Mya broke a glass and cut her hand, hopefully it won't be a problem

"Opening Number"
Posted by vince3 on 09-22-09 at 08:02 PM
She's a Lady

All the female pros this time: Cheryl, Anna T, Karina, Lacey, Anna D, Kym, Edyta, and Chelsie

"RE: Opening Number"
Posted by whimsey on 09-22-09 at 08:28 PM
Maks said in an interview after his Laila Ali season: "the challenge of the lady stars is the ladies don't perform against the male celebs, they compete against the female pros. And the voters are primarily women and tweens." Unfortunately, true.
"BIG Intro"
Posted by vince3 on 09-22-09 at 08:05 PM
Take 2.

Let's see if they can keep it together for the entire length this time........not really.

Looks like they put the guys in suits for sitting in the crowd, and the girl's outfits are more for dancing, including Joanna's banana-esque outfit.......

"RE: BIG Intro"
Posted by whimsey on 09-22-09 at 08:07 PM
I wonder if the pros started off with Maks and Macy Gray, which would have been delightfully explosive.
"Debi and Maksim"
Posted by vince3 on 09-22-09 at 08:09 PM
She actually does have some dancing experience..... in an 80's dancing show, Grafiti Rock...... She's also been in Goodfellas and Entourage. Maksim's the Bad Boy of the Ballroom......

He thinks he's got the perfect partner this year except for one problem: She's got a short attention span..... ooh, shiny!

Dancing Salsa to traditional Salsa music.

"RE: Debi and Maksim"
Posted by vince3 on 09-22-09 at 08:13 PM
She's got potential, but her feet were flat, and her hips weren't going too well.... but Bruno loves how she shook her bazooms.......

Scores: 6~5~5 for a total for 16

"RE: Debi and Maksim"
Posted by qwertypie on 09-22-09 at 11:23 PM
YET ANOTHER QWERTY RANT:

Why oh Why do they put the celeb women in such high heels? It would have been so much easy for balance and getting the hip action if her heels were lower and she could actually bend and straighten her knees. GAH!

"RE: Debi and Maksim"
Posted by whimsey on 09-22-09 at 08:18 PM
Oh honey, I had such hopes. That's the problem wit going first, fear. Now I know why they gave her Maks.
"Melissa and Mark"
Posted by vince3 on 09-22-09 at 08:19 PM
Clarissa and Sabrina finally grew up, got married and had two kids.....

Mark is a 2-time former and your Defending Dancing Champion!

Melissa's worried about falling on her face dancing the Viennese Waltz.......

Dancing the Viennese Waltz to "This is the Time of My Life"?

"RE: Melissa and Mark"
Posted by vince3 on 09-22-09 at 08:23 PM
Sounds like she has the potential but didn't quite deliver.....

They said that the double elimination will start the show tomorrow......

Scores: 6~6~6 for a total of 18

"RE: Melissa and Mark"
Posted by whimsey on 09-22-09 at 08:24 PM
Again, fear. I'm sure she will get better, but the judges were right.
"Mya and Dmitry"
Posted by vince3 on 09-22-09 at 08:30 PM
Mya's got some dancing skills, but it's in tap dancing....

Practice with Dmitry was an adventure and a half.......

Dancing the Viennese Waltz to *shrug*.... "Vision of Love"?

"RE: Mya and Dmitry"
Posted by whimsey on 09-22-09 at 08:33 PM
Now we're talking. Dmitry's choreography highlighted Mya's strength and it went very well. Great team.

Judge Fight!!!!!!!! Len is being crankypants because they spent too much time apart from each other...... but Bruno's arguing that the dancing was magnificent! No time for Carrie Ann, who looked aghast at Len.

Scores: 8~5~8 for a total of 21

"RE: Mya and Dmitry"
Posted by Snidget on 09-22-09 at 08:37 PM
At least HK isn't the only place with fights tonight.

I'll have to not fast forward through the judges for that one.

"Kathy and Tony"
Posted by vince3 on 09-22-09 at 08:41 PM
She's a former Sport's Illustrated swimsuit model and now she's the CEO and Chief Designer of her own marketing firm.....

Kathy did an aerobic class years ago and was asked to leave, that's how bad her co-ordination is..... yikes.

Dancing Salsa to what seems more like Mambo music

"RE: Kathy and Tony"
Posted by vince3 on 09-22-09 at 08:44 PM
The potential was there, but she was too tight to sell the Salsa... at least they get rid of the band intro early enough.....

Scores: 6~5~5 for a total of 16

"RE: Kathy and Tony"
Posted by whimsey on 09-22-09 at 08:50 PM
Samantha: Super models have not had much luck making it past the first rounds, but for Brooke Burke, how you you feel?

Kathy: I was never that "super" so it doesn't apply..... tell it, girl, tell it!!

then it went downhill. And crashed, badly.

I think the judges number are a reflection of her statement after that. The voting numbers should blow up.

"Natalie and Alec"
Posted by vince3 on 09-22-09 at 08:53 PM
She's one of the strong American swim team, and he's the first ever Pro champion. Together, THEY FIGHT CRIME! (Don't ask.)

She's got 11 Olympic medals, 6 at Beijing. Alec's trying to get her to not have such a serious face when dancing...... and trying to get her lines smoother.......

Dancing Salsa to "Show Me"?

Her body is amazing. Wardrobe must be in fits over her arms and trunk (midsection, not bum, she's kinda square shaped). Natalie is a wild card. My unofficial PTTE is Mark Dacascos and Natalie in the final 4.

Another judge fight because Bruno and Carrie Ann see her as a diamond in the rough, while Len is complaining about the lack of sexyness in tonight's Salsa dancing.....

Scores: 7~6~6 for a total of 19

"RE: Natalie and Alec"
Posted by CTgirl on 09-24-09 at 05:37 PM
I LMAO at Natalie doing shoulder rolls like she was about ready to get into the pool to race while she was waiting to go on stage.

I liked her though and hope she develops as a dancer.

"Macy and Jonathan"
Posted by vince3 on 09-22-09 at 09:04 PM
Her dancing experience is limited to slightly moving to the music..... Macy's eccentricities are not helping matters, and neither is her having to going on a European tour after only 1 week of practice!

"Joanna and Derek"
Posted by vince3 on 09-22-09 at 09:17 PM
She's been a swimsuit model and she did have dance classes as a kid, until her parents couldn't afford it anymore.... so this is a dream come true.....

He's rough, he's tough, he's Derek Hough (his quote, not mine....)

Maybe some of the rough side that berated the holy heck out of T.O. will come out sometime during this season.......

Dancing Salsa to..... *shrug* I dunno.

"RE: Joanna and Derek"
Posted by vince3 on 09-22-09 at 09:19 PM
The judges need to be fanned due to the heat from that dance.....

This should be the leading score going into the relay.

Scores: 8~8~8 for a total of 24

"RE: Joanna and Derek"

Wow, Samantha insulted all of the non-Derek partners with her comments.
"Kelly and Louis"
Posted by vince3 on 09-22-09 at 09:26 PM
Bleeper has to batten down the hatches for Kelly.....

Louis went up to her house and met Ozzy first...... KELLY!!!!

Louis has to turn the tomboy/rocker's daughter into a princess...... good luck.

There was a definite lift on the giant swings. Sharon was in tears, and Kelly ran over to hug both Sharon and Ozzy who're in the front row.

Len declares it the best Viennese Waltz of the night.

Scores: 7~8~8 for a total of 23, and only off of the lead because of the lift penalty.....

It was nice to see her really give this a good go and do so well with it. The moment with Mom and Dad was cool too.

I think the women did better than the men. Too bad 2 men couldn't go home instead of the worst female and the worst male.

My fave part of the evening was watching the pouty face on Donny O everytime one of the women did well and got alot of praise. He was not liking it at all.
