Five-time world champion Michelle Kwan will perform in the U.S. for the first time in four years when she skates in Kim Yu-Na's "2010 All That Skate LA," to be held in Los Angeles on October 2-3.
Kwan has skated in Kim's shows in South Korea, but has not performed domestically since she attempted to come back for the 2006 Olympics.
Now 30, the two-time Olympic medalist has been busy off the ice, graduating from the University of Denver in 2009, and currently enrolled at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University.
Kwan performed in South Korea at the end of July, skating to "No One" by Alicia Keys and "Primitive" by Annie Lennox, in addition to a duet with Kim to "Hero" by Mariah Carey.
"All That Skate LA" boasts an impressive cast, including reigning Olympic champions Kim Yu-Na, ice dancers Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir, and pair team Shen Xue and Zhao Hongbo.
In addition to Kwan, other Americans scheduled to perform include Olympic silver medalists Tanith Belbin and Ben Agosto, three-time U.S. champion Johnny Weir, and U.S. bronze medalist Ashley Wagner.
International stars Stephane Lambiel, Brian Joubert, and two-time world champions Aliona Savchenko and Robin Szolkowy round out the star-studded cast.
