6th week of stumbles on Dancing with the Stars
This 6th week of competition is starting to show which stars are in it for the long haul and which ones are stumbling around. The stars performed free dance routines of dances they previously haven’t done. From a Fox Trot to Viennese Waltz the stars danced their feet off. Except there were some stars stumbling around.
I don’t know if the physicality of dancing is getting to the stars but some stars are starting to show wear and tear. Unfortunately, my gal, Shannon Elizabeth, is stumbling around and not dancing up to her potential. She tearfully claims she wants to stick around so she can see Derek every week (oh, boo hoo) which is just a ploy to get votes – where have I seen this before, hmmm?
Then there is Marlee who is also struggling. The latin dances are not her style. While I can understand that she can’t hear the beat of the music, it is just that she is not up to the same level as say Kristi Yamaguchi, Mario, Jason Taylor or even Cristian. All of these stars had a wonderful performance last night.
I loved Cristian’s fox trot. His dance was reminiscent of Fred Astaire, or as he said “Fredreco Aistaire.” He looked so dashing and handsome and took me back to those old movies where Fredreco and Ginger Rogers danced. Great job Cristian.
Mario’s hot and passionate rumba left Bruno needing a cold shower! All I can say is “get a room!”
Marissa danced the Viennese Waltz with great sophistication and confidence and did look like a princess. I loved the music – Tom Jones song “Delilah.” Good choice.
Then there was the group country dance. It looked like fun but really didn’t show me anything about the stars. They all looked as if they were stumbling around out of control. Lots of high energy but it wasn’t my most favorite group dance.
Tonite one of the stars will be eliminated from the show. The lowest score went to Marlee Matlin with 21 points. Is this the night that Marlee leaves the competition? Or will her fans save her to dance another day? Or will Shannon Elizabeth be torn away from her beloved Derek to see him no more?
My prediction is Shannon, but I’m definitely leaning more towards Marlee. What a great way to say “maybe” don’t you think?
Until later,
Linda
