Harding and Kerrigan meet again
A real-life soap opera turned real opera. This could get interesting.
The notorious ice-skating feud between Tonya Harding and Nancy Kerrigan came to life on the stage for the first time at the world premiere of “Tonya and Nancy: The Rock Opera” in Portland, Oregon.
The rock opera tells the story of Harding’s ex-husband, Jeff Gilooly, and his friends conspiring to keep Kerrigan from competing in the Olymics through songs such as “Whip Her Butt” and “Gilooly Colluded.”
Ok, so it may not have as complicated of a plot as a Mozart opera, but it’s equally as dramatic.
Harding actually attended the premiere and supposedly laughed the entire time. If she finds it funny, I bet the rest of us would find it even funnier.
