Wednesday Weir-a-Thon!


Proof! (twitpic'd by Wendy Stevenz--thank you, Wendy!--when it happened around midnight EST last night):


So then:


Fans celebrated on Twitter by watching this:

Johnny's 2004 "Imagine" exhibition program,
performed at the conclusion of the NHK Trophy.


Then this (includes adorkable medal ceremony):

Johnny's free skate from that same NHK competition.


And finally this (bonus video cuz we weren't quite ready to call it a night):


Want more Weir? These two came across my Twitter feed yesterday:

Fab retrospective of Johnny's costumes from 1999-2006.


"Moulin Rouge on Ice," a montage by a Russian fan
with clips of Johnny, Stéphane, and Brian Joubert.
Brilliantly done!


And finally: Johnny also tweeted the link to this one last night, calling it one of his "favorite performances":

Johnny's "Feeling Good" exhibition from 2008's Festa On Ice.


Ahhhhhhhhhh.

It's moments like these that I understand having a cigarette....




There's still time left to bid on Johnny's donation to Figure Skating in Harlem's charity auction! Up for bid is his Poker Face costume created especially for the premiere of Skating With the Stars and autographed by Johnny. It's a fabulous item, and the money goes to such a worthwhile cause! #winning

BANG mood improvement achieved!!! That Moulin Rouge killed me with awesomeness. I am commenting from dean and gone to heaven, where Johnny prances in black & white and Binky scribes and collates so I don't mis a thing. Or maybe I'm dreaming. Have I mentioned my ovaries? Cuz they're involved too at this point. I am having emotion explosions. I feel so lucky that you exist to Johnnyfy otherwise poopy meaningless mornings. MUAH.

Thank you so much for the wonderful blog MM! I was on but missed the 90,000 twitter love because I was scanning old family photos into the computer at the time. I saw I had 200+ new tweets and I was thinking, what? They were all talking about hitting 90,000 and watching the videos. Then he lost two, then a third, then he was back up to 89,998. I got him an 89,999 and I'm not sure what happened after that, lol!
