NO SHOCK HERE! FAN FAVORITE JR MARTINEZ AND HIS PARTNER KARINA SMIRNOFF WERE CROWNED THE CHAMPS OF SEASON 13 OF DANCING WITH THE STARS TUESDAY NIGHT, BUT NOT BEFORE A JAM PACKED 2-HOUR FINALE!
FIRST IT WAS TIME TO TAKE THE FINAL THREE CONTESTANTS DOWN TO TWO
AND AFTER IT WAS RICKI LAKE’S TIME TO SAY GOODBYE, IT WAS TIME TO SAY HELLO TO SOME OF OUR OLD FAVORITES FROM THE SEASON
WITH JUST A FEW MINUTES LEFT IN THE SHOW IT WAS TIME FOR JR AND ROB KARDASHIAN TO GO HEAD TO HEAD IN A DANCE OFF – AND WHILEE BOTH COUPLES SCORED PERFECT 10’S, IT WAS CLEAR JR AND KARINA WOULD BE TAKING HOME THE MIRROR BALL TROPHY:
IT’S DOWN TO THE FINAL THREE ON DANCING WITH THE STARS AND ON MONDAY NIGHT, THE COMPETITION HEATED UP.
RICKI LAKE’S CHA-CHA SCORED A 27 AND GOT THE NIGHT OFF TO A GOOD START, AND WHILE HIS SISTER KIM WATCHED FROM THE AUDIENCE, ROB KARDASHIAN EQUALED THAT SCORE WITH HIS WALTZ.
SEASON-LONG FRONT-RUNNER J.R. MARTINEZ WAS THE FIRST TO BLINK IN THE FINALE…
J.R.’S CHA-CHA EARNED HIM THE LOWEST SCORE OF THE NIGHT – JUST A 24. BUT HE’D HAVE A SECOND CHANCE…
J.R. AND KARINA’S PERFECT SCORE WAS ONE OF TWO ON THE NIGHT – ROB AND CHERYL ALSO MANAGED A 30 FOR THEIR JAZZ-CLUB-INSPIRED SECOND DANCE.
RICKI SHOWED OFF HER SLIMMED-DOWN FIGURE IN HER SECOND NUMBER AND EARNED HER SECOND 27 OF THE NIGHT.
SO ROB WAS THE HIGHEST SCORER OF THE NIGHT WITH A TOTAL OF 57 – BUT WILL IT BE ENOUGH TO TAKE HOME THE MIRROR BALL TROPHY? GUESS WE’LL HAVE TO TUNE IN TUESDAY NIGHT TO FIND OUT.
HOPE SOLO MISSES THE GOAL ON DANCING WITH THE STARS…
WOAH, SOUNDS LIKE SOMEONE’S A SORE LOSER…AND BACKSTAGE, HOPE AND MAKS TOLD THE WORLD HOW THEY REALLY FEEL ABOUT THE JUDGES.
AND AFTER THE SHOW, THE SUPERSTAR SOCCER GOALIE REPORTEDLY TURNED ON THE WATERWORKS. A SOURCE TELLS US WEEKLY HOPE DID ONE POST-SHOW INTERVIEW, AND THEN BURST INTO TEARS.
CAN’T WIN ‘EM ALL HOPE…AND NOW IT’S DOWN TO THREE… TUNE IN NEXT MONDAY AND TUESDAY ON ABC FOR THE DANCING WITH THE STARS FINALE. FOR CELEBTV, I’M BT.
AND THEN THERE WERE FOUR…
IT’S DOWN TO THE SEMI-FINALS ON DANCING WITH THE STARS…
AND AN INJURY MAKES ROOM FOR A SURPRISE UPSET…
AFTER TWISTING HIS ANKLE DURING REHEARSALS, THINGS JUST WENT FROM BAD TO WORSE FOR JR MARTINEZ…
AND HE DANCED THROUGH THE PAIN THE SECOND TIME AROUND…
BUT IT LOOKS LIKE JR’S FALL DOWN THE LEADER-BOARD OPENED THE DOOR FOR ROB KARDASHIAN…
AND HE FOLLOWED UP HIS BOOTY-SHAKING SAMBA WITH A SPICY ARGENTINE TANGO…
OF COURSE RICKI LAKE IS STILL A CLEAR CONTENDER, BUT WE’D EXPECT NOTHING LESS....
AND UNFORTUNATELY IT MIGHT BE TIME TO SAY SO LONG TO HOPE SOLO…
SO WHO DO YOU THINK SHOULD WIN THE MIRROR BALL? SEND US A TWEET AND LET US KNOW, AND TUNE IN TUESDAY NIGHT ON ABC TO CHECK OUT YOUR FINAL THREE. FOR CELEBTV, I’M BT.
NOT EVEN A CARTWHEEL OUT OF DESPERATION COULD SAVE NANCY GRACE…
ON DANCING WITH THE STARS’ RESULTS SHOW TUESDAY NIGHT, SHE GOT THE BOOT.
BUT THE SHOW WASN’T ALL ABOUT NANCY’S FALL FROM GRACE…
KENNY MAYNE, JERRY RICE AND LEN GOODMAN BROUGHT THEIR SIGNATURE SILLINESS TO ANOTHER SEGMENT OF --- DANCE CENTER…
IT WAS A NIGHT OF FIRSTS ON DANCING WITH THE STARS…
JR MARTINEZ GETS THE FIRST PERFECT SCORES OF THE SEASON…AND MAKS AND LEN KISS AND MAKE UP.
BUT MAKS AND HOPE’S TWO DANCES COULDN’T EVEN COMPARE TO JR AND KARINA’S…FIRST THEIR WALTZ…
AND THEN CAME THE FIRST PERFECT SCORE OF THE SEASON…
OH, BUT YOU AINT SEEN NOTHIN YET…THE FIVE REMAINING COUPLES HAD TO PERFORM TWO DANCES MONDAY NIGHT, AND THEY ONLY HAD 20 MINUTES TO REHEARSE THE SECOND ONE…NOT THAT JR EVEN NEEDED IT…
BUT NOW BACK TO THAT LOVE FEST…WHAT PROMPTED MAKS TO PLANT ONE ON LEN? THIS…
BUT IF YA BLINKED YA MISSED THIS ONE…
APPARENTLY PINCHING TOM’S BUTT HAS BEEN A TRADITION FOR YEARS ON THE SHOW…BUT IT YA HAVEN’T SEEN IT, IT’S NEW TO YOU…
A FAN FAVORITE GETS THE BOOT ON DANCING WITH THE STARS…
David and Kym, Nancy and Tristan…on this 7th week of competition…etc etc…the couple with the lowest combined scores and therefore leaving tonight is….David and Kym…boos…
WHILE THE AUDIENCE WASN’T HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS, DAVID ARQUETTE SHOWED OFF HIS GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR…
There must be a mistake because this is my show…I came here to get to know more about myself, face my fears… This whole thing has been incredible…I just love all the people I got to know and dance with. This production is top-notch. It’s been an amazing experience, and I’m very grateful.”
MAYBE THE GREAT MOOD HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH JUSTIN BIEBER BEIN IN THE HOUSE, AND SPREADING SOME HOLIDAY CHEER WITH BOYZ 2 MEN…
Singing Fa La La
THEY GUYS PERFORMED THEIR CHRISTMAS COLLAB FA LA LA… BECAUSE YA KNOW, BIEBS’ NEW HOLIDAY RECORD “UNDER THE MISTLETOE – CAME OUT THE SAME DAY.
DESPITE THE DRAMA GOING ON WITH THE KARDASHIAN CLAN, IT WAS ROB’S NIGHT TO SHINE ON DANCING WITH THE STARS…
AND THEN THEY BROUGHT THE BALLROOM TO ITS FEET – AGAIN – DURING THEIR PASO DOBLE DANCE-OFF…
AND ALMOST ALL OF THE KARDASHIANS WERE IN THE AUDIENCE TO REPRESENT EXCEPT FOR THE OBVIOUS – BUT BACKSTAGE ROB DID ADDRESS THE WHITE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM…
“Everybody, obviously, is not in a good mood.” ROB SAID, “But we support anything my sister deals with, and that's all we can do.” TUNE IN TUESDAY NIGHT TO FIND OUT IF ROB WILL MAKE THE CUT.
THINGS ARE DEFINITELY GETTING TENSE IN THE BALLROOM!
Tom says, “Hope and Maks, Chaz and Lacy….on this 6th night of competition and therefore leaving…Chaz and Lacey…”
Brooke says, “Chaz and Lacy, how proud of you of your journey?” Chaz says, “I took so much away from this. This was an amazing journey that really pushed me and showed me I could do so much more than I thought I could.”
“I came on this show because I wanted to show America a different kind of man, and I know that if there was someone like me on TV when I was growing up, my whole life would have been different. I dedicate everything I did to all the people out there like me -- especially the kids and teens who are struggling. You can have a wonderful, great life and be successful and happy.”
BUT CHAZ BONO DIDN’T SAY GOODBYE WITHOUT TELLING THE JUDGES HOW HE REALLY FEELS…
Bruno says, “It was like a cute little penguin trying to being a menacing bird of prey.”
Chaz tearing up, “I’m sick of being called an Ewok, cuddly, dancing with Princess Leia, these comments make me feel like a troll…”
AND THEN THERE WAS THE FALLOUT FROM MAKS’ MONDAY NIGHT MELTDOWN…
Len says, “Maks this is half your fault…been in business for 50 years, maybe it’s time to get out…don’t be disrespectful…Not letting anyone talk to you like that…
Maks says, “With all due respect, this is my show…” Carrie Ann says, “Did he really just say this is my show?
Brooke says, “Just as awkward the second time around…”
ALTHOUGH HE DID APOLOGIZE – SORTA…
Maks says, “One thing I want to apologize for, hand an idea in my head, came out wrong, it’s not my show, part of a very big team, large cast…these guys are amazing, that’s all…”
BUT LEAVE IT TOM, TO GIVE US THE BEST LINE OF THE NIGHT…
Tom says, “Damn, I was going to ask him for a raise.”
