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.

[Q. Loved you on RuPaul’s Drag Race! You’ve been photographed in a dress occasionally. Would you ever go full-on drag queen?]

I wouldn’t go full drag unless I had a complete make-over from a real Drag Queen, and just for a one-night-only situation, or for Halloween. Drag has never been a passion of mine. I do respect illusionists very much, but I am happy to be a boy and carry a purse, more than be a boy who looks like a girl carrying a purse. I like my penis too much to tuck and duct tape it!
