Bode is one hell of an athlete.

Everyone involved acted like a jerk in my opinion. It was spun hard to cast it in shades of black and white, but the whole thing was grey. He filed for custodial and parental rights in California before she moved to NYC, which was the judge initially ruled in his favor before it was brought back to the…
I feel for you. I'm a WOC, and one of my best friends from college was dating a guy like that (and had become bffs with his equally obnoxious, racist, and slut-shaming sister). She slowly cut herself out of our old group and spent most of her time with his sister, his sister's friends, and the jerk.....Eventually,…
Adding that they substitute judges all the time, but those people??? Yeah...shady. Katarina Witt basically lost her shit on TV over the fact that Yuna wasn't awarded the gold, and apparently Kurt Browning heavily insinuated he thought there was something up.
Meh. Both Kurt Browning and Katarina Witt flat out said Yuna was robbed. They know their shizz. While Sotnikova had a more "difficult" program, two footing a jump is not a tiny error and her grade of execution should have been marked way down in several areas....Not to mention that essentially her artistry was…
She was SO angry (my friend texted me about it and we were talking about this....even Johnny Weir and Scott Brown pretty heavily insinuated this was shady as eff). I think a lot of figure skating people were beyond pissed because of the shady connections the judges have (and I wish Phoenix had included that). One…
Yes. Not to mention Phoenix left out the very pertinent fact that one of the judges is the wife of the president of the Russian Skating Federation, and the other was suspended by the IOC for trying to fix ice dancing in the 1998 Olympics (and shouldn't have even been judging). I usually enjoy Phoenix's writings, but…
Agreed. Not to mention that Phoenix left out the SHADY as hell fact that two of the judges have dubious connections. One is the wife of the president of the Russian Skating Federation, while the other was suspended for trying to fix the ice dancing back in the 1998 Olympics.
Um, Phoenix? You are leaving out the fact that TWO Judges have very shady connections. They switched out the judges from the short to long, which they always do.....EXCEPT one is the wife of the Russian Skating Federation President, and the other was suspending for accusations of trying to fix ice dancing back at the…
I was so excited when I first heard the rumors about Vin being involved because I wanted him to voice Rocket for some reason—-just imagining his weird, big bass voice coming out of a raccoon! Bradley will be fine though imo.
One of the other judges was the wife of the President of the Russian Skating Federation. They "substituted" for two different judges who had judged the short program. So yeah, it was super shady.
True, and I assume Miley often gathers the same "heated" responses.
Do they hate Taylor Swift on here? Who knows? Honestly, I think people kind of get extreme in "hating" (Miley is the devil, cultural appropriation, etc.) or "deifying" celebs (like we have to be bffs with Jennifer Lawrence for example). It's all kind of overboard imo. Just seems random how certain celebrities get…
Katy has done it in the past, but in my opinion this is not a case of cultural appropriation. At the same time, I wonder why Jezebel fawns over her so much when she's espoused some distinctly un-feminist ideas and has participated in cultural appropriation and been downright creepy about it (going on about how cute…
I've known people where the weight goes straight to their ass or their stomach. I used to work with this woman who had slenderish arms and legs and a big belly (I don't feel bad talking about it because she used to bring up her weight problems). Anyway, there are definitely people who dramatically and…
*meant to add that even the sons of prominent people are kind of terrified about being "open"
Story time (a sad and ironic story). I have some family that recently emigrated from Tehran because they wanted a better life for one of my cousins (who is gay) and because they are liberal people....and well obviously Iran wasn't the place (nor really safe, although there are definitely pockets in the upper-class…
I'm kind of wondering too about home ice and figure skating politics. There's no denying she's excellent, but the judging is sometimes a little shady in the first place...and in the motherland with Yulia? That may tip her over Yuna or Mao.
I know....I just wanted a feature film...I'm excited for the series, though.
August 1st isn't a dumping ground for blockbusters..indies or standard adult dramas, yes. But for blockbusters, it's early enough but it's also a little "safer" than throwing it in the middle of July to compete against the multiple other juggernauts. A winter release would be worrisome.
