Chaz on DWTS

AtLast · 11-15-2011, 03:06 PM

I love Jr & Riki, but feel that Solo continues to be the brunt of catty, anti-female athlete remarks on the show. And it is obvious that Carrie "judges" her negatively on some kind of "this is what real feminity is" scale. Frankly, I understand max's anger. Frankly, I am sick of the high marks given to Rob, especially because Hope Solo is a much better dancer. No, she is not the best and I expect either JR or Riki to win it and can see this. One of them should. And I think Rob Kardashian is a nice guy and has improved, but Hope is better at technique and musicality. Rob is stiff and many of his blown steps are never pointed out by the judges, never. Solo's fluidity is quite good. But she is not part of the Hollywood celeb crowd, now is she?

It was interesting to see what Hope Solo has lived in terms of her father and being abducted by him as a kid. She sure didn't have an enchanted childhood! Throughout the competitiion and actually when I have watched her play soccer, I have always though there is deep sadness in her eyes. Now I know why.

My guess is that Hope will be out tonight and this really bugs me.

Hope was not the weakest link...oops, wrong show.

part of me was sad to see her go, but at the same time, the other dancers WERE better than her. she was neve going to be as graceful as the pro females, but she shouldnt have been expected to be. I am still all about JR winning.

I forgot all about this thread

It was pretty much given that Hope will be the one . It was all over Internet that she was sorry loser WHAT ?
After everything she has been trough ? I don't blame her she didn't want to talk about it and have all kind of interviews .

So Monday are the finals and I am just curious if will be JR or Ricki . Now , if is Rob , I know Kardashians took over the planet Earth .

Peach · 11-19-2011, 07:53 AM

she was kinda a sore loser. she hasnt been through anything more than say, Jr, or the others to make her more deserving etc...they are all deserving. her dancing had improved, but not enough, and to tell the judges they can kiss her ass BEFORE she even got her scores was childish at best. Even Maks was trying to make her stop, sort of. robs dancing has improved, way more than hers had, but he still isnt as good as the other two, but you never know, he could pull it off, but I am still all for JR!

Solo was treated quite poorly and stereotypically as a female athlete by the judges, especially the woman on this show. Cattiness galore by Carrie throughout and I got really sick of the put downs about her femininity- not all women are girlie-girls and sporty women have their own unique grace. And internal scars are as hurtful as external ones. Although, I think JR is wonderful and one driven person. His Mom sure gave him love and security as a single Mom which helped get him through some hella tough stuff!

She and Chaz have some legitimate complaints. And my heart goes out to her as it does for JR in terms of horrible life events. Rob is not a better dancer than Hope Solo, period. Rob is far behind the technique and musicality of a male lead, which JR has. ahe and Riki also have some raw dance talent- Rob does not. He seems like a nice guy, but it is BS that he is among the top 3 in the finals. Totally Hollywood politics. The male judges see that he is not at the level of JR as a male lead. His footwork is not great.

I don't think she dances as well as Jr or Riki, but she should beat out rob at this point. He has no fluidity and does not have the athleticism that Hope, JR and Riki have in general- and part of dance is athleticism.

JR & Riki ought to be the finalists with one of them the winner. It's hard, because both have become serious dancers throughout the competition and obviously put in the hours.

If Rob takes this, I'm with you- it was bought and paid for.

I was so disappointed that this happened. I tried to keep it into perspective, it's all about ratings, not about Dancing. Please, this is not the E channel and the KarTRASHians are not invested in this channel. I thought this was a disney channel(?)......so much for that.

Hope and Mak's were not invited to make a guest appearance on Jimmy Kimmel live/ nor Good Morning America. Unlike all the others in the past. Instead, a decision was made prior to Hope and Maks getting voted off the Island, the producers elected to promote the remaining three
on Kimmel and GMA. Hope went home to the state of Washington and was tweeting away. She is expected to make an appearance, along with Chazz and Carson et/el Tuesday. I WILL NOT BE WATCHING. not that they will care what I am doing.

I have to agree with Hopes' comments, They(the judges) did seem to want her off the show. KarTRASHian, week after week, looks to Cheryl for his next step...he doesn't know his dances. (similar to how Mark Ballas used to count out the dances to Bristol Palin).

I'm hoping DWTS does not go in another direction with Maks. Hope will be fine. In fact, she has her sights set on an olympic gold medal. Carrie Ann and KarTrashian Rob (who has never even had a job) can only dream what that must be like.

I wonder if Beach Volleyball Star Misty May Treanor, would not have been injured earlt in DWTS, and competed longer.....if the view of a female athlete would be different?

I said it before and I'll say it again. I thought Hope was sexy. I thought Maks brought her a long way. They danced well together.

there have been other female athletes on the show, Shawn Johnson, Kristy Yamaguchi. Both won. Kristy was an easy pic due to her gracefullness from her skating, but Shawn was stocky, short, and not your "typical" female shape, but she still won. *I* feel, Hopes attitude towards any criticizm was her downfall. She got suspended from a soccer team for critisizing the coach for not playing her in a game the team lost, and she was was telling these judges to kiss her ass before they even scored her performances. She WAS good, she did improve, but she still wasnt up the caliber of other dancers, and yet felt she was entitled to higher scores. dont forget, half the scores that sent her home, came from the viewing audience. I felt bad for Maks, he is an amazing dancer, and just once, I would like to see him win!

Since it's reality T.V., we don't even know if that is *true*

After the arranged wedding, I am skeptical of all reality television.
