明天就大游行庆祝了。我们将有前哨在现场带来火线报道。
这篇文章
看点1:哈哈,看,Tina就是做FBI专家的料。那天大家说到Scott从Mexico回来,然后和Tessa拍了那张全身白色衣服的照片。有人指出Tessa也晒黑了。然后我敏锐察觉到,关注法网的关系,就是巴黎一直在下雨,是不可能被晒黑的。于是我提出,她肯定没有去巴黎。后来大家都同意,然后发展发展就变成她也去Mexico了。。。。现在,看Tessa的确没去巴黎,说去了个沙滩。为撒不说是哪个沙滩?!London是内陆没撒好沙滩的,整个TEAM CANADA都在MEXICO,你应该也是在那里吧~~后面的八卦大家自己想。
看点2:有必要什么采访什么文章都特地强调你俩是“同事”关系么?没看出来这篇文章和ROMANCE有什么关系。欲盖弥彰啊。。。
看点3:Goose的使命终结了。新的奥运周期,希望他们能够想出更加BH的LIFT!
Well, guess what the ice dance champs were up to a day before their celebratory homecoming parade and party in Ilderton starting Saturday afternoon at 3 p.m.?
“Yes, we’ve been back on the ice,” the 21-year-old Virtue admitted. “We scheduled our practice (Friday) for 6 a.m. (at training base in Canton, Mich.,) so we could drive back home right after and be able to relax a little bit before the big day.
“Marina (their coach Marina Zoueva) understands.”
Virtue doesn’t know what’s in store for her and Moir today in Ilderton. But she realizes it will be massive — from the number of family, friends and well-wishers to four bands, a host of torch-relay participants and another effort to paint the town red.
“There’s nothing small about the way Ilderton does things,” she said. “Everything they do, they always do in a big way. They’ve always been so supportive to us and it’s going to be a lot of fun to see everyone again.”
There hasn’t been much of an opportunity since striking gold at the Pacific Coliseum in February.
“We came home after the Olympics but it felt like everything happened so quick,” Virtue said. “All of a sudden, we were back in Michigan training for worlds, then worlds were in Italy, and after that, we went right out on tour. We just got back from shows in Korea. It’s been pretty hectic.”
At one point, Virtue and Moir managed to fit in a week of separate vacations.
“I knew if I went to Paris, I’d be walking around the whole time and going in the stores,” Virtue said, “so instead, I sat on a beach for a week. It was great.”
They did stop back in London for a show during the Ontario swing of the month-long Stars on Ice. Another day, Virtue dropped into her big brother Casey’s Grade 8 class at Bloordale in Toronto with gold medal in tow. It was the ultimate show and tell.
“That’s been the best part of traveling around Canada is being able to meet people and share the medal with everyone,” she said. “Starting in Halifax and ending in Vancouver again, it was far enough away from the Olympics that you wondered what the reaction would be. It was great, very warm. I’m still so surprised that people even know who we are.”
Olympic gold is, after all, a magnet. “A lot of people want to kiss the medal,” she said, “but there hasn’t been anything really wacky.”
There will, next skating season, be at least one retirement: The famous signature Goose lift is going to be gonzo.
“For competitions, I think we’re going to go in a different direction,” Virtue said. “We’ll probably have it for shows, of course, and nothing is definite. We’re just listening to music right now, thinking about our programs for next year. We’re looking at all new lifts, new steps and spins.
“It’s a new season.”
While they’re partying in Ilderton, the new frontiers of ice dance will start to be hashed out at the International Skating Union congress in Spain this week.
The final nail in the coffin of compulsory dance could be hammered home for good. That’ll make Moir gleeful, for sure.
The original dance, which created such controversy over the Russians’ interpretation of Aboriginal culture, is expected to be transformed into a two-minute, 50-second “short dance” in an attempt to modernize the event.
Much to the chagrin of some fans, Virtue and Moir — Canada’s Sweethearts — simply remain a successful business relationship. |
