Johnny Weir

Whether witty or wise, controversial or charming, shocking or silly, sweet or sassy, provocative or profound, inspiring or infuriating--or any combination of those--Johnny Weir, the three-time U.S. Champion, two-time Olympian, and World medalist figure skater, almost always says something worth quoting whenever he commentates a skating competition, makes a TV appearance, gives an interview, holds a press conference, writes, tweets, or is caught on video. His quotes needed to be collected and shared; hence this blog.

All I get from the federation is complaints. They're always calling, complaining about this or that. They don't like my hair. They don't like my clothes. They don't like my programs. They don't like my music. My skating is too Russian. Too gay. Too foo-foo. But I love ballet. I love classical music. That's how I rock it.
