DWTS Season 10 – The ET Interview…
…with Susan Lucci, Cameron Matheson and Rebecca Budig. I don’t think this particular interview really reveals anything. Cameron clearly uses the word IF on number of occassions. That said, I prefer the “evil” idea of putting her with Maks to see if she could try to push him around. 🙂
For those of you not convinced (or properly terrified of the idea) of Kate Gosselin, I present this (please god false) tidbit of information from Extra:
Giving new meaning to the phrase ‘shake it mama,’ mom of six Kate Gosselin is reportedly lacing up her dancing shoes to compete on ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars.”
Intrepid entertainment reporter and co-host of Los Angeles’ KEARTH 101’s morning show Lisa Stanley reports Kate is practicing her two step at the famed Beverly Wilshire Hotel. Stanley says the reality show star is “under a shroud of security,” boning up on her bossa nova at the posh hotel.
Well, first off, they said “mom of SIX”, so the article is already incorrect about something. Again, the producers would have had to officially lose it to invite her. I can’t blame her for wanting to be on the show (I do too!), but come on, let’s be reasonable.
It is sad when the cast of Celebrity Apprentice is better than any of the rumored names for Dancing with the Stars.
Maybe it will be, maybe it won’t – but either way Celebrity Apprentice is a crap show.
I am not a fan of Kate but I ahve to admit this is a good thing for ratings. Plus its better than having her ex-husband on the show (I am so sick of seeing him in the tabloids w his latest girlfriend). As for the celeb apprentice cast being better i disagree. I would rather see Kate or the girl from AMC than Brett Michaels agin on TV.
YOU WANT MAKS TO HAVE KATE G??? Oh, dear, Heidi. Hasn’t he has enough seasons of non-contenders????? Maks is the energy and sparkle for DWTS, in my view. He’s funny and joking with everyone, letting himself be the butt of jokes, but keeping the show upbeat. He’s sooooo pleasing to watch and gentlemanly and expert with his partners — despite the “Bad Boy role” DWTS wants to paint for him. As Misty said, “The world needs more Maksims.”
And haven’t we had our fill of the little kids (Mark B and Derek H). Their egos need some reality time don’t you agree?
Of course I don’t agree with you, Joanie. That’s just silly. You have your preference, I have mine. Mark and Derek’s egos are no bigger than Maks – in fact, the very suggestion makes me laugh. Maks is no shrinking violet, nor is he the humble pro of the cast. Unlike some, however, I don’t find that to be a problem. If having a healthy ego is a problem, I suggest you follow a different pro. Maybe Kym would be more appropriate. 🙂
Oh, and in case you didn’t get it, I was replying to someone else’s idea of putting Maks with Kate, thinking it sounded like it would be FUN. And it would be – she couldn’t push him around. I’m sure you don’t have to worry, though – they give Derek the celebs with potential problems these days. Not his fault he handles it like a PRO.
Seriously, I’m kind of sick of people making snappy accusations about how those who aren’t their faves have humungous egos without even giving any supporting evidence. Okay, Mark I can understand because all he ever tweets about anymore is his EP (which isn’t THAT horrible). Derek on the other hand (and I’m NOT just saying this because I’m guilty of favoritism) hasn’t shown any real signs of having a huge ego. I have asked time and time again for people who accuse him of so to give me examples and they always suddenly disappear after I ask. How sad that these kinds of people enjoy talking down people that haven’t even done anything wrong. Not to mention it’s not like we even know DWTS people personally, so who are we to judge?
Celebrity Apprentice is a crap show which makes it even sadder that the better show, Dancing with the Stars, cannot get legitimate stars. Kate Gosselin? How is she a ratings draw? Her show’s ratings went down the toilet. People are tired of her and her husband. Maybe she needs to spend more time with her 8 kids.
I’m curious… and just speculating here… that in the past seasons by this time we have a very good idea of who is in the cast… and the stars end up being “less than stellar”
What if (and I’m just speculating) in this case the stars “could” be bigger names, and as thus are kept under a tighter lid for it? The cast is already smaller which means that there is more money floating around as a basis of celeb payment. So IF the cast is smaller the producers are able to pay each celeb more than average? Which means they could potentially afford bigger names now?
Just speculating here… I mean if they are able to get Donny Osmond on the show… I’m sure there are other bigger names that are wanting a piece of the pie but the show couldn’t afford them originally?
I’ve never been of the impression that money is the reason they can’t bigger names. I’ve always thought that they can’t get bigger names because people with bigger names have no real reason to go on the show. Now, since it’s become so popular maybe that has changed – but this show is more of a launching (or re-launching) pad for other things. Are there “bigger names” that they would be able to coerce into doing the show? Maybe. I guess we’ll see.
