Whenever “the dark net” is brought up in the news, it shocks me that people can even find it. I can’t even find Siri on my iPhone X. Like, where is she bruh?

That awkward moment when you find someone hot on the news, then the subtitles pop up and say he's a murderer.

For me, a great skating costume is a costume that will make photographs; it will be something that you can see on the cover of a magazine. It could be something that you'll have photographs of yourself for the rest of your life, sitting on the medal stand while listening to your national anthem. And you look wonderful. That, to me, is a successful costume.

It doesn't make a difference to me that my life is splashed in newspapers, or if it was just for my parents to see what I was going through. It hurts all the same.

I now know what it’s like to be loved and hated on an international scale.

I had to kind of defend the fact that I had a penis. It's silly, and in that way it's total bullying. It's total unacceptance of everything I represent.

It takes a brave person to come out publicly, whatever your own personal public may be--your friends at school, your coworkers, your teammates, or the world’s media.

My husband was not only coming out of the closet as a gay man with me, he was also coming out as married and most of the extended family learned about us through gossip and news rather than a wedding announcement or phone call. Start your engines.

I once told the worlds media at the Olympics that I didn’t perform well because my aura was black and I missed a bus to the arena and had to find other means of transportation in a foreign country and it just wasn’t my night. Couldn’t I have just told them I was nervous and didn’t have a good skate? A sane person perhaps would have gone with the uttermost truth, but while I didn’t lie, I still had to find a way to describe my feelings to the world and have them understand me. This plan of course backfired and I got cast as an insane lady-boy who believes in auras and can’t read a bus timetable.

I've never official "come out." When the media finds out the one thing you won't share with them, it's the only thing  they care about.

I've already been told there are certain networks in the United States that want Evan and I to skate at every competition together, just to make some kind of TV ratings and to make interest in figure skating again.

Very proud of @AndersonCooper. I recently shared an airplane ride with him and he smells of baby powder and sunshine. Well done sir.

One funny thing that happened was Evan Lysacek borrowing my pants for the pro-am. I didn't want to be a total bitch and say the expected "NO!," so I let him. There are plenty of other people he could have borrowed pants from who are his size, but it made a better story wearing mine. Him wearing my pants was a hit for the media, and it's funny that he "forgot" his pants in my home state! How clever. They call me an attention whore? Please...
