Out of the gate, we had Chelsie and Romeo doing a Paso Doble and O.M.G. ON MY FEET here!! Ok, granted, I love the music, which I expected to totally distract me from the performance, but maaaan Lil' hot, timid, add my twitter Romeo had it going on! The musicality was fabulous, the chemistry dead on, all of it, even the weird posture and the lift (whatever Carrie Ann, that ring has gone to your head or something) completely rocked my world!!
Louis and Anna and Sugar Ray were third to dance and also did a Viennese Waltz to music of my favorite composer. YAY! Well, then again, not so yay for them. First of all, Anna is gonna need to find some benzos, either for her or for me to sit and watch her constant stressing out and discipline. She said she didn't have time to be nice and then said she wasn't trying to be mean. Um yeah, ok. Seriously, though, was it just me or did the dance look like a vaudeville act?? Sugar Ray is still lighting up the room with his smile and he really looks like he's enjoying himself, but I just don't feel a ton of DANCE happening out there with them. Next to dance was Dmitry and Petra, dancing the Paso Doble. It was hard for me to focus on them because the music was so heavy and dramatic, though she did a really good job, especially since she doesn't have the nasty wretch card to play lol! She's just gonna keep getting the gorgeous, humble, precious point from me, for the time being. Karina and Ralph danced a waltz, something I wasn't looking forward to, in spite of the great music they were given, b/c the waltz just isn't my favorite thing to watch. They totally nailed the dance!! Beautiful, absolutely beautiful and any doubts I had as to Ralph's competitiveness were wiped away last night! I was totally sucked into their storytelling from the first dramatic movement to the final step. ::huge applause:: Kym and Hines were one of the last few couples to dance, with a Paso Doble and let me just say, COLOR ME A STEELERS FAN BABEEEEE!!!! WOOT!!! Hines Ward is just hot, hot, hot and their Paso was so frickin awesome! Can this night get any better? He is tryin to become my prediction to take home the mirror ball trophy, I tell ya. I wonder if he'll stop by to let me see it? HHHMMM. Mark and Chelsie did a Viennese Waltz and, though they will remain one of my faves, probably throughout the season, it was sorta weird lol! I agreed with both Len and Bruno, who had opposite views. It *was* too modern of an interpretation for that classical dance, but then again, Chelsie is such a terrific dancer I forget she's not a pro. I find that remarkable. I still ♥ them and hope the final three ends up being these two, Ralph & Karina and Kym & Hines. That's my dream team, so far. Cheryl and Chris were second to last to dance and had to do the Paso Doble. FINALLY, in the last 25 seconds or so, Chris woke up. It was, literally, as if someone flipped a switch. His movements were sharp and timing right on, it all just flowed. I think Len had it backwards, though. Not sure who or what week he was watching. I suggest more prune juice for that one. Last to dance was Maks and Kirstie dancing the waltz. The poor girl was plagued this week with a shoe that fell off. In typical Kirstie fashion, though, she took it in stride and didn't miss a beat. It wasn't the greatest waltz ever, but her resilience just continues to impress. Besides, I think that every second is spent using great restraint not to attack Maks and, well come on, who can't understand that?? Check back in a couple of hours for an update on who was eliminated this week.
SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT!!!!Sugar Ray and Anna were voted off this week!!!
Wow good Job, very funny. I enjoyed reading it even though it took me a sec to know what DWTS stood for...lol I don't watch it but loved your commentary!
