Once again, the WarmTV bloggers elected (begged) my mom to be our Dancing with the Stars correspondent. After each show, she calls me with her report...
Last night's "Dancing with the Stars" featured the Jitterbug and the Waltz, and more bizarre wardrobe choices from Aaron Carter. Plus a Mambo group dance.
Click below to read the recap and predictions for tonight's double elimination.
"Mya and Dmitry did the Jitterbug. In their routine, she came out with a feather duster and he was dressed like a maintenance man, and she was dusting around him and dancing. Len didn't like that and said she dusted around too much. He doesn't like all that extra stuff. But I thought it was cute. They got a 24.
"Melissa and Mark did a Waltz. Bruno and Carrie Ann didn't like it, but Len thought it was good. Mark's mother, who is a champion dancer, came in to try to help Melissa with her posture and dancing, but it must not have helped very much. After it was over, Carrie Ann said 'at least you kept your puppies up.' They got a 20.
"Mark and Lacey did the Jitterbug. He's hyper anyway so the dance had a lot of energy. It was great. The judges loved it. They said that's what a Jitterbug is supposed to be -- full of energy. That was right up his alley. He got a 26.
"Aaron and Karina did the Waltz. Len said it was Aaron's best dance. I wasn't that crazy about it. And I don't know who is dressing him, but he needs somebody else. He was wearing a velveteen smoking jacket with satin lapels and this shirt that had ... I swear, the collar looked like it was 12 inches high. It was not very manly. They got a 25.
"Michael and Anna did the Waltz. I thought it was good. Len liked it too. But Michael is just not a great dancer. He got a 20.
"Kelly and Louis did the Jitterbug. It was kind of cute but it didn't have a lot of energy. Len said it was like a blueberry muffin without the blueberries. She got 20.
"Louis and Chelsea also did the Jitterbug. There was a lot of jumping around and flipping, which made it better for him because when he actually dances he just sort of steps around. It would have been pretty good -- except he dropped her twice. He got a 21.
"Joanna and Derek did the Waltz. I'll have to say it was a very good Waltz. The judges all liked it and she got a 26.
"Donny and Kym did the Jitterbug. It was good but he made some mistakes and missteps. He got a 24.
"Then there was a group dance - the Mamba. You know how years ago they'd have dance contests where the dancers would wear a number on their back, and someone would tap their shoulder when they were eliminated? They did that and the first one eliminated got two points added to their score -- Michael and Anna. The last couple eliminated -- Joanna and Derek -- got ten points added to their score.
"Tonight is double-elimination. The lowest person is eliminated and then the next two lowest have a dance-off and the judges decide. So the fans can't save them this time. That should be interesting. Everyone is practicing an elimination dance too, just in case. And Taylor Swift will be the guest performer.
"I'm thinking Michael Irvin is going home and then I think Aaron Carter and Louis Vito will be in the bottom two. I'm saying Aaron because he's been in the bottom two the past two weeks, and I'm saying Louis because he just plain can't dance.
"But you never know, because of those fans!"
