It feels incredible to be a small part of the history that Alysa has made now. I think for most people, this Olympic gold dress will forever be etched in people's minds.
We were so happy to see Alysa Liu win the gold medal in Milan yesterday. My husband just showed me that in 2019 she skated to my song Don't Rain on My Parade. I'm so proud of her. Don't Rain on my Parade is the song Streisand made famous in the Broadway musical, Funny Girl, and in its 1968 film adaptation, for which she won the Academy Award for best actress.
While Chock and Bates, who have skated together for 15 years and got married in 2024, Fournier Beaudry and Cizeron shot to the top of the sport after just 11 months together. When the winning score was announced Cizeron hugged his coach and covered his face while crying. Chock and Bates, sitting next to the kiss-and-cry in white arm chairs reserved for the current leaders, clapped politely.
