Celebrities who have modelled for or collaborated with him include Dinara Baktybayeva, Aissulu Azimbayeva, Aliya Telebarisova (Kazakhstani actresses), Sabina Altynbekova, and Serik Sapiyev.[95]
Death
editTen was stabbed in the thigh on 19 July 2018 in Almaty by two carjackers who were attempting to steal his car mirrors, which were worth about 68 U.S. dollars.[96] After being stabbed, Ten lost about 3 litres (5.3 imp pt) of blood[97] and died from the severe blood loss at the Central Clinical Hospital in Almaty, three hours after being admitted.[98]
The Kazakhstan Minister of Culture and Sport Arystanbek Muhamediuly paid tribute to Ten, saying "Denis Ten was an incredible figure skater, the legend of our sport, our pride."[99] United States figure skaters Adam Rippon, Alex Shibutani,[100] Gracie Gold, Ashley Wagner, and Mirai Nagasu, who used to train with Ten, also paid tribute to him,[99] along with several other international figure skaters including Patrick Chan,[101] Tessa Virtue,[102] Scott Moir,[103] Evgenia Medvedeva,[104] Adelina Sotnikova, and many others.[citation needed] IOC president Thomas Bach stated, "Denis Ten was a great athlete and a great ambassador for his sport. A warm personality and a charming man. Such a tragedy to lose him at such a young age."[105]
The two suspects—both male, one aged 23 and the other 24 years old—were apprehended the next day.[106] In January 2019, they were sentenced to 18 years in a penal colony.[107]
A civil funeral service for Ten took place on 21 July 2018 in Almaty. Ten's coffin was taken to the Baluan Sholak Sports Palace, where friends, family, and members of the public gathered to pay their respects. A mourning rally was also held at the Barys Arena in Astana.[108]
