Roshon Fegan On Dancing With The Stars: I’m just a little ant trying to just stick around”
People.com has a cute little article and video up of Chelsie and Roshon today. He talks of feeling like an ant last week. See why below and then see the link for more.
“It’s like [being] an ant – an ant in a big world,” Fegan, 20, tells PEOPLE. “[I’m] just trying to hang out in the picnic basket. Everybody’s oh, so giant. I’m just a little ant trying to just stick around.”
Up against what he calls “big, giant, sexy guys” like William Levy, Fegan always has his Michael Jackson-style dance moves that earlier impressed the judges.
“I just don’t have the same thing going on,” he says. “But I’m hangin’ in there. I’m proud to be who I am, and I’m definitely working on it.”
He may not have the same thing going on, but, that’s why I like him. 🙂
UPDATE: Below is Roshon on 933 FM in San Diego this morning…
UPDATE 2: And finally the new KTLA interview which you can see here.
UPDATE 3: Here they are in rehearsals. A good promo push for Roshon and Chelsie today. I hope it works.
OMG he just endeared himself to me even more.
Roshon is to darn adorable!! I love his dancing just as much as the things he says. He cracks me up.
Team Rochee FTW!!!
aww! come on team rochee, im pulling for you guys!
Enough, please. Think of something to say other than cheer leading.
Roshon you’re not an ant, you’re an amazing, gifted talented dancer and musician and who cares about the big giants muscle guys. You have proven that you are just as qualified to be in the top three as anybody else. Be who you are and continue giving your very best and be proud what you have accomplished in this short amount of time!!!!!
I am confused?? what is wrong with what anyone of us said? Mine’s was a comment on the video, and support for a team. Is there a rule against positivity?
There is no rule on positivity, Yo, but, like Heidi, I’ve noticed an influx of just “cheerleading” too. In fact, yesterday I put a post in the spam folder where someone came in just to leave a fly by post that said “Vote for Team Roche” with their phone number and yet didn’t say anything else. It just gets old after awhile if it’s done a number of times.
oh, well that is unfortunate. All i have to go on are my personal posts and what I have seen on this topic, hence the confusion.
He’s seems like a good kid and is a great dancer, so I’ll throw more votes his way Monday night, as long as there’s no major blunders in the dance.
I’ve seen a string on various posts of nothing but “go Roshon”. Over it.
“Once your 18 you can definitely be sexy. You’re legally an adult. I think it’s totally fine from that point on” hahahahaha i just love Chelsie Hightower! I hope hope hope that team Rochee start getting some love from the judges and get to stick around. They’re too cute to go now!
For crying out loud Yo Lord, two other people said the same and they have not commented on what PH said. You like Roshon – GOOD, your rooting for him – GOOD, but please give me something to read as in why? by the time I got to your post – I was bored stiff.
For those interested, there is a new radio interview posted in the first post. Is it me, or does Roshon sound a little down going into tonight? I have to say, I don’t blame him. The TPTB and the judges might have finally ruined that spirit. grrrr
Voguerista I totally agree with you, he usually is more up beat, but I think the judges has beaten it out of him, he actually said a lot, without saying anything – if you know what I mean!
Yep, I do. Sad. 🙁
I just told Heidi this privately, but, my dream tonight is to see Maria, Roshon, and Donald in the top 3 on the leaderboard. They’ve all been cheated and it’s not right.
+1 Vogue!! (#17)
Thanks Megs! I hope he’s ok!!
I just finished listening to that interview, he doesn’t sound cheery like he usually is. I hope he’s OK and will be able to perform to its fullest!!!!
Me too Viviane!!
The new KTLA interview (which was done on Friday) has been added now too. He doesn’t sound all the best in it either.
@catherine
it suffices to say, what i write is not contingent on your entertainment, only how i genuinely feel about the topic.
I had a question, both Vogue and Heidi answered very respectively, and that was the end of it.
Anyways….saw an insider interview from these two, and im thinking the A. tango is going to be a good dance for these two.
And an Insider Rehearsal interview has been added now too!!! They are looking great!
Thanks Yo! Just got that interview up. And yes, that was the end of it. You’ve always been a great contributing member and we appreciate it. xx
Rehersal is looking good! Maybe he can pull a Jaleel and get a 29 or higher and top the leader board 🙂 That would be a big slap in theface for the judges since they are pimpimg william and katherine so much and kinda treating roshon like they treated ralph macchio (not gonna lie i thought hey would be over the obvious favoritism and pimping after chelsea kane)
That rehearsal footage does look really good!! I’m thinking maybe Joshua Bell will be playing while they dance. Joshua does a version of Astor Pizzolla’s Oblivion on one his albums. Not sure if that fits “classical” theme though and that’s a slow tango song. We’ll we see. I hope a fire ignites in Roshon after last week’s issues.
I just finished watching all the videos, thank you guys and I have to say the last one with The Insider got me all excited again. Wow, Roshon is getting muscles, he looks amazing and that dance looks HOT. I hope that they get those high scores tonight. I just want to see Roshon happy again, come on Chelsie, give him that pep talk.
Okay, I was going to call that AT “sexy” or “sultry” but I almost feel like that would be an insult because I could feel a strong emotional connection between the two of them. It kind of reminded me of those scenes in romantic movies where all the lovers do is simply look at each other. I usually end up rewatching those scenes more often than the scenes where they actually kiss, etc.
I could not feel more distain for TPTB and the 3 Stooges for Roshon’s “Ralphing.” IMO, Roshon and Chelsie are both professionals and know they always don’t get the job. However, as Chelsie said in the Insider interview, give Roshon something to work on, someting positive to take from the experience, don’t just beat on him. One of Chelsie’s good friends from Season 12 tweeted to both of them to prove the stooges wrong. IMO, they can with both their acting and their dancing. Here is hoping Team Rochee really brings it and they have my votes.
@Vivianne, meaning no disrespect, but as Chelsie and Roshon have been working together for 10 weeks, I have no doubt she knows what he needs to hear, be it cheerleading or a kick in the butt or just plain mellowing out.
@IrisandLilies – ITA about the connection during the dances. Team Rochee is a great partnership. They’ve finally stopped playing the stupid showmance games and have really focused on rehearsing the dance and the characterization and it shows. Unfortunately, they’re not getting the scores or the votes, which sucks.
@Voguerista, I would love to see Donald, Maria and Roshon at the top of the leaderboard as well, but that might depend on what scripts TPTB have given the Stooges tonight.
People keep saying that Roshon is getting “Ralphed” – if you really believe that you need to go watch Season 12 again. Yes, Roshon is getting underscored – but the judges are being quite nice this season, in terms of what they actually SAY. The same can not be said for Season 12.
Heidi, so true. The judges got down right rude, personal, and demeaning with Ralph…much like they did with Chaz towards the end of his time last season. Please…I hope they won’t do that again.
Deena, I’ve often wondered if TPTB “scripts” as well. Last week made me really suspicious.
Jake from Disney (he interviews the 2 each week) posted a video of A. Tango from Team Rochee. It showed about 2 lifts. I thought Roshon did pretty good lifting Chelsie.

Sorry messed the link up. Just check it out on you-tube and search by upload date.
In the video is was cute how he fixes Chelsie shirt after 1st lift:)
Maria on her vlog has a funny video of Roshon, her and Jaleel trying the Starburst challenge. Too cute!
