UPDATE: Johnny’s latest column is up at the Falls-Church News-Press: “Johnny’s World: Orange Birkin.” Don’t let the title lull you into thinking you’re embarking on a fluffy ode to fashion: It’s a stinging and powerful must-read that helps explain Johnny’s recent absence from social media, which had fans worried. I’m kind of

Propaganda

Johnny in one of his traditional warmup jackets 

emblazoned with the word “Russia.” 

As a well-known openly gay man whose marriage 

to Victor was front-page news in Russia, 
he is, in the eyes of Russian law, 

literally “homosexual propaganda.”

"Should Anything Happen to Me..."

Johnny during his last visit to Russia, in November 2012. 

Read about his harrowing experience during that trip 

in the column he wrote when he finally got home—

a story he was forbidden to tell, but which he did anyway, 

with the same fierce courage that now fuels him 

to challenge Russia’s “gay propaganda” laws 

by standing with the LGBT community in Russia 
and by refusing to censor

"I Am Myself, Never Flinching"

“I will fight for my right to go to Russia. 

I will fight to perform there. I will fight to show 

the government how strong my community is. 

I will proudly go to Russia ... and hold my head high. 

Should I get arrested, I will be arrested with the pride 

that I am myself, never flinching, and I will be strong 

for the oppressed community of beautiful people 

who I can call brothers.”
