Dancing with the Stars: Season 5 OFFICAL THREAD!!! STARS ANNOUNCED!

[Mean Queen]

Saw it. What was up with that?

I missed GMA, what happened? Mel doesn't seem like the type to play nice. She put her whole paternity thing out in the open rather than handle it more discreet. Plus, she just seems like she's more of the Eliza Doolittle before rather than after.

helio and julianne wer on the view today and he talked about his fiance and they showed a pic...so i think they are still together.they asked if she got upset about the kiss, and he jokingly said yes she did. as for him not being HOT -he was voted among the sexiest man in one of the magazines... not my type but loved his personality..

They claim marie has a writter on set at all times feeding her answers to questions , always right off the stage, I dont know if its true or not but can cetainly see how it could be true.

This show has helped many a dead career or stalled career into a healthy revived career, alot of stars want IN. Just look at donny getting the et gig out of all of this. All of a sudden the mug is right back in the limelight again, along with job offers. I would not blaime her a bit and like another poster stated, you dont get to where the osmands did not being savy.

yeah i really can't stand seeing him on ET anymore....i used to watch that show whenever possibly but now i don't even bother.

 

[LiLIrishChick63]

Ain't THAT the truth....

All the guys I know DROOLING over Mel B would rather die than vote for a dancing contest.

and WHERE'S the cute guy? Helio reminds me of Horschack from Welcome Back Kotter! Cute? No. Adorable maybe but ugh....

And I am sick sick sick of Julianne!!! Sicker than other people were of Cheryl! NEXT!!!!!!

i like Julianne, much more than i liked Cheryl. i liked Cheryl in season 2, but afterwards i didn't like her. and i didn't think she deserved to win the second time around. but i don't think that Julianne will win again. i kinda want her brother to win, i like him!

 

[LiLIrishChick63]

Did anyone watch GMA this am? I kind of got the impression that Mel B. was kind of a sore looser. I always liked her personality but this am she was really annoying to me. I do think she has a "hair across her ear" about loosing to Helio.

where i think that Mel B was the better dancer, her personality kind of annoyed me a bit. she always cut into other people's conversations whenever possible...i mean look what she did lastnight with Helio! and he was pretty angry about it, too.

one of "which" magazines....because there's so many.

obviously America sees something i don't see.

i think Apolo should come back again. i really enjoyed watching him and Julianne together.

I guess i missed her doing something to Helio last night--what was it?? And what did she say on GMA? She did come across as not a very gracious loser. Her personality annoyed me too. I'm glad Helio won!

I sort of missed what she did to Helio last night - I know Maks dragged her away.

I saw GMA online, but can't find it anymore. But they had her and Maks on the screen while interviewing Helio, and she kept making "Loser" symbols over her head - meaning herself and Maks - then complained about how early it was - then told Helio she didn't like him much at the moment..... Maybe she was trying to be funny? She did have some nice things to say, that got quoted in the article.

they were asking the final 3 contestants what they were going to miss most about the show once it ended and they got thru Marie and Mel and went to Helio and he started saying he'd miss Julianne and Mel got over to the mic and said "OH AND I'LL MISS MAKS, TOO!" and then just kind of went on and on and Helio kept saying "i'm trying to talk here!" and then he eventually just walked off camera.

i didn't see GMA, so i don't really know what happened.

the girl is a good dancer, but not much in the personality department.

I got a different impression, that what happened was all in good fun, even Helio walking off. He did come back. I do feel that he got cut off, by the hostess not Mel. Since it was live there really wasn't enough time when they got to him.

And I do feel that Mel is a sore loser. Just like what's her face, the professional that danced with Mario Lopez and lost to the other what's her face and Emmet.

 

[DisHornFan]

Thanks for posting the videos, I think Mel is just trying to be funny not rude. That is her personality. I agree with the person before me about last night too everything was all in good fun and Samantha was cutting everyone off anyway.


I'm still sad that they didn't win. This show is so much harder for girls!!!

 

[robinb]

Thanks for the links. I loved how excited Helio was and how he just bounced around like Tigger . I did think that Mel was being snarky and Maks kept on reining her in. Oh well. I still think she was the better dancer.

 

[geetey]

Mandy, thanks for the video links! I agree with the previous posters - I think Mel was trying to be funny, not rude. I did think it a little weird/rude how often Diane Sawyer kept making comments about how small Julianne & Helio are, especially Julianne's feet.

Cameron was funny, but the whole interview was very loose. I think the DWTS people just took over!

 

[Kirby]

This may have already been mentioned, I haven't read everyone's comments. My mother called me today and said that there was an article in the Dallas Morning News that stated that the producers for DWTS tried to rig the show by having people on this year such as Mel, Sabrina and Jane who had had dancing experience because they wanted a woman to win this time. I'll have to get the article from her to see exactly what it said and who it was quoting. Looks like it still didn't matter. If it is true, they should just leave it alone. People will vote for who they want to vote for. The only guarantee for a woman to win is to have all females.

 

[lsyorke]

Did anyone else see Sabrina's partners shoulder dislocate during their dance? They mentioned it on the TV Guide channel. I just watched it again. OUCH!!! He is talking to her the whole dance trying to tell her that he may not be able to so some parts of the dance, but darn if he didn't do them anyway.

 

[Mean Queen]

I just went and watched it on You Tube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWnFrkqrPqE and you can see when he hurt himself. He went down to the floor and something happened to his left shoulder. He kept grabbing his left shoulder and avoiding using that arm the rest of the dance. I never noticed until you mentioned it.

 

[lsyorke]

I didn't notice it either, until it was pointed out. Credit to him for continuing on!! On the youtube video, it happens at about 46-47 seconds in.

 

[robinb]

Ouchie! Poor guy. I never watch the pro, but only the star so I completely missed it.

ETA: Helio's breakup with his fiance is now official

If he hooks up with Julianne (after she dumped her fiance earlier this year) I'm going to sing a rousing chorus of "I was right and you were wrong!", LOL.

UMG Mercury Signs Dancing Winner

Sarah Skates – 11/29/2007​

​

Nineteen-year-old Dancing With The Stars champ Julianne Hough (pronounced "Huff") has signed to Universal Music Group Nashville’s Mercury division. She revealed the news to television program Extra saying, “I have my first album out in April, and my first single’s out in January. I’m excited!” Scheduled to record in Nashville next month, the professional dancer won Dancing’s most recent fifth season with dance partner race car driver Helio Castroneves, as well as last year's series with Olympic skater Apolo Anton Ohno.




I've heard the song she has on Itunes and she does have a good voice.
