Week 2--Let the DRAMA begin.

Welcome back friends and fans--DWTS is officially back with all the crazy drama and antics of any good reality TV.

As always I'll begin with the Intro and general observations before moving right into the dancing.

Notice how after all the couples come down the grand stair case (which I see the execs stopped polishing...no more slips, falls or close calls--DARN) they all line up and then the camera pans through all of them and they each give that cheesy smile, wink, thumbs up, "hi mom" or puckering of the lips---my dear sweet--ever confident and professional Max did not participate. It only goes to show he's there strictly for the most serious of reasons and he will not waste time on the silly games all those others play. --Bravo, my sweet professional...Bravo!

During that same little pan across all contestants I couldn't help but be beyond irritated at Pam Anderson trying to pull off the innocent bit. Oh give it up already---the words Innocent Pam--go against all that is natural in this world.

Brooke looked stinking hot! Seriously, have we ever seen the female sidekick sporting a short cocktail dress?? I don't think so. Yeah, so I hate her a little but I guess if I were paid to look good---I'd somehow find the motivation.

Final comment on the intro---the fact that good ole' Lenny's shirt and pocketchief (whatever that dealy is called--I'm an immigrant so sue me!) clashed beyond words drove me nuts all night. I mean really wardrobe folks--how difficult is it to use the same fabric swatch to make that little ensemble coordinate. Sheesh.

Now on to the dancing...
1. Shannen and Mark-
She definitely did better than last week, but my goodness that hair and those teeth are quite the distraction. Her bangs hanging below her eyes were driving me bonkers. I'm sure it would be helpful to be able to see while dancing! Geez...way to put all the pressure on your partner in leading. It's one thing to lead an inexperienced dancer and it's another to lead an inexperienced dancer with her eyes SHUT! Good grief woman---get a trim--or a least bobby-pin. I noticed the resident bad girl in the 90210 zip code is back and better than ever. Ease up Brenda Walsh...you're not fighting Kelly for Dylan okay? Just listen to Mark and cut the attitude. I do need to mention that I really am over the cast members running out into the audience and giving smooches and hugs to the loved ones---except when Shannen did it. It makes me happy to see her dad so excited to see her out there. Why is she any different than the other fools that run out there?---not sure...but for now I will allow it. NEXT...

2. Hotty couple Aiden and Edyta-
First off, what the heck was Edyta wearing in rehearsals? It was this poncho meets life vest meets Christmas tree skirt. Aye yay yay---that girl and her accent and clothes. Some things are just too good to change. I personally think the guy is not a bad dancer but for some strange reason they think he's awful. I'm a tad annoyed by that. He is not as bad as they make him sound. Comparing him to Kenny Main??? Really? I mean how many dudes can keep dancing after getting two elbows to the head while dancing. Not many...I guarantee it. I noticed our favorite lift police judge has had a change of heart about him. I think she's interested in a relationship and is trying to get into his good graces. Keep an eye out. It's pretty clear to me she wants him. I mean...really who else is there? We don't have any youngins' on the show this season...so, as she should, she's keeping an eye out for the hot one.

3. Evan and Ana---who from now on will be Evana
What is wrong with this dude? Too many falls on the ice or something cause I am practically falling asleep as he talks. MONOTONE!!!! I get the whole dry sense of humor thing...but this goes beyond that too much. Yes, I'll admit-- he's good, but seriously--he's already used to the crazy costumes and looking a little feminine (don't get all crazy on me...I'm merely saying no male ice dancer/skater looks masculine while performing--sorry)-so getting him to really get into dancing is not too far of a stretch. His comment to Brooke about it's nice to work with someone and feel like you're a team rather than being alone was sweet and endearing so 1 point for that. I also want to comment on Brooke's comment about being able to eat cheesecakes...why was Ana so freaking confused about that? Hey there my little ruskie...do they not have dessert in Russia? Oh that's right...you're just not allowed to eat it. And come to think of it...Brooke probably has never had a piece of cheesecake in her life...so just shut up Brooke...

4. Niecey and Louie--
It's clear, Louie's petrified of her. I mean there was nothing he could say to her without her getting all crazy on him. OOOOO snap...don't mess with the Diva cause she'll Reno 911 all over your girlie butt. Seriously, did they mix up their costumes cause I could have sworn I saw Louie prancing like a woman throughout the dance. You can't wear a pink suit and prance like that...you just can't! I really wish Niecey would stop the lip-syncing...however, maybe she's good a singing and could possibly take the place of our annoying resident back up singer (notice I haven't mentioned much about her this season...cause I just can't muster up enough strength to do it--but just know...I am suffering in silence every time they show that woman!) Back to her dancing, let's be honest folks...the judges were way too easy on her cause they're afraid of her, too. And really Carrie Ann---the whole did I spot a lift business was just stupid. I don't think it's physically possible for Louie to lift anyone.

5. Jake and Chelsie-
First off...your jeans are too tight. The 80's called and want them back! Second, I think it's hysterical how tough he gets with a teenager. "I'm not asking you to change the dance, I'm telling you..." Oh okay, wimp...I'll get right on it! Third, the high water pants suited his DORK persona perfectly and FINALLY---It literally made me laugh out loud when Chelsie emphasized that their relationship is like brother and sister--Get it Jake? She's not interested in a rose okay? Good girl Chels...keep reminding him.

6. Buzzzzzzzzzzzzzz---
Yeah that's right! I said it...He put me to sleep! I'm sorry. I know that's harsh but come on...what is he doing there? He makes Ashly make a dancing steps map? Oh boy. The music selections for these people crack me up. "Fly me to the Moon"--too funny. I know I'm harsh on gramps but when those judges lay into him, I want to rip their heads off. Give the guy a break. Yes, Carrie Ann, Buzz was dancing like he was afraid. He was afraid he would break a hip. And Bruno, just chill out a little okay. No need to take your critiquing so far. After the performance, the comment made by Brooke about showing his precious Lois his dance moves was great! Hey there Brookster...what's that old saying...There may be snow on the roof but there is still a fire burning in the furnace. Go get 'em tiger!

7. Nicole and Derrick-
She was great but it's not surprise. It's like me getting an A in Romanian class. I already speak the language--so really...an A is nothing to get so excited about! I don't think she was perfect and received two 10's but for some reason Bruno and Carrie Ann are just wild about her. Bruno must want front row seats to her next concert or something. Oh and Brooke enough about your dancing days with Derrick. It's getting old.

8. Maks and Erin-
I love it when Maks gets all demanding and serious! Music to my ears to hear him say, "LISTEN TO ME! ENOUGH!!!" So hot. Word on the street is he and Erin are an item. Surprise surprise Maks is dating his dance partner. My man is quite the little playa isn't he? I could have done without the whole neck nuzzle fake make out at the end of the dance. Break my heart a little more why don't you? Then apparently, Erin had a little "nip slip" and my dear sweet Maksy had to be the one to tell her. GRRRRRR. I did not care for their little lovers banter about him not having a bicep--you just shut it. How dare you...next you'll say he doesn't have a bottom...Also, I caught our little Erin in a lie--night one she said she requested Tony---now she says she requested Maks cause he's such a great teacher that pushes his students. LIAR!!! So which is it? Tony or Maks??? hmmm?? And Tom..don't ever comment on Maks's ego. EVER!

9. Pam and Damien-
I'm sooooo over all of her sexual innuendos. What's wrong with being a normal woman in her 40's? Why this constant need to be a sex symbol? It's over the top. I'm happy to report that she did much better than last week---probably cause she wasn't drunk or high. I actually can't believe I'm gonna say this but elegance really suits her. She should try it once in a while. OKAY and now for my favorite part of the whole season...Did Len really need to use the word Tittybating..tittyfacing...what the heck? Why? Why would that word come to mind? Gee I wonder! Again, back stage she does the whole innocent act and I was just over it! OVER IT!

10. 85 and Cheryl-
I don't' think it's fair to give him less points because his derriere sticks out. I mean...that's the way the dude is built. He can't change that! My recommendation for 85 is a little less flirting and a lot more practicing! Perhaps the judges wouldn't be so hard on you if you put in more effort to dancing and not wooing Cheryl. Oh and Carrie Ann...who are you kidding...what do you possibly know about football? Please stop comparing football to dancing okay?

11. Finally Kate and Tony-
Whoa FIREWORKS!!! I understand they were both frustrated with one another but I have to say I was a tad surprised at Tony walking out like that. They really must have left out a lot of the annoyances she must have caused. There were so many good parts about their whole bit that I'm not quite sure where to begin---how about with Kate's shocking..."I don't' get it"----You don't get it? Really? Watch any of the first 5 seasons of your show and you'll get it! How about the zings she threw Jon's way..."Thank you for coming back, Tony...a lot of people quit on me in my life"--oooo ruthless! Let's keep reminding America what a victim you are! A victim who lives in a million dollar home for free! Then the dancing begins and whoa...speechless. She was awful! She looked so uncomfortable, scared, unsure...stiff...bad bad bad! When Bruno said, that the song, "I'm still standing (which again, is such a clever selection for Kate---ABC's on a roll) reminds me of dancing with Elton John"...oh dear...what a visual! Then when she went for her scores...she managed to get in one more zing and pity vote from the fans. "The one thing I learned was that Tony and I are not quitters!" Enough already, I'm sure Jon's not watching the show!

Well guys...that about wraps up another week of DWTS. Never a dull moment. Until next time--

Keep dancing,
Len-da Isa-ba

Season 10 PREMIERE!!!!

Hello my dancing fanatics! I know you all know how much I longed for this season to begin. ABC is good...very good---they got Len-da Isa-ba back and ready for some major critiquing!

THE CHANGES

Let's begin by mentioning some of the many changes we saw last night.

The most obvious was the new co-host Brooke Burke. I have to admit I had major doubts about her ability. I thought for sure she'd drive me up a wall and I am happy to report, I was happily surprised! She was excellent. Short, sweet, to the point and very natural up there. The chemistry between her and Tom was just right and you can tell she wasn't trying to hard. She asked good questions that actually made sense and then...wait it for folks...she actually allowed the stars and dancers to respond!!! (Can you imagine such a concept???) In fact, not only did she wait for responses from the group but when she did accidentally cut some one off, she apologized and said, "Please continue." Again...based on that alone, she's got my support. Good choice on Brooke.

Another change--the intro where they announce the dancers was very impressive. The previous intro looked so cheesy. There was this flashing ray of light and the contestants seemed to be photo shopped in---this time, it looked much more professional.

You might also have noticed the set looked a little different with the green room being on the main dance floor rather back stage. Not sure I see why that was necessary but okay...whatever.

The scoring was way high tech listing the judges names and then their very predictable scores.

But as always...with changes comes some things that remain very much the same--

Pam looks like a drunken mess, Kate has that same attitude and moodiness I remember so well from her show, Jake's still a crying dork, Edyta still wears the most insane costumes, and I still can't understand Bruno! These constants in life are why we all tune in to DWTS...so by all means keep some things the same---too much change would rock my world.

Now on to the actual dancing---

1. Ochocinco and Cheryl---Really? Are you freaking kidding me? You made up your last name based on your jersey number? Good grief! This isn't a recording studio and you're not a rapper! I say that because only rappers give themselves the crazy clever names I love so much---you know the classics like---"Flo-Rida" pronounced (Flow Ride-uh) because he lives in Florida---or my all time favorite...Ludacris...whose name is Chris. These men can pull off that craziness because they live in world of RAP---you Mr. 85 do not...so cut that crap out. However, he was a decent dancer--so I'll move on. And I must mention that I was happy to see Cheryl sporting something other than her black and red jump suit. In fact, she looked quite good last night.

2. Shannen and Mark---Holy moly was she wearing Buzz's dentures??? Those teeth looked horrible last night. Come on Brenda Walsh...get some chompers that fit your mouth! I did think it was adorable that her dad asked her to do the show (I choose to believe that story) and he was so cute in the audience watching his girl and her teeth. She looked really nervous but I think she'll get better as the weeks pass.

3. My hottness Mr. Maks and Erin--Okay admit it...how many of you thought Erin was going to say, " My biggest fear is....having another stalker!" I sure did. But no, apparently her greatest fear is getting up and dancing (how original!) Maks had some good lines last night...like when he said, "The only level I know to work at is the....MAX!" So freaking clever! I also loved, "My only pleasure in life is to bitch at people and you're taking that away!"---loved it! I know you all say I'm biased but he truly is the best male dancer on that show. He is sooo fun to watch and not just for the obvious reasons--like watching his behind! I'll stop there cause last night my hubby was not pleased with my giddiness when he came on screen---nope nope...not one bit. I am not the biggest fan of Erin but I do love how competitive she is! She is just what Maks needs---however when you're on a season with some big media names like this year...I fear she won't have the fan base to keep her on as long as he---ooops I mean she deserves. She's a bit touchy with my man...but I'll let it slide since...well...she's in it to win it. But watch it missy...WATCH IT! Another thing I'd like to mention is how Maks rarely says anything in the green room (glass room in the back...whatever you want to call it) and some how ...he still is the essence of Mr. Cool.

4. Jake and Chelsie---Okay seriously, how many times are they gonna use the whole "rose cliche"---he gave her a rose when he met her, he gave her a rose during the dance, and then the song they chose for him to dance to is---Kissed by a ROSE by Seal?!?!? Oh give it a rest already. I guess anything is better than..."On the Wings of Love"---I admit...I was expecting that one! Would you all agree that Jake defines the word --NERD! He is so cheesy. For a man that good looking--it just doesn't work. He needs to just sit there and smile and never say one word. When he busted out with, "I come in here and feel dumb every day" (sniff sniff--whimper whimper) I practically puked. Be a man for crying out loud!! The dance was pretty good, but when Bruno said, "You look like you are riding a horse! Keep your legs together!" I couldn't help but think---he's been whoring around on the Bachelor...his days of keeping his legs together are OVER buddy..OVER! Oh and Carrie Ann--please don't refer to Jake as being romantic...ABC is romantic, he was just their puppet. Do you honestly think that Jake came up with all those romantic ideas for the show??? Pah-lease...it's called writers and producers! Ridiculous! Let's move on to the interview with Brooke where she asks him, "Really Jake, can you honestly say you were nervous? I mean you proposed to Vienna in front of America--that's as nervous as one can get" and his retarded response is, "Proposing to Vienna was the honor of my life!" Then they show Vienna with her cheesy smile and lo and behold she's sitting next to Gia who made out with him a week before the proposal of honor took place.---I call B.S.! BIGTIME!


5. Niecy and Louie--She looks happy to be there. That's a good sign. It's also good that she loves how she looks and is content---but seriously....I don't need to see you in a leotard. EVER. My advice to her is start dancing and stop lip-syncing...just a thought. You might do better.

6. Evan and Anna--He's a tad too monotone for me. He just seems boring. I fear this may be our first gold medalist to lose. I know he's riding the high of his Olympic win but I'm not sure it's gonna work. In fact, I have never heard of him until these Olympics---so I'm sure others are in the same boat. I noticed all the leg lifting (which is usually the girls deal) was done by him. A little "queer" and odd---no? As for Bruno wanting more chemistry from the 2 of them...I don't think that's possible Bruno...he of all people should know that!

7. Buzz and Ashly--Okay I'm just gonna come right out and say it...Astronauts are WEIRD! I mean really...you got to be a little screwy to get in a shuttle and orbit in space. Who freaking does that? The man's 80 years old and yes, a freaking hero, but seriously--you need to dance not walk during the performance. I say this every year...and every year we get the token senior! Can I just say that our little Ashly Costa is looking mighty good this year...she's definitely no longer Ashly "Of the Large" (the literal meaning of her maiden name-DELAGROSA. ---Thank you Mr. Greg) She's sweet and talented but she won't be on for long. Really, who's surprised?

8. Nicole and Derick--She's a dancer...no fair. I know she's never danced like this before but half the battle of this show is gaining the confidence to get up there and let loose. She's got that down because of her prior dancing--so the rest will come very easy to her. Derick needs to seriously shave that disgusting flesh colored peach fuzz off. It makes me sick! I'm with Len on this one...she wasn't that great...and definitely not worthy of 2 nines!

9. Aiden (hello gorgeous) and Edyta--Has Edyta ever danced with a dog on this show? Seriously, how the heck does she manage to get all the hotties? Who cares if this guy can even dance...he can stay on the show as long as he wants in my opinion. (Ease up ladies and gents...I'm still true to my man, but I needed to mention the obvious--he's some nice eye candy) I can't believe the judges gave him a 15??? Come on...he was better than that. And I don't blame Edyta for pleading with the fans to vote...she's not stupid. Wouldn't you want to stay on a little while longer if you were paired with Aiden?

10. Kate (Kill me now) Gosselin and Tony--So are you annoyed yet? Give it time. It will come. I love love how she played the "This is for all you moms out there" card. Oh give it a rest, you don't identify with the moms out there. How many moms do you know that get paid to stay home, get to go on all sorts of neat vacations and adventures, and get a free tummy tuck and makeover? That little plea to identify with me backfired! And Tony's right...can you be a little more excited to actually be on the show? You asked to do it...now do it! After the shortest routine I saw all night---and I listened to the judges...I couldn't help but think...hmmm...how's does the berating feel right now? Do you like to be torn to shreds in front of America and criticized for everything you do??? Well honey, welcome to your ex-hubby's world? It's not so cool when you're on the receiving end...is it? I'm not saying the guy was right in cheating...but he definitely took a daily verbal beating from that woman!

AND FINALLY--
Pam and new guy (didn't even catch his name)--I have no words...NONE...well okay...maybe some. What the heck was going on with her? Was she drunk? High? She was a mess. A total mess. I mean...without getting too graphic...I felt dirty just watching her. She looks like such trash. I think she was confused and thinking her partner was the strip pole. Goodness! Then just as the night was coming to a close at 1 hour and 55 minutes---her partner enjoyed a major boob grab---not graze...but a full on hold. PIG---I'm not sure she even noticed--that's even more disgusting! And the most disgusting was the scores she received! I guess it proves once again boobs will get you far in Hollywood.

Well folks...that about wraps it up. I'm actually quite thrilled to not have a 3 day season premiere. it leaves us wanting more. Overall, I'm happy with the premiere , I'm happy with the cast and most of all I'm happy with the changes.

Here's to a very exciting season 10!---

Keep Dancing,
Len-da Isa-ba

Season 10 Stars Line Up

Well ladies and gents---I'm back and better than ever! Finally--- a season worth watching! I'm not saying I'm thrilled about all our stars (more on that in a minute) but hey---there is a definitely some interest that's been perked in me.

I know many of you already have this information if you endured the freaking 3 hour spectacle of the Bachelor Finale last night---but what you don't have is my thoughts on the cast. I hope it's worth your time.

So without further delay---it's time to list all our "stars".

Let's begin with the fact that we still don't have a definite answer on Tom's new co-host. Notice, last night Melissa (move on already) Rycroft was announced as his special guest. Oh just make a decision already. It's not like whoever gets picked has some MAJOR shoes to fill. PAH-LESE! Do we all remember Samantha's mind-blowing interviews? You don't??? EXACTLY! So---as far as I'm concerned I can't be certain Melissa is it. I hope ABC makes a decision soon---all this flip flopping and agonizing is a little to Bacheloresc for me---and don't get me started on that. IN FACT, I have so much to say about that pansy Pavelka that I will save him for last.

1. Chad Ochocinco--don't know him...don't care---But I guess we'll include him in the line up since he is paired to 2 time champ Cheryl Burke and he is the staple football player we all expect to see. How about a basketball player or hockey?---CHANGE IT UP ALREADY!

2. Aiden Turner--some Hottie McNaughty from All My Children. Good ole' Edyta is paired with him. It must be in her contract to get the hot guy. She pretty much gets the best looking stars---well---for the most part,

3. Erin "I was peeped at" Andrews--Big whoop-For someone soooooo violated you sure don't mind getting up in front of America and wearing next to nothing...that's a smart move. Don't misunderstand me folks---I do believe she was a victim and that sicko needs some major help but I'm sure she's not the only woman peeped on. Come on now...you're in the public eye and you're good looking---how dare you change in your private hotel room!? It is important that I back this gal because she is paired with my Maks. So for that reason and that reason alone I like you. I'm also celebrating beyond words at the fact that Kate is not with Maks as I first predicted---or with Pam "Dirty Hep Queen" Anderson.

4. Buzz Aldrin--That fool isn't dead??? HUH? I mean seriously, wasn't he like 60 when he walked on the moon 4 decades ago? (if that even happened---ha ha ha) and how sad for him to be known as second person to walk on the moon---couldn't good ole' Neil say..."On the count of three we jump out!"--Stinking KILL JOY! But anyway---he's old and fragile and he'll be dancing with Ashley Costa (is this the former Ashley Delagrosa??---I think so. It will be nice to have her and her caterpillar eyebrows back)

5. Niecy Nash--She's the chick from Reno 911. I think she's on some other gig too---some clean house show. She's paired with Louie Van Amstel.

6. Shannen Doherty--Oh yeah...BRENDA WALSH baby---90210's resident bad girl. Love it! A little fact about her is she was married to Ashley Hamilton for like a hot second. For those of you that don't remember Ashley---let me assure you he IS a man and he was on DWTS for the same hot second last season? the season before that? Oh who cares...he was the first one booted out whatever season he was on. I guess it's trendy to have 90210 alums on the show---so ABC when do we all get to yell "Donna Martin GRADUATES!!!!"??? Is she signed on for next season? Brenda is paired with Mark Ballas. She'll eat him alive. And speaking of eating...what's up with her teeth? Some thing is off...way off.

7. Evan Lysacek--You all know him....he won the Gold in figure skating. It was figure skating right? I mean the only thing I recall about the Vancouver Olympics was the Shamu Attack---Oh wait...that wasn't even an event! Yeah...so I admit it...I didn't watch. Evan will be dancing with Anna Trebunskaya.

8. Nicoloe Scherzinger--She's the lead singer for the group Pussycat Dolls. So she basically, looks good and can't sing. I'm a little irritated because HELLO ABC---she's a dancer!!! Come on...what is she doing on there? She can't possibly last long cause who really cares about the Pussycat Dolls except adolescent boys? and I'm pretty certain those boys are not watching DWTS. She's partnered with Mr. Annoying himself...Derek Hough!

9. Pamela Anderson--I don't even have to say much about her...we all the know basic facts: she's got big boobs, she flip flops between Tommy Lee and Kid Rock, she's a PETA fanatic, has 2 boys, and Hepatitis. Oh yeah...and she was on Baywatch and in Playboy. She's partnered with a new dancer Damian Whitewood. Whoa what a gig---your first season on DWTS and you get Pam DAMN Anderson??? What a resume booster!

10. Kate Gosselin--(imagine the most disgusted look on my face as you read this)---she'll be annoying us in just a matter of weeks. Ugh...I literally just upchucked. I know...I know...having her on the show is good TV---I get it....but do you know what would have been GREAT TV?? Having her ex Jon on there!! Too bad ABC---you should have thought of that! The two exes competing...HOW AWESOME! But wait...who would watch the kids? Oh that's right...the 7 billion nannies they have. I will admit that I'd rather have her earn a living by dancing on a hit show...than have her put a picture book together of her kids with a little captions that say, "Hannah---my little Angel---may you always follow your dreams" and have it wind up on the BEST SELLER list. Oh please! Just in case you don't know how I feel about her...I would love ---LOVE--for her to be the first contestant booted off. That would be so amazing. Go home and raise your kids! They've been exploited enough! She's paired with Tony Dovolani. Poor guy.

11. Jake "On the Wings of PUKE" Pavelka--Okay, first off---I'm embarrassed to admit that I watched the Bachelor---but in watching said show I now have a perfect opinion of him. He's a moron! He's boring. He's ridiculous. He's a crybaby. He has horrible judgement. HE'S A CLASS A JERK. I am so sick of him boring me to death that I just can't imagine a new show with him on it. I mean really---do we need to see more of this wavering "I love you...no I love you...no wait...I love you both...but I still love Ali, too, and I love my mom and I love Gia" horn dog? NO--we do not! I'm very very worried about sweet young-- Chelsea Hightower (my favorite gal dancer). She is the one paired with him. Watch out Chelsea---whatever you do...don't ever say, "I love the way you dance" or even give him a smile and tell him he's doing a great job---because I can guarantee you-- he'll be in love with you by the end of the season. Oh and wait...Aren't you a freaking pilot? How many vacation days does an airline pilot get? Do you even have a job? Rumor on the street is he's a limo driver and not a pilot. I guess the head gear for a driver and a pilot look sorta similar and I suppose you can call driving a humongous car around "flying" but really??? What's the deal? America... If he hasn't annoyed you yet...just you wait---you'll be in tears and he'll be in tears in a few minutes.

A few things I'd like to point out is ---ABC is listening to me. First, they select Kate Gosselin, then they get rid of Samantha, and did you all catch what else they did??? They cut the couples list down from like 17 to 11!!! woo hoo! Now that's more like it! What else would you like to see change. I apparently have some pull in that area. My next mission is getting the back up singer fired! One mission at a time folks. ONE-MISSION-AT-A-TIME!

Another interesting tidbit...you'll notice quite a few of our resident dancers are gone, too.
Karina...FINALLY!
Lacey...It's about time!
Jonathan...there isn't a sickly on this season so naturally he was left out.
Dmitry...when he ruined it for Maya---I knew his DAYS were numbered!

So my dear sweet readers---Welcome back. This season will be spectacular. I just know it!

Back and ready for action,
Len-da Isa-ba

Rumors...Rumors...but soon we'll know the truth!

Okay so apparently many of you know that DWTS season 10 cast list will be announced today! I have yet to see any announcements.

I did however hear a lot of buzz and possibilities of who's on and what's going to change but for now...none of it can be written in stone.

Here's what I hear is going down...

First off...my prediction is most likely coming a reality....More like NIGHTMARE! Kate freaking Gosselin is on the show. I'll just say it right now...I know Maks will be paired up with her. I just know it. AND since I'm already expecting it I would like to put out a special message for my Maksy to read.

BE THE BIGGEST ASS YOU CAN BE! okay? Seriously...be mean...be harsh...BE THE MAKS we know and love! If you need assistance in how to be condescending and horrible take a little looksy at some of the fine episodes of Jon and Kate plus Eight---you've got much to learn from the master!

Other buzz and rumors are that we might have a little Full House reunion with Candace Cameron-Bure and John Stamos both appearing this season. I really like them both so if it's true...I hope you two can dance! However, the million dollar question is...if they both are on the show--who would Bob Saggot vote for??? His precious DJ or Uncle Jesse--Oh the problems---Oh the dilemma...

I hear that Pam-Jugs-Anderson is on as well as Kevin Federline---aka Brittney's Ex who's now a porker.--wait wasn't he on some celebrity (ha) fit show? Maybe he's not a porker...we'll see.

We already know Samantha's gone...but who will be her replacement??? The rumor mill says...
the contenders are:
Brooke Burke---nah...she'd annoy me.
Kelly Osborne---Oh please....
Melissa Rycroft---Seriously...move on already---your 15 minutes are UP!
and Vanessa Minillo---I guess she'd be good. She's Nick Lachey's girlfriend and former Miss Teen USA. She hosted a show called True Beauty and although I like her...I can't say I'll like her for DWTS.

And finally the best rumor (in my opinion)---Karrrina, Slutina...looks like a Bull in heat Smirnoff has been CUT from the pros list. Oh nice would that be? Actually, I'd take another season of Karina if we can get rid of that ridiculous back up singer with forehead flare!

Stay tuned tonight as they reveal the cast in a very long and drawn out ABC fashion during the 7 hour Bachelor Finale---all the rumors will finally be put to REST!

DWTS starts Monday, March 22nd.--Stay tuned!
