Dancing With the Stars Recap: Will the Contenders Please Stand Up?

Dancing With the Stars’ 25th season is in full swing on ABC, and there have already been some surprising results to show for it.


Would this week yield more of the same?


This week, the contestants only had to perform a single routine, as opposed to the two they had to learn and perfect a week ago.



The task? A previously unlearned dance to reflect their favorite guilty pleasure, in non-traditional styles like Charleston and jazz.


Let’s break down the performances and the scores. 


Drew Scott and Emma Slater – Argentine Tango – “Red Right Hand” by Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds


Drew Scott has struggled throughout the first few weeks of Dancing with the Stars Season 25, and it was a pleasant surprise to watch the improvement during his performance with Emma this week. 


Drew dressed as a sexy detective, while Emma went with the look of a witness. It worked, and the judges were glad there was a noticeable improvement with the duo. 


Score: 23/30


Derek Fisher and Sharna Burgess – Cha-Cha – “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” by DJ Jazzy Jeff and Will Smith


Like Drew, Derek has struggled to adapt to the routines, so he took extra care to get to grips with everything before the big performance. Being a fan of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, he found himself dancing along with Sharna to the main track from the iconic series. 


He and Sharna dressed up in ’90s clothing and looked the part. The judges noted there was an improvement, but there was still a lot of room for some more. 


Score: 21/30



Victoria Arlen and Val Chmerkovskiy – Quickstep – “Tubthumping” by Chumbawamba


Victoria and Val have been middle of the pack throughout the first few episodes, and this number did nothing to set them apart. There was meaning to the dance and the song choice. 


It was about bullying in high school and how one person overcame it. There was nothing spectacular about the performance, but there was also nothing exactly horrible about it either. 


Score: 22/30


Vanessa Lachey and Alan Bersten – Jazz – “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” by Cyndi Lauper


Unfortunately, Maks was out of the competition for the evening due to a personal matter, and it allowed Alan to step in for some dancing fun. The quality dips when there are changes to a strong duo.


Their routine was exciting and a welcome surprise considering the speedy switcheroo. Despite some middling feedback, it was still a successful performance. 


Score 23/30



Nikki Bella and Artem Chigvintsev – Viennese Waltz – “Love on the Brain” by Rihanna T  


Nikki is a huge fan of romance novels, so we’re kind of surprised she’s a fan of 50 Shades of Grey because what’s romantic about the relationship between Anastasia and Christian? 


They went with a risky performance that was not one we would normally expect from the show, but the judges are all for embracing change. That’s why Len has been giving out some positive feedback this season. 


Score: 21/30


Frankie Muniz and Witney Carson – Samba – “It’s Gonna Be Me” by *NSYNC


Meh. That’s the best way to sum up this performance. Frankie has been a clear frontrunner since the beginning, but this performance seemed way too ambitious to keep it grounded. 


His confidence seemed to take a hit throughout the routine, and that was not a good thing. 


Score: 21/30



Lindsey Stirling and Mark Ballas – Jive – “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go” by Wham!


Okay, so this was the big shocker of the night. Dealing with a breakup is not fun, and Mark helped Lindsay through it with a wonderfully choreographed dance routine that got the judges talking for all the right reasons. 


More like this one, you guys!


Score: 27/30


Sasha Pieterse and Gleb Savchenko – Jazz – “I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch)” by The Four Tops


It was one step forward and two steps back for this duo. They went for far too many props for the whole baking guilty pleasure angle, and it hindered their performance. 


The judges took notice, and they raced back down the leaderboard. Sigh. 


Score: 19/30



Nick Lachey and Peta Murgatroyd – Jazz – “Jump (For My Love)” by The Pointer Sisters


Being a fan of romantic comedies, this duo went for a surprisingly romantic performance, and they utilized their skills very well, but it was not enough to gain more traction in the scoring department. 


Score: 21/30


Terrell Owens and Cheryl Burke – Salsa – “The Breaks” by Kurtis Blow


So, Terrell felt bad about liking breakdancing, so he decided to use it in his salsa with Cheryl, and it helped the duo garner their best results of the season. See! Changing things up works. 


Score: 21/30



Jordan Fisher and Lindsay Arnold – Charleston – “The Glory Days” by Michael Giacchino


This performance was colorful, and you can thank Jordan’s love of comic books for that one. It was great, and the sync was amazing. Jordan and Lindsay are so great together that if they don’t make it to the final, we will be very mad. 


Score: 25/30


In a true stunner, there was no elimination, so everyone gets to dance another day!


What do you think of the scores?


Sound off below!


Dancing with the Stars continues next Monday on ABC!

Dancing with the Stars Results: Who Was Sent Packing?

Dancing with the Stars served up another big elimination during Latin Night, an episode filled with routines that were just too hot to handle. 


With Barbara Corcoran and Keo Motsepe already eliminated, which other couple lost their place in the competition during week two? 



And was it one of those shocking eliminations that nobody saw coming, or was this just a matter of time for an overmatched tandem?


Let’s break down the steamy performances and and find out …


Nikki Bella and Artem Chigvintsev – Samba – “Despacito” by Luis Fonsi feat. Daddy Yankee


Nikki improved a lot on Monday’s episode of the series, but then she went and squandered that momentum when she kept cackling whenever she tried to practice for the sexy routine. 


We’ve all had a case of the giggles, but did she not know how high the stakes were for this competition? The performance was a little too slow, and it showed that Nikki is not that great of a dancer. 


Score: 18/30


Victoria Arlen and Val Chmerkovskiy – Rumba – “Easy” by Sky Ferreira


Victoria was nervous when she tried to prepare for this routine with Val. The performance was okay, but Len said that it was not all that and he wanted to see some more from them. We have to agree. 


At least Victoria can take solace in the fact that Taylor Swift sent her a gift for her birthday. 


Score: 20/30



Derek Fisher and Sharna Burgess – Paso Doblé – “Diablo Rojo” by Rodrigo y Gabriela


Sharna is the Queen of raunchy routines, so it was evident this was one she and Derek should be able to get some traction with. Derek was upset about them landing in the bottom two. 


Everyone was glad that Derek was taking the feedback on board, but it never really reflected in his score. 


Score: 19/30


Sasha Pieterse and Gleb Savchenko – Samba – “Most Girls” by Hailee Steinfeld


Sasha opened up about some trolls who came out of the woodwork when she gained weight due to PCOS. It helped her channel all of her heartbreak from the ordeal into her performance. 


Who would have thought that Sasha would be one of the best performers of the night after her premiere week dud?


Score: 22/30



Nick Lachey and Peta Murgatroyd Argentine – Tango – “She’s a Lady” by Lion Babe


Nick has not been performing as well as we expected him to do on the show so far, but tonight he proved that he could improve if given the time. 


The judges were not entirely impressed, with Carrie Ann glad about the progression, but Len continued to play the villain role by essentially calling it trash. 


Score: 19/30


Jordan Fisher and Lindsay Arnold – Samba – “Mi Gente” by J. Balvin and Willy William


Going into the competition, it was clear that Jordan knew a lot about the world of dance. From stints on Grease live to Disney spectaculars, he had a huge advantage. 


The performance was flawless. They looked confident together and were genuinely believable as a couple. 


Score: 24/30



Drew Scott and Emma Slater – Rumba – “Lights Down Low” by Max feat. gnash


Who does not like to have a tan? That was Emma’s question to Drew before the routine, so she decided to spray him down, and it worked. He looked soooo much better. 


It gave Drew more confidence, and the judges even agreed that there was some improvement, so it was a win-win!


Score: 21/30


Debbie Gibson and Alan Bersten Argentine – Tango – “Havana” by Camila Cabello feat. Young Thug


Debbie Gibson has been essentially at the bottom of the pack with Barbara since last week, but she proved she has what it takes to be taken seriously. 


Her performance with Alan was her best yet, but the judges felt Debbie was not making the best use of her body. 


Score: 21/30



Vanessa Lachey and Maksim Chmerkovskiy – Salsa – “Instruction” by Jax Jones feat. Demi Lovato and Stefflon Don


Vanessa is one of the best competitors this season. Her dancing has always been a cut above Nick’s, so it’s a given that she will, make it further than him. 


Even Len was impressed, and that’s not something that happens every day, you guys!


Score: 23/30


Terrell Owens and Cheryl Burke – Samba – “Hot in Herre” by Nelly  


Terrelll initially appeared as the novelty act of the season, but somewhere along the way, he improved and his now middle of the pack. That’s a great change from one week ago. 


The judges were all very positive about his improvement. 


Score: 19/30



Lindsey Stirling and Mark Ballas – Salsa – “Mani Picao” by Ricky Campanelli


Lindsey continued to go from strength to strength in her attempt to own the floor, and Mark was clearly loving the whole thing. They were electric, and the pair are probably going to make it far. 


Score: 24/30


Frankie Muniz and Witney Carson Cha-Cha, “Perm” by Bruno Mars


If you told us a few weeks back that Frankie Muniz would be a frontrunner on Dancing with the Stars, we would have laughed in your face. 


He knew what he needed to do to get the judges talking and they LOVED it. He is a great entertainer. 


Score: 25/30


After the performances, it was time to send another contestant packing. Nick and Peta and Debbie and Alan were in the bottom two couples. 



In a true shocker, Debbie and Alan were let go from the competition. Say it ain’t so!


What did you think of the elimination?

Dancing With the Stars Results: The First One Out

The first Dancing With the Stars results show of the fall is in the books, and the first celebrity of the Season 25 cast has been ousted.


Who lived to tango another day, and who exited stage left?



Following last Monday’s Dancing With the Stars premiere, Shark Tank star Barbara Corcoran seemed like a likely candidate for elimination.


Frankie Muniz was also at risk, while other stars such as Derek Fisher were likely sweating bullets as well following their initial scores.


Let’s break down the routines and scores briefly …


Debbie Gibson and Alan Bersten – Quickstep – “This Is My Time” by Amy Stroup


Debbie knew she needed to adapt pretty quickly if she had any hope of staying in the competition, and it worked. The judges immediately noticed an improvement in her performance with Alan.


Score: 20/30 


Nikki Bella and Artem Chigvintsev – Waltz – “Come Away With Me” by Norah Jones


Nikki and Artem’s performance was not the best of the night, but it was also not the worst. They do play off each other very well, but the dance number could have been a bit more exciting. 


It came off very disjointed in the end, and that’s probably not going to bode well down the line. It’s time to become pros at dancing. 


Score: 21/30


Lindsey Stirling and Mark Ballas – Quickstep – “Swing Step” by Jurassic 5


Let’s just say if this were a competition for the best costumes per couple, we would definitely be handing Lindsey and Mark the win. The overall performance was decent, but breaking hold was detrimental to their performance. 


Score: 21/30



Barbara Corcoran and Keo Motsepe – Tango – “Whatever Lola Wants” by Sarah Vaughan


Barbara was livid about the rough time she had last week with the judges and opted to find a way to stay in the competition. Despite a much better performance, it was not enough to separate this duo from the pack. 


Score: 17/30


Nick Lachey and Peta Murgatroyd – Foxtrot “Mandy” by Barry Manilow


Okay, so Nick finally started to dance, but he continued to seem very wooden. We know he’s not someone who gets embarrassed very easily because he stuck with Jessica Simpson throughout her big tuna incident. 


The judges agree that the duo show improvement, but will that be enough to save them?


Score: 19/30


Drew Scott and Emma Slater – Quickstep – “Sing, Sing, Sing” by Louis Prima  


The judges were not ready to give Drew a free pass quite yet, so they were very critical of his performance. One of the biggest complaints was about his limbs flying about. 


Emma, however, continued to get good praise, which makes sense because she’s a dancing pro. 


Score: 20/30.



Vanessa Lachey and Maksim Chmerkovskiy – Foxtrot – “Hit Me With a Hot Note” by Tami Tappan Damiano


Nick’s wife, Vanessa continued to flourish under the influence of Maks. Vanessa knows what is expected of her and that’s why her first two performances with Maks have been such a hit. 


Score: 24/30


Frankie Muniz and Witney Carson – Tango – “Whatever It Takes” by Imagine Dragons


Could Frankie Muniz be a surprising winner at the end of the season? You can tell he is loving what he’s doing and that’s a good thing because viewers are also enjoying it. Everything about it was perfect, and the duo has a lot of chemistry. 


Score: 23/30


Terrell Owens and Cheryl Burke – Foxtrot – “Pillow Talk” by ZAYN


With the middling comments last week, Cheryl knew it was time to make some changes to right the ship. It was a much better performance, and Carrie Ann even pointed out that Terrell seems more into it this week. 


That’s what happens when Cheryl Burke puts her foot down. Good for her. 


Score: 20/30



Sasha Pieterse and Gleb Savchenko – Viennese Waltz – “I’m Going Down” by Rose Royce


Who would have thought that Sasha would be the surprise 180 of the season? After an extremely wooden performance last week, she made her way to the floor and absolutely killed it. Carrie Ann was firmly on Team Sasha, while Len had some complaints. 


Score: 23/30


Victoria Arlen and Val Chmerkovskiy – Tango – “Look What You Made Me Do” by Taylor Swift


Victoria continued to defy the odds and even got to dance along to a Taylor Swift song. Out of everyone, Victoria has the most heartbreaking story, and it’s clear she wants to be in the competition. The judges liked how on point the performance was. 


Score: 24/30



Derek Fisher and Sharna Burgess-  Foxtrot – “Hallelujah, I Love Her So” by Ray Charles


This duo continued to be a problem, and everyone seemed to agree that Derek was the issue. He needed to learn to move around the ballroom and stop relying on Sharna for everything. 


Jordan Fisher and Lindsay Arnold – Viennese Waltz – “Count on Me” by Judah Kelly


Jordan already emerged as a frontrunner last week with Lindsay, and thankfully, they continued to prove it was not just luck that they got to the top of the board. 


They are definitely ones to watch as the season progresses. 


Terrell and Cheryl and Barbara and Keo were the two unlucky couples who sat at the bottom of the leaderboard. In the end, Barbara and Keo were sent packing. 



What do you think of the elimination?

Dancing with the Stars Season 25: Who Will Win?


Dancing with the Stars Season 25 is a go, and we"ve rounded up all of the competitors below for you. 


The reason? To benchmark them together and run down which ones are most likely to emerge with the coveted Mirrorball Trophy. 


Read below to get up to speed on our first thoughts based on the first episode of Dancing with the Stars Season 25!




13. Barbara Corcoran with Keo Motsepe


Barbara corcoran with keo motsepe

Barbara did not seem like she had any intention of winning. Instead, she ogled her partner, Keo Motsepe. As a result, they scored a paltry 14/20.



12. Terrell Owens and Cheryl Burke


Terrell owens and cheryl burke

Terrell has met his match on Dancing with the Stars. He and Cheryl were fun together, but there was a complete lack of technique. They will need to improve quickly if they have any hope of surviving. 15/30 is not a good start.



11. Debbie Gibson and Alan Bersten


Debbie gibson and alan bersten

Debbie had a poignant story and wants Dancing with the Stars to be her big comeback story. Unfortunately, her dancing was not exactly up to scratch. She scored 17/30, and will likely face an early exit.



10. Nick Lachey and Peta Murgatroyd


Nick lachey and peta murgatroyd

Okay, so Nick Lachey said he would never take part on the show, and here he is all these years later. He and Peta secured a middling score of 18. There is most definitely room for improvement. Fun fact: His brother won Season 2 many years ago. Could he adapt quickly and rise up the ranks? Stranger things have happened.



9. Drew Scott and Emma Slater


Drew scott and emma slater

Drew may be good at working in property, but his dance skills are just not all that. His first performance was filled with critical errors that meant he and Emma managed just 16/30.



8. Sasha Pieterse and Gleb Savchenko


Sasha pieterse and gleb savchenko

Sasha struggled with nerves and her performance suffered in the process. Unless she manages to overcome them in the coming weeks, she will face an early exit from the game. A score of 18 is not catastrophic, but it means she has very little room to fall.

Dancing with the Stars Recap: We"re Back in the Ballroom!

Season 25 of Dancing with the Stars is officially underway as a new crop of celebrities (term used loosely) vies for ballroom immortality.


Or at least a shiny Mirrorball trophy. Close enough.



It feels like just weeks ago we crowned the previous winner, but that’s expected with shows that air two cycles per year. 


Let’s handicap the performances and establish who the early frontrunners are. 


First up was Terrell Owens and Cheryl Burke, who went with the Cha-Cha to “Aint Too Proud to Beg” by The Temptations. It was a fun enough routine to start off the new season, but it was not all that. 


Len noted that it was a good one, but he thought Terrell needed to bring it in the coming weeks if he wanted to remain in the competition. 


The duo scored 15/30. 



Next up was Debbie Gibson and Alan Bersten who danced along to “Lost in Your Eyes” by Debbie Gibson. Debbie was using Dancing with the Stars as her big comeback, and the first dance certainly made it seem like she could be on to a winner. 


Working with Alan should help her go from strength to strength and become a force to be reckoned with. They scored 17/30. 


Pretty Little Liars grad, Sasha Pieterse, joined forces with Gleb Savchenko and they danced along to “Like That” by Fleur East. It was a bit all over the place, and that was primarily down to Sasha’s nerves. 


We get it, it’s difficult to perform live on TV, but Pieterse will need to adapt quickly if she wants to make it far. A little confidence boost will go a long way in her case. 



Len picked up on the nerves and pointed it out, so it will be interesting to see how she performs down the line. They scored 18/30. 


Drew Scott and Emma Slater went with “Our House” by Madness. There was a lot riding on the performance: Drew promised Emma that he would remodel her kitchen if they won the competition. 


The dance was not a great start, and it was evident there was a lot of work to do in order to become a force. They scored 16/30. 


Barbara Corcoran and Keo Motsepe went with “Money Make” by Ludacris feat. Pharrell. Their routine was not a good one, and it was evident Barbara preferred to flirt with Keo as opposed to practicing. 


That’s not a good thing to do, especially when America’s watchful eye is on you during a big performance. To the surprise of nobody, they scored 14/30. 



Jordan Fisher being paired up with Lindsay Arnold was always going to be a good thing. They danced to “There’s Nothing Holding Me Back” by Shawn Mendes. 


It confirmed what we all thought: Jordan’s experience was going to work in his favor. He danced with confidence and knew exactly what was expected of him. 


They scored 22/30. 


Nick Lachey revealed in the past that he would never do Dancing with the Stars. What a difference a few years make. He joined forces with Peta Murgatroyd, and they performed to “Come Get It Bae” by Pharrell Williams. 


Considering how the odds were stacked against them, Nick performed well, and the judges awarded them with 18/30. 



When it came to Nick’s wife, Vanessa Lachey and Maks Chmerkovskiy, the big question was who got the most points. 


Vanessa and Maks danced along to “Woman” by Kesha fear. The Dap-Kings Horns. It was a resounding success. Vanessa knew what was expected of her and delivered in a big way. 


The judges enjoyed the performance and awarded them 21/30, so that was a great start. 


Frankie Muniz made his big return to the spotlight after several years away, and we did not expect the big event to take place during Dancing with the Stars. 



He partnered up with Witney Carson, and they danced to “Sign of the Times” by Harry Styles. It was another solid performance and proved that Frankie was talented. 


They scored 19/30. 


Nikki Bella and Artem Chigvintsev turned in an energetic performance of “So What!” by Pink. Nikki was confident throughout the whole performance. 


They scored 20/30. 


NBA legend Derek Fisher joined forces with Sharna Burgess to perform “Basketball” by Kurtis Blow. Being partnered with Sharna was always going to be a positive. 



Even with some missteps, they still managed to turn in 18/30, which is a solid result for a first performance. 


Victoria Arlen partnered up with Valentin Chmerkovskiy, and they went with “Born Ready” by Disco Fries feat. Hope Murphy. 


It was evident Victoria was having a GREAT time, and that helped the performance. They scored 19/30. 


The final performance of the night was Lindsay Stirling and Mark Ballas. They performed “Don’t Worry” by Madcon. The pair had a lot of chemistry. 


Lindsay worked very well with Mark, and it became apparent that these two could be ones to watch. They scored 22/30. 


Who will be eliminated? Find out next Monday at 8/7c on ABC!

With a dynamic cast, the season looks set to be one of the most cutthroat to date.

Who do you think is the favorite?

Kylie Jenner Birthday Party: Friends, Family, Dancing, Big-Butted Ice Sculpture!

Today"s a very important birthday! But, in addition to being the birthday of Babylon 5 actress Claudia Christian, did you know that it"s also Kylie Jenner"s birthday? She turns 20 today.


It"s been a big year for Kylie. Life of Kylie is airing, she"s truly Tyga-free for the first time in what feels like centuries, and Kylie Cosmetics may be a billion-dollar business within a few short years.


But that doesn"t mean that turning 20 isn"t a big deal. Kylie had a pretty sizable party that featured family and friends … and a comically bootylicious ice sculpture. Don"t worry — there"s video.



Kylie Jenner is the youngest of Kris Jenner"s children.


She"s also on track to become the most successful.


Kris Jenner is very proud of the fact that Kylie"s makeup business, Kylie Cosmetics, on on track to be worth about a billion dollars by the time that Kylie is 25.


Reading that might make your eyes twitch, but Kylie has created a powerful brand and she"s used it to market her products to great effect.


Between that and her reality appearances — on Keeping Up With The Kardashians for a decade and now on Life of Kylie — Kylie Jenner deserves to party for her birthday.


Even if that party is the night before, featuring family and friends.


First, of course, Kylie took some time to lounge by the pool at her mother"s house, wearing a nude bikini.


There are, of course, pictures.



She looks incredible, obviously.


She"s Kylie.


But she"s also not doing anything to quash those boob job rumors.


If she did get a boob job, that"s totally her business — but by the nature of her job and lifestyle, people are going to speculate.


Especially when she"s so, so much bustier than she was this time last year.


It could be puberty doing some last minute work on her figure, but … it"s easy to believe that she"s had more work done.


She may have just wanted to make her bust match her legendary butt, you know?


Speaking of her Kardashian derriere… we mentioned that there was an unusual piece of frozen art at this party.


Are you ready to see the bootytastic ice sculpture?


Of course you are.



Kylie yelled "Jordyn, what is this?!" when she saw it.


That"s a great question.


We don"t know if this is something that people can just order of if it was custom made for Kylie"s party.


But, honestly, it shows such a great sense of humor.


Kylie sharing it with fans via Snapchat was a great choice, because it"s absolutely ridiculous and more people should see it.


Clearly Kylie"s ex wouldn"t appreciate it, since the ice sculpture doesn"t have any feet and Tyga has a foot fetish.



The video below shows Kylie getting surprised and saying hello to Travis Scott.


But you"ll also see Kylie herself, plus Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian dancing … sort of awkwardly.


(I find Kris Jenner to be immeasurably endearing, so she can dance however she likes)


Jonathan Cheban is even there, and honestly seeing Kim"s bestie makes us laugh — because we"ll always remember that time that Martha Stewart shaded him on Twitter.


We imagine that Kylie"s going to have her own, youth-oriented celebration tonight.


In the mean time, though, enjoy some of the video that Kylie shared over Snapchat:

DeMario Jackson: Will He Go Dancing with the Stars?

DeMario Jackson will no longer attempt to win over single women on reality television.


But might the former Bachelorette suitor soon be trying to win over viewers on… well… reality television?



According to TMZ, Dancing with the Stars producers have reached out to Jackson’s publicist and asked whether the ABC personality would like to join next season’s cast.


It makes perfect sense, really.


Dancing with the Stars often selects a contestant or two each season from its crop of ex-Bachelor or Bachelorette mainstays… and Jackson has been at the center of possibly the franchise’s biggest scandal in history.


Last month, DeMario and Corinne Olympios drank a lot of alcohol and shed a lot of clothing during an early season hook-up on Bachelor in Paradise.


After an employee on set wondered aloud whether Olympios was sober enough to give Jackson consent, the show shut down production and sent all cast members home.


The production company proceeded to conduct an internal investigation.



This controversy took place just a few weeks after Rachel Lindsay kicked Jackson off The Bachelorette because she discovered he had a girlfriend while trying to woo her.


After about two weeks of online rumors and accusations hurled his way, Jackson sat down for an interview in which he detailed all the X-rated action that went down between himself and Corinne.


Shortly thereafter, Warner Bros. concluded its investigation and determined that no sexual misconduct was committed by anyone on the series.


The company also announced that Bachelor in Paradise Season 4 will air in its entirety this summer.


Jackson, however, will only appear on the reunion special. He will not return to the program as a full-on cast member.



The 30-year-old reality star told TMZ a few days ago that he’d be thrilled to follow Bachelor Nation stars such as Nick Viall and Chris Soules on Dancing with the Stars.


Moreover, he already has a song in mind.


“I would murder Despacito on that show,” Jackson said, referring to Luis Fonsi, Daddy Yankee and Justin Bieber’s hit single, adding:


“You people don’t understand. I’m, like, a black, Latin, salsa dancer.”


Among other Q-Listers ABC is considering for the new season of Dancing with the Stars?


Disgraced White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer.


We wish we were kidding. But we’re not.

Sean Spicer: Being COURTED for Dancing With The Stars! (Please Let This Happen!)

It looks like Dancing With The Stars might be about to get a whole lot … Spicey-er.


We’re not even a little sorry for phrasing it that way, because seriously, how else are we supposed to express our excitement — because DWTS is actively courting Sean Spicer.


We hope that the folks at ABC aren’t too attached to their mini-fridges, though.



Spicer resigned from the White House because he “strongly opposed the hiring of Anthony Scaramucci.”


(He probably just wanted to jump ship from a toxic work environment before the whole administration collapses under the weight of incompetence and lies)


Sean Spicer had hoped to go into the White House with integrity, declining to comment when necessary but always being truthful.


Instead, on his very first day after Trump’s inauguration, Spicer was sent out to lie about the crowd size at Trump’s inauguration.


(Even though there were pictures!)


It was all downhill from there, basically.


Spicer was constantly used less to answer reporter’s questions and more to reiterate or defend Trump’s tweets or nonsensical statements.


He was a target of ridicule, not only from comedians (we will always treasure Melissa McCarthy’s portrayal of him) but also from within the White House.


When the Trump Administration broke decades of precedent and banned video recordings by the White House press corps, Steve Bannon joked that it was because Sean Spicer was “too fat.”


Classy.


Mind you, this joke came from Steve Bannon, who looks like the cartoonish personification of liver disease and also like every single male NPC in every The Witcher game.


Still, though, that’s a toxic work environment and just a really, truly terrible job to have.


Sean Spicer may not be a good or ethical person, but we almost felt relieved on his behalf when he announced his resignation.



But now Sean Spicer’s newly “single,” as it were, and being courted by plenty of suitors.


Namely, networks that would love to have him as a commentator — if they think that he’ll be sufficiently entertaining for people to tune in.


And while Zack Braff tweeted out a joke that he looked forward to seeing Sean Spicer on Dancing With The Stars … it’s actually not that much of a joke, according to Page Six.


In fact, they report that Sean Spicer is being courted for Dancing With The Stars.


“That has legs,” their source said of the rumor.



If you think that this is somehow beneath the dignity of Sean Spicer … well, look at his last job.


But also, Sean Spicer has worn a bunny costume before for the White House’s Easter celebration (under the Bush Administration).


Just a few months ago, he hid behind some bushes on the White House in the hopes of not being seen by reporters.


(That didn’t work out so well)


He’s repeated blatant lies to the press just to soothe Trump’s ego.


In an effort to condemn Assad, Spicey accidentally made some wildly controversial (and false) statements that seemed to almost praise Hitler.


He also stole a mini-fridge from a White House staffer’s office after-hours, walking it back to his own office, because he didn’t want to eat in the commissary and no one would give him a mini-fridge of his own.


His career has been full of indignities.


Dancing With The Stars, at least, is supposed to be a little ridiculous.


And let’s not forget that former Texas Governor and (somehow) current Energy Secretary Rick Perry went on Dancing With The Stars after losing the primaries last year.


It turned out that he isn’t much better at dancing than he is at remembering the names of three government departments that he wanted to get rid of, as he was the second contestant to be eliminated on the show.


But if a current member of Trump’s cabinet was on the show so very recently, it’s easy to see Sean Spicer stepping up.


(Especially if they offer him enough money)



Neither ABC nor Sean Spicer have commented yet on the story.


But this would be a good move for Sean.


He’ll want to distance his brand as far as possible from Trump.


Even if he doesn’t want to come accross as “disloyal” to the man who thinks that loyalty is a one-way street that always leads to him, Spicey can create some distance by doing something endearing an apolitical.


Nancy Grace temporarily improved her public image as an accusatory firebrand when she appeared on Dancing With The Stars.


And we all remember Nancy Grace’s nip-slip, whether we want to or not.


We’re not saying that some dance moves and a wardrobe malfunction are all that it will take to redeem Sean Spicer in the public eye for his role within the Trump Administration.


But … it might be a start.


Unless, of course, he decides to just disappear completely from public life.


But that would be such a waste.

Twitter Begs ABC to Put Dirty Dancing Remake in a Corner


On Wednesday night, ABC aired an updated version of the classic movie Dirty Dancing.


No one really knows why.


It starred Abigail Breslin in the role made famous on the big screen by Jennifer Grey and Colt Prattes in the role previously played by Patrick Swayze… and it was met with universal disdain by every single person who tuned in for it.


More or less, that is.


Scroll down for a summary of Twitter reaction to the Dirty Dancing remake and then let"s never talk about it again. Let"s go ahead and put this awful film in the corner, if you will…
