Alexandra Trusova is in Danger! Aliona Kostornaia Speaks Out AGAIN, and More Russian Mess

Hi guys! This video was meant to be a Thanksgiving treat but was delayed. Since you guys tea talk so much here is part 2. Enjoy!

[@brentwest3933]

Seeing this, Eteri Tutberidze’s behavior (turning her back to Trusova) is appalling and immature. She is the adult, she needs to act like one. You got a problem watching your former student perform? Get over it. You should be happy that she’s still going. She’s not Pluchenko’s skater, yet still acknowledges her. Trusova has more class in her skating at 18 than Tutberidze’s failed skating career at 48.

[@elenamastiukova2787]

She couldn’t bear watching Trusova like that . She could watch and gloat, but she cares about Sasha so she couldn’t even watch her skating poor this time. Eteri’s got her feelings and doesn’t need anyone to tell her how to feel and what to do.

[@elenamastiukova2787]

@@kara1460 Eteri is a very modest person who doesn’t like boasting, she rarely goes to tv shows and gives interviews. I remember when Russia won all European podium, there was a show about these victories and most coaches came, but she didn’t. Gleikhengauz said she stayed at the rink and trained (instead of attending the show where she would be praised) . Similarly she didn’t receive ISU best coach reward. She’s even criticized by some Russian blogger for “boring “ instagram. What about it says narcissist? Every bit of info about her in the English speaking internet is twisted by toxic bloggers and bigots.

Something I thought everyone has the right to know about ladies individual at 2022 Olympic: volunteers and staff members said that after the award ceremony, Tutberidze and the rest of the Russian team went straight back to Olympic village, Trusova was left behind alone in tears at the rink, when she stopped crying she realized that she was left behind, all by herself, and she doesn't speak much English, so she had to use her iPad as translator to ask the staffs at the rink to help her get a cab that can take her back to the Olympic village. I don't know how could she bear this at the age of 17...

[@Ademir2809]

she doesn´t love figure skating anymore, trusova is more jumps and got nerves and fall at crucial moments, that´s why she always lose to other quads girls, and this year she started to date, so I think you know what couple do a lot, so, her time passed by, I think she will retire soon. She is a rebel, maybe she will go to America and start teaching how to jump for the young americans huge fans she got.

I believe it's also the relationship she's now officially in, as that mentally must mean a lot that someone loves her just for her. I remember she was always a workhorse not having anything else in life than skating and I think Beijing was the straw that broke the Camel's back in this sense as after years and years of trying, she did not get what she was programmed and trained to achieve. Thanks to her Boyfriend and from what I see a more loose view of skating now, I think we see her truly smile way more.

[@merry8171]

Also, they didn't show Trusova's coach on kiss and cry after the short program, and they didn't show her after the free program either, then Sasha hugged her specifically so that the coach would be in the frame, and even after that they didn't show her, so she asked loudly to take the shot like that her coach would also appear

I was not all about Trusova, but the way that they have treated her has made me anti-Eteri. How can she laugh? All of her young ladies look that way once they pass a certain age. Name a skater that isn’t some 13-15 year old that is with her that still skates well? I’m 💯 behind these skaters that have left her to prioritize not falling completely apart. I’m also over how she treats those that leave her. It’s ridiculous. I’m also tired of how some Russian people instantly run to calling girls fat when they reach the fully expected point where they fall apart…. …can they not support their own? Are they that unpatriotic? Lacking in compassion? It’s insane to me. Mind you, it is not all Russians. The entire Russian senior team and reserves that work with Eteri or recently left is injured…that’s a frustration. The bullying of these girls that I see is absolutely disgusting.

[@polka_3194]

I've watched Alyona's interview (I'm a native Russian speaker) and I just wanted to point out that the translation of what she said about Anna wasn't quite correct: "she's very intelligent, she couldn't afford [to speak her mind]" was actually something like "she's very well-mannered, she didn't take the liberty/didn't permit herself". In a way that they are both very emotional and feisty, but Anna (as I take it from the context, due to her upbringing and extreme politeness) didn't let herself make such remarks as Alyona did (for which Alyona was later called "obnoxious", as she also mentioned). Anyways, I love them both and loved your video 💕

[@ariseira_]

That's a very diplomatic response from her but I bet she realized then or perhaps awhile afterward how dangerous it could have been

[@KateKabrinsky]

This is translation from an article: Trusova performed with a short program (unsuccessfully - she plucked a double axel and was left without an element), and after her performance, commentators Alexander Grishin and Maxim Trankov forgot to turn off the microphones. “Initiate me into the politics of the party so that I understand what to say and what not to say,” Alexander asked his colleague. “Well, Trusova is over... for First Channel,” the two-time Olympic champion of Sochi replied. Trankov's incomprehensible message was confirmed in the mixed zone when Trusova went out to reporters. On a sleeve of her jacket there was no longer a patch of the First Channel: it was torn off, in the same place - only a sloppy outline in the form of white threads. There are no official versions and comments yet. According to RIA Novosti Sport sources, the figure skater has long-standing conflicts with Channel One. They have been going on since February, but the subject of disagreements has not been disclosed. So there could be any reason. There are already many theories floating around on sidelines and in fan chats, but we can't say if any of them are true. Is it possible that Sasha doesn't like a constant focus on his relationship with Mark Kondratyuk? It is unlikely: only yesterday the couple answered Alina Zagitova that they were not embarrassed by questions about their relationship. At first, there was an impression that, along with Trusova, TV people were ignoring the group of Svetlana Sokolovskaya, where she works. In “kiss and cry”, the coach was almost not shown, and Trankov did not interview the winner of the short program, Trusova’s classmate Sofya Samodelkina, after the performance. Is it possible that Sonya herself refused, upset by the fall from the triple Axel? Everything is possible, but usually even the taciturn Mikhail Kolyada did not run away from the interviewer in this case. But a few hours later, First Channel, as if nothing had happened, showed the most titled student of Sokolovskaya - Mark Kondratyuk, and Svetlana Vladimirovna herself was now taken into the frame. But Trusova herself, as before, was not caught in the stands, although she was present. A very strange and yet another optional conflict in our figure skating.

After test skates every time her picture was posted on VK’s biggest figure skating page everyone was saying she’s gained a lot of weight and made a huge mistake switching teams (basically calling her a traitor yet again and blaming her for being ungrateful). Fans even organised a campaign to stop the bullying. Trankov’s words are mistranslated, people in the comments are right. And yeah I’m surprised you didn’t mention Kosto’s birthday message to Zhenya.

Before they had more space because of international activities but now because of limited access to competitions and limited budget comparing to before it become more tough, rivalry between coaches become tooooo much toxic. Before it was toxic already, that’s why it is really hard to stan Russian skaters because of their toxic culture between coaches. I feel for Sasha, hope she can endure it.

[@cometasporelcielo]

you're the best skating commentator out there. I smash the play button on every video you make the minute I see it.

[@veronikajaklova1507]

this is what I need, more russian tea spilling 🫖

[@denalihedgehog]

18:28 the interviewer is an Olympic gold synchro swimmer (from the team that never lost an Olympic gold for like 20 years) so she literally knows what she's talking about and what it takes to make things happen

Kostornaia: "the party don't start til I walk in"

[@anniekr184]

i can't believe i'm on fs twitter daily and still managed to miss most of this... my timeline is just sunghoon discourse at this point

[@Jeremy-wp4yh]

I love a little rebellion 😅

[@vasilisashakurova743]

Anna Sherbakova had an interview recently!

[@lisastiles1408]

I hope this young skater has protectors all around her that are channeling HER innate fierceness back to her, and shouting love and praise and encouragement over and above all the other voices. Whaddaya know, she leaves TT, and takes the fast lane through puberty! She looks lovely in a fit young woman’s body, instead of that of a 12 year-old boy. She may have left an abusive environment in time to save her back and knees and avoid premature hip replacement. Not to mention the development of her mental health. If she can survive elite figure skating with her body mostly intact, I’m certain Trusova can do anything she puts her mind to. Cure cancer. Go to Mars and back. I pray she finds joy and peace, as well.

[@user-ip5be4lb3y]

Just to be clear, it is uncertain what excatly Trankov ment in commentary, because his phrase can be translated from Russian as ''Trusova is done...for the First Channel''. And by the tone he said it, I'd guess that this translation is way more accurate. P.s. Best wishes to everyone from Russia.

[@Ana-xl7fy]

First channel and all the skating community should be grateful to Sasha. How many people like me started watching figure skating after seeing Sasha's first quadruple jump??

[@rawanhazem2679]

can u speak on anna’s interview?

[@mariella2884]

It's painful every time to imagine how painful this turn of opinion must be. Evgenia is ✨Thriving✨though so 💃

[@Jess-xn3lh]

Crazy that they said that live 😵‍💫 but I will say she seems to still be a bit over scored probably because she’s an Olympic champion and favorite of fans. I hope she has an amazing comeback along with Aliona. Aliona always spilling the tea lmao gotta love her.

[@ColorTheory-ki3rc]

Sasha is still ridiculously overscored

[@anastasiaignatyeva8687]

Thats not what Trankov said. He said, « that’s it for Trusova with First Channel ».

[@user-ms5po1vk8l]

Hi! I know that it is old video, but still... Russian is my first language so I was interested to see what the commenter exchange was in Russian (around 3:40 in video). And yeah, technically translation is accurate, but meaning is lost. In Russian "всё" has a different weaning from "everything". In example we had meme "ой, всё." that was used to end a conversation and is really similar to "I can't even." if it used as millennials use it (without an explanation). Or when we want to state that something is over we say "всё кончено", and that is what was implied when Trankov sad "Ну, Трусова - всё… для Первого канала". More accurate but more harsh translation would be "Well, Trusova is done for... the first channel". Hope my English ok enough to understand :^)

[@BoNing666]

Thank you for providing accurate information ❤

[@anonimorph]

those commenters who said on your prev. video that you were wrong abt how kosto broke her arm must feel really great rn /s

[@littlebobbystrong4143]

Are they ever going to make a final decision on the Olympics team medals?

[@MartuaPoynter]

Eteri turned around AFTER the long program because she was recorder talking to Daniil after Sasha's SP, she wasn't laughing. What is true, however, is that she seemed to be criticizing her during that SP comment. That's why they filmed her again and she then turned around.

[@MartuaPoynter]

Second correction: the patch is to show respect to the recent passing away of a federation member.

[@anaespiral3265]

El señor que salta al hielo para darle a Trusova un ramo, siempre está en todas las competiciones de Rusia desde, al menos, la pandemia, que no había competiciones internacionales. Siempre le he visto siendo el que da los peluches gigantes directamente a las patinadoras o entrenadores, aunque desde arriba. Es la primera vez que le veo en el hielo. Todos le conocen ya, es inofensivo.

[@TheGorkLzrv]

05:42 This is an erroneous translation. This is more correctly translated as "Trusova is finished for Channel One"

[@ivanlavouras]

The way I only get to know this things after I see ur videos. How do u do it!??

[@musicbee8861]

There are many fs forums/communities on the internet like Reddit, Golden Skate, Twitter where you can get these updates

[@RedShoes29]

Russian fuxkery is at an all time high. It's abhorrent how the russian press collectively got behind Kamila while they can't even support Sasha. Sasha who actually landed five quads, won silver, and wasn't caught doping. Hers is a more impressive story to tell. Absolutely disappointing.

[@JaneShepardLive]

Translation is really bad tho 😅 "Liza is easy" 😂

[@jeebanjeeban87]

I just don't get why she can't go to Mishin. She can even drag her boyfriend there if she want unless Mishin don't to be part of any drama or he don't want Liza to be replaced as his no.1 lady-student?

[@smurfe00]

I don’t think Mishin will want Trusova. It seems like she is so hard to work with.

[@natalie_lucky]

Потому что переезжать в другой город и жить далеко от семьи трудно

[@user-dk8pz1xs3d]

Also the thing whith the First channel is that on news programme results of gran prix where shown and they dedicated a lot of attention to Sasha's not really succesful performance talking in details How bad she was and How many mistakes she've made. First channel have never descrived skaters's mistakes in news but they did it to Sasha and it was so obvious 🤦‍♀️

[@saralovely]

I mean, after her meltdown at the Olympics, Trusova is kinda lucky they're still letting her compete. I thought she would get sent to a gulag or something (I don't want this, just saying I was very worried for her).

[@jessicaly8903]

Omg you did not 😭

[@saralovely]

@@jessicaly8903 I'm just saying! I thought she would never be seen or heard from again. Russia does not take kindly to criticism and embarrassment on the world stage. They've poisoned people for less.

[@KellyeR1970]

I don't see Trusova getting lower scores she's getting +2 GOE for spins and even inflated scores on the jumps she lands. I've watched every single comp. There are so many girls doing way better spins only getting .70 and even triple axles only getting maybe .50 -.70..... I love watching all the talent Russia has their worst JRs are better than the US best senior ladies. The scoring is just unfair with Russian girls....Even Liza getting +2.33 GOE on some her spins that at best should only be .40 GOE.....The politics are just so insane

[@user-mj2fj2qf4c]

В этом году всё безумно, Саша впервые получила баллы завышенные, так ей всегда и везде занижали и это правда

[@zarahi7876]

Something I thought everyone has the right to know about ladies individual at 2022 Olympic: volunteers and staff members said that after the award ceremony, Tutberidze and the rest of the Russian team went straight back to Olympic village, Trusova was left behind alone in tears at the rink, when she stopped crying she realized that she was left behind, all by herself, and she doesn't speak much English, so she had to use her iPad as translator to ask the staffs at the rink to help her get a cab that can take her back to the Olympic village. I don't know how could she bear this at the age of 17...

[@rachelclark6393]

One thing I don't see many people acknowledge, is that fragile bones can fracture as well as breaking cleanly. I never broke anything in my life, and in the last year or two I cracked the bone in my little finger and the bone in the joint of my big toe. Because it was a crack, not a full break, I could move them. The toe I cracked playing football, and I didn't realize until the next day. I played the rest of the game after a short break. The next day I couldn't walk well and it swelled a bit, but I put arnica on and wrapped it and drove for several hours back to my home. This toe was broken in September. It is now December, and it functions fine but still aches. The finger was cracked in November (misaimed gesture whacked into a desk) and healed sometime in the spring, maybe March or April. I say all this to say that just because someone doesn't have a cast or crutches or hasn't gone to the emergency room does not mean they have not done damage that will affect their bodies for years to come. I would be very surprised indeed if these girls were not fracturing or cracking bones even more often than they break them. A sedentary healthy, well-fed person like me can do so easily. Girls constantly launching themselves in the air on a slippery and hard surface in the cold even more so. I think adult women are more prone to this kind of damage - when I was a child, as I said, I was pretty much invincible. I think this is one more reason why the eteri girls struggle so much once they reach physical maturity. They simply have a harder time dealing with the injuries they already have. And I think eteri is especially irresponsible knowing this, because women's sports should be careful about technique to do things safely, and she clearly doesn't care even when girls physically cannot do what she wants. Like Alina said, working limbs are much better than trophies. I ve seen people (Russians) defend eteri by saying even if the girls' bodies break they'll be set for life and famous. How useless. In 20 years they'd rather be functioning and poor.

[@justappearances]

Well with Kostornaia, Medvedeva and now Trusova their skating quality went downhill after they left Eteri, Trusova has actually been overscored at Russian GP after she left, even though her skating is not nearly on the same level as last season, she got the highest PCs in her career for this awful new short program and third highest in the free skate, the Eteri bonus is a bs and every knows it

[@mht4908]

The Russian selection team could've easily made all 3 girls in Beijing Olympic gold medalists by putting Trusova and Valieva on the team event instead of just Valieva, Trusova has never been favored to win in singles so it was very likely that even by jumping all those quads, Scherbakova and/or Valieva would place in front of her, and that's exactly what happened

[@72586jejones]

I honestly don't know why she is evening competing. She should be spending her time healing her body, learning better technique, and focusing on edge work and choreo. Russians will be Russian.

[@ravenrey7225]

So glad Sasha left Eteri, hopefully in time to save her body and mind from being completely broken by that evil woman. She's such a joy to watch on the rink, and if god wills she will keep away from Eteri and never go back there, keep on being joyful about her skating, learn how to rest a bit when needed and maybe we ll be lucky enough to watch her skate all the way into adulthood. Its always a special fit to watch a figure skater grow into their craft instead of it being terminated before age 20.

[@lenavinogradova950]

I've said that many times before. Russia doesn't deserve Trusova, she would have been better off skating for any other country, literally. Because this mistreatment is nothing new. It's been like that for years.
