Urgrace, I agree, this type of dancing is just not for Billy Ray. I am just upset for the unnecessary rudeness in the remarks. It was crap - what kind of critique is that? NT: I think by the last remarks Billy Ray just made, that I have to agree with you, couldn't tell if it was more po'd or hurt, maybe equally both.

You know, the judges can be unnecessarily cruel sometimes. It's not like Billy Ray (or anyone, really) came in thinking they could dance. This IS a competition and half the competition is the vote by the public. If they didn't want someone to win, they should NOT have invited that person on the show. Granted, the judges probably don't get a whole lot of say in who gets on the show, but it's not necessary to be cruel. I'm sure Billy Ray recognizes he's not the best dancer. 'Nuff said.

also them being cruel might keep him in another week. I love Billy, he isnt the best dancer but he sure seems like a great guy and I am not ashamed to say I love Hanna Montana!

I think that was unnecessary by Bruno, absolutely. Maybe he's trying to be Simon Cowell. But there is no need to say someone dances like crap. Just say what they are doing wrong, and justify your score. No need to be so mean. In front of the man's daughter!

Pamy Like you said by Him being Cruel it might just bring in votes for Billy Ray! The reason I never danced much was when I was young a guy walked of the dance floor and said I couldn't dance! I never danced again. If I try to dance now my legs feel like sticks of wood :-( No One needs to be cruel ANd Yup Karuuna One Simon Cowell is enough

I picked up the phone and voted all for Billy Ray...and i was not even gonna vote tonight. But that was just mean to call him crap. I wish we could vote out a judge this week.

I guess I should consider myself properly chastised, but I won't. Two couples are going home tomorrow night and we know one will be Billy Ray. What's wrong with Billy Ray coming in next to last?

Personally, I wish we could vote off a judge too. Now, that would be just the thing! I think people vote for someone who was the object of cruelty to make up for the cruelty. If the judges are unhappy that Billy Ray is still there, then they should be more circumspect, because that's what happens when they are not. Same as on AI.

I"m thiinking Apolo, and Joey have nailed the finals. I still think Laila will make it, but only because she has more fans than Ian.

it's not like Bruno hasn't said the same thing to other bad dancers. how is being called an abomination by Len any nicer? I personally think Billy Ray made the situation worse with his tirade and then to bring it up again at the 2nd vote, wasn't all that classy. what worries me is that he will be kept in by all the people who felt sorry for him or that Bruno shouldn't have been rude and someone good will get voted off.

First and foremost, this is a dancing competition. Therefore, Billy Ray should be voted out. He is not even close in caliber to any of the other celebrities. Maybe he would win singing, but, this is a dance show. People always show their true colors. Him tonight and Heather a few weeks ago.

That's my worry, too, Texannie ... that all these pity votes will get him over the hump and he'll be in the semifinals ...

and that would be truly awful, LT. and yes, they aren't professional dancers, but as this show is called DANCING with the Stars, not TRYING your best with the Stars, Billy Ray should go.

If the show is truly a dance competition, then more weight should be given to dance scores than popularity votes. If not, then don't call it a dance competition.

I liked Apollos tango and Joey's waltz (?) the best. Let's see what second dances I can see before Heroes is on.

This is the first time I've ever voted, so I went to abc to vote, and it says I can vote up to 5 times per e-mail address. I've voted like 15 times, and it still submits them. Am I on crack, or is their website? TIA, I only watched this tonight cause there was no hockey on so I go watch TV with DH, and it turns out he's been watching this all along. lol (What role-reversal, huh?)

I've got to hand it to the judges for continually coming up with so-called "reasons" to justify giving Ian low scores. I've got to hand it to Billy Ray for putting on a "hurt" act to get fans to vote for him because those mean judges were rude to him. I've got to hand it to Laila for having her father in the audience so the camera could catch him and wring tears from the eyes of fans and votes for her. I've got to hand it to Joey for using his personality to outshine his two rather boring dance routines. I've got to hand it to Apolo for dancing like a champion.
