Caught some of her E! Revealed! show. There was some mention of her
being a figure skater as well as a pic of her at a competition.


Can anyone confirm or deny this? OUR NICOLE?


Who knew? What if she had taken all of that energy being a party girl
and Paris Hilton's lackey and put it into skating? She'd be a cross
between Debi Thomas and Tonya Harding! She'd have been great!
Imagine her and Paris Hilton sitting in Kiss-n-Cry drinking Cristal
and smoking cigarettes!

I saw an interview with her on some talk show. When she was asked about having
to "work hard" for her TV series she just laughed and said something like "I'm
not a stranger to hard work. I was a competitive figure skater for years and
was very driven and focused and worked very hard at that." I was surprised at
how poised and compassionate and kind (and intelligent) she presented herself
during the interview, though I've never seen her show. I think some of what is
shown on TV is for the sake of entertainment.

It sounded like she took the sport as far as she could and didn't have much of
a life outside of figure skating up until she graduated from high school.
Perhaps her party attitude now is a bit of a backlash to her focus and
sacrifice back then. We've seen similar stuff from other, more famous, figure
skaters.

I don't think people realize how many young people are involved in figure
skating at lower levels, who work hard and are driven and make skating their
life. There's only a tiny percentage of them you see on TV .
