"Dance is the hidden language of the soul" ~ Martha Graham. That's what DWTS makes me think of every Monday night. To read more about me and my other interests, see Lisa Kay Photography. You can also follow me at Voguerista Twitter & Voguerista Soundcloud.
“I got a job!” Val just killed me in this! lol 🙂
Cheryl, six would mean that Derek was evenly paired. Nothing wrong with that????
The end killed me ….
Cheryl : Derek does need 6 balls… if you know what I mean ….
Tony : Especially if they mirrored 😀
EDIT B…
Does NOT …
Oh Tony, so jealous. Show off when partners are capable. If Melissa was hit best, he should retire. Also see what Derek did with a variety of partners. Just saying Derek. Cheryl and Tony, Derek doesn’t care if he wins maybe they can take that advice. Or jealous because now Derek can add NY Times best seller to his resume?
I think they know who DWTS gave him has a partner… hence Cheryl comment (which I find distasteful – although funny)…
Well done to Derek for #1 best seller !
Derek does it need any mirror balls. the statement is how many mirror balls had Derek earned.?
Six is a nice numbers, but we must wait for season 19 partners to be announced. I do not think Cheryl and Tony were being vindictive, just with today’s instant media and rabid fans one must be careful
I love Val saying “I got a job” 🙂 It’s easy to forget that this is really their job.
I agree, they weren’t being vindictive.
I wonder if Derek is paired with Shania Twain
Agree with #Stoli – Derek has put that phase behind him, he is in for the journey.
I think that had to lure him back with a good partner although it’s no easy to top Amy ….
The remark that Cheryl & Tony had was, for me, distasteful…
Tony: “We’re at the mercy of who we’re paired up with.”
No Tony, you’ve got it backwards. They are at the mercy of who they’re paired up with, which explains a whole lot. What a crappy attitude.
I remember Derek’s mom being really excited when Derek was suppose to be with Toni Braxton who had a show in Las Vegas. That way she might get to see Derek some. So, if Derek is with Shania, she’ll be very happy. Although, I’ll be interested to see if Shania is on the show, because Celine just cancelled all her shows at Caesar’s until next year for health issues. It would be tough for Caesar’s to lose Celine and also have Shania on a short schedule. Might work out though.
Good observation Susan.
But that’s Tony for you. When he doesn’t have a ringer he complains about the contestants with dance experience, when he does have a ringer or even a younger able bodied celeb then everything’s peachy keen and “nothing to see here!”.
That would be awesome John!
If Derek approached the show the way Tony approaches the show, he would have been out in week two last season. Hell, in several seasons. Joanna Krupa? Lil’ Kim? Maria with her broken feet?
And let’s really look at Tony’s past partners. Audrina? Great dancer. Chynna? Great dancer. Melissa? Great dancer. Leah? Not bad at all, but over rated when with Tony. Stacey Kiebler? Very good. Jane/Marissa/Susan?? None of these women were WORSE than Joanna/Maria/Ricki/Jennie and I would argue that they are actually BETTER than Shannon or Joanna. So what’s really the problem, Tony? That Derek always gets great partners? Or that he knows how to capitalize on all his partners and you DON’T??
Yeah Tony’s problem is that his choreography is dull and boring. Derek has a gift at knowing how to make his partners shine regardless of their skill level.
Well if Derek is seen in Prince Edward Island (Canada) near or on August 30, then he’s definitely dancing with Shania, as she’s performing in Charlottetown that night. 🙂
Tony is my least favorite from them all. If anyone needed a break, it’s him,…season after season.
And let’s not forget his ick taste for costuming his partners too.
I would love to see Shania on the show, she is one of my favorite singers Love Her
I totally agree PHeidi….
Cheryl just got put on my sheet list! Along with Tony!
I’m sorry but, that comment was uncalled for, Cheryl just blew any class she ever had. Maybe she isn’t getting any, if you know what I mean! 🙂
