“When you were a professional skater, did you ever have a ‘Heated Rivalry’ type romance with a closeted athlete?” a woman asked, referring to the steamy Crave/HBO Max series about two gay hockey players secretly falling in love.
“Good question!” Cohen chimed in.
Weir praised the “impactful” drama and said he was so thankful for the show.
Cohen wasn’t having it. “So, did you ever date a closeted athlete?” he asked.
“So, I just completely talked around the question,” Weir replied.
“Yes, you did,” Cohen shot back.
Weir finally warmed up to revealing a bit.
“So I certainly had my moments and, you know, I have to say, like, I carry a Birkin,” he said of the pricey handbag. “So I like an opposite that doesn’t carry a Birkin … and that generally, like, goes a little closeted.”
“I’m not gonna give you any names,” he added.
“I don’t expect you to,” Cohen shot back.“I don’t want you to out anyone.”
