Many people will skate to the Tango de Roxanne from Moulin Rouge and just go full-on crazy pants when that last piece comes on. Hair flying around, wild eyes.

(comparing other skaters' performances of that music to Japan's Rinka Watanabe's "subtle and chic skating.")

It's really just me, and my hairspray, and prayer that are going to get me out of this one alive.

I love soccer. Because it's like a whole bunch of hot dudes, and they all do weird shit with their hair.

Nikolaj almost skates like he's trying to swim without getting his hair wet.

Just daydreamed for a solid ten minutes about what my hairstyle would be if I ever guest hosted Jeopardy. 100% it’d be blue...maybe with calculators and Rubik’s Cubes pinned in...we’ll revisit this later.

That hilarious thing when your iPhoto does facial recognition for your "top people" & all 4 are you, just in different hair and makeup.

I have full milkmaid braid that just exists on my head...

New low: Just found a listerine strip in my weave as I was de-weaving. Enjoy.

We are terrified of the sun. We are so white and we work indoors. I go big with my hair which creates a natural shield. I bought all of my weaves yesterday.

A poodle I think really determines a lot of my hair looks in my life, so I have to go with a poodle as well.

The ACM Awards is so major. The voices, the hair, the accents...I feel like, men in tight pants, ladies in major hairspray...my kinda show.

We constantly travel with an entire pony-sized bag full of weave because I need it, to hold stuff up. I need it. I hold all my secrets in my weave. And I thought that the pony with the shortest tail could probably use a little extraaaa from us because it...it helps!

I realized that these people will mean absolutely nothing to me. Screw it. I am doing it myself. I am just going to be so good that there is no feasible way they can leave me off of those teams.

I feel like we should get people off of booty like they were in 2014.

[Tara Lipinski: Off of booty and...]

Simultaneously: [Tara:...onto skating]  ...onto weave.

I said "weave" and you said "skating." I feel like that's a mixed signal, but both are good, both are good.

[Tara: Both are good.]

Both are valued.

There were definitely positives to this performance. I like what he did with his hair...it gave a more mature feeling to that program.
