Dancing With The Stars: RESULTS!

I wanted to start off this results recap by giving our condolences to Jane Seymour, after the loss of her mother. The reason why Jane chose to be on DWTS was for her. She was in England this past Tuesday, but Tom announced she has decided to come back and continue participating in the competition.


Tuesday’s elimination came as quite a big surprise to me and a very stunned studio audience. It came down to Wayne and Albert and Albert Reed was the second to go, both he and partner looked on in shock as Tom said their name.

There were some incredibly funny parts, Jimmy came back with Guillermo, who “broke” his arm and can’t dance this season. The Count from Sesame Street, yes that’s right, the Count from Sesame Street is the man who counts the votes.

Stayed tuned in.... seriously things are just heating up!

Dancing With The Stars RECAP: 10/01/2007

This week DWTS was even more entertaining than opening week! Almost everyone brought their A game. Drew Lachey was back again this week co-hosting. (woohoo) Always good to see him. There were slips, tears and way too much of two Osmonds!

Mel B - Ouickstep
It was fun! She and Maks danced to Ah ha's "Take On Me." The judges seemed to like her, a 23.

"Fast paced, lots of energy" -Carrie

My favorite part came after she danced, when Drew was done interviewing them, he did his whole things with the phone number and texts, etc. This is what came next:

"So people give her what she wants, what she really really wants" - Drew (in reference to the Spice Girls "Wannabe")

Mark - Mambo
That guy man, he just really is having the best time! Judges gave him a 18.

"If there was a prize for hard work, dedication and a will to win, you'd win that prize." - Len
Wayne - Quickstep
Oh My! It was kind of sad to watch, he's a great entertainer but not a great dancer. The judges gave him a 15.
"You brought some of Las, Vegas to the Ballroom" -Carrie
Marie - Mambo
GOOD but.... she pulled her dress up like 4x, come on girl! She got a standing ovation(well deserved) Even Bruno got up and shimmied a little bit. The judges gave her a 24.
"Absolutely great" -Len
"You're one hot cougar" -Carrie
Albert - Quickstep
The judges gave him a 21.
"Wild kind of silly energy"- Carrie
"I've got a feeling your going to be the dark horse this season" - Len
Helio - Mambo
WOW!!! They both really moved on the floor, it looked like he has been dancing a long time when really he had a hard time moving his hips to start. The judges loved him too, 27.
"You were right on the beat you never lost it, even professionals would find that hard to do" -Bruno
"You're like the real deal man!" - Carrie
"You went into overdrive I'll tell you what, that was so good, very very well done"
- Len
Jennie - Quickstep
Ouch! It was just OK to watch, but right at the end her partner got caught in her dress and they both fell. Still judges gave them a 21.
"I think Ballroom is going to really suite you" - Carrie
Cameron - Mambo
Well it was just OK, in his video that airs right before the performance they showed him having a freaking breakdown, mostly b/c of his schedule. Judges gave him a 21.
"You looked like Superman but danced like Clark Kent"- Bruno
Floyd - Quickstep
He had a hard time getting rid of the boxing frame. I don't know, there is just something about him I don't like! Judges gave him a 21 also.
"Open up your chest a little bit more" - Carrie
"Very light and very fluffy" - Len
Jane - Mambo
It was a little bit slow but she entertains. Judges gave her a 21 (imagine that).
"You're playing to your strengths"- Carrie
"It was precise, exact and neat, an English mambo, prim and proper" -Len
Sabrina - Quickstep
Yet another WOW! it was so quick, that girl MOVES on the dance floor. Judges liked her too, a 26 again.
"Really quite amazing"- Carrie
"The no stress express" - Bruno
"That was blistering, you looked like a professional"- Len

Dancing With The Stars: RESULTS!

The results show, almost always my favorite night. I just love watching those professionals dance.
After 2 huge nights in the ballroom, it came down to MEN vs. WOMEN.



All the judges felt like this was the best start to any season, not only the dancing but also the entertainment. The couple that combined both of these qualities in “perhaps the best cha cha cha they have ever seen” were Sabrina and Mark..

They should use Kenny Maine more often, NOT for dancing, but for the funny bits. Oh and by the way where was Jimmy Kimmel? I missed his instructions on dancing!

Well obviously the first couple to leave was Josie and Alec. She was just BAD. I do feel sorry for Alec though, that’s 2 seasons in a row for him. I did feel like maybe they set Josie up a bit. All during “Testosterone Tuesday” when they talked about elimination, they showed Josie’s face. I mean come on, I know the girl is bad, but at least give her a fair shot.

OK that’s my rant on results, TUNE IN....Seriously I’ll be here every Monday and Tuesday keeping you up to date!

Dancing With The Stars: Testosterone Tues.

Nothing unusual to start Tuesday night. Cameron managed to stay on two feet walking down the stairs (you go boy!) He had the joy of starting the night for the men.

Cameron Mathison - Foxtrot
it was just eh to watch, the judges gave him a 21.
“Really good job for the first time out” -Len
“Good arm line” - Bruno
“Started off stiff” - Carrie

Floyd Mayweather - Cha Cha Cha
Well he got the 5x US National champ (Karina) but did she get another Billy Ray? Judges gave him an 18.
"Great Potential" - Len
"I'm gonna change your name from Mayweather to September Storm"- Bruno
"Fast, furious, and full out but lacking finesse" - Carrie

Helio Castroneves - Foxtrot
It was such a cute performance. Julianne is just awesome. The judges like them too, 25.
"You're a natural"- Carrie
"King of speed, now the king of charm" - Bruno
"Julianne you've continued where you left off last season"- Len

Albert Reed - Cha Cha Cha
Aye Dios Mios! Where do I start, umm ripping the shirt off, GREAT move. People might not have a freaking clue who this guy is, but they will! Judges gave him a 21.
"It gyrated, rotated and pulsated. It was like watching a stripper"- Len
"It was more other stuff than it was cha cha" -Carrie
"The crotch action was like a warp drive, I got a hernia just watching it"- Bruno

Mark Cuban - Foxtrot
The judges and I both noticed the guy just seems to be having a blast. A 21 was the score.
"Bouncing bionic billionaire"- Bruno
"Your more of a showman than I thought you would be" - Carrie
"Came out and gave a really first class performance" - Len

Wayne Newton - Cha Cha Cha
Poor Cheryl. She's had so many winners, but I guess it was probably time for her to get a middle man though. It's not that he's terrible, it's just that he is older and certainly not going to make it to the top. The judges gave him a 19, we shall see.
"So charming, but we need more hip action"- Carrie
"Great basic moves"- Len
"The sizzler from Sin City" - Bruno

So overall the Men, not so great. There were a lot of fun things, but I wasn't sitting there watching them in anticipation of what they might do next.

Dancing With The Stars: MONDAY

So when it comes to Dancing With The Stars, I already feel like an expert. Since I was little I've been in love with dancing. My sister and I used to be each other's partner, dancing around our kitchen and living room like it was a grand ballroom. So obviously this show is right up my alley. I should also mention J caught dancing fever too!!
As a new season of DWTS begins, I'll be here, your resident expert on all things Dance!


On Sunday it was announced that usual co-host for DWTS, Samantha Harris, had her baby. So ABC made the decision not to reveal the new co-host until Monday. (DARN THEM!) As the show opened with music playing, the camera panned the audience and focused on none other than season 2 winner Drew FREAKIN Lachey! The new contestants walked down the stairs for the first time with big smiles and one in particular was the most fun to watch: Cameron Mathison and his slip down the stairs.

So Monday night was ladies night and boy did those ladies shine!

Jennie Garth kicked things off.
The cha cha cha, getting a 21 from the judges.
"Soft and floppy free leg" - Len
"Yummie mummie" - Bruno
"Really really well" - Carrie


Josie Maran - Foxtrot
She was funny but really uncoordinated, earning only a 16 from the judges.
"Out of your element" - Carrie
"You're like a beautiful sailing ship stranded on a sand bank" - Bruno


Sabrina Bryan - cha cha cha
It was young, fun, with some hip hop flavor. Can I just say WOW! The highest season opening score yet, a 26 from the judges.
"Fierce" - Carrie
"Bewitching blond dynamo" - Bruno
"Surgical precision" - Len


Marie Osmond - Foxtrot
She tried to be a "sex kitten" (gross). Judges gave her a 21.
"Flashy yet sassy" - Bruno
"Lovely" - Len
"The foxtrot suits you" - Carrie


Mel B - cha cha cha
She's fun you know there is gonna be lots of entertainment between her and Max. Judges liked her too, 24.
"Better dancer than I thought" - Carrie
"I liked it a lot" - Len
"Feisty kitten, right on the money" - Bruno


Jane Seymour- Foxtrot
She screamed like a teenage girl when she saw her partner was Tony! Judges gave her a 24.
"Essence of elegance"- Bruno
"Gave me chills"- Carrie
"Elegance personified" - Len

Overall the ladies totally ROCKED Monday night. Can the boys live up to the hype?
