With sultry routines that’ve long threatened to melt the ice, people can’t help but egg on figure skaters Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir to requite their apparent love.
Following their Winter Olympics gold medal win, Virtue and Moir sat down with CBC to watch a montage of their 20-year career together on the ice.
The pair shed tears as grabs of them talking about how proud they were of one another and images — so many images — of them embracing each other played out on screen.
C’mon and just date each other already, you guys.
It’s not just us either — Adam Rippon and Leslie Jones thought so too. When asked about what’s the deal with their relationship by TODAY’s Hoda Kotb, Virtue gave a rather diplomatic answer to the prodding. Read more…

It was a match made in Winter Olympics heaven.
Figure skating champion of our hearts Adam Rippon teamed up with Saturday Night Live star Leslie Jones for the ultimate Olympic commentary.

The two personalities teamed up on Monday to hilariously commentate on Canadian figure skaters Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir’s short dance. The pair not only won gold for their performance, but also dazzled Rippon and Jones.

Do not piss off Team USA’s men’s curling team — something Kirstie Alley is learning the hard way.
The actress tweeted an off-hand thought while watching the Winter Olympics on Monday, calling the sport of curling “boring.”

Im not trying to be mean but…… Curling is boring

Needless to say, the U.S. men’s curling team thought, yeah, it was mean. So, they fired back.
We’re not trying to be mean either but your movies weren’t exactly riveting theater Kirstie#justsaying #curling #rockit #TeamUSA https://t.co/8q9KtxvCPe

In the winter of 2014, the world gathered for an international competition that would push each nation’s best minds to the limit.
No, it wasn’t the Olympics in Sochi — it was Twitter’s Selfie Olympics, and they’re back just in time to align with 2018’s Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang.
Twitter user @Bradleysanborn brought back the #selfieolympics hashtag with his post of bizarre mirror selfies, featuring him biking in the shower and cooking penis shaped pancakes in his bathroom.

Adam Rippon may be done skating at this year’s Winter Olympics, but thankfully that doesn’t mean we’ve seen the last of him.
In addition to winning a bronze medal in the team skating event, the 28-year-old figure skater has made headlines both as one of two openly gay U.S. male athletes competing in Pyeongchang and for speaking up to Vice President Mike Pence in support of LGBTQ rights.
Oh, also for his sass — an element of his personality that will likely be on full display as he spends the rest of the Olympics working as an NBC correspondent.
