I’m not sure that Maxime Rodriguez’ Tristan & Iseult (not Wagner, that would be interesting ) is a warhorse? Jason Brown had a great FS with it, but I don’t know anyone else who skated to it. Even if someone else did, it’s certainly not POTO or Carmen.
Just let them stay away from mustard yellow pants
Good for her...I thought people picked on her too much last year for her programs which brought her great success. Who cares what the picky folks say...,you do you Bradie! I love R&J and think it’s a great type of program to develop emotional presence on the ice. This should be a good fit...she seems kind of perfect for this style too and I think she likes and wants to go this direction.
I like Benoit Richard too. Anxiously awaiting the tango he and Serafima came up with. opcorn;
Is the choreographer French? Just curious. Induldge me.
For Bradie's R&J, I am holding out hope for two things:
1. Prokofiev. One of my FAAAVORITE warhorses. Gives me chills.
2. That her hair is NOT styled in that typical "Juliet" way with the little braid halo going around the back of her head. Also hoping she won't wear an overly stereotypical "Juliet" dress. Nofaux Renaissance gown bodice, no crosses , nothing like Nicole Rajicova, please.
The only two R&J dresses that look like R&J that I've liked are Sasha's (the gold dress might be even better, but the red was at the Olympics, so more recognizable) and So Youn's black dress.
I also loved Ashley's and Yulia's, though neither screamed R&J. Less is more, Bradie.
Why do I have a bad feeling that bradie will wear an immature corset-like dress and have a braid wrapped around her head.......? Please no. Just please, no. NO.

Karen Chen has changed SP. New one by Massimo Scali on Illumination - Fire Dance by Jennifer Thomas

But being Karen Chen, I guess we may have 3-4 more SPs before the end of the year
As much as the new music choice is very promising and I really want to see this new SP, I can't help but
Didn't she get choreography from Rohene earlier? Is this that program? Did he do the free?
I just hope she gets comfortable with her programs ... well soon...let's just say soon.
This girl is burning a lot of bridges in the skating community. She asks someone to do a program and does not use it. She did that with Misha Ge. No one will be doing her programs soon. I wish she would just challenge herself to something new not the same tango sounding music which she did for the past few seasons. Also stick with a program and quit changing around. Use the time to stabilize your jumps and work on the triple axle.
I doubt many choreographers care too much about whether or not a skater ends up using their program for long. They get paid for their choreo and if it's not used in the end, they still got paid? I mean unless Karen's behind on sending cheques, I doubt they'd have beef with her.

It was mentioned in the US ladies thread that Karen said somewhere that she wasn't sure if she could afford to skate until the next Olympics.
But maybe she'd save a bit of $$$ if she didn't hire so many choreographers for so many programs.
