Now onto some media. Let’s see what the couples had to say about the night. First check out the ABC7 footage below with George Pennacchio. Note at the end, George says it’s “Most Memorable Year Week” next.
Also, don’t miss some beautiful photos at ABC7, the Daily Mail, and ET Online.
For some new interviews from E News, see this link. As always I would embed them, but, they won’t stop playing afterwards making it hard to watch the other videos posted.
The new Afterbuzz TV interviews with JC Rubio are starting to come out. Heidi will be making a new “Who’s Dancing What” post shortly for the new dances next week. So far, it’s revealed
Nastia & Derek have an Argentine Tango.
We’ll add more Afterbuzz TV interviews when they come out. Keep checking back…
And below is some GMA coverage (the 2nd video will work Internationally)…
Here is PoPTVDotCom with some interviews after the show….
ETA: Access Hollywood and Extra have some new interviews posted now. Chris and Witney mention that they have a Rumba next week.
Vogue, Thanks for the great roundup and for getting it here so quickly. You take such good care of us!!!
Always love the post-show interviews, and I’m grateful you don’t embed the E! ones. It is annoying when they start up automatically while you’re trying to watch another vid.
By the way, have I overlooked George’s Red Carpet interviews or does he no longer do them?
@Cidra, he does them but for some reason they won’t allow him to post them this season. So weird.
Thanks so much, Cidra!!! And you are right. Except for the ABC7 round up coverage, we aren’t getting individual interviews from George like before. I guess it’s too much for the station to do right now, but, he’s hoping they will post them more towards the end of the season. I miss them a lot too.
Tina, Thanks for the info. That is so bizarre.
Vogue, I hope you’re right that they’ll end up online at some point.
I sure miss George’s interviews! Is there a way to convey that to his station?
Nice to Derek and Nastia’s interviewed before they had to leave.
finally an interveiw with Nastia and Derek. they’re actually very sweet, love like he holds her the whole time.
Hi..Vogue…Thankyou so much for these interviews.
So nice to see Nastia & Derek before they left for NYC. They are such a darling, golden-haired couple. Derek is bringing her out of her gymnastic mold of serious non-expressive demeanor. They have the A.T. next week, and I’ve been waiting for this from this couple. It will be awesome!
I am just enjoying all the couples and the dancing.
Noah is so strong, and Sharna is so amazing. Even watching an interview, eyes water not from sympathy but the pride and respect for our American soldier.
Willow is so cute and she really is trying to play the role the dances require to look good. She is such a breath of fresh air with her attitude. She has that young girl way, but also shows maturity with it. She’s beautiful and Mark is doing such a good job like always with a young contender.
Robert & Kym are so funny, and seem to be having such a good time on their journey of dancing.
Chris & Witney looked good this week, and Chris sure is giving it his all.
Suzanne & Tony are fun to watch and she hasn’t changed a bit since 3’s company. Can’t believe the energy she has and how good she dances for her age.
Riker & Allison are good matched pair. Loved their dance. I like the new look for Riker. I think he has some of his cousins natural talent.
Michael did ok, but I think could have been better, but the Salsa wasn’t the best style for him. Rumer & Val Salsa was different, with a mix of Disco/Tango. I didn’t know the couples could do a fusion type dance to the Salsa.
Patti is a great entertainer and that side of her sure comes out on the dance floor; but I had concerns with her not being able to get into all the techniques of the dances and the dances are going to be judged stricter at this time of the season on and I just don’t think she will be able to perform them fully. And, Artem shouldn’t be told how to choreograph the dances. Even if she has a good fan base and stays on, the judges will be harsher. I just wouldn’t like to see her hurt her knee more. When it comes to performing she has always been an Icon on the stage singing and moving with her back up ladies.
And, lastly….I have to give Charlette a lot of credit for bowing out so gracefully, even with the un-called-for remark made to her. She didn’t deserve that, and it had nothing to do with her dancing. She was being judged on her brain smarts. She showed a lot of class.
I did it again!!! left out the word “not” in my last sentence.
“She was not being judged on her brain smarts.”
