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: Given your expertise in styling good-looking outfits, what constitutes a successful ice skating costume?]

For me, it was important that I felt pretty when I ice-skated. If I wore something--no matter how ridiculous--as long as I felt beautiful, I knew I would skate better in something that I felt good in. If I wore something heinous, I would skate heinously.
