Dancing With The Stars: Another Man Down – Spolier Alert

Only four celebrities left on Dancing with the Stars. I remember before the season started, I told Mark Ballas he would go far with Bristol Palin.

I had a feeling she would have a huge following. But even in my wildest dreams I would not have expected Bristol and Mark to make it to the semi-finals given the scores the couple has received from the judges to date.

But to have outlasted athletes such as Rick Fox and tonight’s exitee, NFL superstar Kurt Warner, now, that is either impressive or mind-boggling depending on which camp you fall under: The camp that roots for the underdog or the camp that is at a loss on how this young girl from Alaska has more fans dialing in to vote for her than celebs two or three times her age, with more perceived popularity and who have achieved far many more accomplishments.

Regardless, nice guy Kurt Warner has danced his last dance. And Kurt left Tuesday night’s results show with as much class as he has shown all season. He said,

“You know, I learned a long time ago that life isn’t always about winning and losing competitions. But it’s about relationships, it’s about impacting people—and so I thank everybody at Dancing With the Stars because it gave me an opportunity to impact people and build relationships. So that’s really what it’s all about.”

So,  now, Brandy, Jennifer Grey, Kyle Massey or (take a deep breath) Bristol Palin will win the much sought after mirrorball trophy. Who do you think it will be? Who do you think it should be?

Dancing With The Stars: With Only Two Weeks Left, A Couple Finally Scores A Perfect 30.

All week long, the Dancing with the Stars cast members have been dreading the new evil-torture-tactic spawned on them by the producers of DWTS: The Instant Dance!

What is Instant Dance you ask? Instant Dance on tonight’s show meant that for one of their two dances, each of the five remaining contestants found out which song they’d be dancing to only minutes before the live performance. Sounds brutal. But, all their week-long fears were for naught because almost everyone actually performed better during their feared-performance.
Jennifer Grey even scored the season’s first perfect score of 30 on her Instant Dance rumba to Foreigner’s Waiting for a Girl Like You.

Jennifer, who is still fighting tendinitis in her left knee, also received rave reviews for her first dance, the quickstep, and scored a 27.

Brandy was ever-so-close to getting a perfect 30 as well, scoring two 10’s on her waltz from both Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli, but not from Carrie Ann Inaba who gave her a 9. Brandy and Maksim Chmerkovskiy then drew Katy Perry’s Teenage Dream for their cha-cha.

How’d they do on their cha-cha? Pretty good, landing a 28.
Bristol Palin surprised all with the Argentine tango as far as technicality is concerned, but still could not nail the artistic aspect of the dance, matching her last week’s score of 24. She got a 23 on her second dance, the samba. 8’s almost all around for the girl from Alaska.
Carrie Ann said that Kyle Massey’s first dance, the waltz, was “a fairytale come to life.” Kyle scored a respectable 27 for his participation in Carrie Ann’s fairytale. For their second dance, Kyle got handed Good Golly Miss Molly as his surprise song, and as usual, his personality shined through. He got two 10’s out of Carrie Ann and Bruno and 9 from Len for a total of 29.
Poor Kurt Warner. Bruno told him right off: “Obviously, there are people that are better than you, but you’ve come a long way!” For their first dance, Kurt got a disappointing 24. Then, Kurt got a surprise song he had never heard of before, Hella Good and just like the song, he danced hella good, but again ended with a 24.

Here’s the leaderboard, combining both dances:

Brandy & Maks Chmerkovskiy: 57 (29, 28)
Jennifer Grey Derek Hough 57 (27, 30)
Kyle Massey & Lacey Schwimmer: 56 (27, 29)
Kurt Warner & Anna Trebunskaya 48 (24, 24)
Bristol Palin & Mark Ballas 47 (24, 23)

Another star goes home tomorrow! Who do you think it will be?

Dancing With The Stars Elimination Results – SPOILER ALERT!

Another unexpected celeb exit for Dancing with the Stars tonight.  Who do you think should have gone home? Chances are, you won’t guess the right star.

Before we get to the spoiler results, check out the picture Kyle Massey Tweeted earlier tonight with Kurt Warner and Rod Stewart. Pretty cool!

Ok–back to the results! After the votes were tabulated, it was Rick Fox who was sent packing, despite the fact that the judges had told him last night that he had danced his “best dance yet.” Rick had also received his best individual score and even a 10 from guest judge Hélio Castroneves!

“It’s been a transformational journey for me,” Fox said, his voice breaking down a bit. “It’s been amazing. My relationship has transformed with my girlfriend, my daughter—it’s the most enjoyable time having her here and sharing this with me.”
