Name Your Top THREE Favorite Couples And Who Do You Think Will Win DWTS Season 14
EIGHT more days until show time, Everyone!! Are you ready and have you verified all of your accounts at the official Dancing With The Stars site? If not, now is a good time to do so (and add a few more if you can) here. We can’t stress enough how important it is to VOTE! There are a lot of people out there who think voting doesn’t matter and yet, it sure doesn’t feel good when your favorite dancers get voted off the show unfairly. So, be sure to VOTE. If you know of friends and family who watch the show, be sure to remind them to VOTE as well.
Ok, …with that said, just for fun, and even though we’ve only seen most of the couples dance in some rehearsal footage, let’s get your preliminary thoughts for who are your favorite THREE couples are at this time and who you think will win Season 14 of Dancing With The Stars. It will be fun at the end of the season to look back at the numbers, compare, and see if we were right or not.
Directions: Name your top three favorite couples in the comments section and then take our Poll below for who you think will win the season.
My three favorite couples at this time are (in no certain order);
Maria and Derek
Melissa and Maks
Martina and Tony
Runner up: William and Cheryl
Who do I think will win?: Melissa and Maks (I think it might be his time? Melissa is looking so good in rehearsals!)
Aargh! Vogue, you’re killin’ me. My brain is spinning madly; I can’t narrow it down to three yet.
1. Tristan and Gladys
2. Anna and Jack
3. Cheryl and William
Top three facorite couples:
William & Cheryl
Sherri & Val
Maria & Derek
And I think William has a good chance of taking home that mirror ball trophy..
Donald and Peta my favs
Roshon and Chelsie my favs
William and Cheryl my favs
Honorable mention
Gavin and karin a
Mark and Katherine
Maria and Derek
Sherri and val
Jaleel and kym
I thought about this and this is what I think is going to happen:
1rst place: Maks and Melissa (I think she looked the best in rehersal footage)
1rst runner up: Roshon and Chelsie (I don’t see him winning and he could place 3rd like Chelsie did so at this point him and sherri are interchangeable for me at the moment)
2nd runner up: Sherri and Val (I just have a good feeling about this pair)
My top three? Well, the first one is obvious. Maria And Derek. I don’t think I’ve decided on the other two, yet. I like Jack, Jaleel and Gladys. Haven’t decided about Katherine or Gavin.
Who’s going to win?? Impossible to call. I don’t think it’s going to be Jack or Gladys or Sherri or Gavin or Martina. Whether it’s Melissa depends on way to much to call right now – her ability, her partnership, THE OTHER partnerships. She’s far from a sure thing. Could be Donald, could be Jaleel, could be (but probably not) Roshon, could be Maria, could be William….who the hell knows?
The bad sign is (and this happens every season) that I keep forgetting about Katherine and Gavin. And William to an extent. Whenever I forget about someone, they have a tendency to go early. Katherine needs to get her butt over here and get visible. Luckily I believe they are leaving today.
Saying that, I think Derek and Maria are going to place 5th and Jack and Anna placing 4th.
Am I missing something? I had never even heard of William Levy before and now hes one of the favorites to win?
Top 3 favorites at this time are:
Jaleel and Kym
Gladys and Tristan
Jack and Anna
I really don’t think this will be Maks year again. Could be wrong but does America really want to reward so quickly for his atrocious behavior last year (and previously). Me thinks not. And his freestyles are lame.
Maria and Derek and Jaleel and Kym are my top two favorites. I really like Melissa, I just wish she had been paired with Tristan. Maks is not my favorite. I can’t pick my third favorite, yet.
I think Jaleel and Kym will win, as long as he turns out to be a decent guy, and can dance of course. Kym has always done great freestyles, and the freestyle seems the perfect time to break out the “Urkel.” If that happens I think he will be hard to beat.
I have no problem with Derek winning a 4th trophy, but as long as he’s around until the very end, and as long as Jaleel wins, I will be fine with 2nd or 3rd for Maria and Derek.
This is going to be a very fun season. So excited.
@Sandy: I think Maks hopefully has learend his lesson with freestyle by this point. Looking back at them Kirstie’s was definately his best one.
I agree with Heidi – it’s way too early to tell who is going to win it. But, I’m rooting for
1. Jaleel & Kym
2. Maria & Derek
3. Donald & Peta
But this is the first time in a long time that I’m going to hate to see ANY of them go! π
At this time, my 3 favorite couples are:
1. Melissa and Maks
2. Gavin and Karina
3. Sherri and Val
Runner Up: Martina and Tony
As far as who i think is gonna win, i think it’s too early to tell. but it should definitely be an interesting season.
JACK AND ANNA
JALEEL AND KYM
MELISSA AND MAXSIM
Have no idea yet who to predict will win.
My favorites –
Donald & Peta
Roshon & Chelsie
Maria & Derek
Agree it could be too close to call regarding the winner.
I haven’t seen enuf to think most guesses would be valid but saying that, what I would like is;
1. Derek / Maria
2. Jaleel / Kym or Jack / Anna
3. Donaold/Peta
I don’t think we really know yet but depending on if ALL OF THEM can really dance, and by that I mean can get all the way thru routines, make them fun or memorable enuf for people to remember and not have any major issues or the judges working against them for some reason, what I think will happen is;
1.william/Cheryl or Jaleel/Kym
2.Melissa/Maks or Jack/Anna
3.Derek/ Maria
The latter is based of what I hear the demographic of the show is supposed to be-mostly women of a certain age-and I think fan bases of that demo will edge out Maria (which I HATE and hope I am completely wrong about!)
so hard to narrow it down to 3:
I pick Jaleel and Kym for the win
I really like Gladys & Tristan – I mean, what’s not to love about these 2, individually and as a team
I really like Martina, have been a fan of hers for so
long, and am so rooting for her to do well. I know she’s got it in her, so here’s to her ability to let it out
Just a gut feeling, and I realize I may be eating my words week after next, but I think William and Maria are going to underwhelm, but Gavin may be the one to go home first.
Tristan & Gladys
William & Cheryl
Gavin & Karina
Favorites in order
1) roshon and chelsie
2) jaleel and kym
3) every other couple tied…i like them all! Just like first 2 a bit more
As for who i think will win gonna have to go with jaleel and kym
My No. 1 … of course Maria & Derek, 2. Donald & Peta – i really have a good feeling about Donald…and Peta is slowly growing on me…3. Jaleel & Kym . my feeling is that Melissa has all it takes to win this…so it is all up to Maks…he blew it before..so..i wouldn’t hold my breath… of course, i hope that Derek and Maria are the winners…i can already imagine the drama created by Derek’s 4 th win… π
I like all of them, so it’s hard to pick 3. These are the 3 I think will make it to the finals, I can’t tell who will win yet.
Roshon and Chelsie
Maria and Derek
Melissa and Maks or Jaleel and Kym
4th place: Melissa and Maks or Jaleel and Kym
Maria and Derek
Roshon and Chelsie
Jack and Anna
1. Maria and Derek – I don’t know a lot about her but she seems nice in videos
2. Jack and Anna – I adore Anna and I really like Jack’s attitude towards the competition
3. Gladys and Tristan – I think they are gonna be a great couple
I voted Jaleel for the future winner but I think it’s too early to say, I think there are gonna more rehearsal videos next week so then we’ll see more of their abilities.
I like them all! But my 3 favorite right this minute are probably Gladys/Tristan, Jaleel/Kym, Maria/Derek.
As far as winning right now I’d go with one of these 3 Maria, Jaleel, or William. They’re all young and fit and have pros who excel at making their celebs learn and look good.
I think too many people are assuming he’ll be just like Gilles, frankly. And we don’t know that’s the case. Gilles not only could dance, but was humble and unbelievably charming.
1. Jack & Anna to win (I hope)
2. Maria & Derek
3. Not a clue
i don’t know who will win but i think that all of them are great. i like william the most. he seems like a good person and an excellent dancer. i don’t like the others because they are not good enuf. whatever happens, i hope that william wins. he deserves it.
@mimi #16, I think Maria seems so cute and accessible in her beauty, she reminds me of Sandra Bullock in many ways that I can see the demographics really embracing her. There probably is an unfortunate double standard where by they will have to be more careful with sexy dances than say Jaleel or William.
Gavin and Karina
Jack and Anna
Donald and Peta
Heh. All I can think about right now is how much sleep I will get if Maria gets the boot first. π Delicious sleeeeeep. I’ll be a voting fool until then, though.
Oh dear.
I would like to see Jack/Anna win(back to back wins by my favorite pros, yay!) or Donald/Peta(she was stuck with such a horrible partner in her first season!) π
1: Martina and Tony
2:Gladys and Tristan
3: Donald and Peta and Jaleel and Kym ” Tie “.
Runners-up: Jack and Anna and Katherine and Mark, Maria and Derek. Yes i’m awful at picking at choosing. π
i have NO idea who will win but I think Jaleel, Melissa, Donald, and Maria stand the best chance with Maria, unfortanantly being the longest shot of those three. I’m really in Martina and Tony’s corner though, lets be honsest. π Maria is this seasons drool magnet for me. π ” aka shes hot “.
Poor Heidi. π
My Favorite 3:
1. Jaleel/Kym
2. Sherri/Val
3. Martina/Tony
Would love for Glady/Tristan to sneek in their somewhere and have a Jaleel/Kym MBT win!
Can someone tell me where Derek and Maks were last night that Big Bird was involved?? This is a scary thought. π
This is always hard for me. I seem to have more than one favorite pro on the show, and it all boils down to the pairings and the chemistry with their partners. Just get a feel for it, ya know. Opening night is huge for me.
So my answers above could be subject to change. π But I highly doubt it.
Who’ gonna win??? That’s truly the one million dollar question at this point!! π As I said in a previous post, I’ve never been more confused in my life for a season! They all (almost) look good in rehearsals and that’s why I want to see them ALL dancing first a full dance and then put them in order. And even then, I am not sure if I could do it! LOL
But I can say who are my favorites! Of course my TOP favorite couple is Maria and Derek. Then are Willam & Cheryl and Jaleel & Kym…I think… And I think all three of them have the potential to win! I wouldn’t mind at all if Derek gets his 4th trophy or Cheryl and Kym their third! π
Honestly, I have no idea who’s gonna get this MBT! It could be Donald (NFL players always do well on the show and I hope Peta will take an advantage of that after what happened last season) or Melissa (if Maks won’t **** it up for her) or Roshon (lots of people seem to like him), same as Gavin or Jack (Ξ wouldn’t mind see Anna getting her first MBT, since she is my favorite female pro).
You see? That’s confusion!! LOl I guess I’ll have to wait! π
@Heidi: “I think too many people are assuming heβll be just like Gilles, frankly. And we donβt know thatβs the case. Gilles not only could dance, but was humble and unbelievably charming”
I guess that was about William, right? Well…don’t know why people or the production see him as a ‘second-Gilles’. I can’t see any similarity, but as I know, William is UNBELIEVABLY charming! I am watching him the last 3 years π And I think he is humble too. As for if he is a good dancer, I have no idea. Knowing that he started his career as a model, he might be stiff. But…we have to wait and see! π
I have such tunnel vision where the amazingly talented Derek is concerned. So, its Team Menough to the win for me.
I can honestly say until I see them dancing a couple of weeks that I can’t decide who will win or even be in the final three.
Last year, I wouldn’t have figured JR would win.
My top three:
1) Jack & Anna
2) Gladys & Tristan
3) Jaleel & Kym
However, I think the trophy is Maria and Derek’s to lose. Unless she’s really terrible, Derek can always make his partners look fabulous.
I’m honestly surprised how many people thought Melissa looked good in her rehearsal footage. I thought she looked very wobbly and scared to death whenever Maks moved her around too fast. Added to the fact that I think a lot of people are fed up with Maks, I don’t see them lasting all that long. Not with so many other likable celebrities that people are invested in this season.
Heidi, according to Maks’s friend Merv, they were at Sayers Club and somewhere called Beachers last night. No clue which one the Big Bird picture was taken at.
This is difficult because i know who my heart wants to win but until i see them all dance i’m not sure but my fav couples are Maks & melissa, Val & Sherry and Tristan and gladys…..but this season i’m kinda loving all of them !!
Remember, NOT ALWAYS does the “best” dancer wins…..Mario Lopez, Gilles, Mya, and Chelsea Kane….just sayin’…..what another thread’s post said was 100% correct….”total package”, just like Hines and even Kristi Y.
Anyone see DWTS12 on GSN last night? I coulda SWARN I saw Michelle Bachmann in the audience! No I wasn’t drinking. π
Winter, really? After the week 1 show ended last season, my teen said, “JR, David, Rob.” I said, “What about Ricki?” She said, “Well, she’ll make it only if Rob totally stinks,or David has a panic attack on the dance floor”……to the dismay of her & Jimmy Kimmel, we know what happened LOL!
Zach, I’ll ask her when I see her π
Oh my God, Zach. Bite your tongue.
Top 3:
Maria/Derek
Kym/Jaleel
Gladys/Tristan
I just get good vibes from them and I love these pros and I love these celebs. They will be the couples I look forward to seeing every week.
FTW:
Staying loyal to Maria/Derek.
She might not be the most well-known or experienced, but she has a lot going for her and she has Derek for her partner.
Jess #29 I really hope you are right and Heidi never gets any sleep LOL. And I do think that is possible, too. I have seen her do lots of things but I haven’t seen her really dance in this way and IMO the rehearsal footage means nothing at this point—you don’t really know how much you are being shown.
The more I see of her she remends me a little of Stacey Kiebler with a wicked sense of humor. Stacy was unsure, a jock but really sweet and people really embraced her and her personality quick and of course, she had every man who discovered she was on, supporting her !!
Naming my top 3 will be easy.
Maks and Melissa
Tristan and Gladys
Val and Sherri
As to who will win? Haven’t a clue. Haven’t seen any of them dance yet. Or seen a glimpse of their personalities.
My top 3 favorites going in are:
1. Maria & Derek This team is (Charming, determined, funny & hot couple)
2. Jaleel & Kym (Fun and determined) or Cheryl & William another hot couple.
3. Donald Driver & Peta (Outgoing and determined)
Those are my favorite going in but good luck to all the couples. I’m also excited to see Gladys perform.
My faves are Melissa n Maks, Sherri n Val, & Jack n Anna. Not sure who i think will win but I like to see pros who havent won the MBT to win!!!
I also hope Martina n Tony do well!!!
I really am loving a lot of the couples this season – but if pressed, my favourite couples are:
1. Gladys & Tristan – could very well prove to be the happiest, most positive couple in DWTS history – they are just sooo cute together!!
2. Melissa & Maks – I was unsure about this pairing when first rumoured, but from what I’ve seen and read, they really seem to be bonding – should be interesting
3. Jack & Anna – My Jack crush is decades old, but has really been rekindled from all I’ve seen and read of these 2 – Jack seems re-energized by dance! I really want to see them do well!
Honourable mention goes to Gavin & Anna – don’t know what his dancing will be like, but I think their rehearsal packages will be a hoot!
Derek and Maria
Gladys and Tristan
Jack and Anna
The winner: Jaleel and Kym are my pick at the moment!
Gavin & Karina
Jack & Anna
Valentin & Sherri
I went back and forth on the winners – Jack/Anna and Cheryl/William. Not necessarily for the celeb, but the pro. Anna’s due (please let her win…) and Jack seems like he could actually do this. Cheryl’s due for a win and if ABC promotes heavily to their spanish audience, William could be voting gold.
I’ve only got two favorites to watch at this point – Derek (and my Boston home-girl Maria), Anna & Jack (just for the 80’s frisco memories). the others either hold no interest from a pro or celeb interest (and if one is gonna bug me, I’ll probably FF through their background) – I’m not the biggest Maks fan, but I have the feeling that Melissa is going to be annoying…
My three favorite couples:
Jack and Anna
Anna and Jack
Wanger and Trebunskaya
Who do I think will win?: Team Wagannbuns π
Pre-season favorites (in no particular order):
Maria and Derek
Melissa and Maks
Jack and Anna
Favorite 3 couples
1) Jack and Anna <3
2) Sherri and Val
3) Roshie and Chelsie
I think Roshie, Jack and Donald might be final 3. Or maybe Jaleel in Jack's spot, would love Team Wagannbuns to win though. But soap actors, disney stars and NFL players always make it far
Did you mean to type “Wanger”, tina?? Cuz, I gotta say, it made me think dirty thoughts. π
Well, trying to keep an open mind and wait to see everyone actually perform before declaring favs/predicting winners, but the ones I’m most looking forward to (in no particular order) are Jaleel & Kym, Donad & Peta, Maria & Derek, William & Cheryl…and who’s not curious to see what Gladys can do? Martina has really quite appealed to me in her approach to this whole thing while it’s obvious most everyone is investing themselves.
“I think too many people are assuming heβll be just like Gilles, frankly. And we donβt know thatβs the case. Gilles not only could dance, but was humble and unbelievably charming.”
Re: William, guessing the dancing and charisma won’t be a problem with him, yet unknown how invested hes in this competition. This season more than any other may well come down to who just wants it most and how the various fanbase factions align if/once their fav is eliminated.
@Princess Heidi It was a typo, meant to say Wagner, but I’m thinking I like the “thinking dirty thoughts” ha ha
William duh,lol!!!Well, i’m a big Cheryl fan.
Maria is my second fave…….and a toss up between Sherri and Roshon/Urkel. I love Chelsie and Kym as well.Would love to see Chelsie make it to the finale for once.
I like Jaleel & Kym, Gavin & Karina, and Gladys & Tristan the most, but I think it’ll probably be Jaleel & Kym, Donald & Peta (Packer Nation will want to out do SteelerNation lol), and Melissa & Maks (especially since she tweeted her fans on how to power vote hehe).
Interesting….
I didn’t know gavin was “beat up” in NYC a little while ago.. π … plus he calls Karina his “little Russian butterfly”….cute….
http://gavin-degraw.tumblr.com/post/18853610072/gavin-degraw-calls-in-to-mix-94-1-fm-las-vegas-to
Derek and Maria.
Maks and Melissa.
Kym and Jaleel.
I can’t decide yet.. i have favorites but id dunno how they will turn after the midweek of competition.. how they will handle the mixture of fun, excitement, pressure, physical stress&fatigue… are they still going to be the best couple or the other way around??…. (hmmmmmmm, exciting!!) am saving my top 3 after seeing them dance for weeks…
Great thread Vogue – Can’t wait to see at the end how we all did!
Top three for me:
Maks and Melissa
Jaleel and Kym
Jack and Anna
4th spot to be a battle between Tony and Martina and Derek and Maria. (Heidi, please don’t hate me! :-D)
FTW: This is gonna depend on how forgiving everyone is towards Maks for last season. Some may want him to pay his dues a bit longer, while some may look and say, he has apologized and realized he was in the wrong and is now putting in a decent effort to smooth things over.
So, I’ll say Maks and Melissa to take the win, although my gut is telling me it will be Kym and Jaleel.
My favorite to win is Jaleel and Kym
Next to them I’d like Donald and Peta and Maria and Derek.
I’d happy if Maks and Melissa make it to the finals. I think their partnership will be more calm and less dramatic.
1) Maria and Derek
2) Gladys and Tristan
3) Gavin and Karina
Ringers? SHERRI!!!! π
Hi Heidi – hope you are having a good day! The only reason I said it was because I know how partial you are towards Derek. In my previous posts regarding Tony, I just felt that your comments were less than favorable – which is absoliutely fine! Really – to each their own. I noticed that the thread sort of died though after the last time we exchanged thoughts and it concerned me. I was just trying to tread carefully this time.
