Dancing With The Stars Pairings
Now that the Olympics are over, ABC would like to take the time to remind everyone that NBC is the last place network and with stellar entertainment like that animal show, will probably continue to be in last. ABC also took the time to announce what the all-star pairings will be for the upcoming season of Dancing With The Stars.
Kristie Alley (season 12) and pro Maksim Chmerkovskiy.
Former ‘NSync member Joey Fatone (season 4) and pro Kym Johnson.
Bristol Palin (season 11) and Mark Ballas.
Former Dallas Cowboys star Emmitt Smith (season 3) and pro Cheryl Burke.
Z lister Melissa Rycroft (season 8) and Tony Dovolani.
"DWTS” champs Apolo Anton Ohno and Shawn Johnson will have new teammates. Ohno won season 4 with former pro Julianne Hough, but will dance this season with Karina Smirnoff. Johnson won season 8 with pro partner Mark Ballas, so this time gets Derek Hough.
Pamela Anderson (season 10), will partner up with pro Tristan McManus.
Kelly Monaco gets Valentin.
Helio Castroneves gets my favorite, Chelsie Hightower.
Drew Lachey gets Anna.
Gilles Marini gets Peta.
Kirstie. Where's Shelly?
ReplyDeleteOmg. Should I call my mom and make sure she's heard? Oh, wait, she'll be calling me soon to make sure I've heard. Even though I've NEVER watched DWTS.
ReplyDeleteP.S. - all the new NBC shows promo'ed during the Olympics look like crapola.
Specially that animal show! Lol!
DeleteI want Gilles to win this time. He was robbed.
ReplyDeletePeta is a helluva choreogropher, so yay!
Who is the chick in the pic next to Joey Fattone, and is it me or is she super cross-eyed?
ReplyDeleteOne of the pro dancers
DeleteEvery time I've tried to watch this show I don't make it past 2 or 3 episodes. I do love Kelly Monaco though, so I may have to watch.
ReplyDeleteThat chick pictured has had a TRAGIC nose-job. Sheesh.
ReplyDeleteFurther confirmation that the powers thar be love Derek Hough and hate Mark Ballas.
ReplyDeleteI think that's Kym Johnson in the pic.
ReplyDeleteHave never watched Dancing with the Stars, American Idol, or the X-Factor and don't intend to start any time soon. I just don't see the appeal.
ReplyDeleteFrufra- I've never watched this show but I can tell you about every season thanks to my mom! I get my weekly update from her once it starts!
ReplyDeleteDiscoflux gets a bottle of gin and watches something else.
ReplyDeleteMeant Krisie, not Kirstie.
ReplyDelete@discoflux, I'll bring the tonic.
That's Kym Johnson at right.
ReplyDeleteI would have preferred all the *stars* received different *dancers* and not just some of them. It would have leveled the playing field a bit.
ReplyDeleteSadly, I watch every episode and my mother has no interest. Feel free to have your mothers call me.
I wonder what strings the Palins' pulled to get Bristol on the show? I'm not a fan of Mark Ballas, but feel sympathy for him now.
ReplyDeleteI didn't bother to watch the last go-round, but I think the upcoming season should be good.
ReplyDeleteThe professionals should have been paired with different contestants this year.
Kym does have funny eyes, but she seems very sweet. She's had to deal with some bad dancing partners and took it all in stride.
I loved Emmitt and Cheryl's winning season, it's going to be tough for me to be impartial.
I can't believe anyone still CARES about DWTS!!!
ReplyDelete(except I do want to see how fat Kirstie REALLY is these days!! ;-)
interesting to see Drew and Cheryl together but not together.
ReplyDeleteI agree I would have preferred to see them have to work with a different pro.
@bobbi_1025 Me either.
ReplyDeleteHowever I do read on here about the participants and I have no idea who Melissa Rycroft, Helio Castroneves or Gilles Marini are.
Helio is a race car driver and Gilles is an actor
DeleteDancing with the Has-beens. I thought that was Heather Locklear with some really bad work done at first.
ReplyDeleteKelly should win just for the way they railroaded her the first time for J Peterman
ReplyDeleteOh no. I think I may need to start watching this again.
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of this show but can't stand the way they stretch 30 minutes of dancing into a hour. Just like the dancing not all of that in between business.
ReplyDeleteOnly in America does having an idiot with a big mouth for a Mother and the ability to get knocked up before you are out of high school make you a "star" I guess next season it will be the kids from Teen Mom and 16 and Pregnant on there.DWTS has some really low standards for what passes as a "star" Bristol Palin has no talent and no personality. She is about as far from being a star as you can get.
ReplyDeleteDid anyone ever see Kathy Griffin make fun of Pam Anderson when she's on DWTS? Very funny. It might be worth watching to see her. She acts completely oversexed and hams it up for the camera even when she's in the background and they are interviewing other dancers.
ReplyDeleteI always read Joey Fatone's name as "fat one".
ReplyDeleteThe ONLY season I watched was Season 4 with Joey Fatone (yeah, I see "Fat One" too @disenchanted! haha) and Apolo Ohno. And they were both FABulous! I'm almost tempted to watch it this time too, just for them. Just wish Laila Ali were in this one too.
