Joanna Krupa: 'Amazing' to be 'Dancing with the Stars' Frontrunner

Sun, 8 Nov 2009 22:28:50 +0000

Following two great consecutive weeks on Dancing with the Stars , can Joanna Krupa and pro partner Derek Hough really win it all? Mya has something to say about that, but for the swimsuit model, it feels "amazing" to the show's frontrunner, especially in view of Mya's recent slip in the leader board. "I feel like I'm in a dream and somebody needs to pinch me only because I've dreamt of being a ballerina since I was little. When I first signed up for the show, I'm like, "Oh, I hope I can get to Week 2 or Week 3" because of the whole model curse they told me about. Being here every day is such an honor. I've definitely exceeded my and Derek's expectations because I never knew I had it in me, but it shows, with determination and hard work, you can do anything."

Sun, 8 Nov 2009 22:13:34 +0000

Susan Boyle is set to sing on a show called Dancing with the Stars this week.

Iron Chef America host Mark Dacascos and former NFL star Michael Irvin tried to improve their dance scores each week but sadly their efforts weren't enough to keep them in the running on Dancing with the Stars.

Kelly Osbourne's 'Dancing with the Stars' Breakdown - What Do You Think?

Thu, 5 Nov 2009 00:25:03 +0000

Apparently, there was something we didn't see in the rehearsal vid of celeb Kelly Osbourne and partner Louis Van Amstel this Monday on Dancing with the Stars (or maybe they showed it, but I wasn't paying attention?). The duo was practicing for that week's salsa, and we saw the mini-breakdown from Kelly and her resistance to Louis' new approach, even breaking down in tears at one point. The Daily Mail reports, moreover, that Kelly Osbourne didn't just break down, she told everyone - including her erstwhile partner and the cameras - to back off, yelling "Can you give me space? I'm getting anxiety and getting pissed off."

Dancing with the Stars: What's Next for Mark and Lacey?

Thu, 5 Nov 2009 00:15:09 +0000

Sure, Dancing with the Stars fans might miss Michael Irvin's (over)enthusiasm, but the harder part of last night's double elimination was saying goodbye to the promising tandem of Mark Dacascos and Lacey Schwimmer. Promising, because prior to this week's crazy weird routine (due largely to Lacey's absence), Mark and Lacey were on a high, scoring two consecutive 26's and on Dancing with the Stars , they actually revealed they finally started feeling like contenders. But in any case, you ask what's next for Mark and Lacey, who is by the way, still very sick and just pushed herself to dance during the dance-off? First things first, the two are off to the big apple to do The View . Check out what happened on the results show this week.

DWTS' Cheryl Burke in Talks to Star in Chicago on Broadway

Broadway, get ready for Cheryl Burke . . . and all that jazz! The Dancing with the Stars vet is currently in negotiations to play the lead role of Roxie Hart in Chicago on Broadway during the TV show's hiatus, a source confirms exclusively to Usmagazine.com . Relive the finale moments from the last season of DWTS Burke, 25, submitted an audition tape in Los Angeles last week. "People don't see her as a singer," the source concedes, "but she trained for her audition with one of the top vocal coaches in L.A." She wouldn't be the first DWTS alum to kick up her heels in the Tony-winning revival: host Samantha Harris played Roxie for six weeks in the summer of this year.

NFL great Michael Irvin was hailed as the "team leader," while "Iron Chef America" host Mark Dacascos was called the "calming to the storm" by their fellow "Dancing with the Stars" competitors. Now, both men have been eliminated and ET is backstage to get their reactions. "I'm glad that we started together and we finished together. ... The passion for what these dancers do is infectious," Mark says, standing next to his dancing partner Lacey Schwimmer. Michael says making it to the seventh week of the competition without getting voted off was like "winning the Super Bowl." The former NFL player said the friendships made backstage are what he'd miss. "We're going to miss hanging out with the rest of the celebrities. ... We're blessed, what a great experience."

NFL great Michael Irvin and "Iron Chef America" host Mark Dacascos became the next two celebs to get ousted on "Dancing with the Stars"! Michael and his pro partner Anna Demidova were the first duo booted on Tuesday night after receiving the lowest combined total of judges' scores and viewer votes.

Yesterday, I wrote: Wouldn't it be a riot if Aaron Carter got a 29 and then got eliminated? It can happen you know. Well what do we have here on Dancing with the Stars .

Dancing with the Stars: Week 7 Live Results

Tue, 3 Nov 2009 19:24:53 +0000

Two more couples are going home on Dancing with the Stars , the Ballas Hough Band is performing live, and hopefully we'll get to see even more of Derek Hough's fantasy world. I'll be here throughout the hour keeping an eye on the show, but I think this week is very predictable. The judges' scores this week on Dancing with the Stars have the bottom three couples separated by quite a bit from the top of the pack, so it's almost certain that Mark Dacascos will go home and Michael Irvin will (hopefully) lose to Mya in the dance-off. I've been right about who goes home for the past two weeks, so my confidence level is very high.

Flu and Fancy Footwork Frolic on 'Dancing with the Stars'

Tue, 3 Nov 2009 11:45:00 +0000

The flu bug has dominated the "Dancing with the Stars" competition this season. Derek Hough had to sit out a few weeks ago and on Monday night, Lacey Schwimmer was replaced by Anna Trebunskaya to partner Mark Dacascos . Mark spoke to Lacey earlier in the day and reported to ET, "She's getting a little bit better, but still not 100%." Meanwhile, the other pro dancers and celebrities are fighting through the sniffles and coughs as they samba, quickstep, and foxtrot closer to the coveted mirror ball trophy. As Donny Osmond spun partner Kym Johnson in their quickstep, the under the weather entertainer felt as if "the room was spinning around." Aaron Carter , who was awarded with "Len's first ten of the season," put his game face on, saying, "Nothing could take me from this competition, no flu, nothing."

'Dancing with the Stars' Week 7 - The Best and the Worst

Mon, 2 Nov 2009 21:08:48 +0000

What did you think of this week's Dancing with the Stars performances? The leader board, for one, looks weird. Aaron Carter and Karina Smirnoff got a stunning 29 but their group paso was a letdown, so their overall score was only good for second spot at 53. On the other hand, Joanna Krupa and Derek Hough got only 27 for their first dance, but the 28 they got for the group tango lifted their score to 55, the night's best. On the other side of the spectrum, Mark Dacascos and Anna Trebunskaya (temp replacement to Lacey Schwimmer) had a sort of fall from grace, after a great two weeks or so and find themselves in the bottom of the pile at 43, four points below what-is-he-still-doing-here Michael Irvin, who, by the way, is just two points away from frontrunner Mya, who is astonishingly third from the bottom with 49.
