fashion ideas ice
To sum up my idea of on-ice costume fashion sense, it's probably that too much is never enough.
skating looks elements
To me, skating should look effortless even when you're doing the hardest of elements.
should-have water vitamins
I drink Vitamin Water nonstop - I should have an IV.
fur closets peta
I have a whole fur closet. I'm not afraid of PETA.
fall want way
I'm going to skate exactly the way I want to, create programs that I like, and everything will fall into place where it is supposed to.
fall ice ideas
Despite the usual idea of a figure skater, I have no rhythm when it comes to even walking off the ice. I fall off curbs all the time.
summer olympics events
The gymnastic events are really what I tune into the Summer Olympics for.
kings mean men
Nothing shocks me anymore. I've embraced men in thongs, I've embraced women with padded bras. I mean, I can embrace Larry King saying 'fierce.'
secret fans fur
I'm a huge fur fan; it's no secret to anyone anymore.
running kids names
Of course I was bullied and of course I was called names - my last name is Weir. That's very, very close to 'weird,' or 'queer' and any of those words. But I've never been anyone to cry over spilled milk or be upset because kids don't like me, or people don't like me... It makes my skin stronger and thicker. And why cry? Your mascara runs.
country appreciate world
I have always thought that being a good American is appreciating the world, not just your own country.
fashion long trying
In figure skating, your body can only last for so long. I can't be 50 and trying to skate but I can be 50 and be in fashion, so I have to look to my future and what I want to achieve.
drama tired games
The booing and the drama help make the Olympics interesting, but at what cost? When will people finally get tired of it and start watching the X-Games or competitive tire rolling instead?
trying littles tweed
Figure skating is a bit dated - it's like that tweed jacket you pull out of the back of your closet from time to time, and I'm going to try to Chanel it up a little bit.
