#kamila valieva
I just had to draw the wonderfully talented Kamila Valieva and this gorgeous dress
When I said I wanted a figure skating scandal at the Games, I meant something along the lines of a drunk judge spilling tea on bribery, not a 15 year old getting disqualified because her famous for abuse coach was drugging her.
“Nathan, Yuzuru and Mikhail (in no particular order) & Sasha, Kamila and Alysa (also in no particular order) for Beijing 2022 podiums!!!”
“Petrosyan =’s Valieva, Valieva =’s Zagitova, Shcherbakova =’s Medvedeva, Akatyeva =’s Kostornaia, & Zhilina =’s Trusova.”
“When will the FS federations learn the lesson and stop hyping pre-teens/juniors/novices so much and naming them the next olympic champion, when they haven’t even finished growing and developing physically. Yes, I’m looking at you, Rusfed, and don’t get me started on the USFSA. I have no clue how they’re gonna fix the Alysa Liu problem, that was some big PR campaign gone to waste.”
“What sucks for Evgenia is that due to 3A being so strong, Kamila Valieva being the next star, and Alina coming back from her break, Evgenia has almost no chance at the Olympics because Eteri’s students get the ‘Eteri political bonus’ from the judges and the benefit of winning the slots from RusFed. I think she is screwed and that sucks.”
I don’t know what it is, but Eteri Tutberidze gives me major Cruella de Vil vibes - but instead of dalmatians she’s after Russian figure skaters
