DWTS Season 16, Week 4 – Who Got the Boot? (SPOILERS)
Wow…I’m so glad that I spent time voting for that big pro dance that Val won. Or Zendaya’s fans won. ๐ ย All it amounted to was a 20 second bumper into the commercial?? Yeah, I think that TPTB had something else planned and punted to the pro dance idea. Brilynn Rakes – very inspiring, beautiful dance. ย The rest…will be covered in the Cheesecake. ๐
Dang, how about that – I was right on target with the bottom two but a fail with the couple to be eliminated. Victor and Lisa in the bottom two, with Lisa being eliminated. ย How did we all do??
Heidi: Said Victor and Lisa would be the bottom two with Victor going home. Close, but no cigar. ๐
Courtney: Said Lisa and Victor in the bottom two with Lisa going home.
Vogue: ย Said DL and Lisa would be in the bottom two, with Lisa going home.
Winner?? ย Courtney was 100% right, but Brilynn Rakes won the night for being an inspiration and getting to dance with her favorite dancer on National TV. I got weepy right along with Derek. ๐
I’m just watching it (I’m from Chihuahua, Mรฉxico, but we get the signal from El Paso, Texas), but I always feel the need to look at the spoilers haha.
Sad to see Gleb… I mean, Lisa out of the competition. But it was kinda predictable. Now that the nerves and suspense are gone, I’ll enjoy the show. Looking forward to Derek and Brilynn’s dance.
As I’m typing the encore dance just started. I wanted to be Andy’s, not Aly’s. But what can we do?
Mexican greetings :D!
I can’t decide if I’m more thrown off by the fact that I spent all night tweeting in between votes or about the theme for next week. Side by side dances? Sure, lets make these people look worse.
These new gimmicks just get worse!
I teared during Brilynn’s dance. And then Derek was choking up and I teared again. I admit I’m not crazy about Derek like other people are, (quite frankly I’m not crazy about any of the male pros but I do admire them as dancers cause they are all amazing), but my hats of to Derek for being an incredible person all in all.
I LOL-ed at the fact that Val and Karina’s dance was like a 20 second dance. Basically the same thing the trope does but 10 seconds longer. It was cool though.. Karina can MOOOVEEEEE and so can Val.
Aly’s Contemporary … yeah boring the second time around too. And I saw that very slight stumble Aly!!! Lol ๐
Val and Anna were great too and Bocelli and JLo were fantastic.
I missed the opening of the girls.. *pouts*
Can someone shed some light on WTF it is that they are doing next week? I didn’t get it.. they are dancing side by side with the pros? Is it the Trio dance already? I’m confused.
And.. Hola Ivan! Disfruta el show! ๐
I wish Lisa had stayed so we could have at least gotten rid of one of these forgettable male celebs. Granted Kellie, Zendaya, and Aly are probably in till semis at least, so the next few weeks will be all about some of those guys going home, but still sucks the women are dropping like flies.
Until more info comes out about this side by side challenge, i’m just gonna say that it’s gonna be dumb. Why make these amateur dancers look even worse? Even Zendaya and Kellie, while amazing, aren’t ballroom pros.
What were the producers thinking? “Let’s make a theme week that makes even are strongest dancers look bad?”
The Spotlight dance was amazing – the high point of the show.
Andy and Sharna were robbed of another encore dance IMO.
The results shows this season have really had a half assed feeling about them.
Anyone else distracted by the thong Brooke was wearing on her chest? WTH?!?
What is this side by side nonsense that’s going to be going on next week? I don’t think I like the sound of that.
oh, CC!
Muchas gracias ;)!
Ok so I had like a visual of this side by side thing for next week ..
For example…
Kellie and Derek dance, let’s say a “Samba”, they dance together for a while and then sometime in the dance, Derek steps away and, let’s say Kym, comes in and does some sort of solo next to Kellie and BAM.
If it’s anything like that… I don’t even know how to feel about it.
Brilynn Rakes should be an inspiration to us all. What a lovely dance!
No surprise Val won. If it isn’t going to be Zendaya winning the twitter wars, it will be him. I’m glad we only saw the little bit we did. Please, please, give up the twitter nonsense. There isn’t any point to it and it’s making a lot of people unhappy.
Didn’t think Aly and Mark should have gotten the encore. Like others, I wish it had been Andy and Sharna. I guess we should be happy it wasn’t Sean and Peta again or having Zendaya and Val thrown front and center again either.
Another week with DL. Ugh. There isn’t anything appealing about the guy and he can’t dance. Just go away.
I’m sorry to see Lisa go. I really thought it would be Victor.
Am I the only person who found this results show a little weird? It seemed odd to me that the first 6 were,essentially, right away called safe rather than spreading it out and including who was in jeopardy throughout. Maybe I’m over thinking this, but a part of me feels like Lisa may have bowed out although they didn’t want to say that since Dorothy already had (I could also see Lisa not wanting to make it look like she was giving up). I know they’ve had other seasons where multiple celebrities have had injuries, but something about tonight seemed off to me.
This results show *was* a little weird. But, I wish they’d do weird EVERY. STINKIN. WEEK. More dancing, less “frippery”. ๐ If they’d only canned the segment on Bruno, and replaced it with another dance…
I’ve thought for a long time it would actually be more fun to just announce the name of the couple going home right up front, and then have the rest of the hour to hear musical acts, and watch our beloved pros DANCE. JMO… ๐
Well, the right person went home. I don’t Lisa could keep up with the rigors of the show. Let’s hope DL is next…..
After seeing that Spotlight Dance, I’m thinking Derek actually won, not Val. ๐
Sheesh, the show is so reactive. Ratings slip so they come up more crap. What they really need is to make the show competitive. It’s too predictable. We’ve known since week one who the top three would be and the obnoxious judges haven’t helped matters with their dumb and dumber acts.
I’m very sad to see Lisa and Gleb go tonight. I thought she could take Victor, but in the end I don’t think she wanted to anyway.
Leslie, I just saw your comment and I thought the very same thing about Lisa. I have little doubt that she could take Victor.
I’m with Sally – give me that kind of weird more often. Next week, give me some Derek and Allison Holker and my season will be made. ๐ Like I said in DBN, I LIKE DANCING. What a freakin’ novel concept, right??
As I also declared on twitter – I’m on strike re:twitter voting. That’s bullshit and anyone partaking is essentially doing TPTB’s work for them, getting them trending on twitter so much. Well, Derek and Val trending on twitter, but they’re still getting the attention. Too bad it’s doing nothing for the ratings. DWTS got beat by the voice for the first time this week in total viewers and they have more than TWICE the number in the Key demo.
I cannot get enough of Derek. That dance was spectacular and Brilynn is an inspiration.
As for the results, Kellie and Andy are still there so I’m happy.
Wow, I’m freaking over Brilynn and Derekโs dance. Just BREATHTAKING!!! I WANT MORE!!
I agree with PH, Derek did win tonight!
Now that I’ve seen the whole Results Show… HA! What the heck? All that “hype” about tweet your vote for a 20-second dance?!
Side by side dances? Well, that give us some Tristan in our TVs. Maks, Chelsie and who else did Tom say is coming back?
Thank God for Derek FREAKING Hough! I love me some DH. That’s a guy that makes me wanna dance more, learn ballroom and be as happy as he seems to be. What a blessing and opportunity of dancing with this kid, who has quite a talent. I’m still with tears in my eyes. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!
Whoa! Val and Zendaya are doing the Argentine Tango with Maks and Anna! :O
Now I get what they are doing next week.. Hahaha. The couples dance side by side with a couple of pros… NICE … but odd… lol
The 3 memorable things from this show:
-The Spotlight Performance was beautiful, thank you Brilynn and Derek!
-The challenge or theme for next weeks sounds terrible. It’s like the trio dance but way worse. Can’t we just let the couples try to master a ballroom dance in 5 days? Isn’t that enough??
-What the heck was Peta wearing? That top, if you want to call it that, was so hideous, inappropriate and distracting. I don’t care if there was nude stuff covering underneath it, it looked like her boobs were out or about to show every time it moved. And I usually don’t care about skimpy costumes. But skimpy and ugly?
It won’t be a reach for the top couples, but the others are not gonna look so good dancing side by side with a pro couple. I’m shaking my head at this one.
Hope Kellie & Derek don’t get Argentine this week. I think 2 couples on the floor will ruin the mood and intimate feeling of the dance and be distracting. Don’t want the theme to ruin one of my favorite dances for my favorite couple!
They could have ditched that “Bruno” thing…ugh
The wrong encore dance..even worse tonight. I’m sorry but the choreo was just plain weird, all those “awkward” moves and it was just lurchy.
Val has some nerve to pat Derek on the back and say I don’t think the pros should “vote” against one another after he got on twitter last night and urged on Zendayas brat army.
And yes, Derek won the night anyway. He’s had 2 emotional nights in a row. First a couple of tears after Kellie’s dance and now tonight. Just one more thing I like about him and why I think his teaching, and his dances draw people and feel more genuine. He’s not afraid to show some real emotion once in a while and doesn’t seem to resort to the faked kind. That dance was a DWTS hi-light and Brilynn dances so beautifully you would never know she had a handicap. Truly amazing, I don’t understand how she can “spot” well and I would think that much impairment would cause disorientation and Derek featured her perfectly. Perfection. Inspiring.
Brilynn Rakes…. I was mesmerized. Not choked Up and teary, but silent. I had no words to describe how beautiful that was. Breathtaking.
No surprise to the results or Val/Karina or anything.
The average DWTS viewer cracks me up sometimes. We were talking about Zendaya and the twitter contests today. I don’t mind twitter contests, just once or twice a season. I mentioned how its unfair to everyone else because Zendaya has 2 million tweens behind her, and will win every week. The reply,” Yeah, but Zendaya is amazing.” My response,” I agree, but so are Kellie and Jacoby. Im afraid Zendaya is going to be shoved down our throats.” Their reply “But she deserves that.” I changed the subject to Kellie before I said something offensive.
Derek did indeed win the night.
His dance with Brilynn was breathtaking. She is such a beautiful young woman and Derek and her together were perfection. So inspiring.
Sheesh does that guy have 9 lives?? Get rid of DL already!! Awesome performance by Brilynn Rakes ๐
That whole twitter vote for the pros was so pointless. I don’t have a twitter account, and I was seriously considering making one for the heck of it. I’m sure glad I didn’t waste my time on it. All of that for a little dance leading into a commercial break?!?
Brilynn and Derek were amazing. I can’t stop watching the dance over and over again. STUNNING.
So glad Andy was called safe! I thought he deserved the encore dance instead of Aly and Mark. I too saw that stumble towards the end of Aly and Mark’s dance.
They made such a big deal over voting on Twitter for two of the pros to dance together tonight and it was just a short dance that we didn’t even get to see how it ended. I could have done without that behind the scenes thing about Bruno and allocated that time to Val and Karina and have them dance for a longer time because based on what we got to see, they were dancing great.
The spotlight dance with Derek and Brylinn was beautiful and mesmerizing. She is such an inspiration.
As far as the elimination goes, I agreed with Lisa going home.
Not too sure what to think about next week’s dancing side by side with the pros. As of now, I think the majority of the celebs will probably look really bad. Perhaps this would have been a better idea in the All-Stars season where the celebs already knew all of the dances and could have been able to meet the challenge.
Alright DL! Safe again, keep it going!
what did Val do after they announced pros (Val and Karina)? Haven’t seen show yet!!
When I see something like Karina and Val dancing, I’m sure Karina is one of the best Latin dancers in the world. Val is also exceptional. We could be honored with those two dancing more often together, regardless of who is Val’s brother.
They were amazing in that little piece of dance. I could watch them dance all night. We deserved more!
Interesting to see Karina and Val dance. Too bad it wasn’t Maks /snort. I do miss him being on this season because I do enjoy a lot of his humor/personality (when he’s not being overly hypocritical or one of his other flaws). I’m also sad to see Gleb go, although it was only a matter of time til Lisa ran out of steam. Unless it’s a big turnaround, I imagine Victor and possibly Sean might be in jeopardy next week.
Gods, that female dance in the beginning was so awful compared to the male dancers. I kept waiting for them to DANCE and not just move flail their arms about like cheerleaders. Disappointed in Sharna’s choreo there, especially since she’s been so good with Andy.
What else is there to say about the Spotlight performance? Those have a 100% success rate in making me cry, and tonight was no exception. Derek getting choked up – well my biggest weakness is watching a man fight back that type of emotion, hearing their voice crack as they are overwhelmed with feeling. Such beautiful moments, inspiring and memorable.
@ M Zin – you’re right!! Karina stopped competing years ago and was ranked #1 internationally back then – and she’s STILL considered one of the best Latin dancers in the world! And Val was national champion a ton of times in a row, and a highly decorated amateur competitor! I’ve always wanted to see what they’d dance like together but never thought it’d actually happen.
Finally, FINALLY have a “who-wore-it-better” moment for this season (after the disappointment of the cocktail dresses for the team photos): Emma’s costume for one of those going to commercial segue’s was the same costume worn by Peta in her team photo with Donald!
Sad to see Lisa go while she’s ill. Oh well. I enjoyed her short stay.
I have a general question.
Has there been a season when all women over the age of 30 have been eliminated by week 4? Or with this few remaining women at week 4? It seems very unusual to me, but I don’t really know.
What I do know is that there’s no one I feel like rooting for – definitely no one near my age (early 40s) or life experience. I wonder if this is affecting the ratings?… if I’m correct that it’s unusual. The viewership doesn’t necessarily match those who vote, especially with all the multiple account voting. I could be way off.
@Anna R – Yes! I follow Karina’s career since she was competing with Slavik and I don’t get tired of seeing her dance. I’d like to see more pro dances with her, especially with Val or Derek. That’s when we can remember that Karina is one of the best dancers in the world. I really admire her.
Best part of the Result show was the AT&T Spotlight performance by
Derek Hough & Brilynn Rakes! OMG, I knew they were going to make me bring out the tissue. Such an emotional, inspiring performance. Never saw Derek get so emotional. Brilynn was amazing and is such a passionate performer! I admire her determination and drive. This performance touched my heart. I loved the smile on is face when he met her! You could tell she inspired him as much as he inspired her! Besides his talents, its his humbleness that makes me appreciate him even more.
I love what Derek said on Twitter. He wrote, “An absolute joy to dance with the inspiring and very special Brilynn. She emulates everything about my philosophy in life. #passionfirst”
He definitely has a special gift for creating, memorable moments that last a lifetime.
Brilynn Rakes with Derek won the night and brought the tissues out for me. What an inspiration she is and thank you Derek for what you choreographed. You are an inspiration to so many people for so many reasons and was happy that she got to dance with her favorite. Just stunning!!! I can understand why he got so choked up because she has to be such an inspiration to him.
Why didn’t Andy get the Encore? Again, disappointed a second time that they didn’t pick him. @Cindy #11 I agree at least it wasn’t Sean and Peta again or having Zendaya and Val thrown front and center again either.
As a few others have mentioned about the women’s dance number I was surprised that Sharna choreographed it as I am so use to her doing such amazing things with Andy’s dances and was not amazed by this piece.
I so wish TPTB would stop with this Twitter nonsense and even though I don’t have it and didn’t vote I would have liked to see more of Karina (she is amazing and have always loved to watch her dance) and Val. The tiny bit we saw they were great. Since they made it a contest I would have preferred more of that dance and forget the Bruno stuff. They already gave Bruno his YMCA time last week. Give me more dancing any day!
Jennifer Lopez and Andrea Bocelli were really good together.
I agree with others about the way they handled who was going to be eliminated and why put Andy through that? I thought no Encore for Andy and then they made him sweat it out again.
I don’t know who is coming up with these ideas each week, but this one coming up I can’t even imagine how it is going to work out?
Sad to see Lisa and Gleb go, but I think she was ready. I was not expecting her to be as nice as she turned out to be and will miss Gleb as well. He is nice to look at and I liked him. Going to miss little Giggy as well. ๐
Won the night is an understatement. That Brilynn Rakes was just stunning. Her inner strength was visible in her every move. Beautiful! On the other hand, not surprised Lisa went home but was crossing my fingers it would be Sean. I’m hoping a personal connection to the music and the dance will be a deciding factor this year (like it use to be). I definitely want to see really good technique in the dancing, but I want the last curl of your fingers or unfurling of a leg to do the talking. Have the celebrities watch Brilynn over and over if they don’t get the idea of connecting to their dance.
Since I record the shows so I can zap through the commercials and other “frippery” I missed the Karina and Val “dance”. Until I came here I thought they had replaced it with the Bruno segment….
While I am not a fan of Jennifer Lopez; that duet with Andre was beautiful. And Anna and Val were beautiful together.
The only thing I like about next week is that I will be able to see Tristan on my screen again…..Can wait to see who Cheryl and DL get to dance beside…..that will really show his weaknesses
A few weeks ago I thought it was announced that Derek and Karina had won the pro dance or maybe I was dreaming. I’m guessing with the spotlight dance Derek had to bow out of the pro dance but Val and Karina were fantastic and the dance was much too short. I don’t care for the new dances. Contemporary seems like a bunch of running jumping and rolling on the floor to me.
Watching the encore last night it struck me that the solo part where she did the gymnastics wasn’t nearly as well integrated into the overall dance as Shawn’s were – it was rather odd. I think he should have gone outside the box and done something unexpected there.
Yes, Raine – I called Val classy for saying that and had several people tell me that it was actually rather arrogant and condescending. I do wonder if he doesn’t realize how hard Zendaya was spamming twitter for him. She was tweeting like….well, like her fans do. Probably more than I did. ๐ But she IS 16. I did look at her timeline once and she seems like she goes in and sends bunches of fans smiley faces every day or so….that’s really sweet and why she’s so popular with the kiddies.
Kate, on monday night Tom said that Derek and Karina were winning “so far” – that’s probably what you heard. Zendaya started spamming about an hour later, after the show was over and we didn’t stand a chance. ๐ Ah well, it taught me a valuable lesson. Don’t engage in stupid twitter games cuz you could spend all that time for a 20 second bumper dance. And you can’t beat tweens with phones in any case.
Leslie, #12, I thought the same thing. I think Lisa dropped out, and the producers thought that it would look better to say she was eliminated than having to leave. Out of the two, Victor should have gone home.
I thought Aly’s solo on her dance was more meant to be the 12 seconds or so seconds at the beginning before Mark came in then the tumbling which I agree kind was kind of just thrown in because they could. She did the dance better Monday but I think overall she still did very well with the dance and is showing improvement.
Next week seems confusing, starting with a pro-couple, bringing in the celeb couple for a bit to do it in synchronicity and then letting the celeb couple finish… why? Plus a pro dance where the celebs are somehow involved. I think Sharna said Mark and Derek were choreographing something together which should be fun to watch hopefully.
I hope DL gets the boot before the team dances, would hate for a team to be saddled with him.
Re: Zendaya’s ‘spamming’ her followers. Spam is unsolicited; by definition therefore, if YOU are following her, you have solicited it, and it’s not spam.
Oh jeez, renzii, now you’re just being “that guy” at the party who annoys everyone with their semantics. Calm down – it’s not that serious.
So they are going to need 18 extra pros next week for the side-by-side dance? Counting the troupe, eliminated pros and the “regulars” who sat out the season, it sounds like they will be short pros, unless the pros dance with more than one celebrity or they bring back people like Lacey and Dmitry and more. I’m surprised they are doing this so early when there are so many poor and mediocre dancers.
I’m wondering if the side-by-side thing is kind of like those “here’s what to look for in this dance” segments they used to do (and folks here have said they’d like to see again) – only they’ve decided to incorporate it into the celebs’ dances instead of having a general segment, because it’s a “new challenge” and “more exciting”.
Just got to say I enjoyed the show last night. First time in a while I’ve been able to say that. While not a J.Lo. fan, I thought her duet with Andrea Bocelli was lovely. The added bonus of Val and Anna dancing was also a treat.
I also thought the sight impaired girl dancing with Derek was the highlight of the show. Can you imagine how thrilled that young lady was to dance with her idol? And to do it so beautifully. Yeah, I had tissues out on that one.
All the angst about the pro twitter thingy was for naught. You barely saw Val and Karina. I think Val is not liking the twitter turn this season either. That’s probably why he said what he did. It is true that you can’t beat tweens and teens on twitter. When you know the outcome, it isn’t a contest anymore. Back to Val and Karina…would love to see them dance more.
I also liked that Karina was wearing the same outfit for that dance with Val that she did for one of her numbers with Apolo. I knew it looked familiar & after googling/rewatching it definitely was.
Although it was a few seconds, I’m glad Val and Karina won and danced together. Both are great dancers. I tweeted many many times for Val to win. I agree with Val, producers should not put Pros against each other. The spotlight should be on the celebrities. Wouldn’t mind seeing Karina and Val dance again.
Forgot to mention that Val and Anna were great. The highlight of the night was definitely Andrea Bocelli. He should be back every season.
#7 Are you reading my mind on all points, especially BB-C’s dress! Ugh. Why would any female put that on and not realize the similarities? Will this be a new trend–thongs for the sternum?
Why does it feel like DWTS is going under for the 2nd time here? First, the super-hyped All Star Season, that wasn’t. Now we are back in the ballroom expecting things to return to ‘normal’ once again at Planet Mirrorballus (Annie B fan too!) and they are not. Come on Conrad Green and company, let ’em dance, let ’em dance, let ’em dance.
Has any couple ever gotten more than one encore dance? It seems to me, they only ever get ONE, which makes good sense in my view.
I’m sorry to see Lisa, Gleb and Giggy go, but considering who was in the bottom two, this was a good result. Lisa was ready and Victor wants to stay. I’m going to enjoy gentle, hard-working Victor this week because the fat lady is warming up for him, I fear.
This was one of the few results shows I actually enjoyed. Wish they’d always announce almost everyone safe right off the bat and then just run with the musical entertainment. The highlight was Brilynn and Derek’s performance. It was breathtaking. I couldn’t take my eyes off them. Brilynn is simply amazing and I loved how obviously moved Derek was afterwards. I thought Andrea Boccelli and Jennifer Lopez sounded great together, and what a pleasure to see an Anna and Val number. They’re a good pairing on the dance floor.
As for the Tweet-winning pro number, well, it was a nice teaser for what a Val/Karina number could give us. If I was a pro, I’d be happy to only have to do a 20-second bumper since you have to slap this thing together in about 15 minutes on Tuesday morning. Hopefully, TPTB will realize this is a waste of the pros’ time and ditch the idea.
I’m going to give the idea of a pro couple joining the celeb’s routine the benefit of the doubt. It’s not a horrible idea, but I agree with the comment upthread that it’s too soon. Just like the celeb’s solos, I feel it should be deferred until the semi-finals. Most of the celebs are going to look pretty awful next to 3 pros. I just hope they don’t stick sweet Tristan with DL and Cheryl (although Tristan wouldn’t mind since he said on AfterBuzz that DL was his favorite).
I expect the “side by side” pros will do everything possible to make the Celebrity look good, just like in the trio dances.
#49 She said she LOOKED at her twitter….she probably doesn’t FOLLOW her on twitter. Even if she did, it would be because Zendaya IS on the show that this blog is about.
Even Val himself was tweeting pics of he and Derek trending and he asked Val to keep it going. So to say on tv that they shouldn’t be putting pros against each other on twitter is odd. lol
Yes, there have been couples who got more than one encore dance. I know Derek got more than one with Lil’ Kim, mainly because I think someone else got hurt. I think Evan and Anna got more than one. I’m sure they don’t limit it to one per season.
Yeah, someone doesn’t understand twitter. One doesn’t have to follow anyone to see their timeline, if it’s public. And they have these things called “lists”. Quite helpful. ๐
Last season Apolo and Karina had 2 encore dances as well.
I’m not sure if this is the right forum for this comment, but did anyone else see the tweets Carrie Ann Inaba sent out to Lisa about using her dog in the show and how it was an animal rights issue as if he was being abused? At first I thought she was joking, but I don’t think she was. That’s taking it a bit too far. If she had a problem with it, take it up with production, don’t call her out publicly the day after she leaves the show! ๐
I do actually understand how twitter works; the point I was making was simply that if didn’t follow her, but you went into her timeline and saw the tweets, most of which actually were re-tweets of fan messages, you couldn’t actually call it spamming, since it wasn’t sent directly to you.
I wasn’t even judging the number of tweets, or re-tweets, just saying that the word ‘spamming’ has a derogatory connotation and implies that one was bombarded with unwanted comments and pictures.
BTW, did you hear that Maks will also be dancing with Karina & acoby next week?
No one said you didn’t know how Twitter works, renzii, and the rest of us know how it works, too; “spam” is used here colloquially to describe anything that’s repeated over and over and over again, without any added benefit to the reader. You got a little nitpicky, renzii – like if I said “I’m going to get in the Jacuzzi” and you said “Actually, Courtney, Jacuzzi is a name brand, and not the brand you have – so you should say ‘hot tub’.” You can see why that would be annoying to some, can’t you? And yes, Heidi meant it to have a derogatory connotation – because she thought it looked rather desperate on Zendaya’s part. I’m guessing that you probably had more of a beef with Heidi just saying something negative about Zendaya, but weren’t sure how to approach it – so you decided to debate the semantics of the word “spam”. Again – it’s NOT that serious.
Yes, people are talking about Maks dancing with Jacoby & Karina here.
Gee, the word “spam” is derogatory?? I had NO idea.

MY POEM FOR WEEK FOUR
THE YEAR OF THE DANCE
What would you choose to be the best year of your life
March 22, 1975, the day Ken and I became man and wife
That is my choice when I married my beloved, dear man
For 26 years we were married but God had another plan
Ken died from cancer, it was the end to a lovely romance
I am sure in Heaven we will have our year of the dance
The years of the dance were chosen by each dancing pair
Many sentimental occasions reflected in the ballroom air
Zendaya and Val tripped a light fantastic Samba on the floor
Victor and Lindsey attacked a Paso Doble strong for sure
Jacoby and Karina dedicated their lively Foxtrot to his son
Gleb and Lisa Cha Cha Chaed but their dancing was done
Aly and Mark wowed with a spectacular Contemporary show
Kellie and Derek Rumbaed to her husband’s magnificent solo
The Viennese Waltz flowed across the ballroom by three duos
Ingo and Kym, Sean and Peta glided like poetry and like prose
Andy and Sharna performed with grace for his beautiful girl
Each dance was a special year, the duos did whirl and twirl
The years were chosen, the dances done, the night complete
Until next Monday night when again in the ballroom we meet!
Written By Lois A Troutman, April 11, 2013
WHAT YEAR WOULD YOU CHOOSE AS THE BEST YEAR OF YOUR LIFE!
MY YEAR I MARRIED MY DEAR, BELOVED KEN AND BECAME A WIFE!
