There was quite a hullabaloo over the the possible awkwardness of an Israeli brother/sister Ice Dancing team dancing sensually to Schindler's List. So-much-so that NBC didn't even air it last night. Well just how tawdry was it? Video inside.
I don't know how to explain everything that this post contains in a lede, but I'll try: tonight's Olympic ice dancing was... INSANE. Inside, Linkin Park, Requiem for a Dream, Home Alone, a sexxxy commercial and Schindler's List—seriously.
Watching the brave dudes of ice dancing last night (jovial Agosto! dashing Moir!) and then considering the rowdy antics of snowboarders, we got to wondering: What is it like when two very different athletes meet in the Olympic Village?
Russia's Ice Dancing pair took to the Olympic ice tonight with toned down versions of the Aboriginal costumes that drew criticism at last month's European Championship. The skin-darkening makeup? Gone. Their dance was still offensive, though—and it sucked.
Athletes know the importance of getting loose before they go out to perform. Well someone should tell China's ice dancing team that they should warm up their muscles—not their loins.
Tis the season when girls in sparkly miniskirts—who are better athletes than you'll ever be—venture out onto the cold, unforgiving ice and perform christmas miracles. Or fall on their face. Enjoy this brutal compilation of figure skater falls.
