Julianne’s dress may have been lower cut than the dancers’.
Betsey Johnson got robbed. Yes, she got into a fight with a coat rack mid-performance, but up until that point, her cha-cha was way, way better than whatever Lolo Jones did. No way did she deserve a lower score.
Voted for Lea, Tommy (who was surprisingly good), Randy, & Alfonso.
I thought that Lea & Artem and Alfanso & Whitney were the best performers.
I thought that Lolo & Keo and Michael & Ema were the worse.
Betsy was the most limber 70 something they’ve ever had on the show. Tommy moved really well too. Usually in past seasons people 50 and over are pretty stiff, but that seems to have changed this season.
Quite a bit of talent this season. Alfanso & Whitney surprised me. I didn’t realize he was that good. Tommy Chong had a good first week. I hope he’s back next week.
Lolo & Keo are my pick to go home. I thought Keo let her down with the choreography. He’s a champion dancer but seemed a bit lost working with a complete novice.
I’m curious to see what Tony and Betsy do if they return next week. I hope she can come back with a strong dance.
Tommy was smooth, and Randy was a surprise, that’s for sure. I don’t know if Michael was the worst, but I do think he has pretty much hit the limit of his potential.
I usually don’t like when they send one person home after only one dance (I guess they do that in the fall, and in the spring they give them two dances before someone goes). But in this case I’m okay with it as long as the person who goes home is LoLo.
I also thought Betsey was robbed. Not that she deserved a higher score than she got but she definitely deserved a higher score than LoLo because at least she did half a dance.
I liked Sadie’s dance. A bit reserved because she’s 17 and I noticed Mark kept a full foot away during the dance. He did the same thing when he was paired with Shawn Johnson.
Sadie mentioned her school didn’t allow dancing. She’s really, really starting as a beginner.
Results show spoiler
Well, thank god for that. I’m not familiar with Lolo, but she did not come across very well at all personality-wise on the show. Kind of a Debbie Downer.
I think Tony was really, really hoping he and Betsey would get the boot tonight.
Terrible. Hyper-extended legs and odd arms and hip action. Way over scored. And she did have dance lessons out side of school, She said on a blog that her dance teacher taught her to be double jointed. Her words, not mine
Hmm… he took lessons from Kym Johnson in 2007 when he went with Lance Bass to watch Joey Fatone take Rumba steps. So that 20 years is a bit of an exaggeration. Any chance to dance here and there would still keep his muscle memory pretty strong. He has a really long history of dance, he danced better than his partner Monday night. Is that fair? I don’t know.
