Whay a delightful and unaffected young woman! Thanks again to you, and Polish TV, for bringing us this little treasure.

@Pearlaceous I read once interview with Lopatkina and she said that she also isn't hungry whole day and sometimes she eats only grapefruits. I wonder if their bodies are really used to not eating whole day or they just persuade it to themselves.

Thank you for uploading! It was really interesting to watch^^

Katia is delight. Pure Kirov style which is the best compliment i can make. So happy for her promotion last year. It should happen so much earlier.

[@AmyKauai]

thank you!

I know, right? here in Brazil the minimum salary is 304 dollars, earned monthly. it's definitely not enough, let alone 200...

that was good,a very dedicated dancer i hope to be like her one day(except more food:D) she only toke off one or two days when she strained a tendon in her foot when that happened to me i had to take a whole week off and the next three days no pointe!

A sign of a good dancer is versatility. My favorite dancer Nikolai Tsiskaridze said that when you have modern dance training you will never be a prince but with classical training you can dance anything. He was right. Katia and he both are classically trained (he is now a rector of her alma mater Vaganova ) and here together in a very modern dance, Forsythe's in the Middle kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6u4f4Clobhpeq8

its really not necessary eat that way to be thin, she was saying she didn't have enough time to lounge around feeling really full and if your only going to eat one thing fruits are a good choice.

[@looovecats]

It was filmed 10 years ago, now it could be different, also money exchange rate is changing.

[@PinkSodaPopGirl]

remember, $200 has different value in USA than in Russia. But still, it's quite a small amount!

[@Pearlaceous]

At that time she was eating baby food, fruit and juice to keep her weight so low. :-( Poor Katia. I really hope any young dancers watching this do not think it a healthy way to eat.

[@splahx]

omg, 200 dollars. TWO. HUNDRED. DOLLARS.

[@Dimixov]

Perhaps, now she earns $ 20,000.

[@PoeteGirl]
