Louis Van Amstel Says He’s The Only Pro Who Doesn’t Know If He’s Dancing On Dancing With The Stars
KATU in Portland interviewed Dancing pro Louis Van Amstel this morning. He dishes about what the first three weeks are like on Dancing With The Stars. He talks of how you have to be honest when teaching and his favorite partner and soul mate, Kelly Osbourne. He gets the news crew dancing while promoting LaBlast. At the end, he says he’s the only pro who doesn’t know if he’s dancing or not on Dancing With The Stars. Hmmm… More below….
To be honest I hope he’s not on it. He’s annoyed me a lot more recently with the claims he made about the show about Derek in Season 13, etc.
Soul mate? They’re dating? And personally, i hop he isn’t part of season 14 either. He doesn’t know, he’s probably not.
You don’t have to date to be soul mates. And as I understand it, he’s gay, so…
I know plenty of people who aren’t dating their soul mates 🙂 He means they’re extremely close 🙂
Yep, my best friend who passed away last summer was my soul mate. So to me… soul mate doesn’t necessarily equal mate. 🙂
I find him annoying for some reason, not sure why. Maybe because he acts full of himself and he’s not such a great dancer. He and Derek & their partners were in a pro couples dance (can’t remember which season) and while their female partners were off to the side, he and Derek did a few simultaneous moves that were supposed to mirror each other. Unfortunately for Louis, Derek blew him out of the water with his superior technique. It was kinda sad to watch.
@DW – If it’s the same one I’m thinking of, it was “Hard to Handle” in season 6, for the 100th episode special. Louis looked like he either completely blanked on some of the choreo, or just was no match for Derek. Louis is a fantastic Latin technician, I’ll give him that – but if you throw anything else in with it, like hip-hop, he’s completely lost…which is why he tends to really pale in comparison to some other pros in the pro dances, IMO.
That’s the key with Louis. He’s not versatile at all, but he is far and away the best LATIN male pro dancer on the cast. Look at the samba feature he does with Karina in the “Let me entertain you” pro dance. The speed and footwork, especially on the samba rolls, is just astonishing. I mean, mind boggling.
I love him!!!!!!
I thought Maks didn’t know, either.
I think Louis’ being a tad…self absorbed. I doubt he knows what the other pros know or don’t know.
Ahhh, right he is gay. Thanks for the clarification. I find him annoying too.
we miss Louis in our house probably because we were professional dancers and appreciate his superior technique and choreography. frankly he blows all of the pro’s out of the water for talent precision and consistency. some are cute, some are sexy but Louis is a dancer’s dancer!
