Best tribute to her Mom. Best performance of a true athlete whose heart was grieving.

Eh, Brett Favre threw 5 touchdowns the day after his dad died. It was emotional because you could feel the lust even from a TV screen. Several athletes have had to preform while grieving a loss, they are all equal in my eyes.

I remember this well. I was so glad she decided to compete. I think her winning that medal was a great honour to her mother!

She gave the special present to her mother. She is special cause she overcomes from that sad and did her best.

I didn't watch much from 2010 Olympic but the one thing I remember watching was Joannie, and I just cried now to see how strong she was! I can't think her mom could be more pround, she is an inspiration

It's admirable and courageous of what Joannie went through. You really need some kind of solid mental fortitude to have to have to step up to the challenge at hand despite such tragic circumstance. By the way, since we're already at it with Olympic medalists, how bout make an Olympic video of Mao Asada as well. If anything, it is Mao Asada that deserves to be featured for doing some memorable performances for both in Vancouver and in Sochi.

Given the first and second winners are two of the greatest of all time bronze was pretty great. The field was pretty much Yuna and Mao and the rest and she was first amongst the rest.

Much admiration and respect for her!

I remember watching this. I didn't know her mama passed away but i was tearing up at the end cause it was so emotional. Now it makes all sense. She's amazing...

Tuff Bud there you are!

these olympian’s dream of competing at the olympics & being able to share the experience with the ones they love, the fact that she was on home soil & lost arguably the most important person there for her is absolutely gut wrenching.

She is a true athlete and competitor.

You make your Mom proud! Keep going!

I cried during this video bc she competed so well while grieving. it's so sad to have somebody passing away, especially if it's somebody as close as a mother. (at least I'm close with my mother). great respect to her and thoughts to her mother

I remember this vividly. Still one of my favorite Winter Games moments ever.

Her mom performed her last duty on Earth.....her spirit kept her going....and the ascended when she got her medal

So brave of her! It's interesting to note that back in 2006, Joannie's soon-to-be stepdad passed away (either a few weeks or a few months) before he and Joannie's mother Therese were supposed to get married. Joannie chose her long program music for her 2006 Olympic debut because her mother would listen to that music selection as solace following her fiance's death.

Stephanie M You may want to double check your information because Thérèse’s fiancé Pierre was killed in 1975 and would never have been Joannie’s step-father as she wasn’t even born until 1986. Her parents were still married at the time of Thérèse’s death. You are, however, somewhat correct about her 2006 LP music (“Hymne à l’Amour”). Her choreographer actually initially chose it and Joannie had her mother listen to it to get her opinion and her mother burst in to tears. I just wanted to clear that up! 😊 There is an article in MacClean’s magazine with all of this information in it.

The most courageous skate ever.

Always watch this when my world seems to be collapsing and I watch her overcome her grief and still get on with life..now in 2020..we need inspiration like this.

Story of the hometown girl doing well coming through delivering and seizing the moment. Lovely skater performing from the heart.

Had me weeping for dear life watching this 😢😢😢😢 A Lovely Tribute here.Well done Joannie Rochette and Sorry for your loss😢

This was perhaps the most memorable moment of the 2010 Olympics !

I know how Joannie feels I lost my Mom in January of this year and I miss her everyday

It is a very emotional sharing. Thank you, Joannie Rochette.

11 years later, still makes me cry.

Very touching story. And she seriously had absolutely beautiful costume.

I remember her. She ended up carrying the flag for Canada at the closing ceremony

Respect, admiration, but most of all ... love. Her mother was there, she was watching. I'm glad Joannie knows this, too. What an athlete! What a skater! What a woman!

It's so special to watch this again. I did see it when it happened and remember quite well...an awesome/special moment indeed!!

I was fortunatate to meet her in Toronto at the Exhibition places when she was invited to skate there. She was so nice so pretty took a picture with me and my mom. I still have the pictures printed in an album. I was 13 then. Love her

This performance is inspiring once and for all, it is such a beautiful skate especially when you lost your mother during Vancouver Olympics, thank you for the most inspiring Performances of the brave.

I betcha it was an emotional Olympics for Joannie Rochette. Losing her mom before the figure skating competition. I remember that '10 Olympics in Vancouver. She took home a Bronze medal. She was happy to get a medal. A bronze medal was better than no medal. I felt Joannie's pain for that. Her mom would have been proud to take home a medal. It wasn't just for Joannie, but it was for her. She did it for her late mother.

I love this woman. She us so graceful in her skating and so spiritual and strong.

I’m sure that even though her mother is in the other world already, her mother is still proud of her. Despite the circumstances she experienced, she still won the bronze medal and she really deserves to win.

A very beautiful tribute to her Mom may it be the very best

I've skated with her on 2 occaisons and a show and she's really nice!

This is amazing....And so sad her mom passed away... and a lot of pressure thinking and knowing her mom passed away. But this was an amazing routine.

Never so proud of a bronze. Such strength and resilience

POWERFUL and touching!!

So proud of you Joannie Rochette.

Who else cried?

I remember how this made me cry, OMG

Joannie's incredible courage and talent will never be forgotten, it will continue to inspire people to reach higher, to better themselves, and to honour their fellow human beings. If you disliked this video come say it to my face. Me and @Swagmasta Suga gonna "talk" to ya a little bit.

I'm crying... ❤

What a strong mind !!

Ich hatte das im TV gesehen, bei uns im deutschen Fernsehen hatte das Katarina Witt kommentiert. Es war sehr traurig zu sehen, dass sie das kurz vor dem Kurzprogramm erleben musste. Sie ist sehr schön und fleißig, freue mich für sie, dass sie eine Medaille gewonnen hat. Schade, dass ihre Mutter, das nicht miterlebt hat.

Unreal. Absolutely amazing. God bless.

Oh wow what an amazing lady very courageous. ❤️

She seems to be very energetic skater to me.....such a powerful jump and spin

How difficult moments of her!! great athlete!!

I figure skate and this is very touchy me because my moms helps me with everything I do for my skating. So... if my mother died the day before I would get on the ice for the Olympics, I would be bulging my eyes out as I got on to the ice... I would be saying a prayer that would keep me from getting injured and for my mum to be watching and cheering me on from heaven. I probably wouldn’t want to skate but I kn w that it would be for my own good and this would be me and my mums dream FINALY comming true. Admit it.. sometimes you wish your mom would just go away. But then when she died you wished that you would have never wished that she would just go away. Always love your mother because you know that sooner or later she will be gone.

Your mum will look down at u and say I live you no matter what and every time you eat she will be there you rave woman ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Beautiful soul. Passes that now to the medical world. She will challenge and perfect that too. You Joanne are a gift.

She's so beautiful

I was in Vancouver with friend who was just driving me around we got to our hotel and that was the first thing he read and told me i just heard the last name and was freaking out, such a crazy and SAD, of course, thing to happen

You are AMAZING I'm figure skating too and somethingsee are really hard from me but you inspired me to keep going

I cried 😭❤️

You are simply amazing.

such a strong woman

Sad that she wasn’t able to have that last dinner with her mom! Beautiful routine, lovely costumes and music! Love the one with the flower down the back. Unusual but pretty.

For me She Won GOLD. Her mother gave her Powers to win Medal and to compete the Olympic Games

Congratulations, Dr. Rochette!

I cried for her after she lost her mother

i cried.

I love that costume

The Holy Spirit enabled her God bless her

Very touching story. But sorry if I out of the topic, but anybody know whats the name of the song as the backsound?

진짜 멋있다.. 응원합니다😁

A Strong and Free Canadian

What was the song in the background?

I love Joannie Rochette all the time. She is the most beautiful figure skater with beautiful legs.

Brazil! ❣🇧🇷❣

RESPECT!!

Wow. She Deserves A Gold Instead Of A Bronze.

Un vero atleta gareggia sempre. Un'eroina... 🤗
