I definitely feel like I'm more of an artist than an athlete. But I'm good at both.

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 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
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.

I wouldn't participate in 'Stars on Ice' if I were asked. I find it an amateurish tour in a way, the production quality.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.
Johnny Weir
Image
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
Image
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 think being in the public eye can only help me launch into the world of fashion.

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.
