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.

With this costume, I feel like I got all the crazy stories in my head to translate into one place, into one costume, and that's sometimes hard to do when you have so many things going on in your head, and as a creative person I always am trying to find that one point in my head where I can say, "OK. Stop!"
