UPDATE:
New video!!
News report on the Guangzhou show,
featuring Johnny footage and interview
As Weibogeddon rolls on, there’s such an enormous amount and range of coverage, from lolworthy press conference freezeframes to quietly exquisite rehearsal moments, that it’s difficult to shape it all together without ending up with just a mishmash of stuff. So today we have three distinct sections: Some gritty rehearsal images from Shanghai that offer a glimpse of the hard work behind the sparkle and glamor; more rehearsal and performance photos from Beijing, including gorgeous new exclusives from Chinese Angel/Johnny’s Panda Maria Ma; and a brief bonus section of the latest random overnight stuff that is, well, yes: a mishmash. But a really wonderful one.
As always, please click any photo twice for full-size view. Especially the first and the last one.
Programming note. Coming up next, by popular demand: a transcript of the already legendary Johnny and Stéphane portion of the Shanghai press conference. Watch it here while you wait!

Gorgeous new fan art from @ayukovon.

the one at the top of today’s blog.
The two were posted by
Joveta to Weibo with this note:
“It is graceful grief and sweet sadness
to think of you, @JohnnyGWeir,
but in my heart, there is a kind of
soft warmth that cannot be expressed
to think of you, @JohnnyGWeir,
but in my heart, there is a kind of
soft warmth that cannot be expressed

A beautiful day,
a beautiful swan on ice.”

Thank you, Johnny's Chinese angels and Binky, for taking good care of Johnny and continuous coverage.
Looked like a very successful series of shows and encounters.
Any word on where Johnny got that amazing winged vest?
As mentioned above, the winged leather vest is a Jeremy Scott design for Adidas:

I agree: it's amazing on him!
