Chaz on DWTS - Page 12

Dominique · 10-11-2011, 04:51 PM

I love the way Lacey Schwimmer markets him too. Case in point that whole *GiG* last night. Excellent. I'm a sap too.
I watched it again as I posted it, same reaction as I had last night, tears. She has made it both fun and real for Chazz.

The Arquette sisters were in the house last night. Bruce Jenner nearly had a coughing fit at something Carson did. Can't remember now. It's good entertainment. Oh yeah, Abby "header" Wambach was there last night supporting Hope Solo. Various teammates have been there. Courtney Cox has been there the past two weeks.

Yes, many "celeb" friends and family have been there. That is one reason I was hopeful Cher attended at some point. As well as his half-brother and step-mother. I felt kind of yucky during the first show when there wern't more family and friends there for him actually watching and cheering him on. Although, I get why there needed to be sensitivity to who was there at the show for him. But don't like it- everyone else had key relatives there.

I think he will being going on to the next show. I am getting really tired of carrie Ann's obvious issues with women atheletes as feminine concerning Hope Solo. I was thrilled that Len and Bruno both (as they have been) critiqued her dance in terms of technique and the fact that she has this down. Obviously she struggles with what many female dancers have learned from childhood in terms of feminine stereotypes of movement. Most likely a life-long battle and could almost be viewed as a form of body dysphoria.

To me it looks like Chaz is dropping some weight and feeling better out there each week. I want him to have the plain enjoyment of it all along with all that goes along with his making a statement for transpeople. Something just for him as a human being that we all need.

Wow, here's hoping the queer voting bloc comes out and votes during the next elections the way they are voting for DWTS. LOL

Write14u · 10-11-2011, 07:51 PM

OMG...
I. AM. DYING. HERE.

Nancy Grace's dancing partner gave her advice before last night.
It consisted of this: Keep your nipples in, don't fart...and you'll be alright.

I almost fell off the couch laughing.

Yep,It would be great if the gay/queer voteing block did this in elections that can change things for the good.

I know- I especially liked Tristan's pronunciation of fart! I about fell over!!!

Shadowboi2010 · 10-12-2011, 05:00 AM

I laughed too. I can hardly imagine Nancy Grace farting as it is.

I bet only the dogs can hear it.

Hah...Google search that one and see a clip from the week before. It was hysterical. Best part was the look on Tristan's face. That's why I knew it was legit. He's about to die in the clip.
And then when he acknowledged it this week, I was cracking up.

ruffryder · 10-15-2011, 12:27 PM

Thanks for those that post the videos of the dances! I missed last weeks but saw the results. . I did enjoy Chazz's dance. His best so far, I think. Good job!! I hope he continues to feel inspired and keeps getting better! Good job Chaz!

J. Mason · 10-17-2011, 07:44 PM

I think Chaz did a better job this week than last week!

Shadowboi2010 · 10-17-2011, 09:28 PM

I agree, in fact I think it may have been better than his Cha Cha.

Peach · 10-18-2011, 08:58 AM

He still isnt my favorite dancer, but he is way better than Carson. I WISH Carson would take it seriously, I think he could have been really good, but he just wants to goof around, and camp it up. He didnt even really try to do a jive last night. JR continues to impress, that samba last night was HOT. Ricky proved last night, that without Derek, she wouldnt be going far, Nancy has improved a lot too, but still not one of my faves either.

Let's let the PLANET decide AT&T customers call 867-5301 to vote for Carson

Dominique · 10-18-2011, 09:33 AM

For you ATLAST, I expect to see your comments. You know how I feel! HAWT!

MsTinkerbelly · 10-18-2011, 10:10 AM

I thought Chaz showed some improvement this week, which is why I gave him 3 of my 8 votes.

I think Carson really wants to dance, but has 3 left feet. Sometimes, just for an instant, you can see how much he is hurt by the judge's comments. He has had to develop a tough hide through the years, and he seems to hide his feelings behind the goofiness.

theoddz · 10-18-2011, 10:49 AM

I don't usually watch these shows, but I have been following Chaz's performances, simply because I want to cheer him on!! It's not every day a person sees a guy like us (transmen) put himself out into the public eye, opening himself up to criticism and cheering, alike. I want to be part of the cheering crowd!!!

I have to admit, I really enjoyed watching the show this week, not just because of my desire to root for Chaz, but also because I really dig that 80's music. I don't think they could've possibly found more danceable music than what was popular in the 80's era. My favorite tune of the night was the cover of Spandau Ballet's "True" . How well I remember that wonderful song, and I think Nancy Grace and Tristan McManus did a wonderful job with it. It brought back those magical evenings I had, myself, dancing to that song with a lovely Lady in my arms. (thanks, Allison!!

)

Go Chaz!!! Great performance!!!!

Dominique · 10-18-2011, 11:48 AM

I love 80's music. I still listen to it, most of the time. DWTS is one of the very few TV shows I watch, other than the news. By the time Chazz and Ricki come on to dance, It's way past my normal *go to sleep* time so, I usually have to stand up, to stay awake to see them dance (silly, I know)
Well, when Ricki and Derek started out that fox trot with a Rodger Rabbit, I flashed back to my clubbing days. (keep in mind I was 99% asleep) so I broke into my own rendition of Rodger Rabbit.....thinking it may have looked more like the DiGiorno pizza guy it took me forever to learn how to do that. Apparently I didn't remember it forever. I woke up this morning with a head ache and have had poor concentration all day. No doubt from shaking my brain around doing the Roger Rabbit incorrectly.

Kudo's to you Nancy Grace...even though it wasn't you doing the Roger Rabbit...you are out there as a middle aged woman giving it a fair shot. And lets not forget Kirstie Alley

lol.
