She's a dancer

Justin Timberlake said it best. 

Or in Zendaya's case its "she's a dancer"

Zendaya is on a DANCING SHOW. She was required to dance for her audition. She dances everyday on set. It's HER JOB!!!!!!!!

Any 10 that she wins on the show is rigged. 

All her dances tonight were not entertaining, at all. Her samba was a regular samba that I would have seen in week 5. Her cha cha relay was blah. Her freestyle was just plain boring. To make it worse she danced to Bieber, (boooooooooooooooooooooooo) like who does that. 

The real winner of Dancing with the Stars season 15 is Kellie Pickler. 

She has improved week after week and really challenged herself in every dance style. 

Her raw freestyle left everything on the table and was flat out flawless. 

Watch and see if you don't believe me.

Dancing Threesome's

A dancing threesome. Say it isn't so. 

The show started out with Tom Burgeron's hosting voice, "Welcome to Dancing with the Stars," and the show goes to a...commercial? Gotta love live TV! 

First round of dances are dedicated to the Veterans in honor of Veteran's Day. To be honest with you, the only first round dance that stood out to me was Melissa. I loved her dance. She had great technique and looked fantastic. Tony has really done some amazing things with her. You can tell that he has been held back with his previous partners (cough cough Kate Gosselin).  

Now it is onto my new obsession. Dancing Trio's. Obsessed. 

• Shawn, Derek, Mark: Samba- 10. This dance was AMAZE-BALLS! I don't care what Len bump on a log says. That dance was the perfect mix of tribal and samba. How in the world did Bruno, you can never do wrong, Tonioli agree with Len that there wasn't enough samba in their dance. Of all people, I thought that Carrie Ann would think that. Bruno obviously didn't take his super hyper dance medication before the show and that is why they were late starting the show. 
• Apolo, Karina, Sasha: Jive-9. Most guts of the night goes to Apolo for being the only celeb to choose a pro of the same sex to dance with on the trio. I didn't know what to expect. I did find myself comparing him to Sasha quite a bit but it really didn't matter because the dance was fantastic. 
• Kristie, Maks, Tristan: Paso doble-7. Angel wings? Really? I don't see how in the world they mattered to her dance. They were a huge distraction. I am a huge Kirstie fan. I quote It Takes Two like nobody's business, (don't judge) but it just wasn't good. 
• Kelly, Val, Louis: Jive-7. MOVE YOUR FEET. It is a jive for crying out loud. Did her feet weigh 30 pounds? I don't get it. I understand that it was hard choreography  I get it. Louis is the best choreographer on the show most likely. But YOU choose him. That dance was honestly one of the biggest disappointments of the night. 
• Gilles, Peta, Chelsie: Salsa- 9.5. He is so good. I love the way he moves. I do think that he lost timing a little bit but overall I wanted to be one of those girls fighting for a chance to dance with Gilles. Oh Gilles. Why? Why are you married? 
• Emmitt, Cheryl, Kym: Salsa- 9. The man can move. No doubt. I just didn't like the choreography  The dance really just showed off Cheryl and Kym. (Insert British accent here) Sorry.
• Melissa, Tony, Henry: Paso doble- 10. She can just naturally dance. She is such a happy go lucky woman, I was shocked to see her so aggressive. I loved it. She danced to my favorite Adele song of all time. Therefore, she was destined for a perfect night! 

Double elimination tomorrow night. Scary. Who do you think will go home? 

The fall must have gotten to Carrie Ann

Remember that glorious night when we saw a great dance and someone liked it so much they fell out of their chair? Then the next day they literally lost it on national TV?  I do. That happened to Carrie Ann almost 24 hours ago and it is obviously affecting her ability to judge effectively. 

I have never been so confused by judge's comments in my life. I thought Paula when on American Idol was bad but tonight was insane. It must be the fact that the judges are not used to judging on Tuesdays. Right? I mean it has to. 

• Melissa and Tony- 8: She injured her neck during group practice on Sunday night. Considering that I understand why she was very still in hold. But...and I say this with love Tony...it was confusing and had no flow. I don't get the hamster wheel and chemistry class set. Just because the song is Toxic doesn't mean you have to make the dance "toxic" to understand. I just didn't see it. 
• Shawn and Derek- 10: HOW? HOW ? HOW? Did Len and Carrie Ann not see what I saw during that dance? Did Carrie Ann hit her head a little too hard during that fall last night? That was breathtaking. The set. The fog. The costumes. Everything. I have never been so moved during a dance quite like that one. I was ready to pull a Teresa and flip a table or two after I heard what they said. I take back everything I have ever said about her and how I thought she shouldn't have been on all stars. They are the best. I just don't understand how they weren't paired together her first season.(Side note: I totally saw a pic of them on instagram and called the song that they were dancing to just after seeing their costumes. Just saying! Snaps for me!!!!)
• Apolo and Karina- 8: His original samba with Julianne was so much better and Apolo is too cute to be a pimp! That's all.
• Sabrina and Louis- 9: Didn't they look just so cute. Wear that to any Halloween costume contest and you will win in a heartbeat. I loved it. So cute. They lost a point for me because it wasn't very fluid. I just wanted it to be smooth like butter. While it was at times, the other times were a bit like rocky road ice cream. Enough of the food analogies. Someone get me chocolate! Stat

Team Freestyle: Gangnam Style (Kelly, Kristie, Emmitt, Gilles)

I have been looking forward to this dance ever since they announced the teams last week. Gangnam Style is basically the new theme song to my house ever since my mother heard it. Every time she heard it no matter where she was at, she wanted to let all us know that she heard it. Basically, we created a lovable Gangnam monster. So needless to say, everyone has been waiting patiently with our glasses and bow ties on to see Gilles Marini do Gangnam style. 

They nailed the first costumes with the glasses and wigs. I was so excited. Then they ripped the costumes off to reveal a hot mess of costumes to show where they are playing the song. (gym, club, sauna?) I was a fan of the suits more. I didn't get why they needed to rip off costumes in order to compete with the other team. They never ripped off their clothes to model the latest in club wear. So why did they feel that they needed to? The dance was not together at all. Top it all off when at the very end they messed up the original dance moves. If you are going to do the original famous dance then do the dance the correct way. 

END OF RANT.

I fell out of a chair....so Call me Maybe

I wonder who would be a better dancer, Romney or Obama? 

This week was this first week of 2 dances a week. Unfortunately, it was cut short to one hour because of this thing. I have never heard of it before but it's called an election/debate. Never heard of it. Wonder what it is all about? 

Pssssst who are we kidding. I can't wait until it is over. That way I can watch commercials in peace (insert sarcasm here).

We saw one team dance, and 4 individual dances...Guilty pleasure style. 

• Kelly and Val- 7.5: Her dance last week was good but not everything the judges thought it was. She is beautiful, but she can only do the sexy dances. To be honest, the only dance I liked of hers was the cha cha she did week 1. That paso was good but her shoulders are too stiff. This week was nothing different. Too much in the beginning (like Len said), horrible song UGH (no pun intended), and just didn't make sense. 
• Gilles and Peta- 10: And I...Will always love you I... Will always love you You...  Admit it. You totally belted out that song. The dance was so good women all over the world threw away their copies of 50 Shades of Grey and started watching Gilles' dance on repeat. It got to Carrie Ann so much she fell out of her seat just so Gilles would come to her side and rescue her. Doesn't she know that it only works like that in the movies? 
• Kristie and Maks- 7: Her best dance she has ever done is the cha cha to Forget You her original season. She looks horrible during all the rehearsal footage. That weave needs to go in the trash and be shredded forever and ever amen. Put on some makeup and look like a star.  
• Emmitt and Cheryl- 9.5: You are doing a dance to Barry Manilow's Copacabana and you are wearing that Cheryl?!?!? Did you not listen to the lyrics of the song? 

Her name was Lola, she was a showgirl

With yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there

She would merengue and do the cha-cha

Does that not mean you should be wearing colorful feathers, ruffles, flowers, etc? I was    honestly so bothered by her wardrobe; I didn't really pay attention to Emmitt. At least he looked good and didn't mind looking like a red skittle. 

Team Freestyle: Call Me Maybe (Shawn, Melissa, Sabrina, Apolo)

Don't the men look hot in the football gear? I knew I always loved that sport. I would also like to thank the producer who decided to grace my ear buds by not having the singers sing Call Me Maybe. I am forever eternally grateful. 

The dance was awesome. They are the freestyle team to beat. Gangnam Style should be awesome, no doubt, but Call Me Maybe had the best team. All the pros on their team are some of the best choreographers on the planet. Derek, Louis, Tony and Karina are unstoppable (Derek Louis especially) when it comes to dances that leave you breathless wondering how the heck they did that. Judges took the words out of my mouth after their dance. But the main reason America should be proud is because Len broke out the 10 paddle. I know. He isn't supposed to break out that bad boy until next week.

Now, I am really excited for tomorrow night to see Gilles shake it like a sexy lady...Gangnam Style. 

N'sync girl forever

Bristol Pain in my Butt 2.0 

Explain it to me....Someone...Anyone...How is she safe?!?!? HOW?

"I just want to get it over with"

Bristol Palin

Well, I just want you off of my TV screen forever and ever amen. How do you like them apples? 

Her dance last night was a train wreck disaster of hot mess at a cowboy rodeo. Broke hold, looked bored to tears and as Bruno said best a "mess." 

No way possible Joey Fatone deserved to say Bye Bye Bye before you did. 

I hope you have a lot of fun trying to find a creative bone in your body when you are the "creative director," you talented little reality star. I can't wait to see what you um...think of. 

Raise your glass tonight for a dancer who didn't deserve to go home yet. I LOVE YOU JOEY. 

N'sync girl forever <3. 

It's the Final Showdown!

This has probably been the least impressive finals I have seen in 12 seasons. Here is why…

• Chelsea and Mark: Samba was just boring. I am so tired of seeing her in the fringe pants. Not only are they hideous, they are not flattering to anyone no matter how skinny you are. The music was horrible and it looked like a dance that would get an 8 half way through the competition. The fact that this dance got 10's baffles me. I don’t even know if I should even start talking about that mess also known as her freestyle. 1) Music was horrible and made no connection to her dance 2) She lost her footing in various spots going uncalled for 3) She had timing issues getting in and out of her lifts UNNOTICED by the judges. See where I am going with all of this.
• Kirstie and Maks: I thought there first dance was ok. They should have done another dance like the Tango or Paso (they still were robbed of 10s for that dance). I don’t get how you can call out her dance for lift problems when you didn’t for the others. BE CONSISTENT in your judging. Nothing bothers me more than that.  She is 60 years old competing with people half her age in a UNITARD none the less. Give the woman credit and a score she deserves.
• Hines and Kym: Honestly they had the best dances of the night. The Quickstep was finals worthy with lots of personality and energy. In my opinion they had an easier dance to work with just based on music alone for both dances. Now their freestyle was different and to be honest I liked it. I give him a lot of credit for doing it. I love the music and the theme.

So after seeing the dances just based on tonight, I think that Hines won. He simply had the best dances and had the least amount of problems.

Tomorrow they still have one more dance. I hope that they choose the right dance for them to do again because the viewers can’t pull them through anymore.

I guess we will all find out tomorrow!

P.S. Sara Evans is a final performance?!?!?! REALLY!?!?!?!

Dancing with the Stars: In an Instant

I honestly thought that tonight’s round of dancing was just blah. Normally at least one dance gets me going whether it’s good or bad. But no one did tonight. I was kind of disappointed. Hard to believe.  This season really has been off and on with me. I guess it is fair to say that Dancing with the Stars is nothing without Derek Hough. It never really hit me until now. But it’s true. The Dances haven’t been overall that impressive or shall I say Emmy worthy.

Individual Dance:

• Chelsea and Mark- I am so glad to FINALLY hear Mark say that he wanted to showcase Chelsea. It’s about time. I thought that it was a great dance but something just bothers me about her dancing. I really started to get annoyed with how fast she moves her arms to get to the next step. Maybe that has been what has always bothered be?!?!
• Hines and Kym- Great choreography. I think that could be my favorite foxtrot I have seen this season. I was smiling watching it. The little part with the bench was great and made me love his smile even more.
• Romeo and Chelsie- I love how their song was to Britney Spears because when I saw her costume, I immediately burst out into “Oops I did it again.” Don’t judge. Let’s get onto the dance. Honestly I didn’t see anything special about that dance besides the lighting. He had the intensity and all but I just didn’t see what the judges saw tonight.  Sorry
• Ralph and Karina- First off, I just need to point out the obvious. The blush and eyeliner was a little too much. If I just happened to watch the dance without knowing everything beforehand, I would have never known that he was hurt. Especially knowing how long they had to practice due to his injury, incredible.
• Kirstie and Maks- BEST DANCE of the individual dances. I wanted for them to dance longer. She has gotten so much better since week 1. So good! I can’t say enough.  

Instant dance is back…dun Dun DUN!  I loved the instant dance last season. So the dancers of this season had a lot to live up to.  I was unimpressed. Kyle’s dance was perfection last season.  And I don’t feel like anyone topped his.

Instant Dance:

• Chelsea and Mark- Remember what he said about showcasing Chelsea last dance? Ya it was short lived. I have to 200% agree with Carrie Ann. I thought it was off with the music. She did have to deal with that jump start so I will give her credit on that. But parts of the dance seemed rushed like maybe even she over danced parts of it. Because her facial expressions seemed overdone for the dance.  They were all over place.
• Hines and Kym- I thought he did a great job. Considering that the jive was his instant dance, I think he did a good job. During the middle of the dance I thought he got off of the beat but he got right back on track.
• Romeo and Chelsie- They started off good and lost something. I thought the beginning was good with lots of tricks. Parts of the dance that were good. But I guess in their minutes leading up to the dance they never really figured out how to connect each move to the next. I think that is why they had trouble towards the end.
• Ralph and Karina- This really was an Instant dance, literally. It was Ralph standing and doing what he could and Karina doing a lot of the moves. But the fact that it was done on the spot, day of; you have to give him a lot of credit.
• Kirstie and Maks- Gotta say that she looks fantastic tonight. Her dancing was OK and very basic. I think it could have used a little “spice” but the song that they chose was very simple; so it did fit the music. I think that Maks may have choreographed it to a faster beat but when they got their music they had to slow the dance down. That was why it was almost too simple.

Next week we are onto the semi finals. It’s Hard to believe that the show is almost over. Who do you hope gets the chance to go to the semi finals?
