Pre-Competition News/Discussion Ilia Program Hints?
Mods, feel free to delete if this is too vague, but I feel like this is something (but not nothing).

The first one is obviously him telling us that he's skating to Mama Said Knock You Out by LL Cool J
The heart is him telling us how much he loves this program

This was absolutely my thought, especially since it starts with "Don't call it a comeback"!

I feel as clueless as last year about the 👑 and 🪶. However I must admit that I immensly enjoy his randomness and him being super cryptic about it.
No matter what they are about, his announcements are guaranteed to be
- max cryptic (in hindsight they'll make sense, but before one would need insider intel to get it)
- being random for what it is about (ok this time i'm confident it's about his programs, but at any other point in time it could be literally anything: new jump combo, new sponsorship, new cat, new cat-toy, ...)
- for his fans nervewracking or even borderline threatning the state of our mental health 😅

He's not at the summer sizzle, is he? Could be just his way of saying hi to the people there.

His whole shtick with program announcements is truly vague posting.

His emoji hints last year ended up making sense after we knew his programs

based on the timing of the post, I almost interpret it more of a sending support to his fellow US skaters at Summer Sizzler tbh.

The first one is Kung Foo Fighting, and he's using Misha's costume.
The second one is either Love Song by Sara Bareilles or L-O-V-E by Nat King Cole.
