Disgusted! ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED!
Maks and Debi were way better than Chuck, the Football player snoozefest, Tom DeLay, and many more...
I'm really not interested in the season now!
But I will include a link to an article from People.com that is entitled something that brings music to my ears...
Maks: I'm done with Karina!
Whoever wrote that piece is a literary genius!
Enjoy---

Week 3---I can't believe it's only week 3.
So we begin another week and already with just the grand entrance I have so so much to comment on. However, I think I'll pace myself. I just want to give an honorable mention to Dmitry & Maks and the costume folks....NICE WORK on dressing or better said...undressing them this week. hee hee hee
As I'm sure you all noticed it's easy to spot who would be rumba-ing and who will be salsa-ing...Thank goodness Tom DeLay is soooo not rumba-ing. What a horrid mental picture.
I'm glad Lenny boy is back. I miss that ole' chap...chip chip cherrio lad. (Whoa girl...where did that come from?)
Lacy and Mark---Rumba -I'm sorry you Mark fans out there--but he is just not a sexy dance icon. I suppose he's a good looking man...but he doesn't ooze what the Rumba requires...and we all know what that is (think Maks or Dmitry). It was like watching my dentist dance. Actually...come to think of it...he looks a lot like my dentist...and I think that's what KILLED it for me! I think my next dental visit will make for an awkward one...great...just great. As if dental visits aren't bad enough. WAIT...Kathy Ireland..is married to Mark the food network guy??? I swear he was holding Kathy's hand at the beginning of his dance. Did you guys think that, too?
Joanna & Derrick--Okay first off...Derrick's peach fuzz makes me sick.---S-I-C-K. I can't even describe it. It's like watching a very annoying kid go through puberty. Yuck! I can't stand Joanna and I literally laughed out loud when she said, "A few of the other contestants have a bigger fan base than I do..." ---Yeah...you think???...that's the under statement of the YEAR! However, I didn't notice her invisalign so she might have gotten a hold of my review from last week and worked on my suggestions. Here's a suggestion for you. Just quit. You'll never win.
Mya & Dmitry--I like her. She's real, clever, and well...someone who has great concentration ability---geez louise that dance was quite close in proximity if you will. Oh brother...Carrie Ann and her self proclaimed lift police title is back...grrrr And what's the deal with everyone being able to do the splits? Is that a new requirement for the show?? Yeah the dance was good but 2 --10's??? Uh come on...that's perfection!? Would you say that was perfection? No...Dmitry?--well yeah I'd say he's pretty close to it...but the dance...no. (And no...Maks and I aren't over...it's just that Dmitry could almost be his kid brother---just a general observation on those Russians)
Melissa & Mark--All I know is that there was this one part in the dance that looked so freaking uncomfortable. Like they had their pant zippers stuck and they were frantically trying to come apart...egads...the rest was okay I guess. Nothing too spectacular there. Over it.
Oh and a random note about Carrie Ann's million zillion necklaces---I wish someone would wrap them around just a wee bit tighter...she bugs. And I noticed SaMANtha had those same necklaces, too...might as well wrap hers tighter, too. Those 2 are just something else....(shaking my head)
Louie & Chelsie-- How cute is he? I was busting up at how excited he was about this dance and how he knew all the ins and outs of what a Rumba involves...including the slicked back wet hair. Hysterical! Watch out Julianne..you have been replaced. Chelsie is officially the new hottie on the block and I love her personality so much more than Julianne's which says a lot! Cause you all know how much I loved Julianne. Len is a prude! A total TOTAL prude!!!!! I can't believe Len gave a 5??? That man is delirious! But Louie... a true smooth dude...not even bothered by Len's craziness...just graciously said I'm happy cause my scores went up. Stupid Len...bring back Baz...that sissy liked everyone and anyone!
Maks & Debi--What the heck was my man wearing during rehearsal...that black and orange tanktop...I think that he must have borrowed that from my closet. It's okay. I forgive him. We share everything.---A quick shout out to Mel B. I love Mel B. That was Maks' best partner. It was nice to see her pop in.--Okay back to this season. Folks please don't be fooled for a minute when Maks tells Thebi to stop talking. He's not being mean...there is only one reason and one reason only for the request--He's over that lisp! I'm certain of it. Poor baby! I don't know how long I could listen to that myself. As I'm sure you all guessed when the dance first opened...I knew Len was gonna hate that intro but Maks shaking his rump totally made up for it! And I'm with Bruno for once...you have a hot hunk dancing with you and you don't touch him?? That woman has lost her marbles. Geth her outh of there and puth Nathalie in her plathe. She would be perfect with my Maksy.
Donny and Kym--I have to say...picturing Donny in the Rumba is a little unsettling. True...he's really growing on me...but him all seductive and sexy...ewww... However, even with that queasy feeling, I was willing to give it a chance and perhaps he would shock me. Well...hmmm...okay---then the dance begun and I was right...ewwww --save that side of you for the bedroom. But of course Len would like it...prude---okay the whole Bruno thing...had me screaming out loud---I laughed at first but then I started to get nervous. You're soooo right Donny-Utah might not let you back after that close call. But now, I fear, it's time I give Donnoy a lecture...Cut out some of the theatrics...it's a little tooo much like Marie. That was very borderline for me. He needs to watch that! Or BAM he's cut off from my kindness. Wait wait wait...Donny gets a 7 and Louie gets a 5---B.S. Total B.S.
Paula---you're not a judge...You were a judge on a totally different show and network but you're not one now! And you're not the next Kenny Main or Adam Corolla...or Len-da...so keep your trap shut and take your meds--cause we don't need your opinions or your ideas of you and Carrie Ann making out. Really...who does she think she is? I think she needs to..forget about taking "two steps forward" and just work on taking many many "steps back"--cause honey..."opposites do not attract" in this town....
Michael & Anna---zzzzzzzzz---I totally forwarded it. I think we should have selected Mayo as our new pro dancer...cause she's boring.---I think they go this week.
Natalie & Alec--Oh how I missed Edyta and that accent more than you'll ever know. Natalie is so cute. I would be just as awkward looking at someone like that.---but you know what's more embarrassing?? Ending the dance with your face in Alec's crotch...that's way more awkward. Careful what you wish for honey...
Anna & Chuck--I love how he called it the most flamboyant dance...sooooo so true. Oh dear...pulling off those sleeves threw him off. Maybe he should be the one to go. Sorry Chuckster..but you're done.
Aaron and Karrrrrrrina-- Guess what Aaron boy---Hugh Hefner called & he wants his smoking jacket back. That's all I'm gonna say...cause I'm tired...very very tired and to think I'm staying up for Karina...that's just wrong.
I have to say one quick thing...isn't it funny how when Maks and Karina had that horrible little period where they were boyfriend/girlfriend (One I am choosing to pretend never happened)...Samantha and ever other schmuck on the show made such a big deal of it...well where is all the big deal making now? Huh?--Come on...let's hear about the break up. I'd love to hear the juicy details...come on ABC...break ups sell... Okay, that's it....
Tom & Cheryl...Oh boy our first injury of the season---just put the darn man out of his misery. I hate the whole "I won't give up!" business---If you're really injured...give it up!--there is no shame in withdrawing when you're in pain.--But I do give him credit for at least letting me see the disaster that we all knew was about to unfold (unlike Jewel or Nancy O'dell who didn't even attempt a dance!--Chickens). I'm sure I'll find some morsal of humor in Tom's performance. Like when he rolled his hips...oh dear...don't ever do that again! EVER! I loved Len's comment,"I wouldn't be judging if I had 2 stress fractures...let alone dancing." funny funny funny.
Kelly & Louie---She's ...how do I put this...hard to look at. She really is...That hair...Or that blubbering all the time...come on...you're not dying...She actually did pretty good. So you see...all that crying for nothing. ---That kiss at the end...ewwww...she totally planted one on him and from the look on Louie's face- I don't think he was okay with it.

Week 2 and already slacking
Hey folks...sorry for the delay in my review. I did watch it on Monday but I was soooo tired and there was nothing really too exciting that happened other than Tom DeLay, Kelly Osborne, and Mark the Food Network guy...having some near and real falls. That of course was most exciting for me.
I'm gonna go quick...so try and stay with me...think of it as a QUICK STEP type of review.
I don't get the whole muppets thing...in fact, I thought that was stupid. I guess I'm not the biggest muppets fan---however Karrrria calling herself Miss Piggy was a true delight---hearing that kiss ass Samantha say..."oh no never...I would never call you that"--made me throw up in my mouth a little.
Maks is still a jerk during rehearsals and well...I loved it. I know he would never talk to me like that because I'd give him a titty twister if he did. (I might give him one anyway--ha ha) No seriously...he can get a tad intense but hey...it is what it is...
That "model" Joanna...who by the way, I've never heard of before--CAN and SHOULD take out her "Invisalign" retainer/braces thinga-ma-jig during the one on one interviews. It's extremely distracting---and please don't tell me you never noticed. She doesn't wear it during performances just rehearsals (which is okay---but when you're on the camera talking to the audience about nothing but yourself---please take it out!) oh oh oh and how can I go on without saying how ANNOYING Derrick is this season. My goodness. He's a total spaz. Oh that Derrick and his wild hair and antics. GRRRRRR
I can't believe I'm gonna say this but Donny grew on me this week. He's not really quite as annoying as his sister so I might have to retract my Donnoy nickname...key word is MIGHT. I'll have to wait and see for now.
Aaron Carter still acts ghetto...that's getting just a tad old.
Umpa-louie-pa is so cute. I really like his little smile and the partnership he has with Chelsea. I hope they last a little while. Call me Len-da but he could use a hair makeover. BIG TIME.
Tom DeLay, Kathy Ireland, and the football dude and his ZERO personality professional partner can go, too!
Mya is doing hella good. I like Dmitry. So...good work.
Kelly---quit your crying..it's way too early for the waterworks.
Melissa Joan Hart...I think she put on her grandma's dentures...what's up with her teeth??
I missed Len.
Bruno needs to take a seat and stop standing for his critique...seriously...JUST SIT DOWN.
As for the results show...didn't watch much of it at all...a lot of forwarding. BUT---I was extremely nervous for my Thebi and Makth. I'm glad they made it. However, I think I need to start voting cause it's not looking good for him---excuse me...them.
Oh and don't forget to vote for the whole "Create the Dance" thing they've got going on...this week we select the celebrity we want to come back and dance. I am voting for Mel B!!!!
Well, folks...that's it for this week.
I'm perfecting my "Karrrina" for a future video...stay tuned.

Season 9 First 2 eliminations!!
The ones that have departed were right on. No surprises there. As much as I wanted Macy Gray to hang on a few more weeks to see her try and attempt a lift...that dream was squashed. However, I felt surprisingly very sorry for her. She looked devastated. I was expecting tears would come rushing out any minute. In fact, the other "stars" saw it, too. You might have noticed them buzzing in the background (and yes...I read lips...so I literally saw, "I feel so bad for her")
Anyway, she and Ashley took the defeat well and moved on.
How funny was the Adam Corolla bit?? I know a certain someone who was in heaven at that very moment. So for you Monica...He was outstanding. I laughed out loud at the, "Donny...you're 51 years old. When can we start calling you Don?" I loved it!
A little bit of funny trivia that some of you probably don't know. I got an email about 2 weeks ago asking me if I want to participate in the live audience for the taping of the Lion King performance we saw last night. The fine print in this email said, none of the stars of DWTS will be there---no judges, pros, hosts...anyone. It's just a special recording for a Macy's Lion King performance. Well, last night...they would have the viewers believe that the Lion King performance was live. Well, it wasn't. In fact, it was a completely different audience than the one that was at last night's elimination show. So, the funny part is, after the performance (by the way...it was awesome and trust me the entire production is worth seeing) but anyway...after the performance and the return back from commercial. Tom Bergeron says, "You should have seen the smile on Tom DeLay's face when that giant elephant came down the steps..." The woman in the audience behind Tom Bergeron had this look of absolute confusion...like.."huh??? what?? what elephant?? I didn't see an elephant???" It was priceless because of course you didn't...don't worry lady...you haven't lost your marbles. It never happened!!! Anyway, it cracked me up. Sneaky little producers...
And finally...was anyone else emotional over the tribute to Patrick Swayze??? I loved it. It's performances like that, that make me appreciate the beauty of dance and how it can really speak volumes!
Well...week one is done and I'm pooped.
Keep Dancing..

Season 9 Premiere--night 2- The ladies
Ladies and Gentlemen a travesty has occurred. The first time in 9 seasons, my tivo malfunctioned and didn't record. YES, it's true. I couldn't believe it! I think I'm being punished for my droolfest over Maks the other day. I got home late last night and I decided to start watching the show at 9:30pm. When I noticed it had not recorded, I was extremely bummed, but I realized I had tuned in precisely at the moment of the relays. So...like a true champ, I got over it and got to work. (I'm sure I'll catch what I missed tonight...on the 4 hour recap show!!!)
Let's just say that the last 30 minutes was all I needed to see.
The first dance---The foxtrot.
I think that Thebi Mathar and Makth are thoing very wellth. Ith isth a thrue pleathure to wath them performth. (that lisp however hath got to go!)
I really do think she's got talent and if she can get some fans and lose that lisp...they might be okay. My favorite part was when Thebi Mathar said, "I loved being elegant and laying on Maks" and for the first time in DWTS history Samantha made a funny!!! She said, "I think there are many women out there who would love to lay on...nevermind...I'll leave that one alone" I'm impressed...truly impressed.
I can't stand that model Joanna. I gather she did well last night cause the judges just kept going on and on about her...well...let me tell you all something. If you didn't watch the show SuperStars (FYI--Maks won!) you didn't get the chance to see what a poor sport she is. She is very competitive and when something doesn't go her way she flips on the "witch" switch. Just wait until she has a bad night and the judges get a little harder on her...you'll see a side of her that you might be surprised about. AND of course she'd be paired with Derrick of all people. I'm thrilled because WHEN-- not IF--- but WHEN they do get eliminated...2 people that I don't like will be gone. I wait patiently for that day!
Kathy Ireland should just go home now. She's gorgeous but can't move...and she can't seem to fit in the camera shot---so adios sista!
The swimmer...ahhh...nothing to get excited about.
The second dance--The Cha Cha
Oh dear...Macy Gray. My goodness. There are just no words. NONE. Okay, there might be some. It looks like Macy got an anvil dropped on her head and she's still woozy from the crash!! I mean she's ready to hit the floor at any moment. You know like she just got off those horrible spin you round and round carnival rides and is trying to regain her balance. She's higher than a kite! I really need her to stay around a lot more cause I'm busting up watching her! BUSTING UP!
Sabrina the teenage witch-- did pretty good. I'll have to wait and a see a little more with her.
Mya--Shmya...I don't see why everyone was soooo excited about her.
The most surprising for me was of course Kelly Osborne. She did great and she truly looks like she's been dreaming of being a contestant on this show. She's loving this! and guess what...I love it, too. I'm really rooting for her to stick around a while. She also was very gracious backstage and eloquent in her answer to Samantha (who I still think will reveal she's pregnant this season!).
Finally, the last thing I want to bring up is something that I really should have discussed yesterday. What's the deal with Marie (Kill me now) Osmond and Jermaine Jackson sitting together?? And more importantly why do they insist on showing Marie before and after every commercial break. Geez Louise...
Well folks...I think the double elimination will include Tom and Kathy.
Let's just say that the last 30 minutes was all I needed to see.
The first dance---The foxtrot.
I think that Thebi Mathar and Makth are thoing very wellth. Ith isth a thrue pleathure to wath them performth. (that lisp however hath got to go!)
I really do think she's got talent and if she can get some fans and lose that lisp...they might be okay. My favorite part was when Thebi Mathar said, "I loved being elegant and laying on Maks" and for the first time in DWTS history Samantha made a funny!!! She said, "I think there are many women out there who would love to lay on...nevermind...I'll leave that one alone" I'm impressed...truly impressed.
I can't stand that model Joanna. I gather she did well last night cause the judges just kept going on and on about her...well...let me tell you all something. If you didn't watch the show SuperStars (FYI--Maks won!) you didn't get the chance to see what a poor sport she is. She is very competitive and when something doesn't go her way she flips on the "witch" switch. Just wait until she has a bad night and the judges get a little harder on her...you'll see a side of her that you might be surprised about. AND of course she'd be paired with Derrick of all people. I'm thrilled because WHEN-- not IF--- but WHEN they do get eliminated...2 people that I don't like will be gone. I wait patiently for that day!
Kathy Ireland should just go home now. She's gorgeous but can't move...and she can't seem to fit in the camera shot---so adios sista!
The swimmer...ahhh...nothing to get excited about.
The second dance--The Cha Cha
Oh dear...Macy Gray. My goodness. There are just no words. NONE. Okay, there might be some. It looks like Macy got an anvil dropped on her head and she's still woozy from the crash!! I mean she's ready to hit the floor at any moment. You know like she just got off those horrible spin you round and round carnival rides and is trying to regain her balance. She's higher than a kite! I really need her to stay around a lot more cause I'm busting up watching her! BUSTING UP!
Sabrina the teenage witch-- did pretty good. I'll have to wait and a see a little more with her.
Mya--Shmya...I don't see why everyone was soooo excited about her.
The most surprising for me was of course Kelly Osborne. She did great and she truly looks like she's been dreaming of being a contestant on this show. She's loving this! and guess what...I love it, too. I'm really rooting for her to stick around a while. She also was very gracious backstage and eloquent in her answer to Samantha (who I still think will reveal she's pregnant this season!).
Finally, the last thing I want to bring up is something that I really should have discussed yesterday. What's the deal with Marie (Kill me now) Osmond and Jermaine Jackson sitting together?? And more importantly why do they insist on showing Marie before and after every commercial break. Geez Louise...
Well folks...I think the double elimination will include Tom and Kathy.

Season Nine Premiere--(night 1 of 3)
Welcome back my fine friends!!! Season 9 is here and of course ABC is gonna drag this out for 3 nights. Oh brother. Here is a thought--how about we don't start with 40 couples off the bat? hmmmm??? If we started with 10 couples we could probably get to every couple and still finish in 1 hour. I love this show but 2 hours for 3 nights???...is just darn ridiculous.
But anyway...when I heard that the women and Macy Gray (I'm not quite certain she's a woman yet) would be dancing Tuesday night, I almost turned the TV off. If Maks is not performing then I might as well call it a night--so with eyes rolling, some grumbling under my breath and while reaching for the remote to hit the OFF button--- I hear the music, I see the flashing lights and of course they hooked me in. More specifically..I saw that my precious Maksy and his back up dancers were descending to that shiny dance floor---My heart started beating and my eyes were fixed on him. No need for the remote except for maybe to hit pause on guess who??---(okay Linda...wipe the drool and move on already. You'll have to excuse me...he is single again. Who didn't see that coming??)
General Observations:
1. Is Samantha pregnant?? Never in my life have I wanted to hear that announcement made about someone. Just think of it...Samantha pregnant=MATERNITY LEAVE which in turn = a very nice break for the viewers.
2. Do any of you have any idea how much joy it brought me to see Cheryl paired with Tom?? Hysterical. She needed a good kick off her pedestal from last seasons very touchy grabby love fest with the gypsy Gilles. Take that you hussy!
3. Good grief Kathy Ireland...could you move any slower coming down those stairs? Was she using a cane? I know the stairs have proven to be slippery but come on! I'm aging here!
4. I can't stand that so-called model Joanna. Probably because she looks like Karrrrrina! Both trash.
5. Macy Gray---tame the Afro baby...I can't see your partner (oh who cares...it's only Jonathan). I can't wait to see her perform. If it's anything like her singing performances...we're in for a treat! A real treat!
6. Nice dye job Bruno...I believe you are more of a walnut dream rather than blackest black.
Now on to the dancers.
1. Aaron and Karina-
Okay Aaron..newsflash...you're white!
You had a hit record at 8 years old? Really? I highly doubt that! Your only real claim to fame is being one of the Backstreet Boys' kid brother. Get over yourself. Antother thing what's with Carrie Ann saying , "My, my Aaron...you're all grown up" Hands off you cougar---I don't think he's legal yet. And finally... Any moron that calls Karina a hottie or an ideal coach because she's beautiful---is officially on my "You disgust me list"
2. Anna and Chuck-
I just want to say that I'm pretty certain he was picturing Anna as that big blue punching bag he uses during workouts. Because while dancing he tried his little heart out to smile but instead just looked constipated. A real pity. And it didn't appear that Anna appreciated the very poetic Samantha calling her a "thing"--She's still the idiot I remember.
3. Edyta and Ashley-
He's a comedian? Yeah...sure. and I'm a politician! Boy oh boy did Orange Hamilton look bad or what? I didn't think it was possible to get more orange but some how he managed. Keep it up and you'll lose that signature mole of yours. Anyway...it's pure music to my ears, hearing Edyta say, "Pooosh poosh"-- that accent kills me every time! I'm a tad surprised he got a 4 and Mo"huck" Chuck got a 6. Come on!
4. Donny and Kym--
One word---ANNOYING! That fool manages to annoy me the first second he's on. He gets no "puppy love" from me. His new name is Donnoy---cause he Donnoys the crap out of me! Already with the shenanigans---running across the floor, making those stupid "performance faces"--Get ready folks...we're in for a very very long season! I do love that the judges called him out on being a little too "showy"---a little? Paahlese! Oh and I get it...Marie is gonna be in the audience...no need to show her every 2 minutes.
5. Louie and Chelsea-
Holy moly---Willy Wonka's umpalumpas called and want to know when you'll be back at the candy factory??? (I know that was mean...but something is just not right there!) And if you had any doubt about what's really going on there...his circus tricks proved it!.. Yes, I'm mean...but who cares, you guys all eat it up. I say the things you'd never say yourselves, right?...Bruno HOWEVER--has no right to call him "a cute dancing hobbit"---Oh really...now there is the smurf calling the hobbit short...At least Umpa"louie"mpa is cute and clever...unlike you...
6. Michael and newbie Anna-
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
7. Tom and Cheryl-
Pure joy...it's just so fitting that she get paired with him. I love my little conservatives!
8. Mark and Lacey-
I literally almost forgot them. So that shows you I'm not very interested in these two. Lacey the self proclaimed rebel looked a little thick to me (sorry but had to say it) and finally when Carrie Ann said she's happy that the Asians are being represented...I practically puked. Uhhhh hello...what about Kristi Yamaguchi???You weren't so thrilled then. What? You're only happy when the MALE asians represent? How about I Kung Fu fight your face in!
Dancing Relays...
Just make the show 1 hr and 30 min.---okay???
Looking forward to Maks...errr...I mean the ladies dancing tonight. Until then...
Keep Dancing.

Season 9 Cast revealed...anyone else scratching their head??
Well folks--it's been a long long long time since I've checked in on the "official" Dancing with the Semi-Stars blog and as you can tell. I've completedly revamped the site. It now is called---Dancing with anyone who says, "Sure I'll do it"
I've been toying with the idea of completely skipping this season. I'm so disappointed in the contestants (they will not be called stars! EVER!)
But because I do have my own little following now...I can't disappoint the readers!
Let's get to the couples.
Mya, singer, and Dmitri Chaplin---I love how they have to tell us, she's a singer.
Melissa Joan Hart, actress, and reigning DWTS champ Mark Ballas- Sabrina the teenage witch??? What's going on here? When did ABC become KCAL 9 or channel 13--(reject channels) I mean really???
Michael Irvin, former Dallas Cowboy, and Anna Demidova- Don't know who they are...and don't care.
Ashley Hamilton, actor, comedian, singer-songwriter, and Edyta Sliwinska- Apparently, Ashley is a man. Good to know.
Aaron Carter, singer, and Karina Smirnoff-Great---just great. My arch-nemisis gets paired with a young wannabe (his brother was in Backstreet Boys--a fine boy band if I do say so myself!) The youngens...typically stay on long. I can't stand to see her smug face as she reminds me she's marrying my boyfriend.
Kathy Ireland, former supermodel-turned-businesswoman, and Tony Dovolani--"former model turned business woman" Is that code for ---I used to look good but now I don't? I haven't seen Kathy in a while and she is a beautiful lady---but that introduction really makes me expect the worst.
Debi Mazar, actress, and Maksim Chmerkovskiy--How dare they put the champion of the show Superstars with Debi Mazar....who is Debi Mazar?? If it's who I think it is...I'm not impressed. He's a champion and he needs a champion by his side. I'm available baby! (Athough I haven't actually been declared champion of anything)
Natalie Coughlin, U.S. Olympic swimmer, and season 1 champ Alec Mazo--Season 1 Champ??? Oh brother...let it go already. No one watched season 1 okay!! Just call him the football head who's married to Edyta "Legs" Sliwinska.
Louie Vito, snowboarder, and Chesie Hightower--I remember Chelsie and I even liked her a lot but Louie Vito??? Who's he? Do you think he's Italian?? heh heh heh
Chuck Liddell, ultimate fighting champ, and Anna Trebunskaya--Oh no...Anna's back? I hate ultimate fighting anything...this should be intersting. She's can get quite nasty with her partners---but Chuck might just pop her one in the mouth to give her a reality check.
Donny Osmond, singer, and Kym Johnson--This makes me sick. That means...we'll be seeing Marie ALL THE TIME. I couldn't handle her the season she was on...and I know I won't be able to handle her now...I'm sure she'll plug nutrisystem and credit that for losing her 50 pounds. Oh go make a doll or something and stay away!
Tom DeLay, former congressman, and two-time Dancing champ Cheryl Burke--I'm over Cheryl and her slutty outfits.
Macy Gray, singer, and Jonathan Roberts--This is a beautiful pairing. JUST beautiful. Macy Gray is crazy and Jonathan has already been partnered with Marie Osmond--so he knows crazy!
Joanna Krupa, model and actress, and season 7 champ Derek Hough--Ladies...Derek is now officially on the market again. (Ewwwwww) oh and is this the same Joanna that was on Superstars with T.O.??? If so...what are they thinking? She's awful.
Mark Dacascos, Iron Chef personality, and Lacey Schwimmer--Let's see if she keeps up her antics for a third year.
Kelly Osbourne, reality star, and Louis Van Amstel--Oh dear. Oh ..oh...dear!
So dear friends and readers---as you can see, I'm really considering not continuing the reviews for this season. Between the horrible cast and SaMANtha---how can I possibly survive???
Sooo---who's watching?
