Having a day? We’ve got the antidote to turn that negative energy right around.
Gay French skaters Guillaume Cizeron and his partner Gabriella Papadakis set a world record in ice dance, and then won gold.
In a photo posted to Instagram Tuesday, Cizeron with his gold medal, and a nod to acknowledge gratitude, he writes “Woke up and it was still on my bedside table…it wasn’t a dream!!”

Out Sports: Cizeron publicly came out as gay in 2020 with an Instagram post celebrating his boyfriend. In a subsequent interview, Cizeron expressed surprise at how well the picture was received, considering he didn’t hide his sexuality.
“It was quite funny how people reacted to this photo,” he told the French LGBTQ magazine Tetu. “I would not consider myself in the closet before posting this [photo], so I don’t really consider it coming out.”
But as we know, there’s a difference between not masking your sexuality and officially coming out. Cizeron is now one of the most decorated publicly out figure skaters in the world.
That’s not a dream, either.
