I'd buy in to Escapee's list.

I'd also like to add...
NO faux celebrities!
NO faux stars.
NO reality TV 'stars'!

If y'all are gonna call it dancing with the stars, gimme some stars. Otherwise, y'all should call it Dancing with the People. Just sayin'...
:-)

I can't stand Friends, and have never seen My Name is Earl. Not a single one of them is a star to me.

I think Escapees lists is alittle ambitous, but it would be great.

When I finally watched last night's show, I'd forgotten the promos said John Legend was performing. I like him a lot, but didn't especially love him last night. And to top it off, he performed with The Roots, whom I love, but...and here's my brush with fame....before The Roots got famous (they were The Square Roots back then), a friend and I got into a fight with them at an iHOP near Rittenhouse Square in Philadelphia. They wanted me to recognize them, but they were still relatively unknown, and they were trying to impress me by name dropping and I wasn't biting. But it was New year's Eve, I'd had a couple drinks, and I might have told them they should learn something about music before deciding to play it.

Next thing I know, they're making records with Erykah Badu, Jill Scott, et al...That should teach me a lesson.

Even though they've all been in multiple movies and TV shows you don't consider them stars or just not stars in your eyes?

Not in my eyes, Escapee. See, I think of Bristol, Kate Gosselin, et al, to be as much of a "star" as anyone else, because I know who they are. That's exactly my point...a "star" is completely subjective, so I have never been able to understand why all the complaining about certain people being on this show.

But would I NOT watch because the Friends cast was on and I don't like their show? Of course not, I love to watch the dancing and improvements they make. It's not about the celebrity for me, it's about the dancing. If I know them, bonus

who decides who a 'real' star is versus a 'faux' star?

I pick Dovez too :-).

The only people I don't like are the male sports (football, basketball) stars. They always seem to stay far longer than they deserve, Carrie-Ann fawns all over their chests instead of sticking to their dancing, and of course I have no idea who they are because I don't watch any (American) sports. If they're going for sports stars they should stick to unusual ones like Apolo, or I wouldn't mind a nice lithe tennis player.

LOL!! I'd vote for you, Dovez!!

I'd rather not have pretty much any of the Friends, but I'm sure if they COULD get them they'd be stoked. OK .. Lisa Kudrow but not with a short partner.

I think Kurt got an inflated view of his talent. Anna, yes, talent. Kurt, eh. And "beige" is a perfect description!!

I think Kurt thought he was on par with Rick (Cheryl's partner), maybe because he was tall. But Rick could dance! So much of the voting is based on the fans, and I wish it wasn't. He and Cheryl shouldn't have gone home, nor should Tony and Audrina.

has to be a retired player. Maybe Agassi! And you know he'd donate the money to charity (i.e., the amazing school he has in Vegas).

Steffi would be great but just too shy.. but she literally danced when she played.

Roger should wait a few years until he has more time and his twins are old enough to cheer for daddy.

I think Jamie Pressley would be hilarious, and the guy that played Earl's brother (I actually saw him on an episode of Good Guys a couple of weeks ago) is really funny, but I'm guessing he would stink at dancing.

Joey from Friends isn't doing anything these days is he?

Matt Leblanc has finally fessed up that he colored his hair during Friends. He's quite gray.

Joey from Friends is doing a series. I think he plays himself either looking for an acting job or just having got an acting job. It's called "Episodes" and it starts on Showtime in January.

I'd even go for John McEnroe.... just someone different from the giant basketball players or bulky footballers. (Tim Henman would be ideal, but I don't see that happening.)

Oh I'll let you, Cricket ;).

Thank you, Kitt...you're so sweet. I have to agree with Kurt about his remarks. I'd always replay his dances vs. Rick's for my husband and he agreed Kurt was better. The only time I thought Rick was better actually, was the week he got elimnated.

Kurt moves his feet off the floor and puts his heart and soul into it; yet he'd get lower marks. It just didn't make sense. If Lennie really wants justice, perhaps the judges need to rethink their scoring. I feel their low marks for Audrina and Kurt have led to them being off the show, when they are most likely better than Kyle and Bristol.

I like Kyle, but I don't like his partner. There's just something about her...I don't know. She's done fine this year and I do try to watch him separately. I think he'll stay longer than Bristol and will actually make it to the F3.

Oh Cricket.....if only that were true. :-( I hope Kyle gets to stay but I suspect the Palin fans will keep Bristol in long after him. But I can say that I wouldn't be all that upset if she stays because she has tried to improve and seems to be having some fun.
Personally, I wish they would leave politics out of it altogether. Politicians should not be 'stars' IMO. The worst contestant they ever had in that regard was Tom DeLay. Seriously? How is he a star other than just being controversial, which is why they put him on....for the ra(n)tings.

I would have a season of the late night guys and the morning show hosts (except for Kathie Lee who would send me running for the hills). I bet Ann Curry would be very good at the ballroom dances. And I would replace Brooke with Kenny Mayne. His post-dance interviews/comments would be hilarious!!!

Jerry Rice in those false eyelashes was killing us! Here is a guy who was just voted the #1 greatest football player of all times by the NFL network and he lets them make him up like Tammy Faye, I bet Jim Brown (voted #2) was just shaking his head.

That is a really good idea about the morning hosts. Love it! I bet Robin Roberts would be great at dancing.

I personally would LOVE to see Kelly Ripa on there!! I think she would do GREAT! Someone should make a fan page requesting that on facebook. HEHE
