Ah ha! That was it, Bug! That was what kinda bugged me (no pun intended) about Vivica... she was "a bit full of" herself.

You could tell none of Ashly's sisters were professional dancers when paraded out on the floor with her. They did alright and any reason to see Ashly again is good enough for me. I think she'll be back next season. Maybe she's a good teacher is why they stick her with the less talented individuals. Just a thought.

i'm a sara fan, and will admit i'm voting for her...sorry. eta: costacat, i agree about vivica...she did seem quite full of herself. the look on her face when they announced that sara was safe "oh wow" - priceless..a little humility. jmho, of course. pamy, sara is a country singer.

After watching Mario again, you can easily see he never had any real dance training. His posture when he dances is horrid. That would have been taken care of first thing. I don't let my girls slouch during dance. Ever. It messes everything up, from turns to jumps and leaps to tumbling. No good instructor would have let Mario out in public dancing that way. Not that he doesn't look super hot... :-)

I also thought Vivica was a bit full of herself, especially when asked if she was worried about the possibility of leaving, she said she really wasn't worried and didn't think she would be leaving. Well, anyone can go at anytime, as she found out.

I didn't sense that Vivica was full of herself, but that she was a little too intense about the competitive aspect of this show. She was a little too serious about it. She lost graciously, though. I thought the Delgrosso girls were adorable. I read that the mom owns a dance studio, so it stands to reason all the girls would be brought up dancing. They probably take different styles of dance other than ballroom.

Heck, I'm excited about seeing Nick sing. As far as Willa goes, she has proven that you CAN make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. I hope that doesn't offend anyone, but that gal was Corse with a capital C. I think this will be a life changing experience for her. And I think she dances beautifully. It is sad that no matter how well she performes, she will not win, just because of fan votes. I'd prefer to see nothing but professional judging all the way through. It sure wouldn't lessen my interest.

Too bad Dancing wasn't around in time for Courtney Love or Anna Nicole.

I'm surprised so many thought Jerry would go. I didn't expect him to even be bottom 2 after that tear jerking dance and audience reaction last night. He had to get a ton of votes for that. He got most of my votes, along with Joey who is a good dancer but I'm not sure has the fan base (and I agree he needs to grow some hair to go around that cute face). The country singer is the worst dancer from my perspective. She just looks so stiff and uneasy and often seems to misstep. None of the women really wow me this time. I wouldn't be surprised to see an all male top 3 or 4, but I have a feeling the judges will try to influence that.

If it were based on talent alone, Joey, Willa, Mario and Monique, should be the final four. Joey and Mario are so obviously ahead of the curve for now, but I think Willa and Monique could catch up, given the chance.

Shel, I had the opposite reaction to Mario's dancing. For the first time I thought he had a lot more training than he has let on to because of the way he 'spotted' his turns. I had a very funny feeling when Vivica went on and on about how safe they were because of the 8's and their solid fan base that she was a goner!

I was not a Vivica fan. I didn't see her as fantastic as the judges were giving her. Monique certainly didnt deserve bottom. I thought she was touching crying after her dance. I was surprised during judging night they didnt say anything about Sara's misteps when she got hung in her dress. Willa is pretty rock so I am pretty sure she has not many fans watching this show. As far as the threads the other day about the empty audience during the professional dances, I noticed balcony was empty and only a few seated at tables up front. so must be staged I LOVE Los Loney Boys. so excited to see them on. and good to see Drew supporting Nick. I do think they need to cut the results show down .

Did any one notice that Ashley and her sisters all had names that start with an A? How cutesy is that?I do realize that this is a popularity contest but I wish it weren't sometimes. Of course my favorites this year happen to have the best ability and seem to be popular so far. But Jerry and Sara need to go if you look at ability. How they are still here compared to who has been let go the last two weeks just blows me away!

Some random thoughts: Why do I STILL not know who Willa Ford is? Can someone please tell us whether she had any hit songs and what they were called? Is there a music video out there? I would think I would know who every "bad girl of pop" was, watching all the crap on television I do. Did anyone notice the picture of Jerry and his daughter dancing they showed? So he HAS danced before, another conspiracy for you folks. Heh. Does anyone else recognize one of the dance studios from So You Think You Can Dance? I do.

Madelane...she had one "hit" song called "I wanna be bad" I think and that's why she is called the bad girl of pop I think. I think she is more famous for dating Nick Carter of the Backstreet Boys for a while during the time boy bands were really big. And yes...I recognize the studio with all the windows that looks like its upstairs somewhere from SYTYCD

Texannie, some people spot naturally. It usually has to be taught (and sometimes beaten into, lol) to new dancers, but some people are just instinctive with it. Some of the girls I coach have no dance experience at all and began spotting first day of turns. It just depends on the dancer. :-) Also, with Mario, I'm sure Karina beat it in to him. LOL

Finally got a chance to watch the results show. All I can say is, never underestimate the power of a country music star's fan base! Heck at least one of our local country stations is actively encouraging folks to vote for her, saying, "A vote for Sara is a vote for Country!" (Disclaimer: I have not placed any votes, because I never get to watch until at least the next day.)

Well, I guess it's all fair then. How many people vote for Emmit just because he used to play for their favorite football team? How many people voted for Jerry Rice for that same reason? Jerry Springer apparently has a big group voting for him for some reason other than his dancing ability. It's a shame the people who have been ousted never found their fan base. I really thought Springer should've gone because his comments before were that this was painful and once he learned to waltz he'd go to the judges and say "take me out" or something like that. Well, he learned to waltz, but now he's backpedaling about wanting to stop. He had a touching moment with his daughter, but does that mean I want to see him again next week doing the samba? Heck no. That touching waltz should've been his swan song. What a beautiful way to end it, rather than leaving people with a memory of him trying to wiggle his hips or perform a sultry rhumba.

Curlyq, I couldn't have worded it any better than you. Jerry, it was nice while it lasted, but now we want you gone! He knows he should go and let all of us out of this misery. Jerry, if you are reading this,(wishful thinking on my part)beg your fans to let you go,set you free!

Madelane, I hadda google Willa Ford, cause I wasn't familiar with her work, either. Apparently, she's had quite a bit of "exposure" (pun intended, due to her Playboy appearances). I dunno if trashy would really describe her or not, but I think "classy" probably wouldn't exactly fit. I agree about Jerry. I think it's past his time to go. I'm still amazed that they kept talking about Harry's exit last week as the "most shocking." Um, hello? Not so much shocking. The man could barely dance, and truly, how much of a fan base would he have? If Jerry had no fan base, he'd have been long gone.
