the Johnny Weir media blitz begins

Figure skater Johnny Weir, who addresses his homosexuality in the new book, Welcome to My World, tells TODAY’s Meredith Vieira that “I was born a white male, a white gay male, and I don’t celebrate being white or male, so why should I celebrate being gay?”



Welcome to My World hits shelves tomorrow (January 11)!

Johnny also performed to his new song "Dirty Love", also being released tomorrow, on Rockefeller Plaza.
