Round 3 of Dancing with the Stars
Round 3 of Dancing with the Stars was filled with Tangos and Jives. This week’s performance by the stars was hard to judge because they all seemed to progress nicely in their technicality and performances.
Kristi Yamaguchi and Mark danced an excellent Tango and the judges gave her the highest score of the week of 27. But as Carrie Ann said her performance was one dimensional in emotions. Lighten up Kristi this isn’t ice skating its dancing.
Priscilla Presley and Louis received the next highest score of 26. The judges said that her dance was filled with passion, drama, fire and ice. So if Priscilla can show these emotions even with a botched face lift and bad Botox, I’m sure Kristi you can do better.
The rest of the stars’ scores were 21 to 25 points. They showed improvement and I really think these were fair scores. I am very impressed with Marlee Matlin, who is deaf, dancing the Jive. Her routine was difficult and yet she kept up with the music even though she couldn’t hear it. She is my hero for this week. Great job Marlee!
Did you check out those “hammers” on Cristian de la Fuente? His costume certainly brought that out nicely. At least this week Cristian was smiling and had more facial expressions – his performance was great and he received a 25.
Even Adam Carolla and Steve Guttenberg’s dance performances showed a lot of improvement. Both men joked around after their performances. Adam made a smart remark about his grandfather telling him if he wanted to learn a proper Tango to dance with a 19 year old who was a Mormon – Julianne is his dance partner who is 19 and a Mormon. Kinda lame joke wasn’t it?
And Steve put a soup pot on his head and wore goggles to deflect the criticism from the judges. Tom Bergeron joked back that he also suggested wearing a cup. That was kinda cute.
Unfortunately, there was no joking around for Marissa and Tony. The judges were very hard on Marissa about her performance. They said her performance was on cruise control and lacked any type of performance and her technically wasn’t sharp. Even her dance instructor Tony said that she is doing the best she can. Well when your instructor says that, you know things are not going well.
So my prediction for which star is gone this week is Marissa. I think she will be taking her last curtain call tonite and leave Dancing with the Stars.
Until later,
Linda
