We’ve come a long way in 4 years. Because in this Vancouver Winter Olympics, men’s figure skating was hot pink and dramatically entertaining. Let’s not forget, there were a lot of falling and slipping, and a little bit of bitchy whining by the blond silver medalist. But who cares of about the medals when stimulating personas dominated the ice.
Evan Lysacek is a combination of a symphonic black stallion and a stoic, with slightly cheese, fairy tale prince who commands respect from his villagers in the Mediterranean. Because whatever Evan whispers: they listen. Whatever Evan dictates: they follow. Whatever Evan spits at: they clean up. We really did’t care about his quadruple loops, as long as he swirled on ice wearing his big shoulder padded Vera Wang draped with crystal serpents. Evan owned the ice with his strong demeanor and masculinity. But then…
He decided take his skates off and wore his hair down like a toupee on Larry King show. By covering his forehead with swept bangs, which offset the elongated his face and Greek nose, making him look like an 18 year old alter boy. Sigh. What a buzz kill.
He then said I would love to try out for Dancing With the Stars.
