DWTS Season 20 Watchout: Sharon Osbourne??
I know this is an article for “Strictly Come Dancing” in the UK, but, I keep wondering if she’d do Dancing With The Stars in the US being both of her kids did….and especially with Louis Van Amstel possibly in the mix? Anyway, in the take below, Sharon Osbourne mentions how she’d love to dance on “Strictly Come Dancing”, but, doesn’t think she could do it. Read on for more from The Irish Examiner….
“Would I do Strictly in the UK? I would love to, I would really, really love to, because it is honestly my favourite programme to watch, it’s so much fun,” she said.
But she added: “But I’m too lazy and I don’t like to sweat, so I don’t think I could do it.”
Sharon, who appears in the new MoneySuperMarket car insurance ad, said she fancies freestyling her own dance moves if she was to appear on Strictly.
“Well, if I did do Strictly and I was brave enough and wasn’t so lazy, I wouldn’t like to do the foxtrot,” she continued.
“You hold your head a funny way and it’s all funny head movements – kind of like robotic. I would definitely be one of those people that would freestyle and throw myself around for a few minutes – and I’d like to be thrown around by my partner!”

If she does strictly, I can probably guess the pro she would get but if she did dwts I would be even happier. If she wants to be paired with Louis….well I’d be ok with that.
I think there’s a possibility of either Sharon Osbourne or Rosanne Barr as being our mature contestant this season. And either one of them could request Louis. Being that Rosanne Barr was on The Talk in November of last year it wouldn’t seem too far off base for her to request him.
If I have to endure Louis dancing this season… I’d be okay with him being paired with either one of these ladies.
So, she told me last year that she would never, ever, ever (EVER) do DWTS. So we’ll see if she sticks to that. 😉
I agree Sandy. I wouldn’t mind if Louis was paired with either Roseanne or Sharon if they danced!
Probably not going to happen but I hope they get her and roseane barr for this season. Whoever Louis doesn’t get just give to any of the other male pros (maybe mark or artem?).
If either Sharon or Roseanne are on, I say give them to Val. He needs the challenge after having Danica and Elizabeth and Janel. Could be like when Maks had Kirstie and we saw how well Val handled comedy last season during the Switch Up with Lea.
Good idea Jordan, I think it would actually help him in the future.
I feel like either of them would decimate Val if he started to be annoying (especially Sharon lol). I’d pay big money to see that if Val is the same way he was last season. Don’t get me wrong, the guy is super talented but he tries to hard to win sometimes.
I liked Val until last season. It was just obvious either he or the producers were hoping for Maks and Meryl 2.0 (And I won’t get started on my opinion about that). I loved Val with Sherri Shepherd and I think he needs another big personality after the last few seasons of contenders.
Danica, Elizabeth, Janel AND Zendaya and Kelly. Old Val has had it pretty easy. Even Sherri took ballroom lessons AT DWM before her season.
Forgot about Zendaya and Kelly wow! He needs a challenge like Maks had with Kirstie or Mark with Bristol or even Peta with Tommy last season. And Emma needs a contender
All the pros have had serious challenges at this point EXCEPT Val. And people used to complain about Derek? Hell, they STILL complain about Derek! I saw several people say “Well, now someone else has a chance to win” when they found out he wasn’t competing this coming season. Um, how stupid are you?? He took 4th place last season, 2nd place the season before that! Yes, he’s won 5 times – but out of 14 seasons. In between times he’s had some very questionable dancers – and one that had two prosthetic legs. By contrast, Val has been on 7 seasons and has only ONE partner who didn’t have some sort of experience. One.
#12 Princess Heidi Question: is the one Val partner with no experience Elizabetta Canalis (think that’s her name, wasn’t she George Clooney’s ex?) Gone first week? Ok I’ve watched show for years. Derek has not had ringers with I will say exception of Nicole S but hey that’s just my opinion. Let’s look at his partners. Jennie Garth? No. Brooke? No? Joanna? Totally no. Shannon? No.Lil Kim? No. Jennifer Grey (danced 30 years earlier in ONE movie, cancer survivor with serious back and or neck injuries.) Ricki Lake? No? Maria Menounos (two broken feet/never took a dance lesson in her life), Shawn Johnson (yes a prior winner but a gymnast isn’t always a dancer-Ally Raisman) Kellie Pickler (cheerleader in HS doesn’t compare to Danica and others experienced partners Val had) Amber Riley? No-on record parents could only afford singing or dance lessons, we know how that went. Amy? Two artificial legs (there you go, she’s a ringer.) Bethany, a year of dance as a tween? I feel like left out someone but Derek doesn’t need ringers to win. He knows how to teach to bring out the best in each individual, to choreo to their strengths and teach them to grow as a person as a dancer and in confidence. We see the journey. We don’t see the showmances.
You’re preaching to the choir, Liz. And you left out Nicole Scherzinger – yes, she was a ringer. I don’t think being a ringer is a Yes or No thing. I think there are lots of people who have some degree of experience. But, I agree – Val is way out in front of everyone in terms of the ratio of ringers to seasons on the show.
#14 Princess Heidi Actually I did say I thought Nicole was a ringer. I know I’m preaching to the choir but I needed to rant and vent. So sick of the Val garbage and Derek always wins and gets best partners. Thx for letting me vent
Wasn’t Bruce Jenner rumored last year? It would be interesting to have him on and dance with Louis.
Why…Heck and we all know that if Derek would have had some of the others pro’s partners, they would have made it a lot farther, especially some of Vals. People need to give their Derek insecurities a big rest for crying out loud. Derek is where he is at today because he has what it takes to get where he is because that young man has “talent” over and beyond and the drive behind it.
I am happy for him, and will miss him this season; but I’m looking forward to a good 10th Anniversary and think there is going to be lots to keep viewers happy.
Let the surprises begin nest week. 🙂
Lex, according to Kristyn Burtt, Bruce Jenner was supposed to be on S18 as Sharna’s partner. Then when he dropped out last minute, Sean Avery signed on and would only dance with Karina. So it completely scrambled everything on the female pros side. Allegedly, Peta was supposed to be with Charlie, and Karina was supposed to be with James.
I don’t think he’s on their radar at the moment because of some legal troubles. Also, he hasn’t had his full change yet. Did Chaz when he was with Lacey? I forget.
As for the actual topic (LOL, sorry I rambled) I think Sharon would be a blast. But I’ve been let down by so many celebs (particularly female celebs) that I assumed would be fun, and in the context of the show took it way too seriously. That would bum me out.
I didn’t know about Bruce Jenner CM. Interesting. Many of us on the board were speculating at the time that Peta would get Charlie. I think the DWTS fates worked out correctly that season with who both Peta and Charlie wound up with.
That whole springing of James on a flustered Peta and how she well she handled it was the beginning of me growing to like and appreciate her. And of course whoever Charlie had as a partner wouldn’t have made a difference in getting him farther, although Sharna was wonderful with him. That season was all about Maks and his redemption ride to the Mirrorball.
I would hope that Bruce Jenner would wait until his transition is complete until attempting to do the show. From what I understand, transitioning involves taking a lot of hormones. I don’t think adding the stress of doing DWTS is a good thing at this time.
