Now There's A Revealing Thought

Sequins?
Chances are, if you posed that one-word question to Shae-Lynn Bourne today, she knew exactly what you meant. And would immediately burst into that infectious laughter we know and love so much.
Kind of the way the former world ice dance champion did yesterday, when an enterprising Saskatoon Star-Phoenix reporter asked Bourne "what's the most fun you've had while wearing sequins?"
"I did a photo shoot with just sequins once," she responded.
"Just sequins," asked the clearly astonished reporter.
(it's amazing what one learns by asking just the right question).
"Just sequins," said Bourne. "It was for a skating magazine. The sequins were used later for a skating costume. I did the photo shoot and they ended up using that photo in the magazine. I wasn't wearing anything."
Oooookay.
Naturally, when your faithful blogger spotted Bourne this morning — we've known each other for years, by the way — he just had to ask. And apparently, I wasn't the first.
"I've been getting that all morning" said a laughing Bourne, who is here in Saskatoon at these 2009 BMO Canadian figure skating championship as a coach for senior ice dancers Kaitlyn Weaver and Andrew Poje.
And that, as the old saying goes, is indeed the naked truth.
