :rofl:https://twitter.com/Adaripp/status/968895547934261248

Are Colbert's clips usually geoblocked for you? They're fine in Canada.

Two Access videos with Mirai & Adam:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWqszRzDEyA
Olympic figure skaters Mirai Nagasu and Adam Rippon are hitting the Oscars this weekend as Access' guests of honor, and according to Mirai she's going to come prepared just in case her bestie gets some lip action. The duo reveal who they can't wait to hit the dance floor with, who they want to meet at the Oscars and which movies they've totally lied about seeing.

Adam Rippon and Mirai Nagasu are headed to the 90th annual Academy Awards on Sunday with Access, and they've got a special message for "I, Tonya" star Margot Robbie. Margot — they're ready for a three way with you — but there is a catch!

Adam's recent Instagram stories showed photo shoots with InStyle (on the beach) and Rolling Stone (one shoot looks like it took place at his rink in Lakewood, according to Romain Ponsart's current Instagram story?).

Today's Oscars day! I've started this thread for all figure skater-related news/photos/videos from the red carpet, etc.: https://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/threads/figure-skaters-other-olympians-at-the-oscars-2018.103548/

ETA that Adam's GLAAD fundraiser seems to be doing well 3 days after Ellen DeGeneres'/Shutterfly's initial $10,000 donation on her show: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/adamrippon

I guess Ill put this in the Adam thread..

Guess who ANL just ran into again this morning at coffee. Gus Kenworthy.

Saw him in line but I thought his IG stories said he is in NYC.

ANL has no shame. Never has. So of course I yell out "Gus!" He comes over and I start my diarrhea of the mouth. I mentioned I was watching his IG stories where he sat next to Adam on the flight back to the States.

He said he is in town for tonights Vanity Fair and Elton John parties. He is staying across the street from me.

SO cool to run into him like that again.
 
It's a little minimalist to be steampunk, my first thought was bondage too. :shuffle:

I love Mirai's dress! It's lovely!
 
Adam Rippon Is Wearing Moschino Harness at The Oscars: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/oscars-2018-adam-rippons-tuxedo-1091066
The risk-taking Rippon stepped out on the red carpet in a cropped black suit with cold-shoulder detail, matching trousers and –the standout piece—a studded leather chest harness—all by Jeremy Scott for Moschino.
“Not only is Adam an amazing athlete, he is an inspiration to me for his unfailing determination to speak his truth and combat bigotry and hate with love and intelligence!” Scott exclusively told THR today. “Being an Olympic athlete, Adam has a great physique to dress and his personality is so vibrant—he is the ideal man for me to dress on the Oscars red carpet!
“His tux is a nod to Old Hollywood with a twist,” says Scott. “I’ve exposed the shoulders; we mixed this with a black leather harness and patent leather bow tie and satin cummerbund.”
