Declaration of love by Tuktamysheva and a luxurious gift to Nugumanova

Fans of figure skating have long called Elizaveta Tuktamysheva the empress.

She herself happily supports this image and even releases her own clothing line under this name.

Moreover, the athlete would not mind performing on the ice under the hit of the same name by Irina Allegrova.

“I plan to prepare a new demonstration program for the World Championship.

But I don’t know if we will have enough time for that.

Naturally, I would like to come up with something new, so we will try ... A number for Allegrova's hit?

It is possible, but it is more suitable for Russian shows, and not for a global audience.

Although, if the public has such a desire, it can be done, "Tuktamysheva admitted in an interview with the Championship.

In addition, the 2015 world champion dispelled the myth that there is no place for friendship in figure skating, and rivals on the ice do not at all communicate with each other outside of it.

According to her, she considers Sofya Samodurova to be one of her close friends, whom she is always ready to help and give advice in case of difficulties.

“We talk in the locker room, discuss animals, cosmetics - everything is girlish.

It seems to me that there are always common topics of conversation here.

I have been in figure skating for so long that I already know everyone very well, so it is difficult to find new people for myself.

But I am happy for the younger generation.

Mark Kondratyuk is showing hope now.

Probably, I didn’t know him before this season, but now we have met, ”said the athlete.

A student of Alexei Mishin also told what programs of other skaters she likes to watch.

As for the show, this is the performance of the Spaniard Javier Fernandez in the form of Superman.

“Of the girls, I liked watching Kim YoonA for a while at the 2010 Olympic Games. One of the most ideal skating performances I can call Carolina Costner's rental under Ave Maria at the Sochi Olympics.

Almost everything was done perfectly there, ”Tuktamysheva admitted on the air at Clubhouse.

Indeed, skaters can celebrate each other's achievements.

So, three-time medalist of the world championships in ice dancing, Caitlin Weaver, in a peculiar way congratulated the Russian woman on the selection for the world championship, where she got on the results of the Russian Cup final.

"I love you as hell," Weaver wrote under Tuktamysheva's Instagram post.

The athletes selected for the championship of the planet are actively preparing for the tournament, which does not prevent them from enjoying simple everyday trifles.

Alexandra Trusova told about the addition to the “family” - a Basenji puppy.

The skater already has a Chihuahua Tina, a husky Jack and a poodle Lana, and the latter was given to her for the performance of the triple axel.

“My new dog is Alita.

For what?

Just like that! ”- shared Trusova.

And Elizaveta Nugumanova got a different gift.

She became the ambassador of the official Mercedes dealer in St. Petersburg and received one of the brand's cars, the price of which is estimated at about 5.5 million rubles.

Challenge Zagitova and filming in the series Medvedeva

2018 Olympic champion Alina Zagitova boasted of another achievement.

In September, she entered the Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration, and now she has passed the first session in her life.

The skater admitted that it was a difficult and exciting experience for her, however, being an athlete, she does not give up and even progresses in her studies, although she sometimes had to conduct online classes at the rink.

“I learned a lot for myself.

My great interest in the classes overlapped all the complexity that was sometimes present.

Plus, I made friends at the university.

They help me, give me a hint when it is necessary.

For example, they send lectures.

We have everything under control, ”Sport24 quotes Zagitova.

At the end of February, it was exactly three years since Zagitova won Olympic gold.

The athlete admitted that she did not have time to celebrate this event, but the fans did not ignore him.

They gave her many souvenirs, including a large portrait.

“As for the picture, it was made of puzzles.

There is even a video that I uploaded to Stories.

The work went on for an insane amount of time - they did everything with their own hands, carefully measured out.

If I started doing this ... I would just say "I will not do this" and put it aside.

Although I have patience and perseverance.

Now this picture hangs in my house.

And it reminds me of all the people who support me, ”said the skater.

Zagitova spends her free time from study and training on social networks and, like many, takes part in various challenges.

One of the most recent is "Ugly - Handsome" on TikTok.

Its participant first shoots himself from an unfavorable angle, and then moves the camera away.

It is worth noting that both plans of the athlete turned out to be very successful, which was noted by her subscribers.

And Evgenia Medvedeva became a participant in another, more serious international flash mob, also directly related to TikTok.

It is dedicated to International Women's Day.

Within its framework, women from all over the world talk about their achievements.

In addition to the figure skater, the project was curated by the entrepreneur Alexandra Zharkova and the singer Elizaveta Gyrdymova, better known as Monetochka.

Soon, another dream of Medvedeva may come true.

She will play herself in the new series "The Last Axel", which is currently being filmed in St. Petersburg.

In addition, the two-time world champion will act as a consultant.

It is known that the plot revolves around a young figure skater who comes to Moscow, where she gets to see a famous coach.

Her methods are quite harsh, but they lead to a positive result.

In addition to Evgenia, Alexey Yagudin will be involved in the film, who got the role of a choreographer. 

Show in honor and disqualification of Sotskova

On March 8, Alexey Mishin celebrated his 80th birthday.

In honor of this event, a grandiose show was held in St. Petersburg with the participation of leading figure skaters of the present and past.

Many surprises awaited his guests: Tuktamysheva presented a new demonstration program to the song by Diana Arbenina "A Seconds Ago", Alexander Samarin played the mentor himself, and then, together with Mark Kondratyuk, Dmitry Aliev and Makar Ignatov, performed a spectacular group number.

The host Maxim Trankov made fun of his colleagues, and the growing sports star Alexander Plushenko went out on the ice in the guise of a pirate and surprised those present with his technique.

Plushenko Sr. made a sincere speech that touched the hero of the occasion.

“You are the only one, beloved, unique.

Yes, we had all sorts of things - we quarreled and put up, quarreled and rejoiced, laughed a lot.

I could always rely on Alexei Nikolaevich.

I remember when I started winning the first competitions, I got some money, together we chose apartments first, then houses, he looked for me, looked for me.

We chose cars, dogs.

Alexey Nikolaevich is an avid dog lover.

As I.

This evening is yours, ”Plushenko said.

And fans of Maria Sotskova were waiting for unpleasant news.

The Russian Figure Skating Federation (FFKKR) has confirmed the 10-year disqualification of the figure skater accused by the Russian Anti-Doping Agency (RUSADA) of violating several rules at once.

Traces of illegal drugs were found in her samples, and she was also caught falsifying data.

At the same time, the athlete herself claimed that she was tested after she retired in June 2020.

The ex-mentor of Sotskova Elena Buyanova admitted that she was disappointed with the actions of the ward.

“Masha, skating with me, took part in the European, World and Olympic Championships.

We were focused on serious results, she was constantly under the supervision of doctors and always passed all the necessary tests.

Our work with her ended in 2019.

Now the questions are no longer for me, but for her subsequent coach Svetlana Sokolovskaya, "RIA Novosti quotes Buyanova.

One of the most high-profile events in recent days was the departure of Alena Kostornaya from the Evgeni Plushenko Academy, to which she joined last year.

Yagudin commented on this event, comparing figure skating with another popular sport in Russia.

"So.

And Guberniev says that biathlon is the coolest.

The figurine is definitely cooler.

The figurine drives.

I thought it would be quiet before the World Cup, but here ... We are stocking up on popcorn, "Yagudin wrote.
