Dancing with the stars!

[happymom52003]

I'm not saying they should ban any certain group of celebrities (e.g. "Pop Stars"). I am saying that I do not think they should have stars who have grown up dancing and who have exceled in many styles of dance. If you read biographies about Sabrina, this is what most of them state (I know not to believe everything I read on the internet, but many sites mention how she started dancing at a young age and exceled in several dance styles). She is a natural born dancer with tons of talent....it just does not make sense to me to have someone like her on this show. And I think there are people out there who agree with me on this, and that probably played a role in her not getting the votes. Dont get me wrong....I really enjoyed watching her and will miss seeing her performances....I do wish she would have lasted longer, and I was shocked to see her go. But in the end, I would like to see someone else win it.
And I know that all of the stars have an advantage in some area...they have brought this point up on the show before. The actors have the advantage of being able to perform and entertain, the athletes have the strength, the singers have live performance experience. And it can be argued that these all cancel each other out, therefore everyone has an equal chance. But I dont think you can apply this argument to the ones with heavy dance experience. Afterall, the show is "Dancing" with the stars...not "Acting" with the stars.

All the celebrities did really well last night, this is a pretty tough competition.
I do think Marie should go though, she is getting really good but I still don't think her skill is on the same level with the others.

I disagree. I think Jennie should go. Jennie is a better dancer than Marie. But I think Jennie is boring to watch - no personality at all. At least Marie is entertaining, plus she really made an effort to up her game last night with content.

Yes Jenny is my next choice. I know what you mean though, she is not very entertaining.

If Marie wins, i doubt i will be watching the show ever again. She hasn't gotten any 30's yet and people who are getting 30's are getting eliminated. Annoyed.

I agree. I will give it to Marie that she is a great performer. But this is a dance competition and she just doesn't have the dance skill that some of the other performers have. I will be sadly disappointed if she ends up winning just because she has a large fanbase. I really think they should rethink how the judges and viewers votes tie in. I think they should make the judges voted count for more.

Exactly what I've been thinking.

I was hoping mel would take it but at least it wasnt marie, congrats helio!

I was SO EXCITED when they said "Helio and Julianne"!! I wouldn't have been disappointed if Mel B had won-she is a fantastic dancer and has a great attitude. I didn't want to like her at first, but she really grew on me by the end. I love that she's all English and proper and then opens her mouth and talks like a sailor on leave. I just loved Helio from the start though. He had me at Hello. I love how that man says Rumba-"Roomba." :lol: Probably the Indianapolis factor comes into play. Maybe I'm just more familiar with him. Either way, I was VERY glad he won, but more glad that Marie didn't! :lookaroun
