Crossing the Blues

























Dancing with the Stars is currently ranked number one in America by TV Guide. Its seventh season just launched September 22, 2008 on ABC. It is broadcast live from CBS Television City in Los Angeles from Studio 46. The reason the show has been so successful is because of the celebrities. We all want to see if Hollywood’s finest can keep up. With Comcast cable tv you can even watch each episode as it airs.

Each individual celebrity is paired up with a professional ball room dancer. They are then trained by the dancer for weekly performances live in front of America. It’s pretty fun to watch if you ask me. Where else am I going to see the celebs busting their moves?

I guess the main reason I like the show so much is because of the variety of dancers chosen. More notable celebrities that have appeared on the show since its commencement are Emmitt Smith, Apolo Anton Ohno, Mario Lopez, Jason Taylor, Shannon Elizabeth, Kristi Yamaguchi and Kim Kardashian. As a football fanatic, I really got in to the show after Emmitt Smith won season three! I couldn’t believe it! The retired Hall of Fame running back for the Dallas Cowboys lit up the screen with dance moves of all kind.

The performers are required to show off their skills with a new dance each week. From Salsa to the Tango, Dancing with the Stars packs everything in. It’s 2008 and we want reality shows with hot chicks. The seventh season has been a blast with Kim Kardashian and Brooke Burke! Too bad that Kim was the third to get voted off, she’s way hot. Brooke’s still alive and representing!

I am actually really impressed with some of the moves Super Bowl Champion Warren Sapp has been busting out. He’s got to be like 300+ pounds and still in the mix! However, it looks like Brooke Burke has a commanding lead. It’s very exciting how the contestants can jump around from being at the top to getting eliminated! Not only do the judges vote, but the fact that the viewers can involved is great.

It’s got be fun for the celebs to get out there all dressed up. They look really good. I just watched Brooke Burke do the Tango and MAN she’s hot! Her dress was deep red and decked out with rhinestones. All about it!

Can I just say, the training has got to be so time consuming for these athletes and celebrities. They have to train all week and really nail their dance performance. It must be a fulltime job for these remaining dancers. Look, do yourself a favor and tune in. The show airs Mondays and Tuesdays on ABC. Monday is the dance show and Tuesday is for the results. With both shows getting an average of about 19 million viewers, you should definitely join in. You can even stream episodes online using Comcast internet.
