Tag Archives: Dancing with the Stars

Ah! The team dance! This is one of my favorite nights on Dancing with the Stars because I love to see the dynamics between the celebrities as they practice and compete together. Remember when all the girl pros wanted to kill Susan Lucci a few seasons ago? Remember the Single Ladies Mambo (see video above)? The team Cha-cha-cha (to Madonna and Gaga!) promises a lot of fun!

Erin Andrews, Quickstep: Len did not like Erin’s Samba last week, and Maks promises a proper Quickstep this week. And he’s also promising to take his pants off. Erin’s not having it. I’m a little sick and tired of them fighting. I need something else from this couple. Hmmm, they took their clothes off, but had other ones on. How cheeky! But the stripping has messed Erin up and she lost her timing. She’s definitely quick-stepping, but the hold and what-not was weird. Ugh, Len liked it. Called it her best dance…I need to take some classes on what these different dances are. It’s times like these I think this show is rigged.
Score: 9, 9, 9

I really hate Brooke’s necklace.

Tonight, the celebrities take on the Argentine Tango or the Samba AND a Swing Dance marathon. Since the last Mambo marathon was so successful, I cannot wait for the Swing one! All of the dancers in the competition now are truly talented, and could win, so this season of Dancing with the Stars just. got. interesting! And Pam Anderson is loving her new brown ‘do. Let’s get this going!

Go Evan, go Evan!

Jake Pavelka, Samba: I think the thing I find most endearing about Jake is that he refuses to wear his shirt. Looking for the ladies’ vote there Jake? But, he’s truly adorable, and putting a lot of personality in his dances. The Samba always confuses me, and I’ve never seen anyone, save Melissa Rycroft, do a good one. So Jake’s was a little underwhelming. After a little trip-up, which he controlled, Bruno said he “didn’t wiggle correctly.”
Score: 7, 7, 7

Evan Lysacek, Samba: I love Evan. And I love Evan and Anna. I really think he’s a frontrunner, and I’m gonna call it now that he wins. Hmmm, Anna tried to kill him by flipping his massive body over her tiny, little itty-bitty back, no big deal. He’s alright. Shake those hips Evan! He’s another one that doesn’t like to wear a shirt. I think Bruno is going to love this. Oh man, was I wrong. I’m just blinded by my favorite. Carrie Ann said he “lost the battle with the Samba.” Booo Carrie Ann! The Samba’s just too hard!
Score: 7, 7, 7
