Dancing With the Stars - Fall 2017

[Rockette]

I think it's hard for women whose body is their career to even become pregnant because of what pregnancy does to most women. There is more pressure on entertainers to look even better than they did before they became pregnant to show that they still "got it". Men can age and get a little rounder, but women are not allowed the same luxury. I've always liked Peta but I really think she is trying so hard to prove that she's still the same fit dancer that she's overshot her mark.

Peta has always been a bit on the slim side... but it does look like she lost a LOT of muscle mass in her legs. Scroll back through her Instagram history to see her with Nyle a few seasons ago. Her upper body is now more or less the same, but it looks like her legs are about 3/4 the size what they once were.

I did not know anything about her personal life, that she is married, and to who....
But, seriously... I am like, what is wrong with her????
I mean, 'wrong'. Like, as in 'disturbing'.

You don't get any double standard with me.
If it is inappropriate for an older married male to totally oooooogle a young female coworker/castmate, have his hands all over her.... actually hang out his tongue,.... and to make comments about the sweat running down her chest, followed by "...she is just so G...D... delicious".
Wow.....

I do wonder why there has not been some real commentary and backlash about this.

It was like painful to watch.

100%. Her sexual harassment of him in the first episode was unbearable. I fast-forwarded past her in the next episode.

That's it. I said too lean but I really meant serious atrophy.

Peta had what I would call the perfect body. Hopefully it is just stress and not her thinking she has to be skinny, when she is a professional athlete (I know they/you are artists as well ). I am hoping.

Better music this week

Some great ones. Can't wait for Love On The Brain with Artem and Nikki.

Nikki could be a contender.

 

[lisaviolet]

And Sasha - another favourite of mine - and Gleb's I Can't Help Myself. That song is smile inducing. Off topic but love songs that stand the test of time.

Is every night a theme night now...?

The Redskins game is preempting DWTS tonight :'( Is there somewhere I can watch the dances online?

I like football and usually DVR and watch after DWTS but now I'm irritated (which is my husband every week...lol)

Tom also mentioned the one question about Victoria that I had about how will she know if she hurts herself. He said how she has a lot of tape and ankle/leg supports on her legs so they don't get all twisted.

I actually liked Drew this week! We bobbled a little about 3/4 the way through but I agree with the scores.

Derek: love Sharna! Cute cha-cha. It sounded like Alfonso was singing! A tiny bit over scored.

Victoria: I really liked it! She was amazing and so was Val.

 

[mandy200587]

i'm not sure about vanessa's cha cha

 

[Imzadi]

It sounded like Alfonso was singing!

I think this season some of the songs are the original songs. Last week I swear I heard Barry Manilow singing. That or they finally got singers who can sing.

 

[mandy200587]

i think they are using some of the original songs i noticed that the other week

 

[Imzadi]

I was waiting for Beyonce's sister to come smack them around the elevator.

 

[robinb]

Vanessa: she's my guilty pleasure. I really liked her tonight.

Nikki: Yowsa! I need a cold shower. Totally underscored.

Agreed on underscoring Nikki. I think they're still trying to "normalize" the couples. While it lacked the feel of a traditional Viennese Waltz, it still was a good performance with a lot of technical content.

Derek's Cha Cha I thought was terrible. It just felt flat.

Anyone know why Makkks isn't there?

 

[Imzadi]

Anyone know why Makkks isn't there?

Tom said he had to step away for a personal reason. I hope it's not because he knows someone in Las Vegas who was hit.
