Dancing With the Stars Week One

I have been feeling deprived of dance so I was glad that Dancing with the Stars is back on! Sorry for the delay...I don't seem to have much free time lately.

Dance 1: Chelsea Kane and Mark Ballas: Foxtrot
First of all I have NO idea who this chick is. I guess she is on the Disney Channel, but she must not be on anything that Lauren watches. She is drop dead gorgeous and has a very nice figure and she is young = all plusses! She sorta reminds me of Kellie Pickler. She said that she has never danced and I call bull crap on that..she is way too good to never have danced. It was a good way to start the show. I always love Mark's choreography. Their score = 21

Dance 2: Wendy Williams and Tony Dovolani: Cha Cha
I have never seen Wendy's talk show but I do see her being made fun of regularly on "The Soup". She has humungo boobs with probably makes it hard to dance. It was a little weird to see her wipe her tears with her hair...um eww. On her show she seems to have a ton of energy..but she was a littl lackluster in the energy department. I had expected a lot more from her. The judges had the same thoughts. I love Tony though, he is such a nice guy and he really tries to use his Star's strengths. I would love to see him win one of these days...it probably won't be with Wendy though-SORRY TONY! Their score = 14

Dance 3: Hines Ward and Kym Johnston: Cha Cha
What kind of name is "Hines"? I wonder if he got teased as a kid. I don't follow sports so I didn't know this guy..but I always love it when a jock dances. He seems like a nice guy. I was impressed by him though, the guy had some rythym and he actually seemed to be having fun. I like Kym a lot too, and I am glad that she won with Donny Osmond-she definitely deserved it! They got decent reviews from the judges. I always love it when Bruno stands up and dances, and I love Len's reaction to his dancing-covering his face. Too funny! Their score = 21

Dance 4: Petra Nemcova and Dimitry Chaplin: Foxtrot
Another Star that I wasn't familiar with...but I always love one of my "So You Think You Can Dance Alums" GO DIMITRY so I was hoping she would be good. He always has awesome choreography. They are both Russian I think so I hope to hear them speak Russian to each other. I felt for her story about her being a Tsunami survivor-she seems very nice and is tall and beautiful and looks very nice with Dimitry. She seems graceful but is lacking a little bit of power. Their score = 18

Dance 5: Romeo and Chelsea Hightower: Cha Cha
Okay, I never knew that he was gonna be on Season 2 and that his dad had filled out for him. Chelsea is another SYTYCD alum and I LOVE HER! He is trusting her so that is good. I am happy that she actually got a good dancer-maybe she will win it this year!! He will just need to extend his movements, improve his posture-open up his chest and he could be a contender because he has the performance factor-much better than his father and his infamous "2"s. Did they kiss at the end? WHAT? I always wonder if there is romance between the competitors!Their score = 19

Dance 6: Sugar Ray Leonard and Anna Trebunskay: Foxtrot
He is obviously a boxing legend..it was interesting to see him struggle so much with dance. He was trying soo hard and was being so hard on himself. I thought he would be getting it a little bit better than he was. He is another one that needs to put his shoulders down and open it up a little bit. He seemed to enjoy it and I always love that. He had lots of energy and I love that too. Bruno called him a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle...that made me laugh. Their score = 17

Dance 7: Kendra Wilksonson and Louis Van Amstel: Cha Cha
I love Kendra-she so cute and has such a cute figure and OH HOW I love her laugh. It is funny how she thinks of herself as a tomboy yet she can be so sexy. I laughed when Louis told her she should be a stripper and she said she used to be. I really like Louis-he is another one that is deserving of the mirrorball trophy! I loved their song. She is very sexy-I just think she needs a bit bigger movements and little bit more control but she is a great performer and you could tell she was having fun. I think she has a ton of potential and I can't wait to see how far she will go. Her ex-boyfriend, Hef was there, that was a bit weird. Their score = 18

Dance 8: Ralph Macchio and Karina Smirnoff: Foxtrot
The Karate Kid! He still looks the same! Hard to believe that the movie came out 28 years ago! Matt and I were both shocked that he said he was almost 50! I kept thinking about the movie the Outsiders and all the cool guys in that movie. I like Karina and had hoped that her and Maks' relationship woulda worked out. I couldn't believe how good he was!!!! I think that was the shocker of the night! He was SOO graceful! I don't know what he does to stay in such good shape-whatever it is, I think it helped him! WOO HOO! I like Karina and she has gotten some pretty sketchy partners..she may actually have a chance with Ralph. Yippee. Their scores = 24 Karina was jumping up and down she was so excited!

Dance 9: Chris Jericho and Cheryl Burke: Cha Cha
I don't think that there has ever been a male wrestler on the show. I wasn't expecting much. He was much better than I thought. Cheryl although a multiple winner, is not my favorite dancer. I know that she has gone through a lot in her life-she just sorta bugs me...she thinks she is hot stuff. She is a good dancer and all and she does well with whatever partner she gets, and I think she usually gets a good partner. He had a lot of fun. Their scores = 19

Dance 10: Steve Catherwood and Lacey Schwimmer: Foxtrot
Okay, I don't really know this dude either-but he seems funny and cute. Lacey is one of my favorites from So You Think You Can Dance (but girlfriend needs to color her hair-I don't know what sort of look she is going for). She always has great choreography and it was good this time...he is just really bad. He gets an A for effort...but his lines were not quite right. I am a little worried about her this round with this guy, I wish she woulda gotten Chris Jericho-she would have had a better chance! Their score = 13 YIKES!

Dance 11: Kirstie Alley and Makism Chmerkovski: Cha Cha
I was so excited to see her. She is seriously FUNNY and very charismatic. I can't believe that she is 60. Maksim was actually being funny TOO and oh boy he is so cute I LOVE to watch him dance and shake his cute butt and hips especially doing the Cha Cha...oh my! And here is another suprise...SHE IS A GOOD DANCER and a GREAT PERFORMER! Maks has never won the trophy although he should have with Mel B. He may have a fighting chance! I can't wait to see what she will do. Cheering in the audience was Brandi (his last season's partner) and Kelley Preston! Their score = 23 and Maks was way excited. She is so pretty..she reminds me of my friend Jami..pretty eyes, pretty hair and high eyebrows.


My first impressions:
* No "Houghs" this year. BOO. That makes me sad. But I am happy to have 3 SYTYCD alums and cute Maks too.
* I do like how the Stars get two weeks of dancing efore they are eliminated, that way everyone gets a fair chance.
* Kristie Alley, Ralph Macchio, and Kendra are my first show favorites

More blogging to come, when I get a sec.

Glee March 15 2011

Is it just me...or did I spot Lauren and Comfort from So You Think You Can Dance on this episode of Glee?! On Sue Sylvester's team..... I couldn't get too good of a peek..but maybe. Anyone else see it?

*PS...so great to FINALLY see Curt get his first kiss!*
