DWTS Season 10, Week 5 – ABC Local Affiliate on the Performance Show
More and more Erin just sounds catty. I’m not digging it. And Kate is pissed off? Please. The truth is often painful. Jake – I don’t EVER want to hear the words “tea bag” come out of your mouth ever again. π Everyone jumped Nicole’s case last week – anyone gonna have a go at the others for all the bitching and moaning in this video? π
i’m going to copy my comment from the last post to here because is about Erin interview;
“iβm so getting tired of Erin and Maks, is not cute anymore,it is not funny anymore, and i just saw a interview that they did togheter for george from abc, and they were all bitch about how the judges fall for Jake and Chelsie, stop with the complaing and just dance,iβm done with then, you donβt like he judges score this is your problem but bitching about other couple is ridiculous.”
Heidi I think you just cannot feel how totally unfair the contest feels when whatever the two ringers do is WONDERFUL — even tho Derek’s tango was like a quickstep by a racehorse.
It is totally angry making . . . please do not tell you that you agree that Erin has made no progress since week one. That’s the effect of you saying her disillusionment is unfounded.
And pardon me Jennifer, but how is it that Jake is air humping in his tightie whities and slipping all over the floor and gets huge praise from the judges? It’s WHACK! And deserves indignation!
You call it bitching, I call it righteous indignation. Mileage varies.
It’s bitching. Question is – why is she throwing Jake under the bus? Because she can’t pick on either Nicole or Evan because they were fantastic? They were fantastic – they weren’t over scored and Erin knows it. So she goes after Jake. If she wants to bitch about the judging that’s fine and dandy – EVERYONE is entitled to do that, including us. But she is throwing a fellow competitor under the bus and complaining about HIM in addition to the judging. That’s pretty tacky. Keep your comments to Len being an asshole and leave Jake out of it. That’s far worse than anything Nicole ever did, and yet you’re excusing it. I see we have a pretty serious double standard here.
throwing a fellow competitor under the bus is not cool, i don’t remenber people doing this on the show, that is just wrong, Erin lost all her points with me .
When it comes to Erin, I keep wondering why more people don’t ever complain about her having four years of dance experience with a collegiate dance team? I’ve heard complaints about contestants with less experience than that.
I can understand being frustrated by Jake’s high scores which I think were higher than he deserved, but if she improves she can easily top him. Heaven knows she has some dance background, and a lovely physical build for dance.
I really don’t think its a big deal, the people make it out to be are just looking for something to complain about. I couldn’t abgree more with what she said. Jake did the best he’s ever done BUT he did not deserve the score he got. Erin’s routine was every bit as hard as his, the judges even commented on the difficulty of Erins Jive. I have been saying this all along that Erin gets judged ridiculously harsh! While Jake does well but makes a few obvious mistakes and he gets two points higher?! Alot of people agree with what she said, guess you can’t tell it like it is? Somebody needs to start talking about the judges. Bruno gives Pam an extra point every time, WHY ? Because he thinks her 40 year old booty is still hott? Well i’m glad he’s into her but he’s judging her DANCE, not her sex appeal. I feel like the judges threw Jake a bone and once again Erin gets nothing but oh you did the best you’ve ever done but that NEVER translates into higher scores. Face it, the judges suck and people are going to vote for Erin. Bet thats why *some* peeps are complaining. Nicole may be miss pro dancer but she won’t win DWTS, because nobody likes her.
Jake did get higher scores….can’t remember if it was one or two points…The guy was in tighty whities! WTF…double standard alright.
Beth Rang, i kinda agree with you BUT go back and do some research on Erins “dance” experience. Basically she was a glorified cheerleader…she is very athletic and can do twirls and spins…splits….I challenge you to find more then that. Her sister is the dancer, she was just a hott, athletic cheerleader. That’s pretty much what the dance team is at Florida. That would be why more people don’t comment on it, plus it was ten years ago.
Katie, first off – no one likes Nicole? You are sadly misinformed – quite a few people like her very much, including me. I just love these hyperbolic comments that claim to know what everyone is thinking. You don’t. Obviously. If she doesn’t win it will be because Evan is the bigger ringer with the huge fanbase. Period. That “no one likes her” is just wishful thinking on your part.
As for Erin – she was not robbed. She actually didn’t get that bad a score considering that Maks cheated on the Jive by slowing the tempo considerably and using a prop for an extended period. She got dinged for it, just like Damian and Derek both got dinged for it. Suck it up. Complain about the judges for not being more clear as to why she got a lower score, but quit throwing your competition under the bus – that’s just tacky and small. And FAR worse than anything Nicole ever did. I just love this double standard.
For such a frontrunner, Nicole has ALOT of people that either don’t notice her vote wise because she is a pro dancer or don’t like her for her strange slightly weird/shall i say wanna be thug personality. The best dancers never win this competition and that includes Erin. Nicole fans are pouncing on Erin/Maks because they realize the threat of her popularity and the chemistry in general. Maybe you should get over it, we all have opinions and yours certainly isn’t the beginning and end. BTW almost all of Nicoles “fans” want her to win because shes with Derek
(you know what i mean now don’t ya) who BTW ALWAYS gets a great “star”….isn’t it about time for him to get a Kate? Its easy to have great choreography when you are dancing with the girls he’s always with. I know she wont win because when it comes down to it, the little old ladies that vote wont be voting for her. To many issues with her to list for them and that is funny. I don’t like her because she thinks she is better then the competition and she is which is exactly why she shouldn’t be on DWTS. Her fake pains and worries are bullsh*t and everyone knows it. She aint no actress for a reason. I also don’t think Evan is as safe as everyone thinks but i give him props for skating and dancing…that is hard for anyone to do. He does it very well, go Evan!
I stand behind what i said about Nicole not winning this competition, this is a popularity contest whether you want to admit it or not. Which is why Heidi (ie Derek’s number one bodyguard) is making Erin seem like a witch. Heaven forbid someone have a problem with Jake in his tightie whities, rubbing up the dance floor and getting a higher score with multiple very obvious mistakes, while she was flawless. Not that many people watch that scenenenough to know how much Maks played with the music, but they all do it. Derek messed with the music too…that shouldn’t be an issue since EVERYONE did it. Heck, Derek didn’t even play by ANY rules a few weeks ago and they got 9’s. Yeah, double standard alright.
Nicole and Erin’s attitude are both not professional. Will not give them a vote this season. I remember so many catty comments coming from this site last season regarding MYA and she was nothing short of being the most cordial even when she was being raked over the coals by the judges! It is just funny when your pro has the ringer and everyone pounces. I like Chad and Cheryl, but if Chad does not make the finals, I have decided to vote for EVAN b/c he has been a gentleman and he is enjoying the experience.
Katie, have you ever heard the expression “me thinks she doth protest too much?” Ya might wanna think about that one. LOL
Katie, just to clarify – there’s a big difference between stating your opinion and making blanket assumptions such as “Nobody likes Nicole”. No one is jumping all over you for sharing what you think – it’s the fact that you are assuming that everyone shares that opinion.
While I have no qualms personality-wise with Nicole, Evan, or Erin (other than the fact that her play-fighting with Maks is just getting old), it’s times like this when I’m glad I’m on Team Pam – the woman is so freakin’ zen, it’s amazing. She doesn’t fight with her partner, she doesn’t make snarky comments in the media, she stays calm in the face of doom, and she is making a genuine effort and truly enjoying herself in this competition. Now, on the other hand – is this why she has been in the bottom 2 TWICE now? Is she not “rocking the boat” enough, so to speak, to remain memorable in the voters’ minds? I would hate to think that those that make a big stink (whether they’re good or not) get rewarded with more votes than those who “go with the flow” like Pam. But I guess we shall see…
Katie, I’m a huge Nicole fan, and I am in no way “pouncing on” Erin and Maks. I’m a fan of Erin too, and I always hope that she does well, so I don’t think that’s very fair to say.
