Ashley Wagner Is Back With A New Look, New Samba Program For The New Skating Season!
After going platinum blonde last season, US figure skater Ashley Wagner is coming back with a new look, and a new fierce program.
Last month, Wagner posted a short video sneak peek of her new short program to "Hip Hip Chin Chin" by Club des Belugas, choreographed by Shae-Lynn Bourne.
"A little sneak peek at what I've been up to this week with Shae," wrote Wagner on Instagram. "It needs a lot of work but I'm obsessed. The woman is a goddess."
Wagner is coming into the upcoming figure skating season winning her third US national title, but a disappointing finish at the World championships.
"I know in my gut that I am capable of becoming a world champion," said the 24-year-old to Rolling Stone.
"I know in my gut that I am capable of being somebody that people remember, and I also know that right now I'm not that person. I'm sure nobody expects much of me beyond what I've done this year, but I know I can be world champion and it starts with me working my butt off this summer so that I can go into the next season and make everybody shut up."
And what's one thing she's doing to help make that happen? Another dramatic hair transformation.
Wagner is assigned to Skate Canada and the NHK Trophy for this Grand Prix season. She will make her season debut at the 2015 Japan Open alongside Olympic medalists Patrick Chan and Mao Asada, along with Olympic champion Adelina Sotnikova.
