Weir started skating at age 12 after watching it on television and felt inspired by the performance of 1994 Olympic Champion Oksana Baiul. He landed his first triple jump within a year and made it to the Junior Olympics in both freestyle and pairs (with Jodi Rudden) on the juvenile level in his first year of skating. Weir starred in a documentary film, 'Pop Star On Ice' and two seasons of a reality show, "Be Good Johnny Weir" which chronicled his life. Weir has modeled for magazines and runways and is a spokes model for a cosmetics company. He idolizes Christina Aguilera, Irina Slutskaya and Lady Gaga. Weir speaks French and Russian. Weir returned to competitive skating after a hiatus of two seasons. He got married to Viktor Voronov in Dec 2011.
