The Situation is put out of his misery on Dancing With The Stars


“>
 

I thought “Guidios” were supposed to own the dance floor?

Oh well, guess some people have no rhythm (just ask ex Dancing For A Cheque contestant Kate Gosselin).

The Situation was pretty steamed at his score and the judges remarks the night before, storming off camera in the post results interview.  Tonight he admitted that although he tried, he is not a dancer. 

Something tells me The Sitch’s co-stars on Jersey Shore will never let him live this down.

Dancing With The Stars says ciao to Cho

Margaret Cho (who’s way better at making people laugh than she is at dancing), got the boot tonight on Dancing For A Cheque.

Although Magaret sort of barely improved in the three weeks she was on, it wasn’t enough to save her from the chopping block tonight.

Embracing her inner sob sister upon hearing the news (what is it with this show and people getting emotional?) Margaret said, “I thought the judges were really hard on me, but I think they were hard on me because they could see that I am a dancer, for real. I thank you for that. I will take that with me forever. Thank you so much. … Thank you for the opportunity to let me dance.”

Three down, eight to go. Who will be next?  My money’s on Bristol Palin or The Situation.

DWTS – Michael Bolton gets the boot, & “Boo-gate” gets addressed


“>

 

To the surprise of no-one, the geriatric crooner and worlds most awkward dancer since Kate Gosselin was given his walking papers tonight in a clear cut case of self defense for that mess that was supposed to be a jive.  It’s been downhill for Michael ever since he cut his hair.

In other DWTS news, turns out the audience was booing at the score given to Jennifer Grey and Derek Hough for their performance and not at Mama bear Sarah Palin (or at least that’s how it was edited to look/hear).

What makes this all the more interesting is that ABC went to the trouble of trying to clear up any question about it.  Looks like someone at the network wants to keep the Palin clan happy.  Do they know something we don’t?

Boo-gate cover up on Dancing with the Stars


“>

 

It has it all. Politics! Has-beens! Never-weres! Dancing! Drama!

Last night on Dancing For A Cheque, Mama Grizzly Sarah Palin showed up in person to support her tubby little cub, Bristol the Pistol (I kid you not, this is what Sarah actually called her).

Bristol actually wasn’t bad, but the drama actually revolved around Jennifer Grey and Derek Hough.  Sarah was introduced right after they finished and the judges had given them their score.  The spin host Tom Bergeron and ABC is giving is that the audience was booing over the pair’s score of 24 out of 30 for their routine.

Maybe.

But!  If you look at the expression on Sarah’s face in the video, the boos seem to be having a bit of an effect on her.  Maybe the audience just didn’t like her ensemble?

Dancing With The Stars is now Hoff-less

Famous drunk person David Hasselhoff was voted of Dancing For A Cheque last night by viewers.  Bummer.

It came down to Kurt Warner (ex football player, personal friend of Jebus), Kyle Massey (don’t know, don’t care), The Situation (who given the chance, will end up coming in second to Jennifer Grey) and The Hoff.  

The Hoff handled the news with his usual aplomb, saying “”It’s been a great ride,” … “I feel bad for Kym [his dancing partner]because she worked hard trying to get me where I was going. I’m so proud that my daughters are here and they got to see me come this far.”

On the plus side with the Hoff’s departure from the competition, the network is now clear to put the hand sanitizer back out from under lock and key.

Dancing For A Cheque kicks off

Nobody puts Baby (or her old nose) in the corner!

Jennifer Grey (after a brief meltdown regarding Patrick Swayze) showed the over contestants how it’s done with partner Derek Hough.  Girl got moves. 

Bristol Palin surprisingly didn’t totally suck and scored three 6′s from the judges.  Obviously witchcraft was involved in this.  Mother Sarah was a no show in the audience as well.  Coincidence?  I think not.

Rounding out the bottom three last night with scores of 15 each were Margaret Cho (who’s routine verged on parody it was so bad), Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino (he had the least amount of time to rehearse, but the Saturday Night Fever-esque moves should stay in the 70′s), and The Hoff (as one judge put it, “It’s never too early to panic.”)

Who gets the boot tonight is any-one’s guess.  At this point it’s more about personality (or lack thereof) than talent.  Stay tuned….

The pouf is dead! Long live the pouf!

Snooki debuted a sleeker hairstyle at the MTV VMA’s Sunday night that, dare I say, actually look pretty decent (pit about the rest of the ensemble).  Apparently the orange one has outgrown the pouf, having worn it since she was sixteen.  “I want to look more mature” Snooki told People.

In other Jersey Shore news, there seems to be growing division amongst the Guidos, specifically with The Situation stemming from his gig on Dancing For A Cheque.  Word is the abtastic Guido is getting too big for his britches for the other cast members liking.  “Mike doesn’t have any game.  He thinks he does, but he doesn’t”, Snooki told the tabloid, the irony clearly lost on her.

Will The Situation’s success outside of Jersey Shore make a failure of their made for reality TV home?  Stay tuned…

Bristol Palin and her “modest” DWTS outfit

The suddenly orange looking Bristol Palin made news again after insisting that her Dancing For A Cheque With The Stars outfits be modest “becasue that’s who I am” last week.  Right.  

ABC has released promo photos of the “stars” and their dancing partners.  That’s modest?  To be fair, her boobs aren’t hanging out and from what I can tell of that outfit, her hoo-hoo isn’t in danger of getting photographed, so this is probably as modest as it gets for DWTS

Will we get all sorts of juicy “Bristol is a super-bitch diva on the set” stories like we did with Kate Gosselin this past winter?  Bristol told Jay Leno the other night while making the media rounds to promote the show that (much like Kate proved with her own dancing) she’s “uncoordinated” and doesn’t have any rythm.” 

Stay tuned.

Well, I started all this with you so I might as well finish it to it’s conclusion., no?

According to E!, other has-beens, never weres, and also rans competing for the Mirrorball prize this season on Dancing for a Cheque With The Stars will be funny woman Margaret Cho, Jennifer (“No one puts Baby in the corner”) Grey, Rick Fox, Michael Bolton and Mrs Brady herself, Florence Henderson.

ABC is neither confirming or denying any of these people’s involvement in the show prior to their official announcement on Monday (in other words, bingo).

No Dancing for Kirstie Alley

Boo! 

I think she would have a fun addition to the show.  However, Kirstie shot down the rumours on Thursday, Tweeting, “Just a rumour.  Imagine that, NOT doing DWTS this season…Way too chicken.  Maybe next season if Im invited again!”

I should have known.  This is what I get for repeating info from one of the more notorious bottom feeding tabloids. 

Meh.  It happens.
