During "SkaterGate" at the Olympics, they always show the same picture of the figure skating pair. The woman's hair is pulled back so tight it looks like her scalp might detach, and she's wearing what is essentially a cheerleading outfit as she skates over a giant freaking heat sink. So she always appears kinda cute, but not really cute.
Then they showed a picture of her as she recieved her gold medal, off the ice, with her hair down. She's hot.
I really hope the guy's gay -- at least then I can pretend she's available.
Update: Just so I'm not misunderstood, I'm down with the whole cheerleader outfit thing. I was trying to say that she always looks like she's freezing her ass off in that photo they show of her on-ice. For some reason, women don't look as attractive when they look like they're about to start shivering uncontrollably.
