I was interested in the show concept and was watching with my young daughter who loves ice skating. After watching your total disrespect for one of the contestants then having to explain to my daughter why you and Oksana were laughing at this person was not something I was expecting from a "professional" such as yourself or Oksana. Very disappointing! My family and I will no longer be watching this show and any other performances where you are involved.
If I would some up your actions in one word, "Repulsive"!
: Rudy, as a skater you know the
: pressure it takes to perform not
: only in a show, or a competition,
: but on national tv; it made me SICK
: to watch you LAUGH during one of the
: performances. To judge any sport or
: person in this manner is not
: constructive- it is crude and
: inhuman. I am so disappointed in
: you. I have always admired you for
: your talent,personality, and
: individuality. This is not the
: DRAMA you need to create to make
: this reality show a hit. Judges
: should be honest not pompous,
: holier-than-thou b##ches! I know I
: won't be watching the show anymore
: and you have lost my respect. I
: can't imagine that anyone would want
: to be the "Star Skater" of
: this show.

: I have always admired your courage

: the way you held your head high when
: faced with difficult health issues.
: However, after watching the show
: tonight and observing the way you
: laughed at a decent person trying to
: realize their dream I am left
: feeling more than disapointed, I
: guess I thought that you were better
: than that. If it made for better TV
: it did nothing for the high
: impression that myself and others
: had of you. Please don't sell
: yourself short for the sake of
: ratings.
