Who Are Team USA's 'Blade Angels' Figure Skaters Going for Olympic Gold?
The 'Blade Angels' combine diverse personal journeys and bold styles, with Amber Glenn winning Olympic gold and Alysa Liu securing a world title after retiring.
- On Tuesday, three U.S. women — Alysa Liu, Amber Glenn and Isabeau Levito — dubbed the 'Blade Angels,' compete in the women's individual event at the Milan-Cortina Winter Games.
- Alysa Liu's decision to return came two years ago, leading to a world title, while Amber Glenn overcame depression and ADHD to become a U.S. champion.
- Distinct styles set the trio apart, as Liu’s punk look contrasts Levito’s ‘ice princess’ wit and Glenn’s outspoken LGBTQ+ activism, making them prominent figures at Milan-Cortina.
- Their performances could change perceptions, and they are using their platforms to push LGBTQ+ visibility and mental-health awareness, positioning Team USA as new role models for American girls.
- Their deliberate branding choice shows that `Blade Angels`, an homage to `Charlie’s Angels`, may broaden the figure-skating fan base.
