Yes, indeed! That giant smile flashing on the Bell Centre Jumbotron belonged to four-time U.S. National ice dance medalist Kaitlin Hawayek. As the 2024 World Championships official DJ, Kaitlin was spinning music instead of twizzles. During the Zamboni breaks, fans of all ages let loose and rocked the Centre non-stop to K Haw’s music mixes.
On January 15, Hawayek shared a post on Instagram that she and partner Jean-Luc Baker had decided to take a step back from competing for the remainder of the season and reevaluate options for future seasons.
