[PureMorning]

interesting thread reminds me of when i was in primary school and every girl had a sort of "oracle" with all sorts of questions,and everyone would take turns writing in eachothers notebooks like that

so...i'll try to answer as honestly as possible:

1. I don't remember the exact year, but it must've been when he was really really young. i remember he has impressive spins even then, and the commentators used to call him the "king of spins from swizerland" or smth like that. must've been a couple of years before 2005 when he won his first gold medal in the world championships. i was probably at home

2. I call him Stephane when i write about him here or when i talk to my bf. Lambiel when i talk to my mother, have no idea why. She likes him too.

3. I don't know if his smile is a physical feature but i love it. Otherwise, must be his hands and the way he uses them when he skates. His eyes and hair come close. Well his hair as it was this season at least.

4. I'm not a big expert when it comes to technicalities, so i'm gonna make this easy for myself spins...all of them. and jumps, he's really elegant when jumping too, given that he won't stumble or fall. He's cute even when he does that.

5. This was a hard one. I assume it would be too cruel to request all of them...or at least 5. I'll go with Wilhelm Tell because i think it suits him really well. He's a swiss hero after all, isn't he?

6. I thought about that before his birthday but couldn't do anything decent in time. I think it would be nice to give him something personal, like a nice photo album with photos from his competitions/shows so he can see for himself just how gracious and beautiful he is. And photos with him and his fans, and messages. Something like a scrap book that he can look into whenever he feels sad That way he can remember how many people love and appreciate him.

7. Johnny...because i love Johnny too...and those two are always fun together. Case in point, the Moscow kings on ice press conference.

8. So much, too much to write here or think about it now. But mostly, "thank for being yourself, Stephane Lambiel! Such a priceless addition to mankind. you make our lives a little bit brighter"

9. Do you mean ice shows? I think he's in a lot already. I would like to see Art on Ice for myself though. Or whatever show in Stockholm, hope they'll do it again next year.

10. Tu es magnifique(formidables)! Hope i got it right....learning french is still a plan waiting to be fulfilled

6. If you could give him a present for his birthday, what kind of present would you give?

Something personal,like a poem or a short story relating to him

7. If you were one of Stéphane's men competitors, who would you like to be?

Samuel Contesti !

8. If you have the chance to talk to him for 10 mins, what would you say to him?

I would thank him for all the good moments,the great shows and for making a lot of people proud of his talent. I would also like to know more about his music taste

9. Which gala show would you like to see him in?

Well... I only know a few shows and they're all featuring him as the main skater so... Cant really answer

10. Finally, what is your message for Stéphane?

short and simple.. MERCI !!

Stephané or "my ladybug"'s Turkish version

3. Which physical feature of Stéphane do you like best?
His unique smile. And maybe it's weird but his stubble.

"Un giorno per noi" I guess.

6. If you could give him a present for his birthday, what kind of present would you give?

For example in front of Taj Mahal, a group of people sing a song about him. In the desert, in front of the Eiffel Tower etc.Then I'd combine them and make a movie and then give him!

[miryam]

1. When (and where) did you first see Stéphane? On the Spanish tv in the EC in Tallinn 2010. What caught my attention was that he looked like my daughter’s boyfriend. Since then I’ve spent hours on the internet looking for even the tiniest morsels of information on Stéphane.

2. What do you usually call Stéphane? (for example, do you call him Stéphane, Stéph, etc) Stéphane or Lambiel.

3. Which physical feature of Stéphane do you like best? He has the most interesting eyes and I love his crooked smile.

4. Which element of his program do you like most? Spread eagles, spirals and Russian splits. They’re breathtaking. His ability to match movement to music.

5. If Stéphane skates of one of his programs for your birthday, which program would you request? NMQP or improvisation.

6. If you could give him a present for his birthday, what kind of present would you give? If money were no object, I’d give him a week’s holiday in his chosen destination with his chosen people, just to relax and spend some time with his nearest and dearest. Otherwise I’d bake him a cake and gave him a huge hug.

7. If you were one of Stéphane's men competitors, who would you like to be? None of them, but if you asked who I like best, it’s Johnny.

8. If you have the chance to talk to him for 10 mins, what would you say to him? I’d like to know his opinions and ideas about things wholly unrelated to skating.

10. If you could choose a song for his new program, what would it be? Adagio from the Oboe Concerto in D minor by Benedetto Marcello (many times attributed to his brother Antonio). It’s so beautiful it makes me cry and I know Stéphane could really match his skating to the beauty of the music.
