Alena Kostornaya told how she relates to the title of the most extraordinary figure skater in Russia and compared herself with Olga Buzova.
“I like it, because in the past my goal was really to be different from everyone else. And I’m getting there. Of course, sometimes the stories around me are inflated. I’m a public person, so all my actions, including mistakes, receive great publicity.” And sometimes, if you look, I don’t do anything special. It’s like the scandals around Olga Buzova: well, a person argued with someone, what’s the difference? But she’s famous, so everyone’s talking,” she said. in an interview with Lenta.
She also noted that she loves being the first and she is thrilled that they repeat after her: at first it was glitter on her face during performances, then acrobatic elements.
