Going OT here, I thought it was kind of rude of Chelsea to exclaim "I'm gonna be nice to you; you're GAY!" What was she thinking?

That's what she meant to do. The most important thing is Johnny didn't say, "No" I think Johnny was a little mean that he winked when he talked about Tanith was Evan's girlfriend.
If you are a foreigner, I forgive your grammar, but if you are from America, you should be very ashamed.
then, it is understandable. I looked up her name and it didn't say. I do wish people would at least put what country they are from.
I have no idea who this Chelsea is, but then I don't follow teenage gossip. Is she that important that her statements can not be brought into LE CAFE?
(Oh dear, with so many male sportsman, can we blame the athletes for calling it a Little Girl Sport)
She's a late-night talk show host.
And "teenage gossip"? Geez.
I know! I read that and thought, does Joesitz (and the high horse he rode in on) really need to post here how he's FAR to intelligent and sophisticated for gossipy Chelsea Lately!? Seems kinda ostentatious to me!
As to his point on moving this to le café, I think this interview is as important as any of the other interviews skaters have given with the perhaps more highbrow media outlets that appear on these boards, no?

I've always thought that figure skating was not a gay sport for men. But the more you get into it and know, the more it appears to me that way. Now I am not so sure any more. There must be a lot of people would say, "See, I've told ya!" That is one of the main reasons that this sport is shrinking.
Are you saying figure skating is shrinking in popularity because there are too many gay skaters???
How to increase the popularity of this sport in North America? Change the culture. It looks like a losing battle because the culture cannot be changed.
Sorry, I didn't realize how important friendship is that it belongs in the main stream of figure skating. Beats a triple sal chow, I guess.I know!

It's OT:
No, I didn't mean that. But it is related to it.
I am saying that no one wants to enter a sport that is labeled "gay sport" except the real gays and a few dare devils who wouldn't mind to be mistaken as gays. More straight people would go to other sport. As a result, the percentage of gay skaters in figure skating will be higher and higher. And it will appear more and more like a gay sport. Therefore, the number of boys enter into figure skating is shrinking. That is the situation in North America. And that is the reason that there are more straight figure skaters in Europe and in Asia than in North America. How to increase the popularity of this sport in North America? Change the culture. It looks like a losing battle because the culture cannot be changed.

This sounds like casual observation/impression -- do you have any hard data to back up such these assertions?
