Beijing Roundup!

Johnny at the end of Artistry on Ice in Beijing. 
Breathtaking photo from the fabulous Chinese Angels.



Yes, of course we have more picspam. Please join me in wading through yet more photos from Johnny's Artistry On Ice China Tour: The Gift That Keeps On Giving.....



Beijing Fan Meeting!

At the fan meeting, Johnny dons the traditional 
Chinese coat hand-tailored for him 
as a gift from the Chinese Angels.



The lovely Maria Ma was kind enough to give this report of the fan meeting via Twitter:

We waited for him to return from shopping with Meg. Then he greeted us and thanked us for waiting there. After that, we gave him his gift: a traditional Chinese coat, which is specially made according to his size.

The coat is stunningly beautiful on him and it fits him pretty well. We asked the Russian fans for help with his measurements, but the coat is still a little bit big for him.

Then we handed him his Weibo account and password. [Johnny had tweeted before leaving for China that he wished he had a Weibo account so he could talk more with his Chinese fans. The Chinese Angels had set one up for him about two years ago, but when they saw his tweet, they figured maybe he had forgotten his password!]

Then he did Q&A with us by randomly picking Qs. We asked him about details of his competitive programs, the fight between Ping and Tyoma, his wedding, married life, etc.

He said Tyoma is so into torturing Ping that Victor sometimes has to sew Ping up. Then Tyoma does it again...

Then we promised him another traditional costume, and he signed his married name on the new banner. He said it was the first time he had autographed anything using his married name. He promised to practice the new name more. 


Then we waved him goodbye.



Johnny in his new coat. IDK what he's doing here, 
but all I can think of is, "Everyone has nipples."






During the meeting, he agreed to let fans 
gather more measurements for future gifts...


...down to every last detail...

Johnny's coat is absolutely gorgeous. Hope you do not make the jacket too closely fitting. Johnny waxes and wanes like the moon, eating normally when not training/competing and then shrinking down to fighting weight.

Thank you, all, for sharing the wonderful photos. You have captured the kindness and expression in Johnny's eyes.
