JOHNNY WEIR OFFERED PORN ROLE!

Posted by Adam

Wednesday September 8, 2010

Johnny WeirJOHNNY Weir was once offered a role in a porn movie!

The American figure skater says he was approached to do a “masturbation movie” but turned it down because it’s “dirty”.

“In spite of all the skills that I do have, to relate to the normal world I have no applicable skills,” he said.

“I can speak Russian.

“I can speak French. I know about Chanel. Especially vintage Chanel. I know what Halston is. All of these things, but they can’t really be applied to a nine-to-five.

“I was offered to do a porno movie. It was a masturbation movie. I looked at it and said no. It’s dirty.

“So I won’t do porn,I won’t do anything where I have to wear a big fuzzy animal costume, like no Disney On Ice or anything, and that’s basically it. I’ll try pretty much anything else. I mean, I don’t want to drive a Zamboni.”

    Can you be any more flaming? I’m okay with the whole gay thing, but please, when your entire being is all about being gay, I kinda think you have a problem. I mean if I went around in shirts with the sleeves ripped off to show off my biceps and had naked lady mud flaps on my truck and a nudie calendar in my office to show how hetreo I was, people would think I was nuts (or trying to hide something), but when someone is that much of a queen – well – it’s a little over the top.

    So this is what happens when you don’t win an Olympic Gold Medal.Evan Lysacheck beat Johnny at Nationals,Worlds,Olympics because he gave everything up and gave 110% of himself to do it.There are plenty of gay figure skaters(Brian Boitano,Rudy Galindo,Brian Orser)who have more class and decentcy in their little finger than you do in your whole body.Next time when you wonder why the figure skating establishment(ISU)has no respect for you,look at yourself in the mirror.

    With those elongated and pointy incisors, perhaps he should consider a part in the Twilight movies?

  • Lesley

    I will take Johnny’s skating over Evan’s any day of the week. My husband is also a huge fan of Johnny Weir. His artistry on ice is simply exquisite.

  • babymags

    I love Johnny! I appreciate his loyalty to his convictions. It has nothing to do with him being gay. He is a talented skater with his own sense of style. He doesn’t buy into all of the hype and just does what he was born to do. I admire him for not selling out and conforming to what society deems as acceptable. As far as Evan goes, give it some time, he will come out of the closet, it may not be in heels or fur but it will happen! Also, I don’t see Evan having his own show on Sundance like Johnny does. If you don’t like Johnny or appreciate what he does, don’t read anything on him, post comments or turn the channel. Johhny’s true fans aren’t interested in listening to your ridiculous ramblings. P.S. If you are going to post negative comments, check your spelling because not only are you ignorant, but illiterate too!

    I like Johnny he’s out there definitely but so what who’s he harming?

  • Skyman1

    I think Johnny is really selling himself short. I’m sure his masturbation skills, both mutual and otherwise, are highly applicable in the real world. As far as him thinking that movies about guys masturbating are dirty? Highly doubtful!

  • Skyman1

    Oh yeah, one more thing. This guy isn’t fooling anyone. He has definitely driven a few Zambonies in his time.

  • karen

    Johnny is just Johnny I admire him for not trying to be someone he’s not I came from the same small town In Pa that he did as a matter of fact I know a lot of his family and they are very good people If he is gay so what that’s his business not ours and Katie the only reason Johnny lost to Evan is because he doesn’t hide who he is i personally along with many more people i know agree that he was beautiful in the olympics he skated his heart out and rocked the tassle We came from a very conservative part of Pa and to those i have spoken to there all agreed with me Johnny was definately robbed if people don’t like the way he looks dresses or talks don’t look

    • Katie

      Karen-He came in 4th so how can you say he was robbed.Evans combination of a triple triple triple is higher scored than any other jump including the quad.Plus for footwork Evan straight footwork is considered high scored than Johnnys who does the footwork in a circle.Unfortunately the sport of figure skating has become who can jump the highest.If it was just on artistic than Michelle Kwan should have won the two olympics that she competed in but didn’t because she couldn’t do the triple triple like the younger skaters of tara lipinski and sara hughes.Michelle Kwans body was giving out on her.This sport is for the younger crowd.Johnny has also been told by every coach that he has had that he needs to learn to do the quad or a triple,triple,triple combo if he hopes to have a chance of winning a olympic medal.I think the reason why JOhnny has decided to sit out this season and explore his other options is because he knows that he is getting older and time is running out.He is two years older than Evan.Evan is only 25 and Johnny is 27.

      Figure skating is also a very political sport.So if you piss of the wrong people you are doomed.The sport is all about saying the right thing and acting and dressing the right way.

        @Katie – Evan didn’t do a quad or a triple-triple-triple combo. His three jump combo was the same as Johnny’s, a triple-double-double. As a matter of fact, Johnny and Evan did the exact same jumps at the Olympics. Plus, I’m not sure what you’re talking about regarding Evan’s straight-line footwork versus Johnny’s circular footwork. All male skaters are required to do two step sequences, so Johnny and Evan did straight-line steps AND circular steps in each program. Not one or the other.

        One more thing, Johnny is 26, not 27. He is 1 year older than Evan.

      • katie

        Jaded-Whatever jump combo that evan did is worth more points in the new scoring system that had been out for a year.Go ask any elite figure skating coach,even go back and watch the olympics the comintators said that Evans combo is harder than a triple double double.Evan did 3 rotations 3 times right after each other and as you said Johnny did triple-double-double(3 rotations,two rotations,two rotations).Who did more rotations?Evan.So more rotations are worth more.They also taking points off if you don’t take off on the right side of the blade and also they say in a jump if you don’t complete swing your leg around when you land it,it is not considered a incomplete jump.

      • Jaded

        @Katie – You are WRONG. Evan’s three jump combo was a 3-2-2 (triple flip – double toe – double loop). He received negative GOE (Grade of Execution) on it from the judges, so his total score for that element was 8.73 points. Johnny also did a 3-2-2 (triple lutz – double toe – double toe). Johnny received positive GOE from the judges, so his total score for that element was 9.86 points. Johnny’s three jump combo outscored Evan’s three jump combo by 1.13 points.

        Also, Plushenko had the highest scoring combo. His 4-3 (quad toe – triple toe) scored 14.60 points. Evan’s highest scoring combo was his 3-3 (triple lutz – triple toe). He received 11.40 points for that combo. Johnny’s highest scoring combo was also a 3-3 (triple lutz – triple toe). He received 11.80 points for that combo (.4 points higher than Evan).

        Everything I just said can be found in the judges’ protocols on the Vancouver Olympic website (link below). Just click on the + beside the final score of each skater, and you’ll be able to view the EXACT list of executed elements and points scored.

    We are not saying Johnny should have gotten the Gold medal we are all saying he should have at least been awarded the bronze thats where we all think he was robbed I watched the entire thing and have never in all the years I have watched the olympics seen so many skaters fall as far as him pissing people off yeah he does LOL But thats where he is Just Johnny he has always been that way. I also love the fact that when he was not awarde the medal he did not piss and moan about it like at least one of them did he accepted the fact he didn’t win and he knew why and like you said it was due to the way he just says what he wants when he wants and dresses the same to me that makes him a real person take me as I am I would love to see him skate again but if he decides not to well then so be it

  • Katie

    Karen,Jaded,rest-Here is the a link for the new figure skating scoring system that has been going for two years now. http://www.usfsa.org/Content/201011-SP-SOV.pdf

    So by the new scoring system:
    Evans jumping combo was worth=16.8
    Eveginie(russina)quad was worth=10.5
    Johnny jumping combo was worth=8.1

    so you see Evans jump combo was worth 6-8 more points than the other two.The other two skaters new that the new scoring system at been out for a year before the olympics so they new the jumps they had to do but they chose to do easier.Evan has coaches and program designer who designed a program for him that could win a gold medal within the new scoring system.That is legal.everyone had the chance to do that but chose not too.

    Its like i said in my comment above figure skating is about saying the right things,dressing and acting the right way.So if you piss of the establishment in any way you are doomed.It may not be fare but that is the rules for this sport.

    • Jaded

      @Katie – I know exactly how the new scoring system works, and by the way, the “new” system has been in place for a lot longer than 2 years. Anyway, like I said in my post upthread, you are WRONG about Evan’s jump combo. Please refer to my post upthread where I explain just how wrong you are. It’s all laid out in black and white, and backed up by the official judges’ protocols.

      • katie

        Jaded-If you would get your stuck up snotty nose of the ceiling you could read my comment below that said if I was wrong I am wrong.

        I still stand by what i said about it being about saying the right stuff and behaving the right way.I also stand by what i said when its a money sport.Do you think if it wasn’t a sport for people who had money skaters like Michelle Kwan could afford new Vera Wang outfits at every competition she did.Peggy Flemming,Michelle Kwan,tara lipinski,Sarah Hughes all came from money.Do you think that Michelle Kwan could have stayed in the sport as long as she did if she hadn’t come from money?No she couldn’t of.

        I was once an elite gymnast.If elite figure skating costs a month as much as gymnastics does with the top coaches.Then its a money sport.Elite gymnastics at even the junior level costs $10,000+ a month and that is just for coaches salary.

      • Jaded

        @Katie – I don’t think it’s “stuck up” or “snotty” to call someone out for being completely wrong and spreading false information. You are stating things in this thread like they are facts, when you clearly don’t know what you’re talking about.

        Also, I was posting my response at the same time you posted you’re “If I’m wrong, I’m wrong” post. I didn’t see it until after I posted.

      • Jaded

        That should read *your* not *you’re*.

  • katie

    Jaded-If I am wrong I’m wrong I just went by the new scoring system I found.Well anyways,Evegeni wont being skating this season because I heard and read in figure skating news that he is in trouble with the ISU because he didn’t declare with the Russian government that he was going on tour this summer.So if he decided to not overturn the ruling he is out for a year.That basically means that his amateur days are probably over and Johnny basically in other words says he is retiring.Evan still at this point is going to skate this season.

    This is a political sport whether you like it or not.If you piss of the wrong person you are doomed and they will never let you forget it and move on.

    I also heard that Frank Carrol(evans coach)talks to the judges(which is legal)after the competitions are over and find out where his skaters can improve.This is legal and any coach can do it but you never hear about the other coaches doing it.

    Figure Skating is also a money sport.Evan grew up with parents who had money and the other two didn’t.So his parents could get him the best their is in the sport from a early age.

    • Jaded

      @Katie – I’m not sure where you get your information, but most of it is pretty bogus, lol. Evan is skipping the entire Grand Prix circuit this season. He said that there is a 50-50 chance that he’ll compete at Nationals, but he hasn’t decided yet. But, either way, he’s definitely not skating the entire season.

      The ISU (International Skating Union) released a statement recently that said they were in talks to reinstate Plushenko’s amateur eligibility status. It is only a matter of time before this happens. And since Plushenko has said on numerous occasions that he’s aiming to compete at the 2014 Olympics in Sochi Russia, I really doubt we’ve seen the last of him.

      Weir said he’s taking a year off from competition. He hasn’t officially retired, but I guess we’ll just have to wait and see on that one.

      One more thing, lots of coaches and skaters seek out and receive feedback from judges and technical callers once competitions are over. This is a very common practice, not just something Frank Carroll does.

  • Katie

    Jaded-If you would get off your high horse and notice when I said if I was wrong I am wrong.You just choose to ignore that part.You are obviously a devoted fan of figure skating and have the time to waste looking up facts and scores on net news and figure skating magazines to proove other people are wrong. I don’t have figure skating magazines,I just read and read one news persons OPINION,and that is all it is an OPINION.I wish I had your time to waste to look up info to show people that they are wrong but I dont.

    I am probably older than you by more than 5 years.I am 29 years old.I am tired of argueing with people who still deal with others using the childish school yard behavior of “Your wrong,I’m not,so hahaha”.In fact I am at work right now.I am doing this right now since its a slow work day.

    • Jaded

      @Katie – You’re the only one being childish here. You’ve called me “stuck up” “snotty” “on a high horse” “childish”, and all I did was point out that the information you are INSISTING is correct, is in fact, wrong.

      Also, if you don’t have time to “waste” looking up figure skating scores, then maybe you shouldn’t be stating your uninformed views as FACT on the internet. Sorry you got mad at being called out.

      And I did acknowledge your “I’m wrong” post upthread. Like I said earlier, you were posting that at the same time I was replying to your super-condescending post lecturing me about the “new” scoring system.

      I’m done here. :) Have a nice day.

  • Katie

    Jaded-Can’t you accept that I admitted that i was probably wrong.Obviously you are still imature because you laugh as someone who is wrong.Do you do that to everyone that is wrong?

    Why can’t you accept that not everybody is going to like Johnny Weir and his skating.I accept that you don’t like Evan.

    Why can’t people just accept that it was between Evegeni and Evan for the gold medal and it wasn’t Johnnys time.Some skaters can’t do the harder jumps.Michelle Kwan knew she couldn’t do the triple triple combo to win so she did what she could do to possibly win that gold medal.

    • Jaded

      @Katie – Okay, one more thing from me since you still don’t seem to get it.

      You wrote “Why can’t people just accept that it was between Evegeni and Evan for the gold medal and it wasn’t Johnnys time.Some skaters can’t do the harder jumps.”

      I agree that it was between Evan and Plushy (and Takahashi) for the gold medal, but that was because of politics and not technical ability or lack thereof. Evan and Johnny did the same jumps at the Olympics. Neither one did a quad, neither one did a 3-3-3 combo. So when you say, “some skaters can’t do the harder jumps”, if you’re referring to Johnny, then that also applies to Evan.
