I would love to be a spokes model for Karl Lagerfeld or Balenciaga or something like that.

In spite of all the skills that I do have, to relate to the normal world I have no applicable skills. I can speak Russian, I can speak French. I know about Chanel. Especially vintage Chanel. I know what Halston is. All of these things, but they can't really be applied to a nine-to-five.

Don't bring a prop. It's almost like they were afraid nobody would know who they are.

I think it is important for young people to see other young people on television doing something positive with their life, making positive changes and growing. I don't think there is enough of that on TV. I mean, we've got 'Jersey Shore,' and I don't know what that teaches young kids.

I have always thought that being a good American is appreciating the world, not just your own country.

I love skating and sparkling and flying around the ice, and people clap for you. It's an amazing feeling.

I got into figure skating for the art of it, as well as the sport, and how much I love it. And, you know, I do everything that I want. I march to my own drummer. Sometimes people have an issue with that, and I can't control it.
