He is the best commentator they have ever had !! He is fun informative and gives that FU to Putin in his own way. Love him

And I can't wait to see what he wears next

Is he actually commentating? Cuz from what I've seen I haven't heard from him, only Scott Hamilton.

[–] Cari-shafer 10 years ago

Yes he is. He is with Tara Lipinsky.

You ( if you can) need to watch the live coverage on NBC sports network during the day. That is where Johnny and Tara are.

Terry Gannon, Tara Lipinski, and Johnny Weir do the live broadcasts on NBC Sports Network during the day. Tom Hammond, Scott Hamilton, Sandra Bezic, and Tracy Wilson cover the taped broadcasts on NBC Prime Time.

Ugh... He is over the top... Most women aren't even that girlie. I can't stand him... My opinion.

Bill Maher also mentioned him tonight on his show where he compares him to a FANCY looking MIXED DRINK.

And here's a message that was posted to that board:

JOHNNY looked very PRETTY in his HOT PINK PANTHER looking SUIT.

He also looked very nice last night when he was interviewed with the other shrimp who grabbed the GOLD MEDAL away from KWAN back in 98.

He was also one of the most ARTISTIC SKATERS that we've ever had here in the US, which also makes it a shame that most of the MEDALS in singles skating keep getting awarded to the most ATHLETIC and YOUNGER ones who can do the most jumps.

He was also very nice and lots of fun when we chatted online one time and I sang the lyrics of a French song to him.

Johnny Weir has always made his statements even in his skating so no, it was not a FU to Putin.

If you were listening, when Bob Costas tried to make it political on his show asking Johnny if he had any trouble, Johnny out right told Costas that he was NOT THERE to make a statement and changed the subject right away so what Johnny actually did was said FU to Costas

Kudos to Johnny for just being himself

I don't need your attitude. I have my own!
