Who The Heck Cares?


As a guy who has always struggled with weight, I hate people who get off telling other people they need to lose weight. Sure, I know I'm obese and need to lose a few pounds, but hey, the women on DWTS are not fat. I may not like them personality wise, but as far as their weight goes they look great.

Apparently though, some of the male dancers on the show think that Cheryl Burke and Lacey Schwimmer look fat this year and fell it is turning viewers off to the show. I will tell you what turns viewers off. The fact that Louis van Amstel and Maksim Chmerkovskiy complained to TV Guide about the girls looking fat.

Maksim had this to say about the two women. "When I first saw these women this season, I said, Guys, you know the camera adds 10 pounds. You have to do something about this."

Umm, who the f**k made Maksim the boss? Maybe he should stop whining about the women on the show and be thankful he is getting to earn a few bucks other than teaching people how to ballroom dance for $10 an hour.

And Louis? He is just as much of a jerk. "[People] look at this show to be inspired and think, 'If I just work hard enough, I can look like that,'" he says. "If they watch someone who's dancing her butt off and she's still heavy, they can be discouraged."

What people should watch is how good the dancers are. Who says you have to be slim to be a good dancer? Some of these football players are not exactly light, but it doesn't seem to stop them from having fun and doing a good job competing. The idea of the show is to give people a good time and see who is the best dancer, not to pull out a scale each week. I don't watch the show, but I'm guessing the judges don't take off points for how much someone weighs.

All I do know is that these two guys are probably not on the Christmas card list of Cheryl and Lacey. I think they look fine just the way they are.
