O，这对也离了。。。
奥运会的时候还搭档解说来着呢，唉

贴吧里有人说是因为二人与CTV有解说合约，为对工作不造成影响，因此才硬拖到现在。
前段时间还听人说（不是贴吧的人），David Pelletier和Tessa Virture传绯闻，是不是真的啊？知情人来说说。

我也是道听途说，如有失实概不负责如有巧合纯属运气......好像是FSU在传，去年TEB的时候有人看到V和P逛街，再按照SP分居由此衍生出的8卦YY.....其实V和P到现在都还没被狗仔冰迷逮到约会之类的实际操作......
V和P的事据说已是子虚乌有。。。说实话，老找圈内人士真没劲，像罗大姐那样才好

“据说”，所以.....走着瞧吧......VM对伴侣的审美差距犹如当年TD、GP的审美差距......
罗大姐要真从了加冰协以前搞出的金玉组合，我只能说：罗大姐这一刻你被强大的TR女附体
罗大姐的BF是短道的，广义上来说也算圈内人士

话说P大叔也算是帅哥一枚，就是老了点。
也许是P成了VM的教练给了两人走近的机会吧。
个人意愿不希望这是真的，不过也只能看有没有新料爆出来了……
不过，VM之间的Gossip可是从来没断过吼~

花边归花边，青梅竹马十几年了要擦出火花早擦出来了，有时候就是一起长大太熟悉彼此了，一路顺利又缺少风雨磨难的拧合，反而少了那种使双方发酵的激情，这种人要真能凑到一起也是经历感情波折分分合合人到中年回首当年两小无猜......
不要问我为什么或者需要拿出证据，就是个人活了快三十年的直觉而已.....
据说，罗大姐和BF分了……
对啊~罗大姐的BF是SHORT TRACK的，也不能说是圈外吧。我觉得这样反而容易有共同语言，也比较有时间在一起。毕竟有可能SHARE一个RINK。

他们俩在17，18岁的时候是一对的。然后后来分了。

鱼头贴的这篇文章让人感觉真伤感啊！我从2002年冬奥会之后开始来年华也有10年了，感觉真是弹指一挥间啊。当年COI和SOI是多麽火爆，在夏天的时候几乎在美国每个城市都巡回演出，央视还有的时候在过年的时候放点职业演出，现在也都没有了。经济萧条，美国人也花不起钱搞这些了啊。。。黄金时代过去了。。

别说商演和职业比赛了，看看现在在北美办的大奖赛，四大洲神马的，那悲催的上座率{:soso__3858137384903145467_1:}
突然看到“最爱关颖珊”的身影了，感觉恍如隔世啊！
是啊，时间飞逝，年华也开了10年了。如今北美花样滑冰市场萧条，上海的反而开始火了：去年2个商演1个coc。今年过年开始商业冰场生意火爆，3月8日短道速滑世锦赛也落户上海。本人因为滑冰也上过几次电视了，嘿嘿～～
