In a bright red jacket, Plushenko began his routine gently swaying to the tune of "Sex Bomb" by Tom Jones, which will probably strike some as a very odd choice for a skating routine. But from the beginning, the audience could already sense his comedic genius!

And then came and even bigger surprise "“ when the vest was also shed, revealing an unnaturally muscular physique underneath "“ courtesy of a local costume store!
