It's probably the best gig she'll get so here's hoping she enjoys it. Not like it's really anything special, imo.

I saw Aiden and Edyta on GMA this morning. They were asked about the drama of Edyta crying shown in the first (?) rehearsal package. The reply was that in weeks of long days of practice they had had one argument. It was a very small portion of their time together (like three minutes) and Edyta said, "Unfortunately, the producers chose to show it."

Of course they chose to show it. It's all about the drama these days. I recorded GMA and am looking forward to seeing their interview.

No matter what the producers chose to show, I saw a genuine friendship between Aiden and Edyta with a lot of respect for each other.

This week's Macy's "Stars of Dance" performance is "Dance in Movies," a powerful tribute to some of the most memorable dances from films throughout the ages. The performance will be arranged by award-winning choreographer, Marguerite Derricks, who reprises some her famous choreography from "Austin Powers" and "Fame," with a special appearance by Debbie Allen.

Also on Tuesday, "Dancing" alum and comedian Adam Carolla will be back do a comic "between the mirror balls" bit.

Among the eight couples remaining in the competition, one of the following teams will be sent home on Tuesday:

They better not make Adam be nice about Kate. Who, by the way, Tony says is having a great week with her dance Nothing mentioned about the dance off so I wonder if it is back this week, or at all. Either way, she'll be back after this week.

We know the movie themes so far are Erin/Maks (Pulp Fiction), Jake said his was a Tom Cruise movie so his must be Risky Business (please don't attempt the Tom tighty whitey move Jake), Nicole/Derek (Pretty Woman).

[Bunny555]

On The Insider tonight, they said that it is indeed Risky Business and Niecy/Louis will be doing La Bamba.

[bboo88]

I knew it! HA! I KNEW that they'd be doing "The Breakfast Club". Now my fiancée owes me $20.

[ChelsieFan]

I really thought Jake would be doing a song from Top Gun because of the pilot connection. Who is dancing to The Breakfast Club song?

Seriously when is Kate even practicing with the media tour? And truth is she doesn't even need to because she won't cut her loose this week anyway.

Really good article, Anders. I do think DWTS hurt her image more than helped it. It's also nice to see someone reporting on how many of us feel. TY to Karalott as well for posting her article. Good info.
