Oksana Baiul was only 13 when her mother, Marina, died. Baiul won the 1993 World Figure Skating Championship in her first senior competitive season at the age of 15. She then won the gold medal at the 1994 Winter Olympics, defeating Nancy Kerrigan from the US. Baiul nearly missed competing in the free skate altogether, having been injured after a collision with Tanja Szewczenko of Germany during a warm-up session following the ladies' short program. She received two Olympic-approved pain-killing injections in her lower back which enabled her to perform and complete her free skate.

After the 1994 Olympics, Baiul moved to the United States where celebrity status, some injuries and a drinking problem led to out-of-control behavior including a car crash in November, 1997. She went through a rehab program in 1998 and returned to skating professionally.

Pics of the former skating star...I'm very curious as to why she's back in the spotlight. Anybody know?
