Dancing with the Stars Season 19, Week 5 – Who’s Dancing What….and When? (Song Spoilers)
Wow, everyone is getting a tiny bit hosed this week in terms of either song or style – in some cases both. Except for Janel of course. The pimpage increases – do wish they’d quit trying so hard to make her happen and just let the show evolve more organically. All you screamin’ Val fans whining and crying about Derek asking Colbie to sing while he and Beth danced can STFU now. Not only did she get a dance very close to what she’s trained in, she got the artist singing for her this week (rumor, anyway) – and that artist is also guest judge! Much more preferential treatment than Derek going to a friend and asking her to sing. I expect that the hypocritical among you won’t be satisfied, regardless. Too bad, so sad.
Actually, giving Lea “Broadway” is pretty obnoxious too, considering that she just had contemporary – but I think she could use two good weeks in a row. She’s not getting the pimpage that Janel is. I like her a lot and think she has a lot of potential. Unfortunately, doing Broadway doesn’t really give Val the opportunity to fix her posture problems that she’s had in ballroom/latin numbers.
Rumor going around that Joey Fatone is singing Jonathan and Peta’s song – for reals? Too much weirdness for me this week. 🙂
ETA: Mike and Antonio…the latter is totally screwed, I’m thinking. What a craptastic song.
ETA2: So, they won’t show Tommy’s “salute” on camera, but will give him songs which heavily imply the same? :::rolls eyes:::

Love Sadie’s song but it doesn’t sound very Charleston to me, although I’m sure Derek will work round it well to make it great!
And the artist singing for Janel’s routine happens to be a guest judge, too, so actually no pimpage there–NOT. I think I need to look up these songs on YT. Some sound familiar to me, others not.
Thanks for these spoilers, Princess Heidi!
Joey singing Jonathan and peta’s song is probably more than a rumor as Joey retweeted an article about it. Seems that he’s gonna also gonna have a role in the band in general this week. I’ve noticed him hanging around the show a lot this season, maybe he’s trying to land a more permanent gig on the show, whether it’s music related or something social like what Lacey and Dominic have going. Also on another note, I’ve been dying for You Can’t Stop the Beat to be used so I am very excited for Lea’s number now! Should be fun.
Apparently Joey Fatone sang with the band last week as well. Saw a tweet where Alfonso mentioned it.
WORD Heidi on Janel. lolll
Hmmmm I can see how Crazy Stupid Love will actually work really well for the Charleston dance, just listened to it for the first time.
Hah, Derek dancing to a Cheryl Cole song 🙂
Hah, indeed, Fig. 😀 He seemed totally fine with Cheryl – and she with him – but he did unfollow her on twitter when she got married.
She did practically call him a saint in her book, so he can’t be too mad. 🙂
Yeah he doesn’t seem the type to have bitter break-ups or anything. But maybe he did that out of respect for her new husband, or something. Who knows. Regardless, I’m sure he’ll manage just fine 🙂
That reminds me though, I still haven’t cracked open his book yet.
Some of her wacko fans that hated on him the whole time they were dating (or who were in complete denial), hated on him for not mentioning her AT ALL in his book. Boy can’t win. 🙂 But he doesn’t mention any of his post-teenage girlfriends. Smart man.
I feel so torn on Janel’s song/dance. I LOVE “Mama Knows Best” but I just don’t like her at all.
Very intrigued by Derek and the Cheryl Cole (whatever her new last name is now) song. It’d be great if this could help Cheryl cross-over to America.
Also very interested in Val’s broadway after the ‘America’ performance. If he keeps up the ascetics maybe he’ll have a new career path for after DWTS.
Still hoping Emma/Tommy get Lou Bega’s ‘Mambo No. 5’ for their mambo.
Guest judges have had stars/pros dance to them before during the same week before, right? (Outside of the group dances like Ricky Martin last season.)
I dont see how Jessie J is going to judge the dance if she’s too busy singing to really watch it, so I hope she’s not singing it. Hopefully its more along the lines of Ricky Martin judging when a couple of people danced to his songs.
Im not gonna lie, i kinda hate that usher song, but Mark will probably work wonders with it and make me like it.
It will also be interesting to see what Val does with Hairspray. Crazy stupid love is fun & catchy, so should make for a really cute charleston
I dont think Jessie J will b singing in Janels number. She will perform but something else. Last season several in latin week danced on Ricky Martins songs but he didnt sing it along. Its a great song for burlesque. Altho i am not sure burlesque is a type of dance suitable for a family show
well, we know now who is going to give 10 to janel.
Hmmm…not sure what to think of the songs so far. I do like the Hairspray song and I can see Val coming up with good choreography for Lea as jive is his forte. I agree that hopefully she’ll have two good weeks in a row and that might help propel her further along in the competition.
If you are going to use the music of a guest judge you have to have more than 1 celeb perform to them. It looks so lopsided and to have her doing burlesque on top of that? No thank you. I can hear the comments from CAI now “You’re a star!”
Really hoping the audience doesn’t fall for it.
I was hoping they would use that Usher song for a ChaChaCha in the upcoming weeks but I guess using it for Bethany and Mark’s Hip Hop routine works too. That song’s very catchy so I dig it. Same goes for “You Can’t Stop the Beat”; I wanted a Jive to this song sooo badly but I guess a nice Broadway number will do. Interested to see what Val comes up with…
Sadie and Derek’s song doesn’t sound like a conventional Charleston song but I think it’ll work well. If anyone knows how to make a song work for a dance even if they don’t go together too well, it’s Derek.
Jonathan and Peta’s song is awesome and it would be great if Joey Fatone sang it! :O Love that guy!
I don’t think Jessie will be singing Janel’s song mainly because if she is going to be judging her dance she can’t be singing and watching her at the same time. Her focus as a “judge” needs to be on the dance. It still is, however, very pimpy to give her a song by the guest judge. Kinda like when Meryl was the only one to get a Ricky Martin song last season when he guest judged (not counting the team dances of course). Ugh. Still can’t get over the fact that they basically gave her a second Jazz to dance. And then people think Derek gets favoritism? Right..
Think people are reading a little too much into Janel getting preferential treatment. She’s been given a new pro without a lot of fan support and a dance style potentially offensive to lot of the viewers. Preferential treatment would be getting say, Derek & Contemporary.
I’m thinking Lea (cough cough Val) got a Broadway song with full production support to “make up” for the West Side Story rant. Lea can dance. I hope Val doesn’t blow this with a huge production number.
Fatone is a pimpin’ at DWTS for sure. Rock This Town is the group swing number from Season 4 when he dance with Kym Johnson (tear). I miss her.
I think giving burlesque to Janel is NOT in her best interest. Maybe TPTB aren’t pimping her but rather, trying to get rid of her. I do like Janel (don’t love her, just like) and this whole burlesque theme is really turning me off and I haven’t seen it yet! We’ll shall see how it all plays out….
People are reading way to much into Burlesque IMO. It’s like everyone’s expecting her to hip thrust through the whole routine, grope her partner and strip down to a bikini (although being a 20 year old male I wouldn’t be complaining ;D). They’ll have lifts, extensions and some serious pouting but I can’t see it going OTT.
Julianne Hough was in the Burlesque film so I’m sure she’ll judge her accordingly, although I do agree getting a Jessie J song guarantees her 9s at least as you can’t make the guest judge look bad. I must say I’m a bit gutted I have to support her this week cause of Artem. I hate her attempt at a “showmance” with Val passionately and would love for them to get knocked out before the final.
Sadie certainly isn’t getting hosed. Charleston is literally the perfect dance for her and I’ll be shocked if she doesn’t get any 10s. Again I’m certainly not complaining as she’s one of my favourites along with Lea, Tommy & Alfonso.
@M8 – if you want to support Artem you should still vote for Lea. If Lea goes then so does Artem. You can obviously still support his dance with Janel in the spiritual sense though…not sure how but you know what I mean 🙂
@M8 – Considering that she already groped her switch partner upon meeting him, I don’t think the groping is too far-fetched of an assumption. And what is burlesque, really? A sensual jazz derivative that often involves gyrating the hips and the removal of clothing. And I can absolutely see it going OTT – I certainly don’t think she’s gonna get up there and do the Hokey Pokey. And I’m looking at the big picture with her showmance with Val, within the context of this week – I can totally see Erin asking Val, post Janel/Artem’s performance, “So are you jealous of how steamy that routine got???” I’d put money on it. And I know I can’t be the only one that feels sorry for her boyfriend, aka the “forgotten man” of this season of DWTS…she’s making him look like a total chump.
#23 Oh don’t worry my votes will be going straight to Lea, my loyalty is with Artem full stop. I have no intention of supporting Janel whatsoever I just want her to get good scores this week alone as you say, so it doesn’t reflect badly on Artem.
#24 Regarding the reveal I think that scene was orchestrated more to show Artem off to female viewers and make Val jealous from the producers. I very much doubt it was Janel’s idea to blindfold herself. I’ve actually been to a west end production a while back with my girlfriend where Burlesque/Cabaret was a part of the odd routine but I really can’t remember it enough to give an honest opinion.
What I do know is that Artem is one of the best when it comes to choreography (no bias whatsoever ;D). You can guarantee he will produce a classy, hot routine which will unfortunately show Janel off in the best light to the judges. He’s danced to the song before with Holly Valance in a foxtrot strangely enough.
Regarding your prediction on Erin’s comments, I fully expect it to happen as well and just like you I’m dreading it. It’s just so embarrassing and they need to take the hint and show some respect.
Of course, Ammie – but that’s not the same as having a couple that you will be scoring dance to your song with you singing it. If that actually happens and I don’t think we’re sure about it.
M8 – please take note of the words “tiny bit” in front of the word “hosed” in the post. Context is everything. In Sadie’s case, the tiny bit is that the song is so modern and not typical for a Charleston. While having Derek means that this isn’t much of an issue, we still have stupid judges who, in the past, haven’t cut Sadie ANY break at all and have been underscoring her.
Oh, I’m sure the producers MADE Janel spend several minutes groping her new partner. :::rolls eyes:::
Yeah Courtney… And imagine if one of the guys had groped one of the ladies in such a manner. Janel even felt his buttocks!!!
And if my memory serves me correctly, didn’t Janel run her hands all over Val upon their first meeting?
It was week 1 or 2, Sandy, that she did that really awkward, fake looking chest massage on Val.
Why would the show use a song from cheryl Cole who is not really known in America for Derek to dance to? To bad the show could by find a more traditional song for them :/ at least we know Derek can create magic with any song given to him.
Heidi I fully agree! Sadie has definately been underscored in the past couple of weeks, which increases my belief that she’s due a proper breakthrough week with a 39/40 score. Being from the UK I’m used to seeing Charlestons and they have always been a very generously scored dance. I know most of the judges are different especially with no Len, but I think CAI will give the same mark Bruno will so I’d say it’s a fair comparison.
I accept your point regarding the song. For me Len is always the judge that has the odd moan about music being wrong for a certain dance genre. With him out of the picture this week I don’t see such a problem. I can’t remember but didn’t Derek choreograph a Charleston to Bang Bang once? It’s been done in UK before and I’m sure he’ll have no problems with the Cheryl Cole song. I’ve never been a big fan of the Charleston as a dance but I’m looking forward to seeing what Derek will do for Sadie.
Yes honestly, out of the millions of songs out there, they had to choose a Cheryl Cole song for Derek to dance to and it isn’t even a Charleston song.
I agree with some earlier posters about about Burlesque likely doing Janel more harm than good. Sure, she will likely be able to dance it well, but I think it will be a turn off for a lot of DWTS voters. I think she also gave an interview at that People party last night promising a “racy” routine so I am sure it will all be a bit much as she is a bit much in general anyway. I like Val but have not warmed up to Janel at all and I’ve heard that from a lot of people this season.
Did you catch Jessie J on GMA apparently she will be judging on technique,extensions,pointed feet and she hates a sickle foot ;).She did go to performance art school. I was nt sure if she was joking or not she has a dark sense of humor 🙂
Maybe I’m just a glass half full type of girl, but I think all the ladies got dances that are good for them. Hip Hop might help Beth show some personality and connect with fans, Janel’s is in her wheelhouse, Lea seems super excited about Broadway and Derek should help Sadie excel at the Charleston. I don’t see production favoring Janel over anyone else. I think if they were going to do Burlesque, she was the only girl who could get it. Beth and Leah are too timid and Sadie’s family would never allow it. If anything, I would say Janel’s taking a big risk, since the dance could alienate voters.
That is a very good questions, ain’t it Carolyn. I have a feeling we won’t know the answer for a bit. Unless of course Cheryl is still in LA. That could make things interesting. 🙂
M8, I’m not sure that Derek has ever choreographed an actual Charleston on DWTS – I would have to go back and look or ask one of the peeps who pay much more attention to that than I do. I do know that he tends to put a lot of Charleston elements in some of his quicksteps, so that could be where it is coming from.
And right after I wrote this I realized he probably had Charleston with Amber, so I went and looked sure enough – I think that’s the only one though. Although that was a great one. Lucky for him, if he goes traditional flapper dress the parents should be fine with it.
As for Janel and her Burlesque – I think it’s success for failure is in Artem’s hands. I’m curious to see how it goes. The thing that bugs is that it is unlikely to be even remotely challenging for her and, as previously noted, there are no requirements, unlike most of the other dances.
Heidi, I wonder if Artem could struggle with what to do in the absence of rules. Sometimes when there are no guidelines, and lots of options available, we don’t choose wisely. And if he is known for traditional choreography in the UK, he may struggle to come up with something which wows the audience.
I like both Sadie & Beth’s songs for both of their dances. Mark’s plenty capable of choreographing a killer hip-hop dance for Bethany, and we all know Derek’s gonna knock it out the park for Sadie’s Charleston. I do think they can easily change the arrangement of “Crazy Stupid Love”, I mean they easily did it with Beyonce’s “Crazy In Love” on the The Great Gatsby soundtrack that Brant & Peta quickstepped to back in season 17.
well, I’m ready to vomit over the “desperation & trying too hard” producer-pimp-age factor coming from Janel, not to mention I was kinda icked out with the way she was feeling up Artem in their Instagram vid. I just hope their Burlesque is a bit more avantgarde & not too trashy. I’ve really come love Artem so far and cannot wait until he’s back with Lea.
And speaking of Lea, I just really wish for her Broadway dance that they had given her something from Cabaret considering she played Sally Bowles in the national tour cast back in the late 90’s instead of “You Can’t Stop the Beat” from Hairspray (getting bad flashbacks to Mya & Dmitry’s underwhelming freestyle).
That’s something I hadn’t considered, machane, but it’s a very good point. It’s the problem that I think Maks and his gang have from time to time – it’s kinda like a disconnect that this is a TV Reality show and not an actual ballroom competition.
Such a fun array of dances…..well except for that whole burlesque thing….which has possible trainwreck written all over it. Joey fatone……yay! Would be nice to see him sing on the show…..not really sure what he sounds like by himself but I am a 90s kid that worshiped nsync and I can’t really name one song he was lead on.
Side note, I oddly am loving the song mark and Bethany have. It’s catchy and definately one of those songs that I can imagine is big in the clubs.
#37 Princess Heidi, Derek did the Charleston twice with Amber in S17 if I remember correctly. Once earlier in the season and then again as their redemption dance during the finals. I think the song was Bang, Bang by Will I Am. I do remember them dancing it on GMA the morning after they won.
Would someone please share the Rubric for Bollywood, Burlesque and Broadway? Having watched lots of YouTube tonight, each one of these dances has a wide arc of design, styling, and energy.
Derek’s Flamenco with Kellie will be hard to beat. Should be interesting to see Cheryl and Alfonso throw this one down.
Not being a music maven, I love the song spoilers. It gives me a chance to look up the songs. Thanks, PH!
I was pleasantly surprised (not to mention relieved) that I liked both Sadie/Derek’s and Bethany/Mark’s music. I think the “boys” will be able to do each other proud and make their switch-up partners look great this week!
Janel’s song has the right burlesque vibe, but I can’t say I like it. The sex-factor in a burlesque number doesn’t bother me at all; but the Janel pimpage does, and the off-the-floor groping as a way to get people talking is gross.
I’m looking forward to seeing Lea dance to “You Can’t Stop the Beat”, and I’m glad they didn’t give her anything from “Cabaret”. If they had, I can just hear Erin: “So this must have been like ‘old home week’ for you since you were in the national touring company for Cabaret.”
Jonathan and Peta’s song works for me, and I think Jitterbug suits his personality. So I hope this dance will be a confidence boost for Jonathan. He seems like a decent guy who’s having a bit of a rough ride.
I have done the same thing this season Cidra. Never heard All About that
Bass until it hit the DWTS Spoiler page here. It has become one of my faves. Listened to the Cheryl Cole song too. I enjoyed it more, minus the video. My kids are impressed that I am expanding my musical horizons! HA
@dancewithyou, Broadway and Burlesque have never been danced before in competition on the show (if Helio & Chelsie hadn’t been eliminated during All-Stars they would’ve danced Broadway).
Bollywood has only been danced once during competition by Gilles & Peta during All-Stars, although Shawn & Derek danced a kick-ass Bhangra which is in the same dance genre as Bollywood originating from India.
The thing with Broadway, Burlesque, and Bollywood is that there’s more room for interpretation and that it’s not as strict regarding certain steps unlike with say the Mambo, Charleston, or Jitterbug.
dancewithyou, I find listening without watching the video works best for me when I’m trying to figure out if a “modern” song will work with an old dance style.
Congrats on impressing your kids. PureDWTS, bringing generations together one song spoiler at a time. LOL
I think what bothers me the most about the Janel situation is by week 6 she’ll have been challenged very little but yet she’s this supposed great dancer (or so the judges keep telling us). I don’t think Val is pushing her nearly as hard as he has his past partners. I feel like I still can’t get a good feel on her ability because of the dances she’s had thus far. I wonder if her technique in the Jive is what her real capability level is and she’s been able to get away with having a subpar technique this long.
I just have to hope the judges “get real” once she goes back to ballroom and calls Val on not challenging her enough and wanting more from her.
What’s every body’s problem with Janel! She doesn’t control the dances she gets so it’s not her fault and also her and Bethany have had the same dance style week 1-4 so if Bethany got burlesque would you guys be saying there pimping her? Week 3 Beth got a jAzz and now she has hip hop, jazz and hiphop are some what the same style but hip hop has more sharper moves. burlesque has never been done on Dwts so it’s kinda not fare but Janel and Artem are awesome and are gonna do great with the style they been given hopefully she gets a ball room dance next week
I feel that by “Burlesque” they mean the Christina Aguilera/Pussycat Dolls Burlesque and not the 1940s inspired, popularised by Dita Von Teese Burlesque. And because of that, honestly whatever she will do I won’t be impressed by Janel.
Why? Because for example, if Alfonso nails his flamenco it will show how versatile he is. If he doesn’t, well it’s a difficult dance anyway and you can’t be perfect everytime. If Bethany nails her hiphop, it will show what a great performer she can be. If she fails, like Alfonso it will be forgivable. But if Janel, the confident jazz trained sexy girl, does an amazing 10s worthy burlesque: big freaking whoop! It won’t be impressive. And if she fails, I will wonder what kind of flop trained dancer can’t even do a pop-jazz routine right.
Long story short: they should have give her a lindy hop or a swing. THAT would have be risk for her.
I’m torn right now on whether I leave the room when Janel dances or watch it. Out of all the switches, that’s the only one I’m not interested in seeing. I’ve said before, I can’t connect with her, and it doesn’t matter who her partner is. But I don’t think this is a style of dance that should be on this show. I’d rather see bizarre combinations like the Knight Rider Bhangra than burlesque. And I would rather see Michael or Tommy in the semi finals than see Janel make it that far.
I hope Beth and Mark will have nicki minaj’s part of the song included in their dance, I think it sounds pretty cool
LOL Samara – got the memo, did ya? 🙂
Wrapping, I think Bollywood is actually VERY strict – that’s always been my impression from SYTYCD. The problem is the judges – they are CLUELESS and gave Gilles a high score for what was a piece of crap dance.
Broadway and Brulesque – you’re right. No standard.
Just my guesses on scores:
Alfonso and Cheryl (10,10,10,10)
Sadie and Derek (10,10,10,10)
Tommy and Peta (8,8,8,8)
Antonio and Allison (7,8,8,7)
Michael and Whitney (7,7,7,7)
Lea and Val (10,10,9,9)
Bethany and Mark (9,9,9,9)
Jonathan and Peta (8,9,8,8)
Janel and Artem (10,10,9,9)
With Bollywood…. You could complelty disrespect the country of India if you do a wrong hand sign .
I think Allison will fare better than peta with choreography but I also think al is getting screwed with this dance
@Megan – Al? You mean An?
Jumping with joy on Allisons song. Hey been hoping it would be Punjabi . No hand gestures with this beat just lots of energy . And good thing not much waist which is just fine with antonio. I am still dancing to it YES!:)
I hsve noticed that they have done alot of pimping for the majority if not all of val’s partners. However, in the end he has never won. As some are not drawn towards bethany janel does absolutely nothing for me. I love sadie and the fact that she seems to be there for the right reasons. I am having a hard time imagining antonio doing bollywood, you need to be very flexible and he is as stiff as a 2×4 piece of wood. I think tommy will do well with the mambo. It will be an intersting evening for sure.
(Regarding Antonio’s song) Craptastic is right! Wow… of all the Bollywood songs out there, they had to pick that one? I’m anticipating a train wreck… I HATE “hinglish” songs (when Hindi and heavily accented English are combined, a favorite of Bollywood cinema)
One thing I think, they saved all Janel’s ballroom dances until the end so they can have a reason to boot her behind before the finals. Jmo.
That bollywood song…*massages temples*
Anyway. Really looking forward to Mark and Beth’s hip-hop!!! I think that Mark will be able to let Sadie show herself more through her movements–help her loosen up a bit via being goofy. Should be fun to watch! Also, I’m really excited for how Cheryl will be with Alfonso!! 🙂
I think you mean Bethany, Aarati.
Frankly, if Bethany crying on TV last week didn’t get people to see how she was opening up, I seriously doubt that Hip Hop with a *new* partner is going to work. But, then again, I don’t see a problem with Bethany.
Whoops, you’re right PH! Yeah last week was a really great improvement, but I hope to see her less guarded this week too:)
Oh gosh, that Bollywood song is pretty awful lol. I’m (half) East Indian so I grew up listening to a lot of Bollywood music so I have pretty good judgement (IMO) what sounds good but this is just, no.
Something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJztXj2GPfk would have been a lot better with more of a beat than anything else.
That Bollywood song is catchy, but wow is it fast! That’s not going to be an easy dance.
Not really caring for any of the songs really. Hoping that Alfonso’s isn’t a weird one.
I usually skip Janel’s dances.
I love both Derek and Val, but am definitely not connecting with either of their partners this season. Just not thrilled with any of the women, I guess. Except for Betsey…she had such spirit and spunk! I think Sadie is darling, and a very good dancer…I just can’t get past the Duck Dynasty thing.
I’m most looking forward to Tommy, Alfonso and Jonathan’s dances this week. I hope Jonathan does better with Peta…I love Allison, but I don’t think she’s done him any favors.
Thanks to you all for your hard work here!
@SherryJ At the beginning of the season, I agreed with you about the Duck Dynasty thing because I judged Sadie on that show before I actually knew who she really was and now she is one of my favorites! I just think, even though one may have a more conservative background than me, it doesn’t take away from my opinion of her on the show because she is a great dancer and I love her spunkiness and spirit (like you said) :). Besides, who knows if Sadie actually has the same beliefs on certain “liberal” beliefs then her grandpa does.
I think hip hop will suit Bethany really well and this will probably be that dance where she wow’s the audience who couldn’t connect with her, so to speak. I was able to really easily and there are a bunch of pics out of her and Mark being silly outside of rehearsals from the other day, so it looks like she’s having lots of fun with the switch up which will most likely equate to a fun dance. 🙂
@Jessica: As a matter of fact, that song has been used on DWTS, as Shawn Johnson and Derek’s Bhangra in Season 15. I agree that it would have been a much better choice though 🙂
Honestly, I don’t even like Janel, or have a favorite, but with how much you guys berate her, it makes me vote for her more and like Derek less. SMH.
@Penny haha I didn’t even realize that! but I think something similar to that song that is more upbeat (similiar to what Shawn and Derrick did) would be so much better for a bollywood dance than the song they are doing this week! I even liked Peta and Giles’ song better tbh.
Well, that’s just devastating, JJ. :::rolls eyes::: You’re not a very good troll. Try harder. 😀
By the way, stop talking about how other people post, or you won’t post here anymore. Keep it on topic.
Hopefully Janel’s burlesque will be tasteful. I’ve actually been enjoying her. I can’t wait for Bethany & Mark’s hip hop routine. I think Michael & Witney’s disco will be entertaining. I think that Antonio & Alison could be in trouble but it will probably be better than Giles & Peta.
Janel’s Burlesque tasteful? Have you seen her instagram lately? 🙂
No doubt Janel and Artem will be fun. There is just a convenient hate-on for Janel because younger contestants are limited in their presentation of sexy.Also nobody at PURE had a problem when Nicole Scherzinger did 20 seconds of sexy Pussy Cat Dolls burlesque with a chair for her Cha Cha and then to end it off Derek put her over his knee and gave her a naughty spank on the ass .That was sexy fun, Len would have liked to have seen Cha Cha but this didn’t hurt her she wanted to show sexy for her fans. Janel plays a bad girl on her show and has been given a bluesy burlesque song for her dance assignment. Seems to me it will be fun and a bit naughty also giving her fans a bit of fun. If Lewis Hamilton was alright with Nicole getting spanked by another man, Peyson Lewis is really enjoying his gf on this show posting all kinds of support including his own sexy picture from the Bazz tribute he’s in with Janet.
If you’re making a comparison between Nicole and Janel, you clearly have no idea what you’re talking about. For one thing, Nicole actually was challenged on a regular basis, and not pimped with dances right in her wheelhouse. She also didn’t spend all her time rubbing up on every pro that came with in three feet.
As for not liking Janel because the younger contestants are limited in this presentation of sexy? That doesn’t even make any sense.
But it sure is nice that some Val/Janel fanpage is sending all the troops over here. Won’t do you a damn bit of good, but we sure appreciate all the hits. 😀
It’s not that you defend, Jessica, it’s how you do it and the words you use. If you can’t state your opinion in a way to not talk about how other people posting on this site, then you’re going to get deleted. Especially when, like w9121919whatever, you’ve never posted here before, you just come in talking about “pure” and “hate” and so on. That is TROLLING.
This is something that Val and Maks fans seem to have a real problem with – they can never just state their opinions, they have to whine about everyone being mean to Janel, talk about how we talk on the site, point fingers at other people….and so on.
When you can learn to NOT do that, then maybe you’ll be happier.
@PH- Lol I actually haven’t. I’m afraid to look now though. 😉
Okay I looked since I was curious to what you were hinting at. It looks kind of creepy. I dunno if that’s the right word but it’s the first that popped into my head.
Just to be clear, Pure readers have no problem with a man not the contestant’s husband slapping the contestant’s ass in a Cha Cha routine. My sense is Derek would not be able to do that with Sadie or Bethany but he had no trouble doing it with a woman who is known for her Burlesque style dancing in the Pussy Cat dolls. The point is we have a woman who is of age and musical theatre background like Nicole who can do cheeky naughty dancing, as Nicole did. The point isn’t if she is better or worse than Nicole (although seems to me Nicole in week 3 and 4 didn’t do so hot in her season but got better as the season wore on), but regardless these woman can do sexy because they were over 21closer in age to their dance partners so it didn’t seem pervy. Also I am not aware of fan pages for contestants I just comment on blogs like this one
@ W9129 #77
“There is just a convenient hate-on for Janel because younger contestants are limited in their presentation of sexy.”
Regarding the first part of your statement, all I can say is you never get a second chance to make a first impression. The first meet, rehearsals, and first week backstage footage of Janel’s constant touching and kissing of Val (who went along with it) showmance bs is what made people not like her/them. And for the extremist Val and/or Janel fans who say they weren’t faking a romance, look at how the bs stopped after the first week backlash. All of a sudden they acted like normal people, she no longer was saying ‘Love you’ and puckering up a million times for a kiss. That’s no coincidence, imo. Not to mention Janel having a boyfriend doesn’t speak well of her character. They caught on they looked like a couple of idiots. Of course, your nature is your nature and Janel has jumped right back in it with touching/groping Artem. Sad, attention-seeking girl.
As far as younger contestants being limited in their presentation of sexy, I would agree if you were talking about a 16 or 17-year-old girl. But Janel is 26 and doesn’t come even close to that category, imo.
So I watched the interview with Janel & saw her instagram pics. I will have to change the channel when Janel & Artem dance their Burlesque dance. I have an eight year old girl that loves watching dwts but this is one dance I do not want her to see. Sounds like it will be racey and not family friendly. Glad the rest of the dances should be fun to watch 🙂
For me, jrgoldengirl, it isn’t Val. What Janel has shown this week is that it is her pimping herself regardless of her partner. She has acted just as inappropriate with Artem as she has with Val. If she thinks this will get her votes she is wrong. There is no other contestant, or pro, acting like this, male or female. Together with the obvious producer pimping of her, it makes her one of the most unlikeable contestants ever imo. She has enough talent to play this straight but it is her choice not to.
The only thing I’m excited about Janel and Artem’s dance is that Sharna is dancing in it.
I just checked Janel’s instagram for the first time ever and she really wants those votes this week doesn’t she. Subtle as a sledgehammer. I was hoping that her burlesque routine would be not too much but now I get the feeling that it’s going to be one of those cases where the judges will love and viewers will be saying “too much”.
What I dont understand is Why Janel has to be acting like this for ‘attention seeking’ or vote getting reasons. Do you guys know Janel from elsewhere? Do you know her personality? Does she act differently? Because from what I’ve seen she acts the exact same way with everyone..Val, Artem, didnt Courtney even mention she was very chummy with Henry (and that was off camera and surely not for votes). Maybe, just maybe, she’s a very affectionate ‘touchy feely’ person naturally.
Whatever jrgoldengirl, don’t tell our posters how to post. That is not your job. They have a right to an opinion and if they don’t like Janel and want to voice that, they can. If you don’t like it, you know where the door is.
#88 Vin, with the show trying so hard to get the younger viewers I wonder why they put a very racey routine on the show. Sadie & Bethany have very young followers & in Sadie’s case very conservative. I can see them not loving this dance. I can see the judges loving it though and giving her a perfect score but I am not so sure the general audience will be voting for it.
Sidenote, I watched all the dances from SCD and someone had a samba to “Under the Sea” and it was very similar to Candace and Mark’s if anyone is interested in checking that out.
@Carolyn: I agree. The jusges will probably love it and the general puvlic will be like “Woah, way too much”. Don’t get me wrong, I understand that Janel isn’t a teenager and is over the age of 21 but a lot of people probably don’t know that.
Yes you did. You told us to “leave her alone”. Also, judging type comments for this forum and our posters is a no no too. If you find yourself blocked or your comments deleted, you’ll know why.
If Janel had Derek, I doubt he would have engaged in the social media shenanigans. I don’t want to get into a big thing about Janel but her behaviour has actually been criticised by a lot of Val’s fans so it really isn’t a Val thing totally. She has rubbed a lot of fans iof the show, and of him, the wrong way. We can’t all be wrong on this.
What jrgoldengirl is doing is talking about other posters on this site – also not allowed. Buh Bye. If we’re so horrible you can go elsewhere. Please do.
If you want to talk positively about Janel, feel free. But don’t act like you’re all superior and snotty when we don’t agree.
Sorry had to correct the two typos I did. “judges” and “public”.
Janelle was more than touchy feely with Henry – and technically it was in the red room so it could have been on camera. If I didn’t know better, I would have thought he was her boyfriend.
Maybe she is just like that, Chelle. But when she’s doing it on camera so much, it just comes off as fake.
If Janel’s burlesque isn’t tasteful, it’s not 100% her fault. She has a professional teaching her and creating the dance that is also responsible. Her fault, if anything, (aside from if/when she misses steps) could be her -as CAI says- ‘good sex face.’ That’s where I feel she needs to be careful because that could take it over the top.
Is the Raise the Paddle continuing this week/remainder of the series? If so, I hope they work out the kinks so people are able to vote.
I apologize for saying “leave her alone”. I will be more careful about my comments in the future. I didn’t mean it to be rude.
Unfortunately, Derek doesn’t really engage in social media. I would even go so far as to say he’s almost anti-social media. We’ve seen more of Bethany rehearsing this week because she’s with Mark. We’ve seen relatively nothing of Sadie – but we have seen that Derek is starting DerekDynasty and shooting lots of guns. 🙂 Sometimes, that boy is just weird. If he were dancing with Janel we wouldn’t be seeing nearly so much of her. If you look at Derek’s history, it’s quite clear – start hanging out with him, disappear from instagram. It’s annoying as HELL.
jrgoldengirl – That and all the talking about “them” and “they” – meaning us, everyone posting here and picking on poor Janel. Cut that out and fast.
I just love how Derek conforms to all of his partners (it’s that Fox totem thing again). And with Sadie, he’s returning to his “country boy at heart” roots. I love it.
Thats my thing, if she acts the exact same way off camera, and thats quite possibly her natural demeanor, of course she’s gonna act the same way on camera….If she were to act differently, now that would be fake.
I approved your comment just to show people that you are still making false comparisons, W9129. For one thing, Nicole wasn’t married (but they DID actually show her bf in the audience every week). For another, it was one move in a dance and it fit that dance. It was not a history of onscreen behavior NOT PART of a dance with every male pro that comes within a few feet. And Nicole didn’t do “cheeky naughty” dancing every other week – she also pulled out AMAZING dances such that THAT was what people talked about and remembered about her – Janel, not so much. Janel is certainly an adult – but can she make it on the show without the “Naughty” like Nicole did? Can she pull off a Pretty Woman Tango, a 50’s Paso – hell, even the Prince Cha Cha that you keep referring to was a technically difficult dance. How about a Michael Buble foxtrot??
And Vin, I meant to join you with my predictions for tomorrow night:
Alfonso and Cheryl (10,10,10,10)
Sadie and Derek (10,10,10,10)
Tommy and Emma (8,8,8,8)
Antonio and Allison (8,8,8,7)
Michael and Whitney (7,7,7,7)
Lea and Val (10,10,9,9)
Bethany and Mark (10,10,10,10)
Jonathan and Peta (9,9,9,9)
Janel and Artem (10,9,9,9)
Well, chelle, you can’t stop people from not liking her. Personally, I get the stealth mean girl vibe from time to time from her. Anyway, being all touchy feely lovey dovey over the male pros so quickly after a showmance won the show it going to rub people the wrong way and make people believe that she’s showmancing for votes. You can’t prevent that, and you are unlikely to change anyone’s mind. She and Val started up with it VERY quickly – day 1 – and it’s unrealistic to expect people to not make the connection.
your right and i have no problem with people not liking janel. If you dont like her personality and the fact that she is very cheeky, flirtatious, and affectionate, thats fine not everyone is going to like everyone. But just like the people throwing around their accusations that is all fake, attention seeking, and just for votes, I wanted to provide a differing opinion that to me thats not the case at all, and seems to be just who she is.
Ah the infamous “touchy-feely” debate. Not that I have much anything new to contribute but wanted to throw my hat in the ring anyway.
Since I’ve watched this show from the beginning I’ve long since accepted that the couples are going to be touchy with one another, it’s just going to happen. Pro dancers, IMO, are that way by nature as that is what they’ve been surrounded by throughout their careers. It’s really all about how far the couple takes it and if it comes across like it’s for votes and if I feel like I being played to be a fool.
Examples: Karina and Crobin, touchy with one another but also very platonic and no hints of implying something otherwise and he was very open about his girlfriend. Kelly and Val, the complete opposite, overly touchy with one another, vague about their relationship, never mentioned her boyfriend.
As many have said Janel and Val pretty much played that role from the start. I think the fact they changed their behavior to a certain degree AFTER they got the hate further proves it was their plan from the beginning. Val at the end of last season said how much he wanted to win after his brother did and said he was going to make this season about his chemistry with his partner and their relationship. Seeing Janel with Artem and what was said about her and Henry does show me she is naturally that way as she is a theater kid at heart and I think that goes along with it. If that’s her that’s fine, but again, it’s trying to play me for a fool. During an interview when someone asks you what’s going on with you a Val, you make such a cute couple…don’t give me vague bullshit about how Val couldn’t handle you and never give a straight answer. You are dance partners and friends, you are in a serious relationship, end of story.
Janel (and Kelly) are grown women, their relationship with their boyfriends is their understanding of it and that’s their business. All I can do is not vote for them if I’m not a fan of their storyline/arc on the show. And I never vote for those couples as it’s never genuine to me. As many have said those couples rarely win and sometimes don’t even make it to the finals.
You mention a couple big parts of it that Janel’s fans leave out DLT – that they refuse to just say “NO, we are NOT dating” when asked, and that they stopped being so obvious after they got hate. I had forgotten about what Val had said – dude need to learn some subtlety.
This is what it’s really about. Couples on this show are touchy feely all the time, yet have no trouble answering the “are you dating” question.
I remember Derek & Maria’s season. They had major chemistry and the show even tried to hide she had a boyfriend (pushing him to the second row) Maria & Derek then used her show to tell the world she was in love with Keven not Derek. So it can be done if the couples don’t want to play the showmance card.
Janel’s accesshollywood interview sounded pretty definitive to me
If that’s case, chelle, why doesn’t she respond “I have a boyfriend” every time she’s asked?? People would stop asking, after the first one or two times. Instead she seems to play it up.
As Carolyn said, it can be done. Maria straight up said that she talked about her boyfriend on camera all the time but they never showed it, and the show was trying to push the showmance card. Derek and Maria screwed them over by making a big joke out of it AND bringing both Derek and her boyfriend Keven on Extra and making it crystal clear that she and Derek are good friends but nothing more.
Chelle – I think the thing I find interesting about Janel’s situation is she isn’t like Kelly who was fairly private about her relationship with her boyfriend. Before she was cast in DWTS Janel and her boyfriend would post pictures all the time together, she would bring him to every event, would tweet about him a lot. I think since the season has started she’s posted 1 picture with him and that was the same night the “kiss” between Val and Janel aired when they received a lot of hate. Maybe I’m reading WAY too much into it and being fairly cynical and not giving Janel the benefit of the doubt but again, I feel like someone is trying to pull the wool over my eyes and I don’t like that.
I completely understand your viewpoint though and it really does come down to a matter of differing opinions and the situation is very subjective. I’ve seen many people on twitter saying Janel isn’t obligated to mention her boyfriend in every interview and she and Val aren’t doing anything wrong and it’s the shows fault for pushing a showmance on them, I see it differently.
Okay, that’s enough of me already! I’ll shut my mouth now. I’m excited about the show tomorrow!
Oh Tommy does it again. He never runs of songs to emphasize his campaign.Now this is a new one to me where did he unearth this….I respect his tenacity altho i am do nt support the cause
What makes you so sure that Tommy picked the song, Rana?? Rarely does the celebrity pick the song to dance to anymore.
All I want to say about Janel is that I think it’s interesting that while I watch Pretty Little Liars, I didn’t know much about Janel and Brant Daugherty as people before their respective seasons of DWTS. I fell in love with Brant in S17, he was enthusiastic and really wanted to learn and be there and was fun to watch. Janel, on the other hand, I am so turned off by. I definitely preferred her when I knew less about her which says a lot. While the dancing is of course a primary motivator for doing the show, a lot of the ‘stars’ also use it as a platform to reach a new audience and you just have to wonder what Janel is hoping to accomplish by acting like this. It doesn’t seem that anyone is responding positively to her behavior except her current fans and some of Val’s? I don’t know, just a thought.
Also, about song choice — yeah I was gonna say it seems that the celeb never has input in song choice besides during the obvious personal theme weeks (memorable year, my jam) and the freestyles, is that right?
We can always count on Cheryl to give us her dance order 🙂 Thank you for the updates.
I think Jonathan and Peta are going to do so much better than he has with Allison. Just based on videos, pictures and tweets from their social media accounts I like their partnership better than his with Allison. I love Allison but I feel she is in over her head being a pro first season and not knowing much about ballroom dance. You could see in the mean girls samba not only was Jonathan’s technique bad but so was Allison’s. I think this will be Jonathan’s break out week showing the judges how much he can do so people can see that Allison is hurting him in this competition instead of where it looks like Peta is helping him tremendously
@Princess Heidi . I assumed Tommy may have had a say in the songs but dont know,or maybe supplied a wish list to the show.Some pros in older seasons mentioned they supplied wish lists. But the songs r probably the show s choice. But it goes well with Tommy the choices. He does not mind being a goodwill embassador for the legalization of cannabis. He is much more than an entertainer and performer. His intelligence and eloquency always comes thru in interviews. Hence why i thought he may have had a song wish list. He is a man on a mission. I admire him although I usually dont share his views
I always loved when Derek would affectionately mimic Kellie’s southern accent. I hope he does it with Sadie.
It used to be the pros and celebs provided a song list before the season started, but it’s now rare that they pick what they’re dancing to.
I just have to say…….
I’m so excited for the songs “Car Wash” and “Rock this Town” by Stray Cats!!!!
So i finally listened to the song Antonio has in full. Yeah….it’s fast and fun but wasted on him
I’m excited about Alfonso’s flamenco, the flamenco footwork is a form of tap, if he nails the arms and the attitude of the style it has the potential to be an amazing performance, and with Cheryl as partner! I hope he does good. Also looking forward to Sadie and to see if Jonathan improves.
Usually skip Janel, tbh I dont really care about her packages and dances anymore, she hasnt been challenged as much as others.
@Quest This is a blog. We are here to discuss. It isn’t “sad” that we are having a discussion about Janel. It also isn’t hate. If you read more carefully, you’ll see that no oneis hating on Janel. No one has said “I hate Janel” or “Janel sucks and should break her foot so she doesn’t dance”. Some, if not most, people are just tired of the super pimping of Janel and also some seem to not like her attitude. That is not “hate”.
Anywho … Gonna do some score predicting of my own. Probably gonna be way off though… (CarrieAnn, Jessie J, Julianne, Bruno):
Sadie & Derek : 38 (9,10,9,10)
Lea & Val : 36 (9,9,9,9)
Antonio & Allison : 29 (7,8,7,7)
Alfonso & Cheryl : 37 (9,10,9,9)
Michael & Witney : 28 (7,7,7,7)
Bethany & Mark : 37 (9,10,9,9)
Janel & Artem : 39 (9,10,10,10)
Tommy & Emma : 31 (8,8,8,7)
Jonathan & Peta : 32 (8,8,8,8)
Quest, if you can’t resist whining about what other people are posting, just read the spoilers and leave. Not our job to make everything sunshine & rainbows about everyone – but judging from your reaction, you’re probably not mature enough to understand that a blog is meant for varying opinions. So just be quiet, then.
So I gather from reading here that this Jessie person who is judging is a singer?? I was wondering who the heck she is and why she was sitting at the judges table. I would rather see a former champion like JR Martinez back judging.
Today a Val/Janel fan called me foolish because I won’t let my 8 year old daughter watch the racey (sexual) dance. Haha, I call myself a responsible parent.
A val/Janel fan called you foolish?? Pot, this is kettle. You’re black. 😀
That would be awesome, MelissaC! 🙂
@MelissaC I would love for JR to guest judge! Loved him back on season 13.
I would also love Jennifer Grey to guest judge. I don’t even care if she would judge her former partner, she was a good guest judge on Strictly a few seasons ago and she’d be great here!
On Jessie J’s defense though, she did go to performing arts school.. so that kinda counts for something..? Better than Redfoo! 😛
Grrrr I hate not knowing the dance order. Makes it easier for me to know when to tune out hahaha. I’m going to assume Janel goes last or close to last if only to put her on as late as possible because of the potential “raciness” of the number. Other than that I have no idea. Wonder if Sadie will go first? I don’t think she’s performed in the first hour yet. Just guessing around because I’m bored…
I guess I’ll find out tonight who this Jessie J person is. Male or female? I don’t have a clue and honestly, I really don’t care. Too much focus this season on the judges and not enough on the couples.
I really don’t get the logic behind some of these guest judge choices.
@Sandy- She is a singer who is actually pretty huge. She has an incredible voice. I don’t personally love guest judges either as they take away more time from dancing, but if they’re going to do it, she’s a great choice. She went to a performing arts school and actually knows a thing or two about dancing.
@DLT Dance order seems to be an intriguing thing this season.. Cheryl’s the only one who posts it nowadays though, lol. Hopefully others join in and post theirs so I’ll know when to look forward to my fav(s).
I am 19 years old and I don’t connect with none of the younger people they are boring to me…the only person who I vote for every week is alfonso I want him to win.
Jessie J (who’s female) is one of the singers in “Bang Bang,” from Janel’s jive.
And age issues can make the risqué far worse, but there was quite a bit of uproar over James and Peta’s “network-friendly” samba, and both of them were in their 20s.
Interesting article in The Daily Mail today about a rather sexy dance on SCD this week. Apparently it completely turned off the voters and they were almost eliminated. The judges liked it but no one voted. Looking at the pro’s costume on line, it seemed like a regular outfit on DWTS tbh but it goes to show that going sexy can backfire on the show. I am not sure if this is overly prudish or just not what the viewers want on a family entertainment show. The pro dances and bumpers are so sexy already that it hard to imagine anything more over the top than that and I’m starting to find the weekly bump and grind tedious and unimaginative.
A few spoilers about how rehearsals are going have been posted in last week’s private members area 😉
Did anyone catch Alfonso and Witney today on “The Real”? I just missed it. They were wrapping up the segment when I tuned in.
After last season’s writhing on the floor by Maksyl and Peta’s costumes, I don’t think Janel’s burlesque routine will be shocking. I’m more curious to see what Artem came up with since he’s lauded as being such a great choreographer lately. I have yet to see it.
I just rewatched Bethany and Derek’s Rumba and I have to shake my head at those After Buzz people who didn’t connect with her at all. If they didn’t connect with that, then they went into last week with that mindset in my opinion. I Look forward to seeing what she and Mark do tonight and I can’t wait to see Alfonso and Cheryl.
I can totally see a Charleston to Crazy Stupid Love, the end of the chorus is essentially a brass instrumental and the rest of the song has a very simple clapping beat. I see where you are coming from saying it’s current but it’s no different to doing a Jive to Shake it Off or Bang Bang. I’m very much looking forward to the routine
And @Rose1 whether you connect with someone or something, whether it be dancers or choreography or music is completely down to the individual. It’s a bit funny to be belittling their opinion/implying bias in that case.
And @Judy, the dance that was “sexy” on SCD this week was anything but. The celeb come off as completely lifeless and cold both in the dance and interview after.
Like he’s a very attractive man (and his partner an attractive woman), but yeah it wasn’t sensual, for me anyway, and the lack of votes probably stemed from that
@judy: Simon’s rumba was not as bad as they make it sound. I have seen steemier rumbas from other couples on both Scd and dwts but scd had a double whammy thisbweek with donny get trashed too so whatever is going on with Simon is the least of their worries.
Sidebote I hope Michael opens the show…just because that’s the dance i want to see the most for some reason.
@Vin I actually would love for Michael to CLOSE the show, actually. It’d be awesome to end with a fun, feel good dance like his.
I’m thinking either Bethany or Jonathan are going to go first tonight (hopefully Jonathan’s the kne who goes first) . Just a random guess 😛
@Lewis, I don’t think the AB are biased, but I do believe they are comparing Bethany to Derek’s past partners, which is where the mindset comes in. They even brought up Amy’s name in comparison.
They straight up said they were comparing Bethany to Amy – no bones about it. And that is a bias.
Having watched the Afterbuzz episode, I actually agree with what Corky said in terms of seeming to have a wall up, I like her as a dancer and I want to go fair but I think the story was far more affecting than her performance of it.
And beyond the performance, I actually agree with them saying the actual technique wasn’t great, and maybe that also played a part in them/me not feeling it, because watching the footwork pulled me out of it.
Does anybody know who the dancers were who danced with the Blue Hair from the Broadway show Mama’s Family with Val and Lea on the October 13th DWTS Episode?
