Dancing with the stars?

Maybe next season I will try to watch but I'm still recovering from Kate.

Well, I have never voted, so I guess I shouldn't complain. But if I had.... I would have voted for Brandy. I think Bristol is actually embarrassed, cause she knows she isn't even in the same league as the others.

Gosh, maybe I should actually vote next time, or who knows, Bristol might actually win. Gee, I didn't even know you could vote by email; I'd better pay attention. I just got carried away watching the dancing.

We better start voting for someone other than Bristol, she has a ton of supporters!

I am actually a fan of Sarah Palin, but I have seen about enough of Bristol! I wish the media would just give her no more attention than any other teenage girl who wound up pregnant! She has not earned all this in the least. Everyone I know is sick of seeing her so why doesn't the media respond? I don't think she should have to hide away but come on -- DWTS?

I can imagine how some of them feel that have dedicated years to dancing, remembering the bloody, bruised feet, the countles hours of rehearsing, the years of denying everything else feel having her there! Especially the ones who got bumped so she could be on the show.

Very good point. She sends the wrong message.

I watched the last DWTS episode to see what all of the fuss was about. Bristol was lifeless in both her dancing and her behind-the-scenes rehearsal video. It's as if speaking is such an effort. Very different from her energetic mother. The moves with the dress, picking up the skirt, were awkward.

Bring back Apollo!

This is what I thought. To me, it's like she has been told what to say, and in fear of saying too much, she says what she has been told to say, and nothing more. It seems so rehearsed and never a real answer to the question. I feel so bad for Brandy who deserved it so much more.

I don't think it is fear or programming that holds her back. My impression is that she doesn't have a whole lot going on upstairs. In interviews prior to DWTS, I had the same impression. Maybe she has been told what to say by the show producers because she has great difficulty answering even the simplest questions like, "How do you feel tonight? Are you excited?" They are probably desperate to breathe some life into her for the benefit of the show.

You know what they say about the quiet awkward ones I'm betting she can do a lot without that skirt

As for her mother~can anyone say nails on a chalkboard?


I've got a great idea..................

Well, seeing Yorkies in the White House would be fun.

I enjoy Sarah and saw her in person when she came to my town. She is a very effective speaker.

I missed something. When and how did Bristol become a star of anything?

[OwnedByJezebel]

Even though the better dancer got voted off this week (I don't think anyone disputes that), the producers of this show have got to be loving this. It's all about ratings to bring in more money, and the controversy is doing just that. That is more important to them than the best dancer winning the competition.

[dogbert]

But alot of people say they won't watch anymore if Bristol wins.

Well, I'm actually less likely to watch, not more likelier! I finally saw the show, and boy did everyone look shocked, I'm not sure I'd want to win, if others were all saying, "What the h happened?" Is it true you can vote by computer/email? Someone told me that, and thinks that's how things got skewed.

I was shocked as well; I missed it. I will say that Bristol was better than I expected; but NO WAY is she in the same league with Jennifer and Brandy. It should be those two duking it out in the final.

Kinda makes the show seem kind of stupid; the best dancers should be in the finals.

Even Kate got the boot before that.

Bristol strikes me as a very passive individual.
