Frozen in time By Chris McKendry Page 2 columnist She made a sport a billion-dollar spectacle. She turned ice princesses into bankable personalities. In this case, crime did pay ... for everyone except Tonya Harding. Forget the French judge. Next to the original, Marie-Reine Le Gougne was a weak follow-up. Harding, the trailer park pixie, is no more vicious than Dr. Evil, and she's just as funny. She's horrible, yet harmless. And she piques both my interest and my sympathy. With her hair-sprayed big bangs and Wet n' Wild lipstick, Harding is frozen in time. She's waiting for 1994 to call and offer a second chance at life. It's Jan. 6, 1994, 2:35 p.m. in Detroit. Harding's then-husband Jeff Gillooly along with friends Derrick Smith, Shawn Eckardt and Shane Stant pull off the stunt. They club Harding's rival, Nancy Kerrigan, on the knee at the Olympic Trials. Fifty days later, Kerrigan gives the skate of her life at the Lillehammer Olympic Games. She settles for a silver medal. Harding, meanwhile, is a mess. She cries on the ice, insists a skate lace is broken, gets a re-skate. And finishes eighth.

63. ESPN Classic - Graceful Kwan Still Seeking Gold Michelle Kwan won a silver medal in figure skating at the 1998 Olympics in Nagano . At 13, Kwan finished second to tonya harding at the 1994 Nationals. http://espn.go.com/classic/biography/s/Kwan_Michelle.html

ESPN Network: ESPN.com NBA.com NHL.com WNBA.com ... Other sports ALSO SEE Kwan captures fourth World crown Graceful Kwan still seeking gold By Bob Phillips Special to ESPN.com "Michelle's a tiger underneath. She's a great fighter, a great competitor. She has a really passive outside and she's really easy going. Everybody loves her and she's a great girl. But at the same there's this real warrior inside that wants to accomplish these things," says two-time world figure-skating champion Brian Boitano on ESPN Classic's SportsCentury series. Style has always been her calling card. At 5-foot-2 and 100 pounds, Michelle Kwan is one of the most graceful athletes ever to compete in figure skating. She's won five world championships and nine national titles, tying for the most in history. "Michelle puts her heart and soul out there with incredibly beautiful movements," said two-time Olympic champion Katarina Witt. But Kwan's legacy will not be golden. Instead, she will be remembered most for the two gold medals she failed to win. Twice, she led going into the free-skating program at the Olympics. Twice, she faded, looking too slow and too conservative. Twice, it was younger and more enthusiastic teenagers who ripped Olympic gold from Kwan's grasp with breath-taking performances, the kind that Kwan had given so often. At the 1998 Winter Games in Nagano, Japan, it was 15-year-old Tara Lipinski. Four years later in Salt Lake City, it was 16-year-old Sarah Hughes.

Oh, and I almost forgot: the CHICKS. If you're a guy, the only possible reason you have ever watched figure skatingeven if it is during the Olympicsis because 1.) your girlfriend is making you watch, which is simply pathetic; 2.) you're gay; or 3.) you're trying to catch a peek at the scantily-clad, barely-legal, and occasionally HOT skaters as they jump, twirl, and shake their booty for the judges, the audience, and yes, even YOU. You know what I'm talking about: if you squint your eyes just hard enough, it almost looks like they're dancing around in their underwear. The women's skating finals has always been one of the most highly anticipated events of the winter games. It is a tradition that has gone back to the days when guys had to suffer through the more conservative and squeaky-clean likes of Dorothy Hamill and Peggy Fleming. But as the times changed, men were introduced to a different kind of figure skater. Perhaps the first skater that comes to mind is everyone's favorite Eastern Block hottie (and eventual

Home About Links Contact Celebrity Arrests: How the Mighty Have Fallen April 26, 2005 Celebrity scandal and arrests have always been a favorite focus of public scrutiny. We love to see the mighty fall, the powerful crumble and the beautiful get caught with heroin. It's like the sweet froth on a cappuccino or the thrill of not getting pregnant despite lack of condom. I may not be wildly rich, but at least the cops aren't busting down my door when I'm trying to play my bongos naked high on pot. Just ask Matthew McConaughey. This being one of my pet topics (along with eating disorders), I've already discussed a number of the fallen famous elsewhere on sweatpantserection.

On April 19, 2005, a judge issued a warrant for her arrest after she failed to appear in court to face charges of allegedly ripping down a mirror in her neighbors' apartment and "threatening to molest their dog." We thought it was bad that Michael Jackson molests boys; now Natasha Lyonne wants to defile your dog.

Figure skating is one of the most popular of the winter games, or at least the one the mosor at least the one most fraught with emotion. One of the reasons is the way the media portray the competitors as characters in a melodrama. [PRINCESS MUSIC] MALE ANNOUNCER: They are the princesses of figure skating. [DRAMATIC MUSIC] And tonight four women will take the ice looking to join that list of legends. A 23 year old Russian who re-discovered her love for the sport.

Show All Days Site Search: Jealousy on Ice By JERE LONGMAN January 6, 1994 DETROIT [Thursday] - Nancy Kerrigan, the United States' best female figure skater and one of the goldmedal favorites for the 1994 Olympics, was attacked after practice today by an unidentified man who struck her on the right knee with a blunt object and escaped. The attack jeopardized Kerrigan's chances of qualifying for the Winter Games next month in Lillehammer, Norway. Kerrigan, who is 24 and lives in Plymouth, Mass., had just completed a practice at Cobo Hall in preparation for tomorrow's competition at the United States championships. A witness said the attacker, described as a white man about 6 feet 2 inches and 200 pounds, hit Kerrigan with a club-like instrument resembling a tire iron, a crowbar or a nightstick. Kerrigan was taken to a local hospital for X-rays then released. No fracture was found, according to the doctor who treated her, who said she suffered a cut and a bruise and swelling but was able to walk with a limp. The doctor, Dr. Steven Plomaritis, said the attack appeared calculated. "He was clearly trying to debilitate her," Plomaritis said.
