Two hour premiere tonight! Anyone have a pre-show favorite? It will be interesting to see how the public accepts (or rejects) Heather Mills. Too many Beatles/Wings fans out there that may dispise her for the nasty divorce demands from Paul. Good Morning America had a peak at rehersals, and John Ratzenberger (Cliff from Cheers) actually has a sense of rhythm! He may be this year's Jerry Springer.
Here's the list of teams : Billy Ray Cyrus & Karina Smirnoff (last season's runner-up with Mario Lopez) Heather Mills & Jonathan Roberts (last paired with Rachel Hunter) Apolo Anton Ohno & Julianne Hough (newcomer) Joey Fatone & Kym Johnson (last paired with Jerry Springer) Ian Ziering & Cheryl Burke (two time champion) Shandi Finnessey & Brian Fortuna (newcomer) Paulina Porizkova & Alec Mazo (season 1 champ with Kelly Monaco) Laila Ali & Maksim Chmerkovskly (last paired with Willa Ford) John Ratzenberger & Edyta Sliwinska (last paired with Joey Lawrence) Leeza Gibbons & Tony Dovolani (last paired with Sara Evans) Clyde Drexler & Elena Grinenko (last paired with Tucker Carlson)
Re: Dancing with the Stars III I agree...I'm a huge Paul McCartney/Beatles/Wings fan...well, I was raised to know nothing else :lol: and I think that she'll have trouble just because of that.
Me too!!! And I think anyone paired with Cheryl Burke has a bit of an edge in that she obvioulsy has what it taks to win.
Last night's show was better. And I was actually able to get through six times to vote! It will be interesting to see who goes home tonight - I'm thinking Shandi will be gone as she is the least known of all the contestants. Billy Ray may have impressed the judges enough to stick around another week.
Twice each for Laila, Joey and Ian. Almost cast a sympathy vote for Billy Ray but couldn't remember what number he was to vote for! Not sure if I like Apolo or not - he beat Canadians at the Olympics last year, so I'm holding a bit of a grudge
