More quotes by Johnny Weir
Nothing shocks me anymore. I've embraced men in thongs, I've embraced women with padded bras. I mean, I can embrace Larry King saying 'fierce.'
Johnny Weir
I think it is important for young people to see other young people on television doing something positive with their life, making positive changes and growing. I don't think there is enough of that on TV. I mean, we've got 'Jersey Shore,' and I don't know what that teaches young kids.
Johnny Weir
Every little boy should be so lucky as to turn into me.
Johnny Weir
In figure skating, your body can only last for so long. I can't be 50 and trying to skate but I can be 50 and be in fashion, so I have to look to my future and what I want to achieve.
Johnny Weir
The gymnastic events are really what I tune into the Summer Olympics for.
Johnny Weir
I drink Vitamin Water nonstop - I should have an IV.
Johnny Weir
I wouldn't participate in 'Stars on Ice' if I were asked. I find it an amateurish tour in a way, the production quality.
Johnny Weir
I think I've gotten more attention after the Olympics than any other U.S. athlete, and it's really great that people are recognizing who I am and what I do. You look at Shaq and you see a basketball player. You look at Tiger Woods and you see a golfer. But people are responding to who I am.
Johnny Weir
I design all of my costumes. I like to go out there and feel like I have contributed to every part of what I do. I choose the music, the choreographer, I've obviously chosen my coach, my costumes - all if that falls under my realm of power, my realm of influence.
Johnny Weir
Out of ugly, make something beautiful.
Johnny Weir
I'd say in general, my style is Johnny Weir style. It's my style. I can't classify it as anything else.
Johnny Weir
There are some things I keep sacred. My middle name. Who I sleep with. And what kind of hand moisturizer I use.
Johnny Weir
For me, I skate as masculine as I can. I'm not a big strong guy. I'm not interested in fighting or throwing punches or balling my hands in fists all day. I'm not interested in guns, I'm not interested in football or stereotypically masculine things, so I'm going to skate in a fashion that is manly for Johnny Weir.
Johnny Weir
I played soccer, and I was the kid who ran the wrong way, or I was pretending to be some sort of zebra and I would flail my arms and kick up my legs.
Johnny Weir
Being in the public eye is part of what I do, and taking on a multitude of different projects - television, radio, fashion, writing or deep-sea diving - is a blessing. It is also how I pay my bills and fund my own skating, as I don't have a sponsor or financial help from my federation.
Johnny Weir
I got into figure skating for the art of it, as well as the sport, and how much I love it. And, you know, I do everything that I want. I march to my own drummer. Sometimes people have an issue with that, and I can't control it.
Johnny Weir
I'm a tough person. I wasn't afraid of other kids because I understood that someday they'd wash my car.
Johnny Weir
To me, skating should look effortless even when you're doing the hardest of elements.
Johnny Weir
I'm going to be a happy housewife. I'm going to be washing boxers and cooking and doing all those sorts of housewife duties. I just want to be happy and proud of every single day.
Johnny Weir
I am often criticized for spending too much time off the ice, but if you were in my shoes, you'd see how necessary it is.
