Kristy Yamaguchi should be taking home the mirror ball trophy in tomorrow’s finale of Dancing with the Stars, unless the voters were distracted from her dancing by the bare chests of either Jason Taylor or Cristià¡n de la Fuente.  Both male finalists had to bring out the sex appeal big time in hopes of [...]

The big news this week on the show was that during his second routine, Cristià¡n de la Fuente injured his arm. He tried to dance through it, but by the end he was visibly grabbing his arm and kind of dropped his partner Cheryl Burke at the end. The preliminary diagnosis was [...]

Jason Taylor and Edyta Sliwinska -(Cha Cha Cha): Jason kept his head looking down too much during his solo dancing, looking at his feet or Edyta’s feet, which I found distracting. The choreography was fun, though. Scores: 8/8/8
Shannon Elizabeth and Derek Hough - (Rumba): That was one beautiful routine. [...]

The dancers really upped their game this week and the judges finally handed out some 10s this week.  If you didn’t watch, you may be surprised who were the dancers who picked them up.
Kristi Yamaguchi and Mark Ballas - (Paso Doble): I really loved this routine. I thought that Kristi really had the acting [...]

Helio Castroneves was the star of the night, pulling off two high scoring performances, including scoring a perfect 30 on his quick step.  Mel B. was pretty close behind, thanks to her hot mambo.  Here are my thoughts on all the routines:

This week on Dancing with the Stars we saw our second perfect 30, this time going to Mel B. and Maksim Chmerkovski for their Rumba.

Co-host Samantha Harris returned to the show after three weeks of maternity leave. She looked great for having just given birth, but was a little awkward in her interviews, stumbling a bit on the questions with the [...]

This week on Dancing with the Stars, the couples danced either the Jive or the Tango.
Sabrina Bryan, Mel B, and Jane Seymour all tied with the top scores this week, each receiving 27 points. Of those three, I think I liked Sabrina’s best, although overall I liked Marie Osmond and Jennie Garth’s routine the [...]
