DWTS Season 11 – The Press Conference
This Player should have the press conference live (or so the site says) and follow-up questions (web only) from the media afterwards. Color me skeptical. 🙂 You should be able to watch it here – I think. If not, it’s on ABC.com. I have a feeling both sites (ABC and this one) may be difficult to get to tomorrow night so, if you have Twitter follow one of these three: @tvblog, @PureDWTS or @PureDerekHough and I’ll tweet as I go. If I don’t explode. 🙂
Ok, I have no proof of this and there has been no rumors about this person at all, but something tells me that we might even see Britney Spears on this season. I may be 100% wrong, but I don’t know, with her career sliding, this might be what she needs. And ABC would totally keep the lid on that one. Like I said, it’s more of a feeling than fact.

B. Spears would certainly fill the spot of the missing “ringer” !! I suppose the Press Conference ad kills the rumor of a 13th mystery couple ?? Or could that be another red herring from ABC? I’m just chock full of questions today – can’t wait to finally know, but cannot sit through the Bach Pad tonight so I’m hoping and praying that I’ll be able to access this site (since I don’t twitter). And since I can’t seem to stop asking questions, let me through a stupid one out there – how do these LIVE shows work with the time difference – do they air at 5pm in the West when they’re on at 8pm in the East? Seems awful early to be plopping down in front of the TV with a glass of wine (or two or three) 😉
Nathan, seeing as how Brittney has a guest starring role on Glee, I highly doubt that she needs DWTS.
Linde, I don’t see why the press conference kills the idea of a 13th couple. I’m not following the logic on that.
As for the live shows – they’re only truly live in the Eastern and Central time zones. That is, they air as they’re being taped. The press conference and DWTS live shows are the same in that respect. So, if you live in the West, you’d have to rely on twitter (or this site) or wait until it airs in your time zone. It’s tape delayed in the Mountain and Pacific time zones. GMA and the other morning shows are the same way, except that it’s tape delayed in ALL time zones except for Eastern. That’s why if something happens on DWTS that the FCC would get pissed at, they have time to edit it out of the “live” broadcast in the western time zones. We’d get to see it in our time zone, but the west wouldn’t.
Since Lacey is doing the dwts titles shoot today, she doesn’t have the situation. The situation is paired either with Anna or Karina, I think.
Another note, I was thinking about last season. All but Jake, Erin, Nicey, and Adian were leaked. This season it seems the same. DWTS really need to work on that.
I still wonder why the press conference.
What does “Title Shoots” mean? Is that when they take their photo spreads as couples?
Heidi – the ad for the press conference shouts out “we’ll announce the 12 new stars” or something to that affect, but definitely says the number 12. An ABC red herring? And thanks for clearing up the time zone thing – although for some reason I assumed you were out west (don’t ask me why I made that leap). Anyhow – many mucho thanks for all this hard work keeping us up to date on the latest and greatest; absolutely love everything about this site – the speculations, the Usual Suspects reports, the Who Wore It better photos. I am so looking forward to my first full season with ya’ll, when we get to comment AFTER having seen them all dance! It’s looking like another good season ….
Linde, same here. I am loving this site and all of you. I’m so looking forward to sharing our commentaries after the dances, etc. 😉
Heidi: THANK YOU for sparing us all the torture of “Bachelor Pad,” I’ll be on this site starting at 8!!! You’re the BEST! Luv ya!
Aw, you guys are being very nice. I’m very glad you like the site. I hope you feel the same way after we criticize some of the pros for their comments or behavior. I’m already gritting my teeth over something Maks has said to TV Guide. Hopefully he was joking and not being an ass. 🙂
Yeah, Vogue, that’s what it means. Last season they had a video of “Derek’s Day on Set” of the title shoots. It basically was him picking his clothes, then telling what they do – his focus seemed to be FOOD. 🙂 As thin as he is, that’s probably a good thing.
Princess Heidi, thanks for the info. I didn’t know that Britney was doing Glee. You’re right. She probably doesn’t need DWTS
Heidi, I will feel the same. I can take a disagreeing opinion as long as it stays respectful. I’ve noticed you run a pretty tight ship here and are quick to react to trolls which I’m thankful for. 😉
Believe it or not, Vogue, there have only been TWO people who have been banned from the site in the last 4 seasons or so. We pretty much let whatever fly around here – but when the comments start resembling those that you see on the ABC boards or on Perez Hilton, then I have to call a halt. We’re not going to put up with some of the name calling that you see in those places – the offensive stuff. I also have a very low tolerance for game playing. 🙂
It appears we’re going to have to scoot our chairs really close together – there’s a crowd gathering at this site tonight 🙂
Thankfully, we all seem like a friendly bunch so differing opinions are welcome – I enjoy a lively discussion, just no need to get ugly. I agree with Vogue – you run a very tight ship here, count me in among the grateful.
Heidi, I know what you mean. I’m a Moderator at a forum elsewhere and we feel and run it with the same philosophy. I mean….there are thousands of places a person can go. But, I don’t go any place to put up with games, grief, or any kind of abuse. Life is hard enough as it is. Thanks again.
Yep Linde, it appears we’ll all be gathered here at the same time. Can’t wait. 😉
Patience will be the rule tonight if last season is anything to go by. Not only will the site load very slowly, but the comments may take longer than normal. Patience, grasshoppers. 🙂 And be moderate with the refresh button. 🙂
Man im so excited bout tonight because anything could happen!!! I thought i kinda knew what the cast would be, now i have no idea! Cant wait! Thx agan Hiedi!
Just saw a picture of last night’s Emmy’s party w/Tony, Maks n Julie Benz. This makes me wonder if Julie is gonna b on the show.
You’re going to make me google Julie Benz aren’t you. 🙂
I am currently without television, so I’ll be online tonight to get the updates from here. 🙂 Thanks for this site, guys.
Heidi, Julie Benz used to be on Dexter and she and Maks currently have a twitter thing going on.
Heidi, Julie Benz played Darla on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel. I wouldn’t mind if she was a contestant!
I only know Julie Benz for being the stripper on desperate housewives, but as much as I would love her on the show she’s started to film a new show for ABC called No Ordinary Family which I think rules her out because she’ll be too busy.
