PureDWTS Season 19 Mini-Spoiler O’ the Day – Sept. 12
TGIF, kids! Only 3 days till showtime 😉
Song & dance spoilers (and eventually running order spoilers) here. Rest of the mini-spoilers here.
How ’bout a lil bit of girl talk? More specifically, about Lolo & Sadie. Like Alfonso, Lolo is coming across as very serious & focused in rehearsal – not very big on smiling, and according to Deep Throat, “coming across a bit intense & Hope Solo-esque”. YIKES! But she does seem to be opening up to Keo – slowly – and is thankfully not constantly fighting with her partner like Hope did 😛 Deep Throat attributes a lot of her attitude to her being an Olympic athlete – just an extremely tough, hard worker. She seems to be having some issues keeping her shoulders down when she’s dancing, but other than that, she’s moving decently well right now.
As for Lil Miss Sadie – she and Mark are apparently a match made in heaven, and their cha-cha is “super cute”. With heels on, Sadie & Mark are about the same height (and she may actually be a tad taller – teehee!), and Mark thinks that the judges are going to be “impressed with Sadie’s hip action”. Deep Throat says that Mark’s choreography style seems to suit Sadie well – very young & hip, and not too sexy.
Thank you for all the inside info :))
I was keeping tabs on the spoilers, so TYVM, Coutney!
Oohh, could Lolo be the “whiny” one? Honestly, I didn’t think of her when you first mentioned about the complaining celeb. But I definitely see her as serious because of her Olympic athlete mentality. Hope she’ll loosen up some more to really enjoy the show.
I’m glad that Sadie and Mark wok well together. Mark’s experience with Shawn really comes in handy now. Cannot wait to see Sadie debut her hip-action on Monday.
I can totally see that Lolo is very focused in rehearsals due to her olympic training. She does need to let loose and have some fun.
I’ve enjoyed a lot of the videos that Mark & Sadie have been posting. they do seem like they are really cute together. With Mark having Shawn at 17 and Aly at 18, he definitely knows how to make the dances work to his partners. Really looking forward to Monday night.
Eek! What’s wrong with me? So sorry for the typos, especially in your name, Courtney.
Thanks for the scoops!
Hmmm…I was worried Lolo might end up being Hope Solo-esque and thought she could be the “whiny” celeb potentially. I really like Keo though and find their natural flirty-ness charming so hopefully he’s able to get her to loosen up and have fun. I also have no idea what kind of fan base she has and with Keo being new the audience has to latch on to them.
I’m liking Sadie the more and more I see her with Mark! I’ve really enjoyed the Mark we’ve gotten the past two seasons so it would be a nice surprise if he could make another Candace like run with Sadie (though the finals might be a long shot).
Is it Monday night yet???
I can’t wait I can’t!
I figured Lolo would end up being very serious and focused. I’m guessing it’s just the Olympian in her always wanting to perfect everything. Hope she remembers to have a little fun too because that’s what it’s about also.
After seeing Sadie and Mark together I could not picture her with any other pro. I am so happy she didn’t end up with Val (although it would have saved us from the Janelskiy showmance). With Val, I don’t think Sadie would be letting out her personality as much as she is with Mark; their personalities together make for an amazing team. I have a feeling on the first week she might surprise just about everyone.
If Lolo is showing some sign of strain ala HopeSolo, she’s in better shape than Solo was because she has Keo for a partner. He seems so light hearted and genuine I think he’ll be able to loosen her up. I thought her perfectionism might get in her way, and her fear of performing “girly” dances on national television would be intimidating but I think Keo is enough of a positive ray of light to counteract that.
I can see Sadie and Mark being similar to Katherine and Mark (one of my fave DWTS partnerships of ALL Time)
It sounds like Sadie may be the dark horse, and she’s the cutest little thing! 😀
So happy to hear that about Sadie, you don’t know how gladhappy I am she is not the next Bristol. Like someone said before I wanted her at first with Val to switch things up again, but now I can’t see her with anyone but Mark. Great partnership

I didn’t know who Sadie was before this. I knew the show but don’t watch it so had no idea of her personality or anything. But I tell you, the videos of her and Mark are the best. So fun, so cute, so enjoyable. Mark looks like he is having a great time. I can’t wait to see them!!!
I hope that for Keo’s sake that Lolo is more Natalie Coughlin than Hope Solo.
I’m a little worried about Lolo, her seriousness from being a trained Olympian and her faith. I forget which interview it was but she was half freaking out about the close dances or that Keo tried to hold her hand or something. I thought, yikes! He isn’t going to steal her virginity in the Rumba or any of the romantic or sexy dances. If she gets awkward and stiffens up, it’ll weird for everyone. Loosen up a little Lolo, please. It’s just a role.
Another great mini-spoiler. I’m loving the little daily doses of inside intel. Thanks, Court!
Can’t wait to see Sadie and Mark on Monday, and I’m so surprised to be saying that because the whole Duck Dynasty thing is a major turnoff to me. Kudos to the DWTS matchmakers for giving her to Mark. He has a knack for giving the inhibited ladies the confidence to get out their and shake it. I think it’s his goofy, non-threatening personality.
Yep, sounds like we’re seeing Lolo training as an Olympian right now because it’s a touchstone for her in this totally new and very scary world of dance. I think Keo is a great addition to DWTS but together these two have a pretty big learning curve to deal with. I hope they have a solid performance on Monday.
Sadie and Mark are a great match. Love all their videos they have posted. I think Sadie will surprise a lot of people, especially those that haven’t seen Duck Dynasty.
