Yuka is lovely. Jason...not so much (in my opinion). :) There aren't that many really great looking male figure skaters (again, my humble opinion). Scott Davis was kind of hot, but I think he was troubled, no?

But John Z. -- very hot! I find it funny that he was on Queer Eye as not being a good dresser (I didn't see the show but that's what I heard). I like those leather-esque pants he wears when he skates. Throw a turtleneck over that and you've got an outfit! :yay

John may well be one of the few American-grown gorgeous male skaters, but have you checked out some of those Russian, French, and Italian guys? Ice dancers, especially, tend to be eye candy. (and straight!) :lol

His wife, Silvia Fontana, is now skating the short program at the Olympics. She missed a bunch of her jumps already but she's definitely a beauty on ice! She and John will have BEAUTIFUL children one day (if they choose to)!

Ya know, I hate to show how "duh" I am but being from Alabama...I didn't realize John was from Birmingham, Alabama!!!!! Does anyone know if he still lives here? as I contemplate stalking him in Birmingham..... :whistle

I think he and his wife live in New York.... or at least that's where they were when he was on Queer Eye. I know that a lot of skaters train in Connecticut and in New Jersey, but I'm not sure where John lives. He probably lives all over since he travels so much. :shrug

According to the bio on one of his websites, he and Silvia (and their two cats, who're also probably gorgeous) live in New Jersey:

"They recently bought a home in New Jersey, which they share with their two cats."

Did you guys see John with Silvia's coach last night? He looked so proud of her! Looks like he got his hair cut too -- looks nice!
