Vogue Nippon Johnny Weir Video, Blog and Pictures


Vogue Nippon Johnny Weir Preview includes the above video plus a picture of the magazine cover, as well as a picture of Johnny with Hello Kitty and the link to the Fashion Blog below.
A lovely Japanese friend  has translated the red circled words as 'Johnny Weir, Prince of the Ice, experienced glamorous Tokyo'.

Visit the Vogue Nippon Blog which has seven photographs of Johnny Weir plus three videos.  Six of the photographs are from the Vogue Nippon issue, and one is from the Kiss and Cry area at the Vancouver Olympics.  One video is the 'Image Spot' from Be Good Johnny Weir, another is his Bluefly.com Closet Confessions video, and the third is Johnny's performance of 'Poker Face' from Silk Skate For the Heart.  Included also is a link to LeBaron De Paris, the club where a party in Johnny's honor was held, and where one of the photo shoots for the magazines took place.

Johnny Weir's Japanese Media Odyssey

September 17, 2010 Update:

YesAsia.com is a website that sells Japanese, Korean, Chinese and other countries CDs, DVDs, electronics, toys, books and magazines.  Many items can be shipped internationally free of charge.  This is good news to those of us who have paid the high shipping charges for the MookBook, and expect to do the same for the magazines Johnny will be appearing in.  Vogue Nippon, and An-An can be obtained from this source.

While in Japan recently for the Fantasy On Ice shows Johnny Weir did a number of media interviews.  Among these interviews were four fashion magazines, including three fashion shoots in one day for three different magazines. In addition to the fashion shoots he also did at least two other media interviews, including one with that will appear in the morning issue of Yomiuri on September 17th.

The fashion shoot Johnny was most excited about was with Vogue Nippon.  He will appear in the December issue which will be released on October 28th.

Another fashion shoot Johnny did was with ANAN Magazine.  Fans were told he would be in the November issue; however a Japanese friend informed me to be careful with the dates because ANAN is a weekly magazine.

A third magazine Johnny interviewed with was Spur Magazine.  I am not sure of the release date of this issue. 

The fourth magazine Johnny did a fashion shoot with was a new magazine titled LaDonna.  He will appear in the December issue of LaDonna.
