Australian Olympic diver Matthew
Mitcham and drag superstar RuPaul are set to appear on the second
season of all-gay cabler Logo's Be Good Johnny Weir.
The first season of the reality series
which follows the two-time Olympian and three-time U.S. National
Figure Skating champion was broadcast on independent film cabler the
Sundance Channel.
The new season premieres Monday,
September 17 and is expected to include Weir's public coming out gay
in his memoir Welcome to my World and his whirlwind romance
with and marriage to attorney Victor Voronov. The 28-year-old Weir
also recently announced his return to competitive figure skating with
the hopes of competing in the 2014 Olympics.
In one episode, Weir seeks out dating
advice from Mitcham.
“How do you make a relationship work
when you're constantly training and running all over the world to
compete and it's just madness?” Weir asked.
Mitcham described his partner as very
grounded, which allows them to keep their lives private.
RuPaul's advice on the music industry
is sought in another episode.
“Please. Twenty-first Century.
Nobody expects you to be Judy Garland out there hoofing it out and
singing with the band. Being able to sing isn't the biggest part of
being a singing star,” RuPaul told Weir. (A trailer for the
upcoming season is embedded on this page. Visit
