Dancing With The Stars week two recap 3/28/11
by Roberta Ferguson on Mar.28, 2011, under articles

Dancing With The Stars is back for week two and they all have another chance to make good scores due to the fact that no one was eliminated last week!
Dancing first were Sugar Ray Leonard and Anna Trebunskaya, doing the Jive. Len commented that Sugar Ray was in jeopardy already. Bruno said that it was too soft around the edges. They scored 17 points.
Dancing next were Kendra Wilkinson and Louis Van Amstel, doing the Quickstep. Len commented that her posture was a bit hit and miss. Overall, there was improvement over last week. They scored a total of 19 points.
Up next on the dance floor were Chelsea Kane and Mark Ballas, dancing the Jive. It was an entertaining dance, yet the judges said that there wasn’t much of a Jive to it. Carrie Ann said that she didn’t care for the choreography. They scored a total of 18 points.
Dancing the Quickstep are Chris Jericho and Cheryl Burke. His dancing seemed a bit stiff, but overall, it looked like he was having fun. At points, it seemed a bit effortless for Chris, which is a bonus. They scored a total of 23 points.
Up next are Petra Nemcova and Dmitry Chaplin, doing the Jive. She did a pretty good performance. Len said, “Long legs, bad technique”, but she “did it beautifully.” They scored a total of 18 points.
Dancing next are Kirstie Alley and Maksim Chmerkovskiy, doing the Quickstep. They did a good job, I loved their dance, even though it wasn’t my favorite song choice…Ha. She ended the dance with a big kiss for Maks! They scored a total of 20 points.
Mike Catherwood and Lacey Schwimmer are up next, doing the Jive. He was truly awful and slow and stiff — and that’s being kind. Obviously, this guy needs to stick to radio. They scored a total of 17 points.
Dancing next are Romeo and Chelsie Hightower, doing the Quickstep. They looked cute and a little disconnected. He looked like he was about to mess up at any minute. They scored a total of 23 points.
Next up are Wendy Williams and Tony Dovolani doing the Quickstep. This dance wasn’t very quick, considering that it’s a Quickstep. Too many props, too, in my opinion. They scored a total of 17 points.
Ralph Macchio and Karina Smirnoff danced the Jive next. They did really well, the dance was fast and fun! He’s 49 and he’s dancing like he’s 20. You go, Karate Kid! They scored a total of 21 points.
Hines Ward and Kym Johnson danced the Quickstep next. They did decent, but not spectacular. I can see him doing better in a ballroom styled dance, instead of something that was supposed to be so fast. They scored a total of 23 points.
Who are you rooting for???

by Roberta Ferguson on Mar.21, 2011, under articles

Dancing With The Stars marks its twelfth season tonight and we’ve got the lowdown on the dances, the dancers and all of the scores from tonight’s show!
Chelsea Kane and Mark Ballas danced the Foxtrot for the first dance of the night. They were cute for their very first dance together. The judges liked the dance, as well. They scored a total of 21 points.
Up next were Wendy Williams and Tony Dovolani doing the Cha Cha. The dance was slow and somewhat disconnected. It seemed like she wasn’t into it. The judges told her that she needed to bring her personality into the dance more. They scored 14 points.
Dancing next were Hines Ward and Kym Johnson doing the Cha Cha. Hines was confident and looked like he was having a blast. They scored a total of 21 points. (continue reading…)
The Situation & Karina Smirnoff practice dancing in the parking lot
by Lydia Harris on Oct.06, 2010, under articles

The Situation and his dancing partner, Karina Smirnoff, were busting a move in the parking lot. But, no matter how practice this guy gets, he doesn’t seem to be good enough to continue on Dancing With The Stars.
Especially after Monday’s futuristic Foxtrot. I can’t believe that the judges wanted to see that one again. And what was up with that see-through mesh shirt he was wearing? I guess they have to try and play up his best feature for ratings.
What do you think of The Situation’s dance moves?
