Throwback! It's actually been a long time since we've heard this one!

Check out the grace and skill of Johnny Weir on the Battle of the Blades last night as he performs to Lady GaGa's Just Dance! (above)

Fierce!

Meow!!

The claws are out again!

And this time Evan Lysacek is on the attack!

Evan got a random question from one of his extremely rude followers on Twitter, asking:

@evanlysacek Hey Evan, is Johnny Weir really a guy? hard to tell from the photos I've seen LOL ;)

And how did Evan respond?

Tacky and tactless, of course!

Evan replied:

@TahitianFantasy verdict is still out.

Okay, whatever, you robotic and tinhearted GAYFACE homophobe!

We bet you just have a huge hard-on for Johnny and are just denying your true feelings! You can't fool us!

Whaaaat?

Olympic figure skater and all-around fabulous human being Johnny Weir has officially announced his retirement from ice skating — at least for the next year.

His statement reads:

My dearest fans,

I would like to officially announce that I am withdrawing my name from the 2010-2011 competitive season. My decision comes after months of weighing the pros and cons of competing this season, and I have decided that I need a year to explore and reinvent myself as an athlete and artist. There are many projects that I’m currently working on and that I want to devote my time to, including my single, "Dirty Love," my fashion line, "Be Unique," and my quarter-century memoirs to be published with Gallery Books. I’m also working on the second season of my hit reality TV series, and of course skating in shows around the world and producing my own skating spectacular.

I want to thank so many people: My mom, Patti; my coaches, Galina Yakovlevna Zmievskaya, Viktor Vassilievich Petrenko, and Nina Leonidovna Petrenko; my choreographer, David Wilson; my agent, Tara Modlin, and Fireworks Sports Marketing; and my friends, family, and most of all my fans. I skated for my fans this season, and I was able to skate because of them. They gave me inspiration every day in practice and helped in so many ways to get me back to the Olympics for the second time. I am forever in your debt.

The main reason for my decision is to have more time to reinvent my skating. I want to create a new skating image for myself so that when I return to competitive skating, I can perform in a way that is both unique and inspiring. I say all of this in hopes that I will return as a competitor for the 2011-2012 season.

At twenty-six years old, I have been competing at the highest level of the sport since 2000. Training and competing have been my only way of life for the past thirteen years. While it has been a magical journey, I feel that a brief hiatus will be truly beneficial to my skating and my future.

Although I’m taking a break from competitive skating, I still hope to be on the ice as often as possible, training and performing for my many fans around the world. I have even selected music for my next competitive programs and am already dreaming up costumes.

While my eyes are currently focused on many different projects, my brain will never forget about the Sochi Olympics in 2014. It would be a dream for me to compete in an Olympic Games in Russia, and I think one thing my fans know about me is that I don’t give up on a dream easily.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me. I hope to be performing for you very soon. I believe this is the right step for me to make in my career at this time, and I am very proud of everything I have accomplished so far in my life as a figure skater.

Thank you.

-Johnny Weir

Well he may be taking a hiatus from skating, but it sounds like we'll be seeing a LOT more of Johnny Weir with all of those projects he's handling!

Exciting!

LOLz! Our fave part was when John-John told folks he was 5'10!

Ha! Maybe on skates, if that!

We want Johnny Weir on Dancing With The Stars — and it just might happen!

Johnny reveals:

“I hope [I’m going to do Dancing With the Stars]. I met Karina Smirnoff a few weeks ago and she was like, ‘Johnny, you are the perfect height for me. Let’s dance.’ So…it’s on. I’ve chosen my partner, I’m ready.”

So is Karina up for it? Sounds like it! She adds:

“I’m a big fan of Johnny. His heart, his guts, he’s got balls in every routine and I love that. I think for Dancing With the Stars, you gotta have not only determination, but you gotta have that drama, that deeper side of you, and Johnny has it! I’m rooting for him to be on the next season of Dancing With the Stars.”

Us, too! And we think Karina would make a great partner for Johnny.

What do U think?
