It’s less than four days out from the Opening Ceremony, the official start to the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, when Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir sit down to have a virtual chat with For The Win. It’s what they described as the first day of their Olympics, sitting on a gray couch at NBC headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut, where they’ll cover the Games instead of in person rinkside.
Of course, they look fabulous, as they sidle up next to each other. Weir apologizes for slouching: “My hair won’t fit in the frame if I sit up straight.”
