Oy veh.  :::sigh:::  Alright, I’ve mentioned in at least two previous posts the possibility of Donnie Osmond being part of Season 9 of Dancing with the Stars. None of it came from actual sources, just his own proclamations from seasons past that he would LOVE to do the show, like his sister did.  He’s been oft rumored, but never a reality – maybe because he was too loud about it, I dunno.  Well today, twitter is starting to tweet about Donnie being confirmed as a cast member for Season 9 – via Norm Clarke, Las Vegas Gossip Journalist.  Why do I lament and sigh? Well, there haven’t been many rumors about him this time around, compared to some of the others I’ve talked about – until today. Now, that silence is much more troubling than the out and out campaigning, simply because in my eyes it makes it more likely to be TRUE. Dang it. :-)

Don’t get me wrong – when I was VERY young, I loved Donny and Marie. Or so I’m told – college killed those particular brain cells. Several times over. And you know what? Donnie seems like a very nice man, with a really good singing voice. But here’s my issue – the huge fanbase the Osmonds have.  It’s a killer. It sent Jennie home too early (yes, I am a Derek fan so I am particularly bitter :-) ).  I don’t want ONE contestant to dominate the entire show. Please. No.

Okay, now the Macy Gray thing is totally based on a tweet I saw and that person could just be doing hallucinogens or something. ;-)   But it is Carmit Bachar, an ex-Pussycat Doll doing the talking, so who knows?

Are these people spilling the beans or just WISHING?? Are they testing Twitter to see how fast the rumors travel the net – and I’m helping (I can hope, right?)? You be the judge!!  :-)   Here you go:

I just had another thought (be afraid). If some of these rumors are true, such as Brandy, Ray J, Donny, Macy, Lynda Carter, Lou Ferrigno, and Aaron Carter, we will have this assemblage of music people who are quite popular combined with pop culture icons who go straight to the heart of DWTS typcial demographic – this could generate some serious voting and prevent one single celeb (ie Donny) from dominating the voting whether he’s a good dancer or not. This is getting GOOD!! :-) I hope.

      Hydie where did you learn how to spell??? It’s not D-O-N-N-I-E it’s Donny. GET it?? When Donny is on he will blow you away. YOU will love what you see.

      LOL. Whatever. If he blows me away with his dancing, fine – but if he sucks and still gets the votes I will be ticked off. And if he annoys the hell out of me like he did when his sister was on, all bets are off.

      You obviously haven’t seen or heard about his vegas show. or seen anything he’s done. Since before you entered college. Hydie, Why don’t you look up the wierd al and donny youtube link. You’l get a kick out of it.

      Well, Donny ought to be good since he’s already said he’s taken ballroom dance classes with Anna Trebunskya for the last year and a half. That’s what I think is BS!! Between his advanced training and gigantic fanbase, we might as well hand him the trophy now and call it a season. It ruins the season, just like with Kristi and Shawn, when you have one contestant who’s fanbase cannot be overcome no matter how great the other contestants dance.

      You misspelled “you’ll” and “weird”. ;-)

    8. # Heidi commented on August 15th, 2009:

      EXACTLY!! You read my mind. And watch Anna T come back and be his partner on the show – that would just figure. Bigger ringer than Kristi could ever hope to be. All we can hope for is that someone better will be on the show.

      Ballroom training – I thought that was against the rules? Maybe this rumor is wrong – I will be praying very, very hard. ;-) People were mad about Melissa and she didn’t have actual ballroom training – except maybe when she was 10.

      Yep! I did. But! Hydie, I didn’t go to college either. And I barely finished hish School.
      I am not saying hand him the trophy. All I am saying is give him a chance. For he is far more talented than either of you realize or give him credit. Thats the reason he aint going away like the others. Who just fell into a drug bliss.
