Dancing with the Stars Season 12 -- Winner!!

Whoot!!  Whoot!!

. . . . . . . . and the winner is . . . . . . . . . .  .

Hines Ward!!!



What a trooper Kym Johnson was through it all -- taking Hines to the winning night even after taking a bad fall in practice!!!



No!!  I didn't get the night off work!!  Didn't even get to see the final dances -- hopefully I'll get to see that in the next couple of days -- but did make it in to see the final 5 minutes of the show and see Hines win!!

I can hardly wait now till next season!!

Dancing With the Stars!!

I'm just a little bummed that for the final night of dancing with the stars I have to work!!

And it's not my turn to be on-call!!

So I am going to go out on a limb here and see if I am right -- who is eliminated next? . . .

Kirstie and Maks

Sorry guys!!   I love Maks too!  But not sure that they had enough umph!! to pull through tonight!!  Their freestyle, although stupendous, just wasn't catchy enough for those judges, and her outfits didn't o her justice in any way!!

Who will win between Chelsea and Hines? . . .

Hines and Kym

In my humble opinion (which I have learned doesn't account for much)  I think Hines and Kym did the best dancing by far all season long!! The judges picked a good choice for them in the 'Quick Step' and totally loved their freestyle!!

So let's see who wins at the final dancing of the season with Dancing With The Stars tomorrow!!!

I so wish I ccould be home watching this tomorrow --- maybe things will ne slowenough at work to catch the final call!!!

DWTS - this weeks elimination!!

Ok so we are down to 4 stars and one has to go!!!

Who was it this week!!

I must say Hines was sooooooooo absolutely awesone!! and a perfect score on both his dances this week!!  Not sure that Chelsea deserved the bonus 15 points, I thought that Hines Cha Cha was so much better!

But Both Hines and Chelsea are OK to move on another week!!!

by by Ralph!!

This weeks elimination came down to Kirstie or Ralph -- And Ralph it was!! Thought that he was going to go last week, but he made it one week further even with a knee injury!!

Next week the stars will be dancing their freestyle! Hmmmm. . . wonder what Hines, Chelsea and Kirstie will bedoing for that!! 

I can hardly wait!!

Mondays Dancing with the Stars!!

Oh my goodness!!  They were all so good.  Loved the guest judge too!!

Although I think the judges were right in that romeo didn't do as well this week as he has in the past few weeks!!  Hmmm. . . just might be the end of Romeo!!  Kinda saw that old swagger in his strutting last night.  And the follow-through between moves did lack smoothness!!



Found it kind of funny that the two oldest stars ended up dancing dances that were faster than most of the others!!  The Jive for Kirstie and the Quick Step for Ralph!!  Whats with that?  Although I must say each of them did really well in spite of it all!!  Isn't Kirstie looking a bit slimmer out there?  Although that pink and purple tutu thing wasn't the greatest of choices for a full-figured woman!!

Kendra, again, did surprisingly well!  I wasn't sure that she would be able to pull it off for another week -- must be she is finally getting some confidence in herself and her dancing!! 

Chelsea is another one that I have to say is doing well, I didn't want her too, but she is!!  I feel that her style is little bit more risky than the others, but she seems to feel that because she is young she should be able to pull it off.  Although I did like her dance, I was still looking for moves from the actual dance, they had added so much creative style that it was hard to tell what dance they were dancing!!  Hmmm. . . actually I can't remember ewhat they were suppose to be dancing!!

Now as for Hines!!  Oh my what can I say, but he did it again!!!  What style!  What finesse!!  Yes I must say he is at the top of my list  - - - again!!!

I don't want to see any of them go, but I guess tonight one will be booted!!!  Unfortunately, it looks like it will be a toss up between Romeo or Kirstie!!  Guess we will just have to watch to find out!!

DWTS's Week #5

I must say that they all did wonderful tonight!!

But. . .

My top two favorites this week are. . .

Chris Jericho - I thought that he gave a very good performance, and am nicely surprised at how well he is doing in this competition!!  Strong frame and some good moves.

Tried to find a pictures of them dancing this evening, but I guess it was too soon.  Found plenty from last week though.




Second favorite this week was. . .

Romeo!!  Oh what a performance he gave.  He is coming right along in learning to lose that 'Hip Hop' swagger and pick up some real classy dance moves!!  Almost reminded me of a very young Sammy Davis Jr. 







Coming in close for 3rd and 4th were Hines Ward and Kirstie Alley.  What a surprise --- no mishaps and Maks is so fine!!  He can rip his shirt off for me anytime!!



Nowo all this is just in my humnble opinion you know!!  It is sucha hard choice!!

So who will continue on and who will be eliminated tomorrow night?!!

My two favorites from last weeks DWTS's

So I went to ABC.com and watched last weeks performances and elimination round.  I must say they all did a wonderful job, such improvement in such a short time.  I think we tend to forget that they all are amatuers and not professionals, but expect a professional dancers performance from them.  Some people are natural dancers and others just can't dance!!

Can't believe that Kirstie's shoe came off, but what the . . .

From the Dances for last week my two favorites were . . . drum roll please!!

Hines Ward and Chris Jericho with Ralph Machio and Romeo close behind.  But, I feel, that Hines and Chris gave very strong performances last week.  Did you see their strong leading frames?!!  And I just love Hines's smile!!  We'll see what happens this week!!








Dancing with the Stars - Mondays

Last night was the first Dancing with the Stars for this season!! 

Was pleasantly surprised at how well most of them did.  Will be an experience to see who actually improves and who doesn't. 

Going to keep my predictions to myself for the moment.
