"Q: Why'd you get bangs if you keep slicking them back at events? ):
Johnny : I use my bangs when needed. "
"Q: Trying to lose 10 lbs, then what's the whipped cream for?
Johnny : I used to eat bowls of whipped cream as dessert if I needed it. "
“when I needed”, “ If I needed “ lol.
Wonder that he can eat only Whipped cream ??
I love to put whipped cream on top for star bucks coffee frappucinno or pie , cake, coffee jelly but never thought to eat only whipped cream …
In "Be good Johnny Weir “ ‘s finale, there were three cans of whipped cream in his refrigerator, and it looked before Olympics. ( or no ?) He looked very thin during the time.
Maybe my guess, when he stressed out from his diet, he eats bowls of whipped cream like crazy. And then next day, he doesn’t eat much.
"Q: Is your book going 2 be the 'bomb' you once promised, or a collection of anecdotes as stated by Gallery?
Johnny : I still don't have a title, but the book will be great. lot's of gossip and philosophy. "
He was saying the title may be“ lies and dirt” or something like that several month ago but I guess he changed his mind. Lots of gossip ??
"Q: How your personality changed from the past?
Johnny : I was very stupid publicly in the past, but now I am stupid and own it."
LOL, you are very wise, Johnny. Only people who have confidence about themselves can say these kind of words. Love it.
"Q: What do you usually like to do on long plane flights? I can never sleep so I just watch movies.
Johnny : I go insane on long flights. I read, play games on the TV, poke Tara when she passes out, meet the crew etc "
LOL Poor Tara… LOL I don't know why but I really enjoy seeing and hearing Johnny & Tara's communication. ( so does my husband. ) Johnny's action to Tara sounds like my action to my husband.
"Q: What's your favorite program? (own)
Johnny : my favorite programs are swan, poker face, Heartbroken, Yunona and fallen angel Still his favorite is The swan program. "
He may be liking all the programs which were popular. I love his Rondo program the most, then Poker face. He never talked about Rondo.
"Q: Are you afraid of anything?!?
Johnny : I’m afraid of sharks, spiders, germs, bugs, barracuda, flying, dark, war and everyone wearing the same thing ."
Love this he is afraid of " everyone wearing the same thing."
Be unique and creative no matter what other people may think or say.
I disliked the fact that all my co-workers who were girls were all carrying Louis Vuitton handbags in the same department when I was working for a jewelry company in Japan.
Many girls /ladies had Similar trendy hair style, trendy fashion, trendy make-up with popular brand handbags. It’s comfortable for them to be the same as others ???
But I originally like Louis Vuitton handbags and wallets, because the quality is great. Just when I found several people were carrying same items as me, I was not comfortable to carry them anymore.
" Q: When could you announce the pair skating with Stephane?? I want to watch it in Niigata!! :* JSGJ
Johnny : Stephane doesn't want to skate with me. we both like to be the "flower" in the pair. he refuses."
Johnny is such a teaser. lol
To do throw jump, Johnny will be the person to be thrown, and Johnny does it beautifully, will get more attention than the person who throw, even though Stephane posed artistically after threw Johnny. Maybe Stephane didn’t like it ??
Both of them are popular. But in Japan, Johnny maybe more popular than Stephane. ( after hearing some stories )
I’ve seen Stephane Lambiel and Jeffrey Buttle skated together in one of the Japanese ice shows, but it was without throw jump, and it was not so impressive to me.
I guess Johnny might refuse Stephane’s idea ( if he had ),too. Because both want to be flowers. Lol
I’m hoping Johnny will pair with Sasha Cohen, but they are also both flowers. So I just have to give it up.
"Q: Who are your favorite skaters to perform with?
Johnny : I love to perform with Plushenko, Slutskaya, Yu na kim, Ando Miki, Oda, Ksenia Makarova, & Evan Bates. "
So when he do his own ice show in the future, these members will be in his list to invite for his ice show besides celebrities and circus ? Love it !
Q: Are you really close with any of the non-American figure skaters? :)
Johnny : Ksusha Makarova is my baby sister. also close with Oda, Ando, Gedevanishvilli, Dytrt, Totmyanina.
"Q: Will you tell Brian Joubert to get a Twitter account?! You are friends, right? We need updates! :D
Johnny : Brian is very quiet and likes to keep to himself. But I'll push him
Q: If Brian is quiet how come you're friends? Are you two complementary or are you secretly quiet too? ;D
Johnny : Secretly I'm quiet and bashful. Brian is great. "
Interesting.
I only knew he was close friends with Ksenia, Elene.G, Annette, and Tonmyanina, but Oda and Miki are new for me. But nice to know about it especially Miki. Because I really like her.
Miki loves shopping, fashion and her favorite brand sounds like it's Gucci. She also cares about her fans very much. I noticed that in Olympics, Miki was doing similar things as Johnny was doing before starting skating and also after they finished skating.
Later I've read in Miki's interview, she was saying the most impressive performance in men's competition ( Olympics ) was Johnny Weir's performance. She sad she wanted to perform like Johnny did, which touched people's heart and connected to audience.
She is very emotonal. I don't know why but when she won Worlds in 2007, her emoional expression at K&C made me cry. While I didn't get this kind of feeling for any of the other ladies skaters. Her tears look so real and very emotionally deep, so when she had to withdraw in World 2008, her emotional interview with Peter also made me tear. Miki looks social and friends with many skaters.
Oda looks fun, and funny and I like him,too. Also Plushy and Joubert.
Many of his fans were expecting Johnny & Stephane ‘s pair.
But I thought Johnny is not much care about it after reading some of his interviews and also what he said about Stephane when he was asked from his fan at his Russian fan’s meeting.
These two together on ice is wonderful to see, so it’s a shame.
But when both of them want to be a main flower, not yang & yin, it’s not balancing.
Personally, my image of main flower = Johnny
Johnny was saying in the interview that he was inspired by Joubert at Kings on ice show ( in Russia ).
Joubert sat Johnny down and told him about his result of Olympics and sounded like he was supportive to Johnny‘s performances.
Joubert looks honest, speaks to his mind, out spoken, nothing superficial same as Johnny.
I’ve seen Joubert was responded to his fans in his face book ( Russian FB) and my impression of him has been a sweet person. Johnny looked shy to people until becoming close friend.
He also said in one of the questions, he usually wait people to come. Does it mean Miki is social ??
My husband Ray is a huge fan of Miki Ando, and also Johnny, so he was delighted to read about it.
" Q: Hi!Johnny, How do you celebrate your 2nd 25th birthday? and I love your Balanciaga tree! ;)
Johnny : I will celebrate with my closest friends on Thursday in NYC then Friday I have mani/pedi party with Tara. "
Hope he will have a wonderful happy birthday with his friends and Tara !
Mani/pedi party with Tara ?? Lol Sounds fun !
I love his closet ! It's like a treasures room. I'm learning from him how to organize our closet. Also love that Louis Vuitton bag !
I like glitter and colorful, so Balensiaga bags may not my taste. I need silver or gold metallic in handbag. But Johnny looks good on them.

"Q: Why'd you get bangs if you keep slicking them back at events? ):
Johnny : I use my bangs when needed. "
"Q: Trying to lose 10 lbs, then what's the whipped cream for?
Johnny : I used to eat bowls of whipped cream as dessert if I needed it. "
“when I needed”, “ If I needed “ lol.
Wonder that he can eat only Whipped cream ??
I love to put whipped cream on top for star bucks coffee frappucinno or pie , cake, coffee jelly but never thought to eat only whipped cream …
In "Be good Johnny Weir “ ‘s finale, there were three cans of whipped cream in his refrigerator, and it looked before Olympics. ( or no ?) He looked very thin during the time.
Maybe my guess, when he stressed out from his diet, he eats bowls of whipped cream like crazy. And then next day, he doesn’t eat much.
"Q: Is your book going 2 be the 'bomb' you once promised, or a collection of anecdotes as stated by Gallery?
Johnny : I still don't have a title, but the book will be great. lot's of gossip and philosophy. "
He was saying the title may be“ lies and dirt” or something like that several month ago but I guess he changed his mind. Lots of gossip ??
"Q: How your personality changed from the past?
Johnny : I was very stupid publicly in the past, but now I am stupid and own it."
LOL, you are very wise, Johnny. Only people who have confidence about themselves can say these kind of words. Love it.
"Q: What do you usually like to do on long plane flights? I can never sleep so I just watch movies.
Johnny : I go insane on long flights. I read, play games on the TV, poke Tara when she passes out, meet the crew etc "
LOL Poor Tara… LOL I don't know why but I really enjoy seeing and hearing Johnny & Tara's communication. ( so does my husband. ) Johnny's action to Tara sounds like my action to my husband.
"Q: What's your favorite program? (own)
Johnny : my favorite programs are swan, poker face, Heartbroken, Yunona and fallen angel Still his favorite is The swan program. "
He may be liking all the programs which were popular. I love his Rondo program the most, then Poker face. He never talked about Rondo.
"Q: Are you afraid of anything?!?
Johnny : I’m afraid of sharks, spiders, germs, bugs, barracuda, flying, dark, war and everyone wearing the same thing ."
Love this he is afraid of " everyone wearing the same thing."
Be unique and creative no matter what other people may think or say.
I disliked the fact that all my co-workers who were girls were all carrying Louis Vuitton handbags in the same department when I was working for a jewelry company in Japan.
Many girls /ladies had Similar trendy hair style, trendy fashion, trendy make-up with popular brand handbags. It’s comfortable for them to be the same as others ???
But I originally like Louis Vuitton handbags and wallets, because the quality is great. Just when I found several people were carrying same items as me, I was not comfortable to carry them anymore.
" Q: When could you announce the pair skating with Stephane?? I want to watch it in Niigata!! :* JSGJ
Johnny : Stephane doesn't want to skate with me. we both like to be the "flower" in the pair. he refuses."
Johnny is such a teaser. lol
To do throw jump, Johnny will be the person to be thrown, and Johnny does it beautifully, will get more attention than the person who throw, even though Stephane posed artistically after threw Johnny. Maybe Stephane didn’t like it ??
Both of them are popular. But in Japan, Johnny maybe more popular than Stephane. ( after hearing some stories )
I’ve seen Stephane Lambiel and Jeffrey Buttle skated together in one of the Japanese ice shows, but it was without throw jump, and it was not so impressive to me.
I guess Johnny might refuse Stephane’s idea ( if he had ),too. Because both want to be flowers. Lol
I’m hoping Johnny will pair with Sasha Cohen, but they are also both flowers. So I just have to give it up.
"Q: Who are your favorite skaters to perform with?
Johnny : I love to perform with Plushenko, Slutskaya, Yu na kim, Ando Miki, Oda, Ksenia Makarova, & Evan Bates. "
So when he do his own ice show in the future, these members will be in his list to invite for his ice show besides celebrities and circus ? Love it !
Q: Are you really close with any of the non-American figure skaters? :)
Johnny : Ksusha Makarova is my baby sister. also close with Oda, Ando, Gedevanishvilli, Dytrt, Totmyanina.
"Q: Will you tell Brian Joubert to get a Twitter account?! You are friends, right? We need updates! :D
Johnny : Brian is very quiet and likes to keep to himself. But I'll push him
Q: If Brian is quiet how come you're friends? Are you two complementary or are you secretly quiet too? ;D
Johnny : Secretly I'm quiet and bashful. Brian is great. "
Interesting.
I only knew he was close friends with Ksenia, Elene.G, Annette, and Tonmyanina, but Oda and Miki are new for me. But nice to know about it especially Miki. Because I really like her.
Miki loves shopping, fashion and her favorite brand sounds like it's Gucci. She also cares about her fans very much. I noticed that in Olympics, Miki was doing similar things as Johnny was doing before starting skating and also after they finished skating.
Later I've read in Miki's interview, she was saying the most impressive performance in men's competition ( Olympics ) was Johnny Weir's performance. She sad she wanted to perform like Johnny did, which touched people's heart and connected to audience.
She is very emotonal. I don't know why but when she won Worlds in 2007, her emoional expression at K&C made me cry. While I didn't get this kind of feeling for any of the other ladies skaters. Her tears look so real and very emotionally deep, so when she had to withdraw in World 2008, her emotional interview with Peter also made me tear. Miki looks social and friends with many skaters.
Oda looks fun, and funny and I like him,too. Also Plushy and Joubert.
Many of his fans were expecting Johnny & Stephane ‘s pair.
But I thought Johnny is not much care about it after reading some of his interviews and also what he said about Stephane when he was asked from his fan at his Russian fan’s meeting.
These two together on ice is wonderful to see, so it’s a shame.
But when both of them want to be a main flower, not yang & yin, it’s not balancing.
Personally, my image of main flower = Johnny
Johnny was saying in the interview that he was inspired by Joubert at Kings on ice show ( in Russia ).
Joubert sat Johnny down and told him about his result of Olympics and sounded like he was supportive to Johnny‘s performances.
Joubert looks honest, speaks to his mind, out spoken, nothing superficial same as Johnny.
I’ve seen Joubert was responded to his fans in his face book ( Russian FB) and my impression of him has been a sweet person. Johnny looked shy to people until becoming close friend.
He also said in one of the questions, he usually wait people to come. Does it mean Miki is social ??
My husband Ray is a huge fan of Miki Ando, and also Johnny, so he was delighted to read about it.
" Q: Hi!Johnny, How do you celebrate your 2nd 25th birthday? and I love your Balanciaga tree! ;)
Johnny : I will celebrate with my closest friends on Thursday in NYC then Friday I have mani/pedi party with Tara. "
Hope he will have a wonderful happy birthday with his friends and Tara !
Mani/pedi party with Tara ?? Lol Sounds fun !
I love his closet ! It's like a treasures room. I'm learning from him how to organize our closet. Also love that Louis Vuitton bag !
I like glitter and colorful, so Balensiaga bags may not my taste. I need silver or gold metallic in handbag. But Johnny looks good on them.
