Olympian Johnny Weir Explains Why He Waited So Long To Come Out

CELEBRITY

Last week, it was revealed that Adam Rippon was the first openly gay American figure skater to qualify for Team USA in the Olympic games. While many of us cheered on the super-cute 28-year-old, some were a little peeved that two-time Olympic winner Johnny Weir wasn't considered to have already claimed that title. Now, Weir is setting the record straight (no pun intended) about why he waited until after his time at The Games. 

Weir, 33, competed in the 2006 and 2010 Winter Games in Turin, Italy, and Canada, but did not address his sexuality until his 2011 memoir, Welcome to My World. Since then, he has become a devout LGBTQ activist.

The figure skater reached out to other athletes via Twitter to recognize their hard work and endless efforts to compete in this year's Olympic Games, which will take place in PyeongChang, South Korea.

While Weir is no longer competing, he will be a correspondent for NBC Sports during this year's Olympic Games.
