Dancing with the Stars – is the world a better place?
Last nite’s Dancing with the Stars showcased the Mambo and Quick Step by the men and women stars. But does this show make the world a better place? Well that’s what Steve Guttenberg thinks. I think his enthusiasm just reflects what many of the stars enjoy about the show and includes the sentiment of the audience as well. As for me, I just like watching the show for its pure entertainment and fast pace. Does this make the world a better place? Maybe?
What I’m learning from the show is that all the stars need to bring with them the passion, fun and excitement of learning how to dance. A couple of stars are not showing me this and it certainly reflects in their dances.
Take for instance Penn Jillette. I think he was trying to be funny last nite in some of his comments and actions, but I found it more negative. He even sounded darn right mad at the judges. But Penn, your Quick Step was awful. Your footwork was atrocious and watching you dance is pure agony to me. Your score of 16 was a present to you, you should be thankful. Maybe your agony will end this week.
Then there was Monica Seles’ Mambo. It looked more like a tennis match than a dance. Monica is just not getting the idea. The judges told her to connect with the music and work on the technicality of the dances. Can she walk and chew gum at the same time? Her score was 15 and I really don’t think she’ll make it through next week.
Last nite’s three shining stars were Jason Taylor – the King of the Mambo as Len said – and Kristi “shake and bake it honey” Yamaguchi, and Mario’s Quick Step. Fantastic performances and I know they will be around for a long time.
One last word, I really like Shannon Elizabeth’s Quick Step. She has a great personality. She puts all her enthusiasm in her dances that are dynamic and fun to watch. I’m in your corner Shannon!
The other stars performed okay but since Tuesday is the elimination day for two stars here is my prediction. Penn Jillette is gone and so is Monica Seles. Just don’t have IT for Dancing with the Stars.
Until later,
Linda
