   I also think Erin might last longer than a lot of people expect. She’s my dark horse this season.

   i feel like the first people to go (in no particular order ) would be: Kate, Buzz, Jake and Aiden!! For the last to stay i guess i need more to see than a few seconds rehearsal video, but i totally agree that nicole and evan are now in the lead for me and i hope they stay so we would see a great battle in the finals! that would be awsoooooome! the Battle of the Giants!!

   Yep, Katrina, I have Erin in my final four. I think this is going to be a much tougher season than some are predicting. I think it is Evan’s to lose, but between Erin and Nicole…and possibly Chad or Aiden?? It’s going to come down to a couple things – the pro, the choreography and the likeability of the star. I think Erin and Nicole will be tied on likeability. I think Chad could rub a lot of people the wrong way. Derek is arguably the most popular MALE pro the show has right now, plus I think he beats maks in terms of choreography. With a partner like Nicole, I think the two of them have a serious shot – but I would NOT count out Erin or Chad.

   Really, as long as Derek makes final four, I’m happy. But I sure would love another trophy – because I just think this might be it for him. Could be wrong.

   Oh, I hope you’re right, Heidi. I also would make it a final FIVE by adding Chad . . . with the scant information on their dancing we have at this stage. This will be quite a season to watch.

   However, I think a season is B O R I N G with a huge “B” when there’s an obvious winner from the get go (e.g., Kristi). This season has TWO such ringers (add Nicole), and I hope their status jumps up to bite them with the voters. The sweat and blood the less schooled folks go through seems cruel if there’s no chance at all. Both Nicole and Evan deserve to be left behind simply because they have such a huge head start on the field.

   Frankly if Nicole and Derek won this year, the entire “reality” of this show would be proven to be a sham. She should go the route that Mario L, Mel B, and Joey F went . . . out in the end.

   Oops. I should have said Final Four with Chad, sorry.

6. # John commented on March 18th, 2010:

   Mel, Joey, Lance, Mya all were favorites and did not win. Nicole is no different but with Evan, Erin, and Chad, good competitive season. Unlike when Shawn, Donny and Kristi were on, no one could touch their fan bases. Nicole is not a Kristi or Shawn for Derek. Mark’s two wins broke “reality” for me a few seasons ago. Erin has potential since her dance experience seems to be less public and people are focusing on Nicole and Evan instead. Then you have Chad who can rub people the wrong way but he can move with Cheryl who is a proven winner and I do not mean by results but because I think she is next to Derek in having the best record on the show. Jake will last for awhile because he has Bachelor fans and Chelsie. You never know with Shannen because she has been on t.v. all her life. Niecy will be entertaining but I wonder if her loud personality will get tiresome to viewers. Final four should be Evan, Nicole, Erin and Chad.

   I’m excited to see Niecy dance, she just seems like such a fun person.

   Also, does anyone know the song that they play at the end of the promo commercial for DWTS?
   I’m dying to know what it is, but I can’t find it.

   Joanie, if anything you said was true, Mya wouldn’t have made it to second place last season – and she didn’t NOT win because of previous dance experience, she didn’t win because she was up against Donny Osmond. I don’t believe the general viewing audience either knows or cares about previous dance experience.

   Reality show? Be serious. There have been ringers who have won and ringers who haven’t every single season except S7 with Brooke and Derek. There is nothing new here. These celebrities come on this show to UP THEIR PROFILE, to revive their careers. Winning is just a side bonus. It’s their FANS that want them to win. A Sham if Derek and Nicole win? You’re forgetting, or conveniently ignoring, an awful lot of history. What about Evan? What about Erin’s previous dance experience – it’s just as big as Nicole’s. What about Donny Osmond with the massive fan base? What about Shawn Johnson with her massive fan base? I called Shawn Johnson the winner of her season before the first dance was even seen on TV. Same with Kristi and with Donny. This is not a new thing. The ONLY new thing here is that Derek is the one who finally got the ringer.

9. # Princess Heidi commented on March 19th, 2010:

   Well, John, I think you can take Mya out of your group of favorites who didn’t win – she certainly would have won if not for a much bigger ringer in Donny Osmond. Similar situation for Erin and Nicole – Evan’s fanbase trumps theirs easily, so if they don’t win it won’t be because the viewing public frowned on their previous experience like some seem to think. I think that’s ridiculous. They don’t win because Evan has a much larger, more passionate fanbase, pure and simple. People don’t vote AGAINST dancers, they vote FOR their favorites.

   I also don’t get why people focus on Derek getting good partners when Cheryl is right up there with him – she’s definitely a threat for the final with Chad. Jake? Yeah, he was the Bachelor, but he kinda pissed off the bulk of the audience by picking the wrong girl. Shannen has a tremendous fear of live audiences, so I worry about her falling apart. We’ll see. And I agree about Niecy.

    Princess Heidi,
    “People don’t vote AGAINST dancers, they vote FOR their favorites.”

    That’s not completely true. Usually about half way through the season some fan group gets upset that their celebrity was sent home and so you can find them voting against someone. Or they just don’t like something one of the celebrities and so they vote against them. Happens every season. Although, rarely happens until about midway through the season.

11. # Princess Heidi commented on March 19th, 2010:

    Well, I can’t relate to the mindset of voting against one of the couples. I will, however, vote like CRAZY against a fan group that is being over obnoxious – like Melissa’s was in her year. It got to the point where her fans were so nasty that I would vote for anyone but her. But usually I just wouldn’t vote. That’s what some fans forget when they act like idiots – yeah, my favorite may go off the show but I may or may NOT continue to vote.
