9/24 DWTS All Stars: Premiere **West Coast Spoilers**

[Fanny Mare]

Emmett's hip action always makes me smile. He and Cheryl have such great chemistry on the dance floor. Really looking forward to seeing how this season will pan out.

I dont know why he was so nervous There was no need to be was there??

Half the fun of watching this show and following along this thread is "watching" you all get sauced with your drinking games. If I participated, I'd be in rehab inside a month.

There certainly was not. Maybe he was worried he wouldn't be able to live up to the same standard of dancing as the last time he was on the show.

I think there was more than one person thinking that way( I sure would) Some shouldnt have even been on this AS show. No need for names, we know who they are

I'd like a clarification....we can drool all season long in the live threads about Gilles without it violating the "beating a dead horse" rule, right? Because it's not beating a dead horse. It's appreciating a hot stud.

Only if me continuing to go, "Giles? I just don't get it!" over & over again doesn't violate the rule, either, LOL!

Let's put it this way...it's not beating a dead horse if you keep it relevant to the show that's on while you're posting. "I love/hate Gilles/Bristol/Pam/Whoever" by itself isn't enough, we're looking for discussion about what's going on during the show we're watching. You can hate their moves, what they're wearing, how they talked to the judges, the way they scratched their nose in the skybox...just comment on what's going on, not just your general feelings. For those, use the bio thread.

How's that?

Jonathan Knight from NKOTB tweeted "I'm taking live phone calls right now at 1 (800) 868-3412 Call me and let's chat." NKOTB fans on Twitter are CRAZY, so I'm wondering how many extra votes Kirstie and Maks will get from people thinking it's legit. I think it's funny.

I don't think it's Bristol "hate" as much as Bristol what-the-heck-is-she-doing-here. When she was on last time, it made absolutely no sense -- she was the daughter of a political figure, which does NOT make you a "celebrity." So now she has been on a reality show. Does that make her a celebrity? Not in my mind. She was obviously chosen (both times) simply to bring in some controversy, and that makes me feel bad for her -- she's being used by ABC and she's too dumb/shy/naive to see it.

Is it okay to have drinking games ( of which it seems we have many reasons) ....

There's also the possibility that she's decided that since she is, whether she likes it or not, a public figure and has been since she was the pregnant teen daughter of a vice presidential candidate, that she might as well profit by it. Lots of people seem to do DWTS in hopes of jump-starting or rejuvenating a career, and for some of them, it's worked. Surely Bristol can't be unaware of that.
