Beccari/Guarise - Golden Hour
I used to be a fan, but I'm Team Nina all the way after the style Loena and Jorik have picked.Nah. Not my cuppa. Do better Loena. There are kids in the audience.
I was expecting some "Hammer Time" tbhPap/Ciz -- "Costumes needed a little work."
They asked her to change her program because the singer’s Israeli?I read on Twitter that various fans asked Loena on social media to change her previous gala programme because of the singer. I don’t know if this is the reason she changed it.
But I'd like to see her in something new too.
Yes.They asked her to change her program because the singer’s Israeli?
The ISU posted a short reel on Instagram about this program - very interesting comments, including some back and forth between Steffan and Kaitlyn Weaver.JVRStef. Moana. With proper costuming. Ben looks awesome.
So I’ve heard. I guess I’m fossilized enough not to read too much into an appropriation if it’s via a Disney screenplay written by committee.The ISU posted a short reel on Instagram about this program - very interesting comments, including some back and forth between Steffan and Kaitlyn Weaver.
Also I have to say if one doesn't know the Disney movie, it's hard to even get what Benjamins costume is even theoretically about. I first saw the exhibition at Nebelhorn, I don't know the movie, have only heard about Moana vaguely, didn't realize the exhibition is from that movie and without context his costume on first sight just looks like a really weird western idea of "exotic" from 1981. I immediately thought I wouldn't take this exhibition internationally. Plus I'm not sure it copying something from a Disney movie really makes it betterMoana is a Disney movie but it still represents a real culture and its spiritual beliefs and history. There are thoughtful comments on that instagram post by a Polynesian describing her upset at seeing a white European wearing her ancestor's skin as a costume. I think she makes a good case.
