Quad God Ilia Malinin Talks Skating, Setbacks, and Taylor Swift Controversy
World champion figure skater Ilia Malinin was recently interviewed on The Today Show by Craig Melvin. Malinin, known as the "Quad God" for his exceptional skating skills, shared his interests in drawing, storytelling, video games, and music, except for pop icon Taylor Swift. Despite his love for various genres, Malinin made it clear that he is not a fan of Swift's music. Unfortunately, Malinin experienced a setback in his career when he narrowly missed winning his first individual gold medal and ended up in eighth place at a competition. Despite the disappointment, Malinin displayed sportsmanship and faced the media with grace. However, his comments about Taylor Swift did not go unnoticed by her fans, who playfully teased him for his aversion to her music. Malinin may need to reconsider his stance on Swift's music if he wants to incorporate it into his future skating routines.
