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.

I am flamboyant, I am artistic, I am different, I'm weird, I have one highlight in my hair. And I don't think there's anything wrong with that, and people that have an issue with me for all the wrong reasons--my flamboyance, my over-the-top gayness, as they would say--it's usually because they have something going on inside themselves...It's not me hurting them.
