The All-Female Pro Dance – Week 1 of DWTS Season 9

My mom always said, if you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all. πŸ™‚ Sometimes I live by that and sometimes…I don’t. I’m sorry, but I found the ladies Pro Dance underwhelming. The men seemed to have more actual dance moves and less…I dunno, leg lifts or something. I can’t explain, really, why it felt meh to me. And no John, I don’t think it’s because there were no boys for me to look at. πŸ™‚ The men were just more energetic or something. Although, I do find Kym’s part dazzling – probably because of the bright smile, blond hair and very long legs.

If anyone wants to see the Foxtrot Relay or Derek/Joanna’s Salsa, they’re at PureDerekHough.

I'm a nerd and proud of it. Two degrees in geology also means I love BEER. :-) I'm also a Derek lover - proud of that too. So don't scream at those of us on this site and call us a bunch of "biased Derek-lovers" - it's just ME. :-) It may sound like I hate DWTS at times, but really, I'm just a snarky nitpicker from way back. And I'm cynical and jaded too. But I do love DWTS. :-)

All Male Pro Dance and Opening Introductions!

Found them on the web already – – posted large sizes at Pure Derek Hough. Smaller sizes are below.

Dancing with the Stars Season 9 Lists

For those of you that have just found Pure Dancing with the Stars or took a break in between seasons, I want to point out to you some of the great stuff we’ve been working on during the off season. Heidi’s been rocking the Dancing with the Stars Season 9 cast announcement and other Dancing with the Stars rumors. It’s been pretty amazing how well Heidi was at finding out all the information before anything was even announced.

On top of that a number of new bloggers have joined Pure DWTS that have created some really amazing posts about Dancing with the Stars season 9. Take a look.

ABC Interview Videos

Courtesy ofΒ  TV Grapevine.Β  These are the same videos (with bio page) Β I uploaded the other day for Macy et al, but different couples. I believe they are in the process of uploading all of them. I’ve included a few, below. The TV Grapevine site is kinda hard to figure out (for me anyway) so this link takes you to Natalie, but the others are listed on the left hand side. This LINK takes you to the list of celebs they have bios for so far – which doesn’t seem to match the video list, even though the videos are also embedded there. Make sense? Yeah, me either. πŸ™‚

ETA: I almost forgot to blow my own horn. πŸ™‚ I was correct – the male pros are doing a pro dance on Monday night, the female pros a pro dance on Tuesday night – the reverse of when they dance with their partners. This is per Louis Van Amstel.Β  Should be very interesting. πŸ˜‰

Natalie and Alec

Mark And Lacey

Ashley and Edyta

Maybe it’s just me, but Ashley and Natalie seem kinda…boring? Maybe it’s Alec and Edyta? I dunno something seems strange there. Or maybe everyone suffers in comparison to Mark Dacascos and Lacey. πŸ™‚

Seattle Times on DWTS Season 9

I point out this article inΒ The Seattle Times inΒ particular because I found what they had to say about the teams rather amusing. πŸ™‚Β Β  Here are a few excerpts:

Gather ’round, fellow “Dancing with the Stars” fans, and let us mourn: Gilles Marini is no longer on the show, and none of the new contestants are slinky Frenchmen.

Regardless, everyone’s favorite guilty-pleasure, ballroom-dancing-with-the-C-list reality show is back, to steal our Monday nights and remind us of some of the great mysteries of life: namely, sequined pants, orange spray-tans and Samantha Harris.

Β 

Aaron Carter

Who? 21-year-old pop singer, Backstreet Boy relative (brother to Nick Carter) and former reality-show participant (“House of Carters”).

Any hope? Sure; pop singers generally know how to move.

Partner: The fabulously named Karina Smirnoff, in her seventh season.

Β 

Ashley Hamilton

Who? Actor/musician, but better known for being George Hamilton’s son and Shannen Doherty’s momentary husband.

Any hope? Let’s hope he does better than his famously tan father did on the show (in Season 2).

Partner: The marvelously slinky and frequently near-naked Edyta Sliwinska.

My personal favorite – πŸ˜‰

Joanna Krupa

Who? Model, best known for one of those “I’d Rather Go Naked Than Wear Fur” PETA campaigns.

Any hope? Um, who?

Partner: Hold the phone β€” she’s dancing with the marvelous Derek Hough.

Tom, Aaron and Macy (!) Interview Clips

Wow, I feel like I hit the motherlode without a shovel (geologist humor). πŸ™‚ MovieWeb has a whole bunch of short interview clips with the aforementioned stars. Macy, in particular, was cracking me up as was Jonathan. Check them out. I would have embedded them here, but I couldn’t figure it out for the life of me.

New DWTS Rehearsal Videos from ABC (Part IV)

ABC added some more. First up, Chelsie and Louie. Um…Chelsie is a brave woman. πŸ™‚

One of this seasons Ringers – Mya and Dmitry. Comments on this youtube mention that they took *lessons* from Mya. Ooookay.

Macy and Jonathan. And that’s all I’m going to say about that. Okay – I lied. Macy is really what the show is about. Teaching someone with no clue how to dance, to dance. (psstt – Macy – butt IN).

Rehearsal Videos from ABC – Part III

I love Louie Vito. As quoted in The Examiner:

The snowboarder jokes that although he’s doing better than expected, β€œI have to understand that I am not going to be Derek Hough in just a few weeks. OK, I can never be a Derek Hough.β€œ

The article is MUCH longer than that, but as you might imagine that quote stood out to me. πŸ™‚

Michael Irvin and Anna Demidova – I think Michael and Anna are cute, but I don’t know that he can make it in this field of competitors.

Good lord, I can’t believe I love Kelly Osbourne. πŸ™‚ This girl is just a breath of fresh air. Oh, and Louis. πŸ™‚

Geez, I’ve always loved Debi Mazar (Entourage rocks!!) but I love her even more when she tells Maks that she’s going to going to spank him. And she’s giving him shit. I LOVE that. πŸ™‚

Kathy Ireland and Tony Dovolani. I just don’t know. I can’t decide.

Okay, I’m done. I’ll figure out who’s missing tomorrow. This Cast is too big. πŸ˜‰

Rehearsal Videos from ABC – Part II

These HAVE to be from the first week. Have to be.

Ashley and Edyta

Donny and Kym. Still annoying. πŸ™‚

Aaron and Karina – I can’t decide. He’s either going to be really good…or a tool. πŸ˜‰

Alec and Natalie. Totally not an Alec fan. Natalie seems like she might have potential though.

Tom and Cheryl. Chery, I love you, but Tom? Gag. How is it that he seems to make fun of gay people while dancing? Why is it that he seems to imply that any guy who dances must be gay? Nice. Only not.

Rehearsal Videos from ABC!

These are nice. πŸ™‚

Derek and Jojo – cute. Surprising, in a good way. πŸ˜‰

Mark and Melissa – hoping these vids are from early on.

Mark and Lacey – man’s got some moves!

Chuck Liddell and Anna T. – Um. Okay.
