Athletistic/Figure skating. USSR Honored Coach Tatiana Tarasova shared her opinion regarding Russian figure skater Kamila Valieva’s decision to star in a film.

Previously, the 17-year-old athlete announced that she was taking part in castings for film and television projects.

“I can only applaud such efforts on the part of our athletes. They are young and choose their path in the profession by trying themselves in various fields. Why not? As for possible roles for Camila, I am not a director, so it is difficult to say in which pictures she could show herself. But she is a very talented girl and she will be able to achieve a lot if she seriously studies acting,” Tarasova noted in an interview with RIA Novosti.

Earlier this year, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) suspended Valieva for four years for violating anti-doping rules and annulled her results effective December 25, 2021.
