“Family Matters” stars Jaleel White and his professional dance partner Kym Johnson have become the latest couple to be eliminated from “Dancing With The Stars“. White isn’t mad about his exit from the hit dancing competition, in fact, he doesn’t have any regrets about taking part in the show.

After the elimination, he said that the biggest thing he is taking away from the experience is “Friendships!” He went on to say, “Believe me, when I go to Miami I’m calling William Levy!”

He also talked about working with Johnson, saying, “If anything, I really respected her work ethic, so that’s why I enjoyed having my daughter around her. I always want my daughter to see me work and it’s not all fame and games. It’s work. We put it in.”

White will next take on his new game show, “Total Blackout”, of which he says, “I’m really happy people are seeing me in a different light. I’ve been stepping out my comfort zone and I’m going to keep on doing it.”

“Dancing With The Stars” claimed another victim in last night’s elimination episode. “Family Matters” actor Jaleel White and his professional dance partner Kym Johnson was eliminated from the competition.

The dancing duo were pitted against Disney star Roshon Fegan and his partner Chelsie Hightower. The bottom two couples had to perform a Rumba in the last Dance Duel of the season.

Both displayed excellent technique and form in their dances, but the judges couldn’t save both. In the end, it was a unanimous decision to save Roshon and Chelsie. Watch the video below:

Do you think the judges sent home the right couple? We’ve heard rumblings from “DWTS” fans that the Dance Duel should have included Melissa Gilbert. She had already commented that she would not be able to survive the Rumba in the Dance Duel. Do you think it was her time to go?

Dancing With The Stars is back tonight with an all new episode. Tonight is Classical Night! Last week, we said goodbye to legendary soul singer Gladys Knight and her partner Tristan MacManus. In case you’ve missed the show, you can read our full recap here.

Judge’s commentary:

Len said that he liked it enough not to be cruel, but not enough to be kind. There was no footwork in there, but as a number he liked it. It didn’t quite work. Bruno said he tried and attempted everything. It was executed as well as it could be. As a story, it was very nice. Carrie Ann said it was refreshing and the storytelling was excellent. Be aware of his hands and the competition is tight.

Scores:

Carrie Ann: 8
Len: 8
Bruno: 8

Total: 24/30

Our commentary:

In the pre-package video, Jaleel says that he’s going to put on a show for Bruno and give the technical points for Len. He comments that he needs the points to go UP! Jaleel is showing some skin for this performance and he’s bringing it! Kudos to him for a much better performance than last week.

Bruno: You’ve got the party started and the wiggle was unstoppable.

On tonight’s episode of Dancing With The Stars, Family Matters actor Jaleel White and his professional dance partner Kym Johnson are taking on the Viennese Waltz. It’s our favorite week of the season!

As always, we are live-blogging all of the action in tonight’s show, so you can read all about that here.

Our commentary on the dance:

They’re dancing to I Can’t Get No (Satisfaction) by The Rolling Stones. The dance isn’t bad at all. He’s very light on his feet and has the right moves.

Judge’s comments:

Carrie Ann: She loved it. There was something funky and weird about it. It was smooth, but try to be more staccato.
Len: He agrees with Carrie Ann and likes the humor he put into it. It needed more attack. As a performance, it was great.
Bruno: He loved it. He’s got to have the stalking, but the performance was good. Len is right, it needed more drive and more aggression in the footwork.

Carrie Ann Inaba: 8
Len Goodman: 7
Bruno Tonioli: 7

What did you think of Jaleel and Kym’s dance? Was it your favorite so far tonight? Sound off in the comments and let us know your thoughts!

Jaleel White is ready to rock the dance floor on the new season of Dancing With The Stars. In a new interview with Starpulse, the actor opened up about his attempt to win the Mirror Ball trophy.

For season 14, Jaleel is partnered up with Kym Johnson and talked about how he’s going to try to win the dancing competition.

When asked how he reacted to learning that his partner is Kym, he revealed, “I was thrilled – it was the feather in my cap! I am happy to have someone reputable and I don’t have to question her background. I’m just doing what I am told with her.”

He was asked what scares him the most about putting himself out there on the show and he said, “Just going from one dance to another one, the sense of accomplishment is a little short lived.”

He was also asked how he feels about being one of the fan favorites this season. He said, “I’ve been on television for a majority of my life and I’m so grateful for that and I’m honored that all the times I have been on television has translated to the fan favorite thing.”

When speaking of being a fan of the show or watching it on television, he said, “I’m not going to be one of those cornball people who work in TV but say they don’t watch TV. I’ve never really watched the show in its entirety but if you are on the net at all you are obviously going to see clips of Rob Kardashian and Hines Ward and whoever and I watched those. So that’s all I really watched of the show but my mom and my manager were huge fans and convinced me to say yes, so that’s basically why I am doing Dancing With The Stars.”

He added, “Can I tell you my secret weapon? I am taking it one week at a time. I’m not thinking about week 5 or 6 – I have five days to prepare for this week and that’s all that matters.”

Will you be rooting for Jaleel tonight?

It’s 80′s Week on Dancing With This Stars and dancing seventh is David Arquette and his professional dance partner, Kym Johnson. They’re doing the Tango to Tainted Love by Soft Cell.

David does a good impression of Len, it’s hilarious. He said that he wants to show a connection to the dance. He wants to show the audience that he can really dance. Love the outfits! Do you think he’s got enough zippers???

WATCH:

They dance very nicely together, I like it. What a great performance, I can feel that he put a lot of work into it and he doesn’t look half bad, either. Very nicely done!

Len Goodman said he’s the old fuddy duddy, but it had a great eighties feel and the choreography was great. He said David has to show up or shut up and David showed up and it was fantastic.

Bruno Tonioli said it was a Tango with a rebel yell. He said that’s the way to go.

Carrie Ann Inaba said he’s improving tremendously over the weeks. What he needs to work on is musicality and he’s coming up to be a contender.

Scores:

Carrie Ann: 8
Len: 9
Bruno: 8

Dancing second on last night’s Dancing With The Stars was actor David Arquette and his professional dance partner Kym Johnson, doing the Paso Doble to the theme from Raiders Of The Lost Ark. In case you’ve missed the show last night, you can check out our official recap here.

This was a really interesting dance, as always….we thought it was pretty good. But we really like David Arquette and want him to stay in the competition, because he tries so hard. The results are well executed, as well.

Bruno Tonioli said that he loved the way David cracked his whip! The only advice he had to offer was to watch his turns.

Carrie Ann Inaba said that David saved the day! She also said that this week, there has been an incredible amount of bravado.

Len Goodman said that he liked the entry and his attitude, but afterward, it was the Temple Of Doom. The crowd boo’ed! Len said that he didn’t see the good posture or the tight buttocks (like Bruno said he did…)

On last night’s performance episode of Dancing With The Stars, actor David Arquette and his professional dance partner Kym Johnson performed a Rumba. In case you’ve missed last night’s show, you can read our official recap here.

The video:

Taking to the floor last, David dedicated his Rumba to his daughter, Coco. He said that his most memorable year was the year that he became separated and fell into alcohol abuse. They danced very well and this was definitely his comeback dance.

Len Goodman started off the judge’s commentary by saying that he did a great job and he’s proud of David.

Bruno Tonioli said the dance was wonderful.

Carrie Ann said that the dance was a nice comeback and he brought back more of himself. She called the dance pure and honest.

Carrie Ann: 8
Len: 8
Bruno: 8

Did you enjoy David’s Rumba? Was that your favorite dance of the night? Who are you rooting for this season of Dancing With The Stars? Sound off in the comments and let us know what you think!

Actor David Arquette and his professional dance partner, Kym Johnson, danced third on last night’s episode of Dancing With The Stars. They performed a cute and fast Jive and it was an improvement over last week’s dance (even though that was pretty well done, as well).

Check out the video:

Carrie Ann Inaba said that Carson has some competition. She said that it was a little bit “Carson-esque” and what she loved about it was that incredible enthusiasm about it that came out of him. She said that he totally let loose and let it all hang out. She commented that last week he was in his head a lot and was too serious, but this week, it all came out. She said he almost lost control a few times, but this is the direction he needs to stay in.

Len Goodman said that he is almost speechless and asked if it was time for Castle now? He said that any connection that had with a Jive was coincidence and that the technique wasn’t there. He said he liked the enthusiasm that he came out with, but it was a little bit wild and frantic.

Bruno Tonioli said they told him not to hold back and he definitely did not hold back. He said David is like a runaway train and the problem is that he went on the border of derailment. He said David lost some of the timing and technique, but he is starting to find his persona and he’s performing with confidence.

Judge’s Scores:

Carrie Ann: 6
Len: 6
Bruno: 6
Total: 18/30

What did you think of David and Kym’s Jive? Were they too harsh on him? Let us know your thoughts in the comments. If you’ve missed last night’s show, check out our recap here.

Last night’s Dancing With The Stars saw the elimination of professional dancer Karina Smirnoff and her partner Ralph Macchio. Upon our examination of the comments from our recap on the show, some thought it was unfair to oust the actor from the Semi-Finals show.

On Monday night’s show, Ralph and Karina performed the Argentine Tango first, scoring them a total of 25 points. For their second dance, they scored 23 points for their Salsa, which wasn’t as bad as the judges made it out to be. Bruno Tonioli even insulted Karina’s choice of attire, with a terrible comment. Afterward, they were pitted against Hines Ward and Kym Johnson for the first round of the newly implemented “Winner Takes All Cha Cha”.

Our friends at CelebDirtyLaundry made the suggestion that perhaps the judges were trying to rig the competition. We were thrown off by the addition of the “Winner Takes All Cha Cha”, considering that it put Chelsea over fan favorite Ralph with that extra fifteen points.

So, since the voting from the public didn’t come into play on Monday night’s show, do you think that the judges had their favorite to be in the finals? Do you think it was right of them to put Ralph up against Hines? Or would it have been more fair if Ralph went up against Kirstie? Let us know your thoughts!

Take our poll: Was the right couple eliminated on Tuesday night’s results show?

Last night’s semi-finals performances left us guessing who would be eliminated on tonight’s Dancing With The Stars results show!

A lot happened in last night’s show, but we’ll give you the quick low-down (Read our full recap here). Kym Johnson injured herself when partner Hines Ward dropped her on her neck. She still performed and they received excellent scores. Karina Smirnoff shook her butt with partner Ralph Macchio, but it was judge Bruno Tonioli’s rude comment that really sent people into shock.

Overall, Chelsea Kane and Mark Ballas had the best scores of the evening and Ralph and Karina were left at the bottom of the leaderboard. Who’s going to be eliminated in tonight’s show? Stay tuned as we cover the semi-finals LIVE! (continue reading…)

Dancing With The Stars professional dancer Kym Johnson isn’t letting an injury keep her down. The show must go on!

Kym was injured while practicing with partner Hines Ward on Friday. After taking a painful fall, she injured her neck and was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for tests. She has since been cleared for release, but is now wearing a neck brace.

She took to her official Facebook to thank fans. She said, “Thank you everyone for your concern, love and support. I’m a little shaken up, sore but I will be fine.”

She added, “I want to give a special thanks to everyone at Cedars-Sinai. The doctors, nurses and staff were so amazing.”

Reportedly, she will still continue to compete in the show. The performance round airs Monday night at 8pm on ABC.

Who are you rooting for? Let us know in the comments!

It’s elimination night on Dancing With The Stars and it’s really anyone’s game at this point!

Len asked to see Team Chelsea’s Cha Cha again and it’s still way better than the other team’s dance. This show really all boils down to the last three minutes, which the eliminated party is revealed. In the meantime, it’s really nothing more than just a ton of fluff.

Safe:

Hines Ward & Kym Johnson
Ralph Macchio & Karina Smirnoff
Romeo & Chelsie Hightower
Kirstie Alley & Maksim Chmerkovskiy
Chelsea Kane & Mark Ballas

Stay tuned for the rest of the scoop on who’s getting the boot from the show! Who are you rooting for???

Keep checking back as we update this space!

So who got eliminated on tonight’s show??? KENDRA WILKINSON & LOUIS VAN AMSTEL!

Last week, Chris Jericho was given the axe on Dancing With The Stars and the show is winding down little by little until we have a Mirrorball trophy winner. This week, the dancers are divided into two separate teams, Pink and Black and are led by dancing champions. (continue reading…)

Last week’s Dancing With The Stars saw the untimely ousting of Petra Nemcova and Dmitry Chaplin, so it’s really anyone’s guess as to who’s going home after tonight’s Guilty Pleasures night of dancing!

Kirstie Alley and Maksim Chmerkovskiy are up first, doing the Samba to Britney Spears’ song, Hit Me Baby One More Time. They did a good job with the dance and it looked like she was having fun! Len said she fulfilled her potential tonight and she did a great job. Bruno said she made the dance look easy and that her “wiggly bum sent shockwaves through the airwaves.” Carrie Ann said she wants to see Kirstie in the finals. Score: 26

(continue reading…)

We’re trying to stay positive that maybe this week Kendra Wilkinson will get the boot from Dancing With The Stars, so please internet, don’t let me down!

The judges wanted to see Romeo and Chelsie Hightower do their Foxtrot again. It was still great, we’re sure they’re not going anywhere.

SAFE:

Hines Ward & Kym Johnson
Chelsie Hightower & Mark Ballas
Ralph Macchio & Karina Smirnoff
Kendra Wilkinson & Louis Van Amstel
Kirstie Alley & Maksim Chmerkovskiy
Chris Jericho & Cheryl Burke

So who’s going home on tonight’s show???? PETRA NEMCOVA & DMITRY CHAPLIN!

On last week’s episode of Dancing With The Stars, we said goodbye to Sugar Ray Leonard! So who’s next on the chopping block??? It’s anyone’s guess! (They kept Kendra, remember that.)

Dancing first are Ralph Macchio and Karina Smirnoff, doing the Samba. The dance was awkward, but well done. Len said he needed to work on rhythm and Bruno agreed and said, “Give me sex, man.” Carrie Ann said the performance was entertaining. Score: 22 (continue reading…)

On last night’s Dancing With The Stars, reality actress Kendra Wilkinson and her dance partner Louis Van Amstel garnered the lowest scores of the night with an 18 our of 30 points. But, as we all know, that doesn’t mean that they are going to be sent packing at the end of the night!

Kristie Alley suffered a fumble, as her shoe became undone during her Waltz. She scored 22 points for herself and dancer Maksim Chmerkovskiy.

Being as this is pretty much a popularity contest, we’re going to fathom a guess that Sugar Ray Leonard bites the dust tonight. BUT — We could be wrong!

SAFE:

Ralph Macchio & Karina Smirnoff
Hines Ward & Kym Johnson
Chris Jericho & Cheryl Burke
Romeo & Chelsie Hightower
Kirstie Alley & Maksim Chmerkovskiy
Kendra Wilkinson & Louis Van Amstel
Petra Nemcova & Dmitry Chaplin

So, who was eliminated on tonight’s Dancing With The Stars? SUGAR RAY LEONARD & ANNA TREBUNSKAYA! Are you surprised???

Last week, Wendy Williams was ousted on Dancing With The Stars. This week, the dancers are doing the Paso Doble, the Waltz and the Viennese Waltz.

Dancing first are Romeo and Chelsie Hightower, doing the Paso Doble. He aced the dance, showing all kinds of intense emotion and hard work. The judges agreed, saying that it was an action-packed, great performance. Score: 23
(continue reading…)

Last week, we said goodbye to Mike Catherwood and Lacey Schwimmer. This week, we’ll see who survives and gets the axe on Dancing With The Stars!

Tonight, the stars and dancers are doing a dance that tells a personal story. (continue reading…)

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???
