Finding someone to share your life with is one of the most important things a human can do and was preached to me by my mother.
Johnny Weir

I’m good when I’m alone. I’m comfortable when I’m alone. I can sit and do lots of things all by myself. Sex included.

Image
I definitely don't think of myself as an actual male model. I'm far too short and my legs are far too muscular.

Image
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.

I want to create things while I have time on Earth, and the art of costume and culture has always inspired me.
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.

Every little boy should be so lucky as to turn into me.

I drink Vitamin Water nonstop - I should have an IV.

Despite the usual idea of a figure skater, I have no rhythm when it comes to even walking off the ice. I fall off curbs all the time.
Johnny Weir
Image
I'm different, and I have to be a warrior to be that way. But I have had some success I hope I have touched the lives of some wonderful people, all by being what I see as myself but some others people see as different.

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.

I've never thought of the Olympics as a political statement. I really think a boycott ... is in the wrong as far as the athletes are concerned.

When you have an audience standing and screaming the entire way through the short program and cheering every element you do, whether it's footwork, or spin, or a jump, to have that kind of emotion coming at you from every direction in the building, it's the most amazing sensation you can get as a sportsman.

I'm a tough person. I wasn't afraid of other kids because I understood that someday they'd wash my car.

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.

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
Image
There are some things I keep sacred. My middle name. Who I sleep with. And what kind of hand moisturizer I use.
Johnny Weir
Image
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.

I would love to be a spokes model for Karl Lagerfeld or Balenciaga or something like that.
