I love Johnny Weir so much it hurts. In a platonic, "I want to go shopping with him" kind of way. Of course.
I heard about him on the Project Runway blog Project Rungay, and found out that he has a documentary and reality show, and what do you know! I don't have the Sundance Channel but it's On Demand, so I watched everything. And it was...
He's an amazing figure skater and an incredibly hard worker, but most of all I admire him because he's not afraid to be himself, and screw anyone who looks down on him! I want to be like that.
I think that he was tragically underscored in both of his programs in last week's Olympics, but especially in the free skate. He was amaaaazing and the scores didn't reflect the awesome at ALL. So unfair. Some people say that the judges purposely underscored him because they didn't want him skating in the exhibition today. They think he "sets a bad example." I think that not taking him seriously as an athlete because of his personality is setting a bad example.
