    Mailhot and Goldberg should not attend bullfights. The matador costumes would only make them faint.
    Also, they shouldn’t watch European competitions in certain sports. The competitor sometimes receives a congratulatory kiss. This might make Goldberg’s and Mailhot’s heart race far too fast!
    And while here, I may as well say these guys shouldn’t attend golf games. Not one speck of dust on these guys’ clothing. They’d be aghast if they saw that!

    AS AN AUSSIE, I WISH JOHNNY WAS ONE OF US- HE IS MAGNIFICENT – HAS AN AMAZING SENSE OF HUMOUR (THAT MOST PEOPLE DON’T SEEM TO GET) I HAVE JUST BEEN SENT A DVD OF THE AMERICAN CHAMPIONSHIPS SHOW WHERE HE WAS ALL IN BLACK – I CANT STOP WATCHING HIM – WHEN HE IS FREE WITHOUT RESTRAINTS OF JUDGING HE IS ON HIS OWN. I LOVE HIM.

    HAVE JUST READ WHERE SMUCKERS AND IMG ARE NOT ALLOWING JOHNNY TO APPEAR ON ‘STARS ON ICE’ WORDS FAIL ME – IF MR OBAMA HAD GONE AHEAD WITH HIS AUSSIE VISIT I WOULD CERTAINLY HAVE HAD A WORD WITH HIM. ITS A SHAME THESE COMPANYS MANAGEMENT ARE SO HOMAPHOBIC AND NARROW-MINDED. I AM IN A STATE OF SHOCK. SHAME ON THEM.

    It was so nice seeing Johnny commenting so eloquently about the persecution he faces. He mentions that frankly comments about him arent important, However if you are a child watching the programme and you hear a commentator openly abusing him just what damaged does that do to the child. I am incredibly happy that he has addressed this issue.
    Well Done Johnny!
