DWTS results
Amazingly, the doll-maker-strangle-hold-vote-getter did not win. Either the voters got with the program or the producers decided to exercise their behind-the-scenes power (I mean, who'd know and/or who'd stop them?).
In any case, Helio won!! It's undeniable that Mel Brown was the superior dancer, actually an extraordinary dancer and personality. She has style and charm beyond belief! Among other things, she made the - let's admit it - occasionally ridiculous ballroom moves look simply wonderful. But Helio won! Partly because he had never danced before and managed to learn to dance amazingly, and partly because he simply exudes such enormous charm and excitement. And partly because of Julianne Hough who is one of the cutest people ever to appear on television (and she's only 19!), not to mention an exceptionally good choreographer and dancer.
As far as dirt-dishing: first - where did the doll dancer go after she got voted off? For someone who couldn't be silenced for two seconds until then, she just disappeared afterwards. Please tell me she wasn't sulking or brewing up a formal protest. If *that* happens, Sabrina and Mark had better bop her over the head and formally protest on their own. Second - if Mel and Maks don't have something going on, as they say, I'd be stunned. Their -ah- chemistry seemed more than dance partners. Maybe it's like summer stock actors - fall in love for the run of the show and all. Third - did Celine Dion buy all the falls in all the salons in America (except the ones that Samantha grabbed first)?? How else to explain the waterfall of hair? No one on earth has that much tumbly hair, no one. Fourth - I have to admit that Samantha Harris looked amazing in that sparkly black dress. Her baby must miss her since she's obviously been doing nothing but exercise since the birth, but it's very impressive. Finally - Tom B. really is terrific as a host. He can ad lib and yuk it up charmingly and give just the faintest suggestion of risqué without ever going there. And he looked positively blushingly happy after Mel's last kiss, I must say - and who could blame him?!
After the goofy judging (yes, Virginia, there are seven actual numbers before 8, 9 and 10), the strange voting, and the endless persistance of the doll person whose nether parts showed way too often in ridiculous so-called dance moves, I was all set to boycott the show in the future, but I'm a fan all over again after last night. Now if Mel Brown would only get her own show or something so I could watch and/or listen to her without the rest of the Spice Girls.
