Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir are giving off some serious 'Hunger Games' vibes at the Olympics
The 2018 Winter Olympics have arrived and the spotlight isn't only on the athletes.
The world is keeping a close eye on the skills, performance, and fashion of announcers, too, and on day one of competitions when people wanted a hot new Olympics meme Johnny Weir and Tara Lipinski volunteered as tribute.
The professional figured skaters showed up looking like announcers for The Hunger Games and Twitter was shook.

The two got their hair did and busted out their best maroon sequins numbers for the big night. It was straight up Caesar Flickerman and Effie Trinket in that arena.

Trying to watch the figure skating but the commentators had me confused that our country joined the Hunger Games. #Olympics

Johnny Weir is dressed perfectly for his audition to replace Stanley Tucci in the eventual Hunger Games remakes. #Olympics

Not sure if Johnny Weir is a commentator for #Olympics figure skating or the next Hunger Games movie. Lookout Caesar Flickman, he's gunning for your job. pic.twitter.com/ttiee1uVAV

Johnny Weir looks like he belongs in the Capital in the Hunger Games. He should be hanging out with Caesar Flickerman asking questions to the tributes. #Olympics
