DWTS Season 11 Pro Watch – Mini Update
Just a little update on the Pros. 
Because their locations kinda gives clues to their parters. This is a compilation from people’s comments on other posts and what I see on twitter.
Lacey – She’s in LA. The Situation is in Jersey.
Anna T – Got on a plane very early yesterday and then had a “long day”. See above about “the situation”. Although Kurt Warner has been in Phoenix this whole time and is just NOW on his way to LA – for a cookoff, he says. 
Update 2: Anna apparently came back the same day she went to….Phoenix? Who knows?
Chelsie – I’ve heard lots of people say in the comments that she’s in Louisiana – as is Michael Bolton (and Harry Connick Jr. who some of us have pinned our hopes on. ). I checked her twitter and sure enough she’s been in Louisiana since Friday. Update 2: Chelsie says she’s going to Utah for a day then back to LA
Cheryl – She’s in LA and has rehearsal this morning and is then attending the Emmys. Update: Rick Fox is reportedly following Cheryl on Twitter. Update 2: And now Cheryl is following Rick Fox, per “Guest” in the comments.
Derek – Seems to be in LA. It seemed like he was with Maks and Tony, since all three tweeted about the UFC at the exact same time (to the minute), but it could have been a coincidence. Update 2: He’s been in LA all along, it seems. Went to the ET Emmy Party last night, as did Maks and Tony. Bromance? Cheryl Cole is prettier, Derek. :-)
Maks/Tony – They both seem to be in LA. See above about Derek. Update 2: Both went to the ET Emmy Party last night.
Mark – Is in Southern California and was at some function in Laguna Nigel with Benji Schwimmer last night.
Louis – has been rather quiet. He tweeted about renting a house for his mom, but nothing about DWTS, really. Margaret Cho was in Vancouver as of Saturday night. All the other men appear to be in LA. Update: Louis just tweeted that he’s in the pacific time zone – he followed that with a tweet about taking care of his plants. I think he’s back in LA.
Karina/Kym/Edyta – haven’t got a clue where they are. Update 2: One of our commenters claim that Karina and Edyta are in LA.
Our rumored Stars? Well…I mentioned the out of towners above. I *think* the rest are in LA. The guessing game continues…. If anyone has different info, I’ll update.
More Updates:
Rick Fox - in LA and following Cheryl on Twitter
David Hasselhoff – In Germany with his kids.
Probably the Last Update:
Florence Henderson – Not sure at all anymore that this one is accurate. We’ll see.
Karina also tweeted about the UFC.
Yeah, but that doesn’t really mean she’s in LA – she’s not said in several days where she is. Maks, Tony and Derek, OTOH, have indicated that they are in LA. Sort of. Derek hasn’t said, but since he’s getting a lot of attention from the paparazzi right now we *might* know if he left town.
why do you say Mike is in Jersey? I saw nothing on his twitter that implied that. Are there recent Jersey Shore pap pics of him? thank you!
“Louis van Amstel, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, Chelsie Hightower, Tony Dovolani, Anna Trebunskaya, Mark Ballas, Kym Johnson, Edyta Sliwinska, Lacey Schwimmer, Cheryl Burke, Derek Hough, and Alec Mazo have been confirmed as professionals for this season.” From wikipedia but without reference.
To Louis: There was a pic of him posted yesterday at the shore. I’m guessing he was in Jersey since Snooki and J-Woww were with him.
Louis was in Seattle a couple days ago, about the same time Margaret Cho was in Seattle to do a show. I doubt Alec is on, especially because I know for a fact that Corky is on the show
.
David Hasselhoff was in Hannover, Germany on Friday (pictures were posted).
And, there was this about “The Situation”: http://www.tmz.com/2010/08/27/the-situation-jersey-shore-mtv-dancing-with-the-stars/
Apparently, he won’t start rehearsals until the 8th?
Here’s a little thing I noticed. Karina and Johnny Weir showed up on Twitter about the same exact time tweeting last night. (I know…I am hopeless to still be pining for these two, lol)
Adding; and thanks for this post. I love it.
WENN has pictures of The Situation that were taken in New Jersey – I believe it was yesterday.
Wiki can be good, but it can also be utter crap, updated by anyone, including me. Use it as a source only very cautiously.
Yes – and Louis just now tweeted that he’s “in the Pacific Time zone”. I think he’s back in LA though now, because he tweeted about his plants. LA to Vancouver is probably only a 2 hour flight.
I noticed that Cheryl is following The Situation on Twitter.
Oh yeah, I forgot that David was in Germany. As for when The Situ will start rehearsals – TMZ is not impeachable either. They may not know what the pros fly to where their partner is.
As I told someone else earlier in the week – Cheryl was following Evan before last season started too. And we know how that turned out.
I don’t think the issue with the Situation is getting a pro to new Jersey. I think the problem would be his obligations to MTV. He might be able to meet is pro and maybe have a practice, but I don’t see MTV giving him up for the final week of shooting. I’m wondering if that’s why Anna flew out somewhere yesterday and came back rather quickly.
Hmmmm i thought all the cast was supossed to be there at the press confrence tomorrow night. I wonder why The Sitch is still in Jersey and esspecialy why is David Hasselhoff still in Germany. This makes me wonder if they are part of the cast after all, dont get me wrong i would love the see The Hoff on DWTS ( He was on mah wishlist before he was even a rumor lol ) im just wondering-
Kurt sounds like a lock SCORE! and the rest. idk. loool. Cant wait till tomorrow! And Hiedi, Thx for yo hard work keeping us all posted!! Really awesome! 
Heidi, I wonder what the format for the press conference and reveal is going to be, especially if all the contestants are to be there at the same time. Interesting. Unless Tom/Brooke will be sitting down and then call out each contestant one at a time.
Well, one more night and we will find out.
Thanks Heidi & Courtney for doing an excellent job here, keeps us excited and informed.
I’m not sure where the idea come from that they’re all going to be there. Anyone know? I never assumed they would all be there – maybe a few of them, yes. I hope we get Derek. He’s been too absent all summer.
Interesting. Someone just posted this at a Reality forum I read a lot;
“Craig R, a former contestant on Ali’s Bachelorette season, tweeted a few days ago that he knew the cast of DWTS and two of their names rhymed with
theyearofelan and Shmichael Shmordan. That sounded like Sarah Palin and Michael Jordan. Could it be Michael Jordan instead of Michael Bolton? I think Bristol Palin will be one of the contestants, but with all the scheduling conflicts of Michael Bolton with dwts shows, I’m doubting he will be on. Has Michael Jordan’s name ever been mentioned as a possibility?”
@Voguerista How do you guess that Karina and Johnny Weir showed up on Twitter about the same exact time?
Because if the Q&A sesssion they are going to have. Right?
Wait. Micheal Jordon and Sarah Palin?!?!?! That would be soooo awesome!!!!!!!!!!
They’ll be dancing Merengue and Rock ‘n’ Roll this season! And also Lindy Hop Marathon! I can’t wait!
Jennifer, if you go to both of their twitter pages, you’ll see how they showed up within the same hour of each other lastnight and started tweeting. It’s most likely just coincidental, Maybe they had been practicing all day and just got home. I know…wishful thinking. lol
I don’t know if it was here or somewhere else, but someone thought Kym was in a different time zone than California. I know she was rumored to be with David Hasslehoff, but would he really be in Germany right now if he was going to be on a show in the United States?
Does Kurt Warner live in Phoenix? Anna could have been there meeting him, and now they’re both in LA. Rehearsing together maybe?…I think they’d look good together. I guess she could have been in New Jersey, but why would she have to leave the same day she got there if The Situation is still in Jersey? I’m also still curious about what she means with her tweet about crossing her fingers because she hopes an idea she has comes true, or something like that.
Sounds like Mark, Lacey, Cheryl, and Tony have started rehearsing. And Tony’s happy about it.
Sugerland where did u find out about those dances?? thats awesome!!!!
Oh i mean SugerSuger! So sorry!
Really Zack, you think those dances are a good idea? I don’t understand the thinking these producers have sometimes. They go back down to 11 couples and stick to the more standard ballroom stuff and they get their highest ratings in a while. This is AFTER a season where they threw in a bunch of extra dances and 16 couples – their lowest rated season in a long time. I don’t get it. I really think they need to tighten up the dances that are done – how do you compare the couples when in one night you have a charleston, a Paso, a Tango, a lindy hop, a waltz, etc. I HATE that. If they can add dances and stick to TWO dances in one night, great. But really, people want to complain about “fair” – how fair is it when one couple is doing a Charleston and another couple is doing a Waltz?? It’s automatically weighted toward the Charleston in most voters minds. Sucks.
Well i just like diffrent dance styles. like its gets old seeing 8 foxtrots and paso’s in one night. Personally i loved season 9. i guess im just a wierdo!
And also i think its majorly a popularity contest as we saw with Kate Gosselin. So lets say for example just to make a point Micheal Jordon is doing a waltz, because hes SO popular people will vote for him, and Teresa Giudice is dancing say a merenge because she doesnt have a big a fan base she very well might not get as many votes. Thought?
I have showed up tweeting within thirty, twenty and ten minutes of JWe and so have others more than one time. I wish some fans would stop reading into things.
Karina and the girls are in LA. The Hoff is enroute (wouldn’t miss it). Mike Bolton is there. Brandy is there. Krystal is there. Flo Henderson is there. The Situation has been flying back and forth for several weeks now and is rumoured to be in attendance for the announcement.
Hey Mario…lighten up. Us “fans” were just having fun speculating like what was said we could do when this post was started. You sound as if you are an authority on the subject and all the people involved which I highly doubt. You know nothing more than the rest of us and we have a right to our opinions and speculations as you do.So please don’t put down any fans here as if you are superior because you are not.
“I have showed up tweeting within thirty, twenty and ten minutes of JWe and so have others more than one time.”
The difference between you or anyone else is that you are NOT a potential partner. So, some of “us fans” will read into what we want.
GMA announced this morning that they are having a kick-off party in Times Square tomorrow featuring some of the celebs. So either they are going on a red eye after the press conference tonight or some of them are already in NY. The US Open starts tonight so that’s always a celeb friendly hang-out in NY…
@Heather :It would make sense for some of the Celebs on the east coast, like the Situation…or somebody flying back to JFK from Hamburg.
RE: the tweeting at the same time thing – I only mention it when it’s really close, because that is suspicious. Like the other night, Derek, Maks and Tony all tweeted about the UFC at 10:58 (not the real time, but they all tweeted at the exact same time, with Tony off by one minute). You have to consider that the people in question might be together when it’s that close. It’s too coincidental, especially when Derek doesn’t follow Maks or Tony so he couldn’t see them and respond.
Mario, some are going to be on GMA tomorrow morning. I would expect two of those people to be Mike and Hasselhoff. Either they would have to take the red eye after the announcement tonight or the ones who are already in NYC will be the only ones on GMA.
And Vogue is right – you really should lighten up. They’re just having fun and hoping for Johnny.
Thanks Heidi. I appreciate your support. Sorry to get so uptight on it. Anyway, here’s to tonight and tomorrow morning Everyone.
We won’t have to wait long now for the real deal. I hope there are some big surprises coming that they’ve been successful at keeping under wraps (one of them being Johnny somehow lol). That would be near impossible with the internet age.
My thought, Zack, is that if it happens the other way around. Theresa gets the Waltz while Michael Jordan gets the Merenge – the already popular person gets a high energy dance and the person with no fanbase gets the low energy dance, thereby hampering the already hampered. Unless she dances like Nicole and has Derek for a partner.
I’ve heard we don’t get to hear the pairings until Wednesday – I’m hoping that whoever is on GMA tomorrow slips up and tells us ahead of time. I guess they are going for a 3-day reveal thing.
Mark just tweeted that he’s doing title shoots.
Makes sense Princess Heidi…… But im still excited bout the new dance styles. Sorry
