Gabrielle & Guillaume were invited to perform a special version of their competitive short dance on the small ice surface of the Torvill & Dean celebrity competition show "Dancing on Ice". There was no wardrobe malfunction, thankfully.

The GBR ice dance team of Coombs & Buckland had performed on the show before heading to the Olympics and warned the French about the small ice surface

Re: Papadakis & Cizeron in "Dancing on Ice"
I expect she will be crazy-glued into that dress from now on!
Love this team, and their skating, but I have never felt this dance had an real solid latin movement in the body like some of the other teams (in particular V/M). It's too sterile and controlled. Agreed, they made it a little more "caliente" at the Olympics, but not with the skating....

I'm actually looking ahead to next season and hoping that they will explore something quite different for their free dance. Their last three have seemed quite similar to me.

Agreed. They don't seem to be comfortable pushing the boundaries unless the requirements for the short dance force them to. A true artist doesn't paint the same picture over and over again.
It's interesting because when you see Guillaume in off-ice dance sessions, he is quite the mover! For example, this video of a sequence with Tessa Virtue. He's still not as natural as Tessa or the instructor, but not bad at all:

By comparison, this sequence with Gabriella seems much less believable, and without nearly as much charisma. Just sayin'

Absolutely no disrespect to Scott.....but Tessa & Guillaume together would be magical!
