Johnny Mango Weir whine of the Week

johnny

What most of the press and fans seem to lack, that Johnny
has in abundance is IRONY.

Do you perhaps think that Johnny is being ironic on
occasion? Poking fun at it all?

My goodness, the guy is quite intelligent...and to think that
no one caught that "Camille" was a reference to his
music's compuser Camille Saint-Saens.

The reference to never being alone because he's got
Camille is a campy and refreshing way of saying that
if you're one with the music, you're not alone...

How do you know he isn't "putting on" everyone who asks
him idiotic questions..."Oh my God, Johnny, what happened to you?"

I would answer the same way he did about my missing aura instead of the dull, trite expected response we've normally heard from athletes since the Day 1.

Lighten up a bit and enjoy the camp...

That being said, a little off thread...I now LOVE BARBARA FUSAR-POLI
for providing some much needed entertainment. She is amazing and
the Olympics should erect a statue in her honor.

What?! in the interview when he said he's name the glove Camille he said very clearly it was named after the composer of his short program music.

I like his comments, i think he's funny, whether it was post PR mop up or a genuine realisation that he came across as giving excuses for his poor skate regardless of his actual intention he's issued a serious statement now saying that not of the stuff he mentioned matters, he just skated badly and it made him sad.

At least his playing on marketability as what we in the UK would call a Gob-Sh*te!!! Good for him.

that he named his glove camille...
