I'm deeply inspired by Gracie's strength.

I was made fun of in school for being fat especially my legs they called me thunder thighs and bubble butt and I hated my legs. I appreciate this video because I want to love my legs! They have supported me my whole life and continue to do so. Thank you, I am going to love them more

Love this video!!! Gracie, thanks for being so honest and open. I also have the same concerns so it’s great that you are talking about it and normalizing these “feelings” 😀

Also, LOL, at the 2014 and 2016 Skate America's she showed so much CLASS with the way that she interacted with the audience with selfies, etc. At the end of 2014 S.A. her people had to very politely, PHYSICALLY escort her off the ice because she was so caught up in autographs and selfies for the little ones! At the big competitions, she looks right at the security guy, says hi, and gives him a fistbump.

This video needs to be watched by more women. My sister has been trying to achieve a thigh-gap her entire life, to no avail. It sucks that women want to have toothpick legs, DESPITE the fact that men don’t find stick legs attractive AT ALL. Women shouldn’t want to have the body of a 14 year old boy. Strong legs are beautiful.

Ahh young insecurities! Only a teenager would have perfect legs and be embarrassed. Thk god we grow up! (Lumps and bumps =solid muscle)

I love the PHILOSOPHY of Lady Skaters. Just like when Sasha Cohen talked about having many little problems with her Freeskates! Her and Gracie both have the wisdom of a 50-year-old. I LOVE this lady, and I really hope she can put it all back together!! :-)

Oh! You are kidding! We'd always remark that you had such lyrical footwork and fabulous extensions. Just what else do you need? You were part of the ice and not just scraping over the surface. It sounds to me that the words "fat" and "heavy" were used by the competitors who never made the podium. Keep pressing on!

Her legs are mind blowing. How could anyone including her not love her legs? They are gorgeous.

Hummmmmm, wonder where those muscular legs came from????? Maybe skating!!!! At least this wasn't filmed in front of the Rockefeller Center Gold sculpture. Or is it Pewter? Maybe like Gold coated Pewter. They just love celebrating people's triumphs and tragedies, sometimes making them.
