Dancing With The Stars 13 Random-ness Before Dance Night Week 6
Only one more night until showtime on Dancing With The Stars! Below are some random things in setting us for the night that I ran onto at facebook, twitter, and CNN this week.
First up, below are JR and Karina in rehearsals Saturday. The two were also interviewed by Cameron Mathison yesterday for Good Morning America (which they will most likely show tomorrow on their show. So stay tuned. 😉 ).
Below are David, Ricki, Nancy, Hope, Elisabetta, and Carson supporting Chaz at the GLSEN Respect Awards this week! You can watch a video of them HERE as well thanks to reader Ana Mia.
Here is Val and Rob having fun out and about. Rob, where are your Clark Kent glasses to match Val’s?
I thought this was such a fun picture of Lacey, Kym, Ricki, and Derek behind the scenes last week…..
Below is Hope getting her first spray tan yesterday and all smiles.
Lastly, below is another fun video from CNN of Tristan, Nancy, Lacey, and Chaz goofing around and getting ready for the show….
And that is all for now Dancingettes! If you’d like to post some random things you’ve seen, feel free in to do so in the comments section and here’s to tomorrow night! Be there or be square!
Haha…does Tristan say “ballroom” or “bar-room”?
Lacey tweeted a little while go that she and Chaz are dancing 5th:

hey heidi, or voguerista or courtney.
they have the glsen video out with the cast. you guys should post it. her ya go
Cool, thanks Ana! Added!!! 😉
lol your welcome
Lizzbeth, I’ve noticed when he talks really fast, his accent get way thicker and harder to understand! I had to watch it a few times to get what he said!
Love that so many of the cast members were there to support Chaz. This cast gets along so well, and it’s made the season more enjoyable, for me at least.
Love, love, love the cast showing up in force with Chaz at the GLSEN event. Way to go!!! Thanks Ana Mia for finding this for us!
Magnolia, I don’t get why people (Nancy, interviewers, general public) have trouble with Tristan’s accent. I understand every word he says (whether he speaks slowly or quickly), and I don’t have any Irish friends or family. I’ve said before, he’s a good sport about it, mostly, but I’m sure he’d rather folks didn’t make fun of it. We don’t ridicule the Eastern European pros for their accents or Pam and Damian for their Aussie lingo. I just find it weird that he’s being singled out.
Cidra, I whole-heartedly agree! I think at first, Nancy was doing it because it was her kitsch or something. But others… I don’t get it. I’ve never had a problem understanding him. I think the main problem with the video above, for me, was that I couldn’t quite hear him. My volume was way up but I still couldn’t fully make out what he was saying. I do catch myself occasionally having to really concentrate on what he’s saying, but for the most part, I’m never sitting here going, “Huh? What did he say?”
I don’t know why he’s singled out. Maybe because we’re accustomed to hearing Aussie and Russian accents by now on the show, and his is shiny and new. Whatever the reason, it’s time for it to stop, IMO. Move along, nothing to hear here. 😉

Cidra and Magnolia, I second that!! None of the Russian or Aussie pros get teased about their (sometimes thick) accents, and I actuallly thought it was insensitive of Nancy to poke fun at Tristan’s accent, like when he said “Tird” for “Third”. I think she meant it to be funny when she corrected him, but I was really shocked; it wasn’t very politically sensitive from someone that I expected to be more culturally aware and accepting of people’s differences.
To my non American ear Nancy’s accent is just as funny as Tristan’s. I’m actually more accustomed to hearing Irish then thick southern American (which is Nancy’s accent, right?)
::LOL:: Magnolia, “Move along, nothing to hear here.” It probably is just that the brogue is a new accent to us. It’s definitely part of Tristan’s charm and does draw attention which could be a good thing. There are lots of good looking faces on TV, but the accent should help people remember him. Hopefully, our Irishman will be around for many seasons and the brogue will become old-hat to everyone who follows the show. 🙂 Won’t lie, I thought the “turd” step was delightfully funny.
Sasa, yes, Nancy’s accent is one of the Southern accents.
Sasa, you’d die if you heard me. Go to YouTube and search Dolly Parton “Steel Magnolias” and there you go. 🙂
Cidra, I actually sometimes post “tird” instead of third and “tree” instead of three on Twitter and FB just to be funny. He knows he sounds different, and I like how he takes it in stride. I guess I never really thought about it because I’ve heard all kinds of accents. Now, the Scottish accent…Yeah, I need subtitles for some of those Highlanders. But oh…I love me a man in a kilt…
Wait, what were we talking about? 😉
looking at lacey’s boobs – did she get implants?
