About Johnny Weir
American television commentator and retired figure skater
Johnny Weir is an American television commentator and retired figure skater. Born in 1984, he became known for a competitive career that took him to two Olympic Games and made him a familiar figure in U.S. and international skating. He won bronze at the 2008 World Championships, earned two bronze medals at the Grand Prix Final, and captured the 2001 World Junior title. He was also a three-time U.S. national champion from 2004 to 2006, the youngest to win that title since 1991, and the first skater since Brian Boitano in the late 1980s to win U.S. Nationals three years in a row. In 2007, he became the first American to win Cup of Russia.
