Okay, so I checked. I haven’t talked about Dancing with the Stars since late August…before the show even premiered.
Talk about self-control.
Now the competition is in full swing. I like David and Carson and find Nancy Grace annoying as predicted. They’ve had their first truly shocking celebrity elimination — Kristin Cavallari, say it isn’t so!
But, as usual, the team that is surging to the forefront — the one that is the clear audience and judge’s favorite is…
Derek Hough + one
It doesn’t matter who he dances with, really. She can be famous, unknown, tall, short, talented, or just so-so. If Derek is dancing with her — and choreographing their numbers — you will be hard-pressed to find another pair that can take that glittery, mirror ball trophy away from him.
Except maybe his sister Julianne…and she’s moved on to bigger and better things. (See Footloose this weekend.)
If you aren’t a DWTS watcher — my my, what you are missing — go to the Intertubes and get a load of Derek and Ricki Lakes’ tango to the Psycho movie theme song that they danced last night.
Killer.
Perfect pairing
If today’s announcement of the Dancing with the Stars All-Stars celebrity/pro pairings was on your entertainment radar –
You’re at the right blog.
When DWTS earlier revealed the celebrities for the season — all past winners, runners-up and audience favorites — I knew I would be torn between three:
They danced in different seasons — the latter two winning DWTS with pro Julianne Hough, who is not returning — but head-to-head? How will I choose?
The pro dancer pairing, of course.
And based on today’s announcement alone, I am prepared to predict the winner of Dancing with the Stars All-Stars:
Actor Giles Marini and dancer Peta Murgatroyd…and here’s why:
Can’t wait for the season to start and be proven right!
