Northstar stated:
I think she's tired of the overbearing game he's playing when what she wants to do is dance and dance well. It WOULD be exhausting.

ROFLMAO! I started reading this page at this post and thought you were talking about Kate and being facetious. After going up some posts, I realize you are talking about Cheryl.

It's really funny if it's meant to be about Kate.

Not so funny for Cheryl. At what point will someone step in and tell Chad to cool it in the way he is with Cheryl?

Ya I was surprised with the ring, my first thought was he's young with way too much money. Cheryl probably should talk to him but it's awkward I'm sure.

I am so glad Kate is gone, she was painful to watch, and her personality leaves a LOT to be desired. If I never have to see her again, it will be too soon for me.

The thing about her inability to dance is... well, it's really not a big deal. A lot of other "celebs" haven't had any dance ability. But they had "learn ability." Along with something else... charisma, a joie de vrie, something. Something that made them enjoyable to watch even if their dancing wasn't always enjoyable.

P.S. I understand the terror of going out and performing. However, if you trust your partner, and I mean REALLY trust your partner, you can tune (or learn to tune) everything else out. You just focus. Focus on your partner. Focus on the cues he (or she) is giving you. Focus on the music. And trust that your partner has taught you well. (I think that person had zero trust in Tony and I think it showed.)

I'm also glad that Kate is gone. I much prefer talking about ALL the contestants!

My votes will be going to Pam, Niecy Erin and Evan.

I didn't like the awkwardness of putting pants on within a dance routine - made me nervous!

I felt that Len should have given Pam a break since they did that awesome chair/table/chair move.

I'm not liking the Cheryl/Chad weirdness, however I do like the Erin/Maks weirdness!

Sad that it's this early in the competition and it looks like Derek and Nicole will win. No suspense. I'm not voting for them just for that reason!

Funny I was thinking that same thing Rosem. This season started out with a boom right from the first show with controversy regarding Kate. The other dancers and pros most likely were effected by it as well.

Professionals dancers are usually very A type personalities in their craft, driven and focused. It takes years of discipline and practice for them to reach this level. I imagine for Cheryl, who's very competitive, that Chad's silliness is a concern. She wants to win. I hope for his sake he focuses more on bettering himself than playing Romeo.

Pam could be the dark horse if she continues improving. While Nicole is perfection Pam's got a lively vibe that makes, for me, watching her very enjoyable. I feel the same way about Evan, perfection but flat emotionally. I actually was starting to think Chad might zip up to the top of the contestants and I think Cheryl knows it's possible as well, is why she's playing hardball with him and hoping to refocus him now with Kate out of the mix.

I give it to the Kate fans, they definitely kept her in and made her a threat based solely on their voting strength.

Next week will be very telling.

I thought tony was very kind and gracious last night. I have never thought of him as insincere so I don't believe he would have said quite as much as he did if he didn't believe it. Later on Jimmel Kimmel, they seemed to have a nice repoire with one another, joking and teasing. makes me wonder if alot of the tension wasn't hyped up to be more than it was for the publicity.

There is only one reason I'm glad Kate was voted off and that is because she looked to tired and worn out that I was worried about her health. I would have loved to see her find her dance groove. I was just like her years ago when I first started to dance. But one day I got 'it' and was considered a pretty good dancer after that.

Tex, I think you are right about the hype. I watched them on GMA today, they were smiling and laughing. She looked very tired. (It was very early LA time.) They seemed good together. Tony said they only showed the drama and they both said they had a lot of fun and laughter during dance practices. They both said how hard it was that the custody thing came up in the middle of this DWTS season. He said he had to wear a lot of hats and was never sure which Kate he would be seeing. At least once he told her to go upstairs and be with the kids for awhile.

Kate said after awhile she only allowed the kids to see her dance and not to hear the judges because the negative comments made the kids upset.

I noticed Kate/Tony didn't dance out last night like most couple's do. Tom sort of switched it up and made sure she wouldn't have to.

What's going to happen when they go on Kelly and Regis and Kate has to dance with Regis??

Oh my goodness...using the kids again! Kate was upset and didn't want her kids to see/hear the truth! Sheesh! How can anyone fall for this woman's manipulation and control.

Guess what one critique she actually heard and passed on the last night she danced. It was Carrie saying she saw a 'bit of grace.' Kate will now say she 'had a bit of grace' as a dancer, when she had none whatsoever.

Costa made a good point about 'celebrities' not knowing how to dance but they learned. Herein lies the problem. Kate is not a celebrity or a star; she's a housewife with 8 children who got divorced. Not a star. She doesn't have the discipline that real celebrities and stars have.

Kate is only a star in her own mind and one of these days she will fall back to earth when people stop doing her bidding.

even President Obama has talked about how he shields his girls from the negative comments...guess he doesn't want his kids to see and hear the truth.
which in the case of DWTS is rather subjective anyway.
if kate considers herself a celebrity it might be due to the fact that she is asked on Larry King, the View, DWTS, various other shows and has written books that people buy.

Okay, did anyone notice how throughout the show, Tom said Kate and Tony are in the bottom 2 every other sentence. He must have said it over 50 times. I have never ever seen him do that. If anyone has it taped, watch it and see if I am right.

What exactly is manipulative or controlling about not wanting your children upset?

seriously, why would any person want a child to have to listen to negative comments about their parent? what are they suuposed to learn?
i guess if the parent was Hitler or Jeffrey Dalmer it would be important for his children to know the truth, but dancing badly?? just don't see the need.

I'd say that is a pretty normal reaction on her part, particularly with young children.

She's definitely in one of those tough spots...no matter what she does, there is going to be criticism. I hope she just keeps moving forward and continues to raise her children in the way that she thinks is best and not the way everyone else thinks is best.

Even though Kate is no dancer, I see her prevailing in life. She is no quitter. I wish her good luck and a patch of smooth sailing for awhile.

I'm just glad she is gone because the woman cannot dance and it always looked so painful when she was on the floor trying to dance.

I am loving Max and Erin, but actually I love all the dancers, now that Kate is gone.

Is it just me or is Cheryl falling for Chad?

LOL, Terolyn.

I think it's the opposite Denecee. I thought she looked a bit freaked out the other night; it's beginning to look a bit like harassment to me actually.

I don't wish Kate bad, I just wish her to go away. I have no interest in her, or anything happening in her life, and she is constantly thrown into the public eye.
