worst line up ever

I cannot believe the names I see here for DWTS. I think this show is going downhill fast. Something really amazing better happen or I for one will not watch anymore than a few minutes here and there.

One of Them is Definitely Wrong

One of them is definitely wrong. Like the comment before me said, one of the Dancing with the Stars cast dropped out. Maybe the rest of them are right.

Kim K has more than just happy feet

Allegedly, Ray J picked up something from Kim K; if you have a weak stomach - don't look, but the message is worth it. I cannot get this pic out of my mind. Take a look:

For real dude that's kinda nasty. I don't think they want to know who you been with. I'm not judging nobody, but seriously let that stay in your diary.

Why Disney?

Why is DWTS starting to get obsessed with Disney? I loved Sabrina Bryan, but Cody Linley? Isn't he like 17, next their gonna have Selena Gomez, or Miley Cyrus! I'm all for Team Selena though.

Because they're part of the same company, and it's good cross promotion.

La Lucci!

For us AMC fans, It's gonna be a treat 2 c Susan Lucci do something else than here gr8 acting. I'm Gay & glad 2 c Lance Bass also, But wheeew, thank goodness 4 them not pairing him off with another guy! It was a stereo typical rumor going around & I think Lance would be the first 2 say NO! We gay's still act proper in an event this big & 2 stereo type it was just wrong. Cloris, I give her 3 thumbs up as a gr8 actress & dancing now @ 82. Yay! 4 Tony Braxton! I can't wait till Sept. Oh! Who's Kim Kardashian? Do i have 2 go further, I thought this was dancing with the stars! She's not even close 2 being a star! There is a long list of stars waiting 2 be on this show. She is a nobody. I was expecting Jodie Sweetin from Full house. Or Raven Simone any else but Kim! As i was reading I know she'll be voted out 1st! I think 95% of women watching the show will take care of that in voting. Ted, I can't wait 2 c u rumba! As 4 all the rest good luck & u have much competition with the above mentioned!

Susan Lucci? REALLY? YUK

Susan Lucci is 62 years old. I don't care too see her dancing either! Isn't she too busy getting another face lift?? She's a joke!

jumping the shark

You know, Ted McGinley is *FAMOUS* for making a show jump the shark.

Thirteen?

I thought there was normally twelve contestants? So either:

1. The format has changed
2. Misty May was put in there to confuse us
3. This isn't the list

it could be any of the above - we'll be put out of our misery on Monday!

DWTS Cast

I thought the show was Dancing with the Stars, not Dancing with the Sluts. I won't watch this season until Kim Kardashian is voted off, hopefully in the first week. Why don't they just cast a porn star? She may be a reality "star" but a totally talentless one. I don't think reality show cast members qualify as stars.

who cares if kim is not a

who cares if kim is not a star. she's sexy and will make the show worth watching. be real. how many of us watch it for their talent. if that's what we watched it for, than we wouldn't care who was on it. we would watch ballroom dancing on pbs.

Cloris Leachman on DWTS

Cloris Leachman is 82 years old! So much for the credibility of your report. Nobody wants to see an 82 year old do a Rhumba, and the closest she'll ever get to a quick step at her age is if she has incontinence problems!!!

I absolutely want to see an

I absolutely want to see an 82 year old dance. Sexy isn't just for the young.

Justin Timberlake Hosts SNL in Three Minutes

You wanna know how talented baby daddy Justin Timberlake is? He doesn't need a week of prep and an hour and a half to host Saturday Night Live; give him three minutes and a chair and he still does a better job as host AND musical guest than just about anyone else in recent memory (Tina Fey doesn't count and homegirl can't sing). We are a little sad we didn't get to see him do more of the Barry Gibb Talk Show though. It's not the same without Jimmy Fallon trying to keep it together...and failing.

Put Out an APB for Mariah Carey's Voice

What happened to Mariah Carey's voice? Her rendition of "Hero" on X Factor, Simon Cowell's British version of American Idol, was so bad it would've gotten her kicked off the show if she was a contestant. We actually would love to hear the Idol crew critique this train wreck. It's more than a little pitchy, dawg, it's a cryin' shame. She goes for the gusto (and sorta succeeds) at the end but fifteen octave Mariah is dead. All that remains are her hand-waving antics and inappropriately immature hoochie dresses. (Seriously, is she going to prom after the show or the Pimp and Ho Ball?)

Janice Dickinson Has Her Day in Court...Christina's Court

We bow at the altar of Janice Dickinson (afterall, she is the World's First Supermodel) so we say this with love and reverance...WHAT THE EFF ARE YOU DOING ON A DAYTIME COURT SHOW???? It appears Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency cast off and reject, Brian Kehoe (we HATE Kehoe) took his former agent to court but the only court his broke, publicity starved ass could muster was Christina's Court. Damn, dude! You couldn't even swing Judge Milian? We are SHOCKED Janice agreed to stoop to such lowly levels.

Election Day Dance Off

Forget Town Hall Meetings and Debates, maybe what we needed all along was a Presdential Dance Off. Don't forget to get out and vote today! And then do The Worm in your candidate's honor.
