Yes, Johnny Weir, keep the bitchslapping coming against Evan Lysacek! Throwing barbs and turning cheeks at each other is either a carefully orchestrated publicity stunt to drum up headlines for both — or, what we believe to be true: Two catty queens who have to have the last word.
“Evan and I have had a very rocky relationship to say the least,” Weir tells WSJ. “Recently I was on Chelsea Handler [a show on the E! network] and it was through clever editing they had me winking at a very inopportune time it looked like me had me insinuating something about Evan so I’m sure he wasn’t happy about that. But I think in general he’s a very jealous person and a very two faced person. He’s the kind of person who will rehearse what he’s going to say in an interview two weeks in advance. He’s probably very jealous that despite the fact he’s an Olympic champion he’s on Dancing with the Stars and I’m writing a book and recording a song. I’m crossing over to be a personality. ”
To be fair, Evan is probably earning much more money on Dancing than Johnny will with his track “Dirty Love.” But it’s not like there’s only bad blood between these two: “But I can say I voted for him twice on Dancing with the Stars just as a sign of support. And I have always said he works very hard and does deserve his Olympic gold medal…But he mocks people and makes fun of people and I’m sure this was just a situation where he just said something that he knew would hurt me.”

I think these two would make a cute couple. They should just kiss + make up.
Literally.

@fredo777: And on television, in the midnight hour type shows, hahaha!
fredo777
@Mike L.: What?! No, never. That would be wrong, totally immoral, + so forth…
But, yes. ; }
Cam
Can you imagine both of these two at a party? Standing at opposit sides of the room sipping from tiny straws and hissing at each other?? lol

Clever editing my @$$. Even if the wink was edited in the things he said were more than enough for Weir to insinuate Lysachek is gay.
I personally thought the interview was hysterical, but find it annoying Weir is essentially trying to deny what he did.
Devon
I don’t care. I just do not care.
Chitown Kev
Queerty, this was a WONDERFULLY bitchy headline. That alone brought me to this story; I love a good bitch fight.
Qjersey
Evan is a bitch. You won boy, now act like you have some sportsmanship.
Team JOHNNY!
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
This catfight between two pirouettting ice queens is clearly the result of a hookup gone horribly, horribly wrong………..
Most likely it was a bitter desparate battle for the bottom……… :-p
Still love Johnny qWeir though! He finally came out of his sequined closet on Chelsea’s show!!! We can now embrace him as an official Gay!

@PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS: I never withheld any support of Johnny, b/c I frankly didn’t need him to say the words to know he was comfortable being himself. I suppose some of us need to hear the words, though.
D'oh, The Magnificent
For a closet diva queen, Lysacek is cute.

Great publicity for the both of these queens would be to put these two together in a reality based show, like Big Brother, or that Enemies reality show. It would be like a combination of the War of the Roses and the Lucy show. Evan and Johnny are both capitalizing on their cat fight. Perhaps they like each other and need each other more than is evident.

Evan looks like Liberace….just sayin
dave
Funny…the only place I see anything about these two is here/ Really… who gives a shit?
Baxter
@Obiwan: They need to go on the Amazing Race together. That would be comedy gold.
ossurworld
oh, yes, I can see Lyksacock and Weird doing the Who’s On First routine now….
WalkderDC
I’m getting bored with these two. And if you are going to credit anybody with Johnny Weir coming out, credit Chelsea Handler. She basically outed him and left him no choice but to admit or deny. Love ya Chelsea!
alan brickman
Evan is doing nothing…Johnny is STALKING HIM!!!! listen up!!!

Frankly it would be my worst nightmare to have the person I competed against for 10+ years finally best me in the BIg Kahuna of competitions, and then have to watch them go on to fame and fortune. (Relatively speaking, since winter athletes have a pretty short shelf life.) So, I get that Evan’s win and embrace by middle America must be eating up Johnny.
What is don’t get is why Johnny is constantly baiting and diminishing Evan at every opportunity like a poor man’s Michael Musto. Johnny is talented in his own right and has plenty of fans – the snarky jealously is getting boring.

@Baxter: This!
Someone make this happen! Hahahaha
Renee
I luv me some Johnny Weir! He is so talented and funny! I’m not sure Evan has a personality. Can’t wait to read the book.
