Overview
- Tomàs-Llorenç Guarino Sabaté said he submitted the track through the ISU ClicknClear system in August but learned last week that clearance was denied.
- The short program features Juan Alcaraz’s "Papaya (Vaya Papayas)," which interpolates Minion voices tied to Universal’s Despicable Me franchise.
- After his post drew widespread attention, Universal and Illumination granted a one-time permission for the Olympic performance.
- He noted that a few licensing details for other pieces in his program still need to be finalized even as the Minions routine returns.
- The men’s short program in Milan begins 10 February, ending the need for his Bee Gees backup for that segment.
