RUSSIAN FIGURE SKATER - Yevgeny Plushenko

convertibletop · January 13, 2006

Fun video for those who enjoy male figure skating . . . be patient as there is an advertisement in front of the video.

Yevgeny Plushenko is an entertaining performer and is wearing a body suit at least for the upper half of his body . . . you have to watch the entire video.

Does anybody have any similar links they would like to post?

His showmanship and fearless approach to mining a character for the audience reminds me of that hottie french skater of a few years ago (I can't remember his name) but the French skater always skated for the audience and not the judges. BUT, when he appeared shirtless, it was his own moderately hairy skin and not a shaded and stuffed body shirt.

I like this clip tho, don't get me wrong.

The Frenchman I was thinking is named Phillipe Candeloro and below are just a few shots. The guy is animal magnetism personified when he skates.

He skated a number of programs shirtless, I just haven't found all of the fan sites to grab pics from, but I will be looking, purely as A public service you understand.

Oh and here are some of the russian skater from the clip
