‘Means the world to us’: Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir honoured with Canada’s Walk of Fame Hometown Stars

August 7, 2019

Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir are just 30 and 31 years old, respectively, and they’re at the top of their careers. And now they have Hometown Stars courtesy of Canada’s Walk of Fame.The pair will be honoured with special ceremonies in their respective hometowns of London, Ont. and Ilderton, Ont. on Aug. 7. 

The four-time world champions and five-time Olympic medallists both toldHELLO! Canada they find the whole thing a bit surreal.

“It’s kind of strange because we’ve always said we’re not saving lives, we’re just ice dancing,” Tessa said. “And what we do is meaningful to us and we love representing our country, but to be recognized on that stage is really quite something.”

Scott said he hadn’t even contemplated the possibility of being honoured in such a way.

“Tessa and I have been working together at our goals for over 20 years, so to see them culminate the way they did last February at PyeongChang was amazing, but these little things, you don’t really ever think about,” he said, pointing out that they are both still very young.

Dave P. Clark: Tessa Virtue is more than Olympic gold. Such a beautiful lady. Her & Scott Moir are true gold star recipients & ambassadors for Canada like Chris Hatfield. Impressed at what a good musician Chris is..he and our Emm knocked it out of the park. Mike Bradley set up a first class show and made Sarnia proud.

A reminder; a concept. BOTH Tessa and Scott are being honoured today. You can disagree or dislike what someone believes or says but don’t dismiss their hard-work because of it. They are both being honoured for what they’ve achieved as a TEAM. None of them are up on that stage because they got there alone. They got there because of hard work and dedication as a team.
