The time has come for Johnny Weir.
The Olympian and Delaware resident will perform his final U.S. Skating performance at the 2023 Spring Ice Show “Galaxy On Ice, Starring Johnny Weir.” Shows are Friday and Saturday, March 31 and April 1.
However, Weir is much more than a figure skater. He has turned into a pop culture icon between his skating commentator gig with Tara Lipinski to his reality television performances on “Dancing With The Stars” and “The Masked Singer” to appearances on “The Family Guy” and “Night Court.” As Weir takes the final bows of his skating career, here’s a look back at the many ways we’ve seen Johnny Weir.
