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 the fall-winter fashion week looming, I really wanted to go all out as I have been doing and attend as many shows as possible and be inspired and get into it, but at this point, the only show I'm planning to attend is that of my dear friend Chris Benz, just for support, and I'll probably go for 10 minutes.

Blogger's note: This quote could go onto TQJW's "In retrospect" page, even though Johnny said this less than a month before the February 9 start of New York Fashion Week. By the time of Chris Benz's February 13 show, Johnny had already attended several NYFW events.
