More quotes by Johnny Weir
I showed myself a lesser version of myself that night, and I’m glad I learned from it.
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
I've always wanted to make a music video with skating and different imagery, something very artistic.
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
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 definitely feel like I'm more of an artist than an athlete. But I'm good at both.
Johnny Weir
Masculinity is what you believe it to be. I think masculinity and femininity is something that's very old-fashioned. There's a whole new generation of people who aren't defined by their sex or race or who they like to sleep with.
Johnny Weir
It's really grinding to always play out of both sides of your mind and always be thinking what will offend people. Or what won't. But I'm strong enough to deal with that. I own that I'm freakish in my way.
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
I would love to be a spokes model for Karl Lagerfeld or Balenciaga or something like that.
Johnny Weir
The gymnastic events are really what I tune into the Summer Olympics for.
Johnny Weir
If just one person, one child who is made to feel isolated, looks at me and sees that it is okay to be your own person and walk down your own path, then everything I have ever gone through will be worth it.
Johnny Weir
My family, the support of my friends, the amount of people that have written and come up to me on the street and said, 'Thank you for representing us,' and Adam Lambert, and Lady Gaga, that's been amazing.
Johnny Weir
I definitely don't think of myself as an actual male model. I'm far too short and my legs are far too muscular.
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
I don't want to spend my life on an ice cube.
Johnny Weir
To me, figure skating is an art form, and that's what I always try to bring in, even to my competitive programs.
Johnny Weir
I will be 60 or 70 years old still rocking my Chanel blazer with my hair all coiffed.
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
Figure skating is theatrical, and a part of it is wearing costumes. My costumes were very over-the-top and outrageous for figure skating. But for me, it's all beautiful. Even when nobody else believed they were beautiful, I felt beautiful in them.
