Dancing with the Stars Debuts

Well I hope all of you people watched or at least TiVo’d the season premiere of Dancing with the Stars. Once again it’s going to be the show to watch. I’m warning you now – watch it, or else be left behind. As I mentioned briefly last night, I was SO excited to see Aaron Echolls (Harry Hamlin) and Nick Lachey in the audience.

Although that wrestling chic Stacy was AWESOME, I’m still sticking with my Week One picks of Lisa Rinna and/or Drew Lachey to take it all.

For those of you who missed the premiere ep, our friends over at the utterly fabulous Tabloid Whore partnered with Give Me My Remote to provide you with a great recap. Thanks again Tabloid Whore…with my busy work schedule, I owe you one.

Alright, so I’m going to try my best and do some quick recaps each week for Dancing With The Stars. It’s a fun show and definitely worth talking about. Who’s your favorite?

George Hamilton – I swear the man looks like Warren Beatty now. Ya know, he was a bit stiff, but the poor guy had an arthritic knee and 4 broken ribs from falling off a yacht. He made me laugh and I think he was cute.

Lisa Rinna – Dear God, please, let me have a body like Lisa Rinna when I am 42!! I love Lisa and her crazy lips. I see her all the time at the supermarket and girlfriend does her own food shopping, you gotta love that. I thought she did a great job, very elegant and smooth. Her husband Harry Hamlin was adorable cheering for her in the audience.

Kenny Mayne – Oh dear Kenny. I am a sucker for a funny personality. He wasn’t the best dancer, but at least he moved quickly and cracked me up. His looks and awkwardness remind me of my friends husband, so I automatically like him.

Stacy Keibler – She was really good and had this crazy ass back arch that hurt to watch, but holy moly, give me those abs of hers. Perfection! The thing is, I’m not a wrestling fan and don’t know who she is, so It’s hard for me to care a lot about her.

Drew Lachey – The boy did not disappoint. I’ve had my $$$ on him since I heard he was going to be on the show. Damn, aside from being adorable like his brother Nick (who we saw in the audience, woo hoo!) he is a really good dancer. Ya know what they say, if you’re good on the dancefloor, you’re good in the sack!

Tia Carrere – Safe, good, this season’s Trista Rehn.

Master P – Oh wow. It hurts how bad I feel for him. Possibly the most uncomfortable performance in the history of the series. You gotta love the guy for stepping in for his son Romeo after he was injured, but the man was stiff as a board. I’m sure he has got some moves, but I could just feel through the television set how uncomfortable he was and I don’t think he wanted to be there. It was clear he felt his gangsta cred was being majorly threatened. Hey, if tough guys like Evander Holyfield (last season) and Jerry Rice can go up there and try their best, so can Master P!

Giselle Fernandez – I’m sorry, at this point I zoned out. She was fine.

Jerry Rice – Oh my God, I am not a football fan, but I love this man. He has the sweetest face and is just adorable. I just want to give him hugs, hugs, hugs. I think he did a good job and probably will improve a lot as the show progresses. Plus, he can swing those hips like there is no tomorrow! (Insert Drew Lachey dancefloor comment here).

Tatum O’Neal – Ohhh I had been waiting for Tatum the whole night. Girlfriend has had her problems in life y’know. She was the wild card. Ok, my friends can testify that I am the biggest wimp when it comes to motion sickness, but what kind of fool gets nauseous during dance spins? She did a nice job with her dance and I love her for getting out there and giving it her all. But Between you and me, I just kept on looking for stash to fall out of her pocket. Sorry.

My faves this week: Drew Lachey & Lisa Rinna. Sadly, I think Master P is dunzo.
