I am in a school and all of this is just a little too close to home. This man, and everything about him, makes my skin literally crawl. I am so put out by the insanity that I am better off not commenting with the horrid thoughts that are in my brain. I seriously can't even...

I'm not sure where our Olympics discussion was, but I know we talked about some figure skating/ice dancing peeps using CP songs. A pair of ice dancers (way to go Shib Sibs!) that won bronze discussed why they used CP's music. Olympics 2018: Ice dancers Maia and Alex Shibutani share their Must List and Coldplay connectionBREANNE L. HELDMAN February 18, 2018 AT 07:07 PM EST
Having already picked up a bronze medal in the team competition earlier in the 2018 Olympics, Maia and Alex Shibutani take the ice Monday (Sunday night in the U.S.) for their short dance and try to make their way back onto the podium in the Ice Dancing competition. But before they do, we quizzed the brother-sister duo — affectionately known as the Shib Sibs — about some of their pop culture preferences, especially those (ahem, Coldplay!) which have made their way into their routines… ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: What made you choose Coldplay for your long program?
ALEX SHIBUTANI, 26: We had a breakthrough season in 2015-16… [Since] our experience at the Olympic Games in Sochi [in 2014], we matured a lot and made some decisions about how we wanted to continue our career from a creative standpoint and the types of music and the types of programs that we wanted to do, and we made a decision that we wanted to be more personal. Earlier in our career, we were listening to a lot of advice and following the lead of our coaches, people who were in an advisory capacity for us and guiding our career at that point because we were too young with minimal life experience and minimal skating experience, and so we were sort of fulfilling the vision of other people. After Sochi, we decided that we wanted to do what we wanted to do and we were ready to take on that challenge. Wanting to get back on a World podium [they’d won bronze at the World Championships in the 2010-2011 season, but hadn’t medaled since] in preparation for the 2018 Games, we chose to skate to “Fix You” by Coldplay, and it was the first time that we told a more personal story on the ice. Maia and I are very different to begin with from the rest of the ice dance field because we are brother and sister… so, by telling our personal story, a story of us trying to fix ourselves following some growing pains after our initial success in 2011, we had this tremendous year where we sort of relaunched our career in a lot of ways.… This year, with it being the Olympics, you always want to skate to something that is of personal significance to you, and realizing that the Olympic Games draws so many eyes to the sport, that’s also something we wanted to keep in mind, and with Coldplay being such a well-known popular band — and they’re popular for a reason. Their music sort of speaks to a lot of key motifs and themes about dreams and love and freedom and flying… and so we chose to skate to “Paradise,” because we want PyeongChang to be our “Paradise.” MAIA SHIBUTANI, 23: We do realize it’s unique. When a lot of people think about figure skating, I don’t necessarily think Coldplay is what they expect to hear while they’re watching the sport during the Olympics, but for us, we’re following what we want to show on the ice creatively, and that process, like Alex said, has brought us to wanting our “Paradise” to be in PyeongChang. And we’ve been on such a journey personally, but really the messaging of the song — of following in your dreams and believing in yourself no matter what — that’s really resonated with us. Have you heard from Chris Martin or anyone from Coldplay?
MAIA: Yeah, we actually had the chance to meet them two times. Once, in 2016, right after we skated to “Fix You” and then we also met them again at the iHeart Radio Festival last September. link
