Slutskaya was born in Moscow on February 9, in 1979. She began skating at the age of four upon the urging of her grandmother, who thought the sport might reduce the youngster's frequent colds. Slutskaya took up serious training at a Moscow skating school two years later, and in 1996, at age 16. She went on to conquer the field at five other European championships (1997, 2000, 2001, 2003, and 2005). Those six titles equaled the records of the legendary Sonja Henie and two-time Olympic champion Katarina Witt. Slutskaya also won both the Russian national championship and the ISU Grand Prix Final four times (2000, 2001, 2002, and 2005). At the 2000 Grand Prix Final in Lyon, France, she became the first woman to land the highly difficult triple lutz-triple loop combination. She improved on that at the 2001 world championships, when she landed a triple lutz-triple loop-double toe loop combination. She also invented the double Biellmann spin with foot change. Slutskaya's impressive record was the product of determination, superb athleticism, and technical skills that included remarkable speed, complex spins, intricate footwork, and superb jumping ability-all of which she would need as she prepared to compete at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy.

The illnesses forced Slutskaya to sit out almost every competition during the 2004 season. She did skate in the 2004 world championship (after a mandatory tryout ordered by the Russian ice-skating federation), but she was less than fit and finished ninth. After all that she had gone through-and the fact that she won her latest championship at home-Slutskaya called her 2005 gold medal the dearest of her collection.

In the 2005 European championships, held January 23-27 in Turin, Italy, site of the 2006 Winter Olympics, Slutskaya skated to her sixth gold medal, equaling the career records of Germany's Katarina Witt and Norway's Sonja Henie. Susanna Pöykiö of Finland took the silver medal, the first for her country, while Yelena Lyashenko of Ukraine won the bronze.
