Because I’m Still A Giddy School Girl Inside

One of my not-so-secret television indulgences is Dancing With The Stars. My husband teases me for liking a “silly reality show with no point.” Ahh, but there is a point, to entertain me with fancy dance moves that make me want to bring out the hidden dance machine in me.

I love dancing. When I was little I wanted to be in dance classes, but my parents couldn’t afford these luxuries, so I learned to dance from relatives and friends who were in dance classes.

Watching this season of DWTS is more difficult for me now because I have to choose between, Mario Lopez and Joey Lawrence; two of my teen heartthrobs from when I was in junior high.

I know, I’m a dork, but seriously, watching Mario Lopez samba was exciting and I think it secretly brought back those starstruck feelings I had when watching “Saved By The Bell” at age 14.

So after finding out last night that no one got kicked off the show, I’m a little irked. The lowest scores were those of Joey and Jerry. Jerry Springer dances like a chicken with his head cut off. He should have been removed. It’s not my fault Sara Evans left the show, and we shouldn’t have to suffer through another horrible performance by the “Sprinkler” (from his Disco Dance), so let’s just nip this in the bud: Jerry Springer needs to be removed!

And I’ll go back to being torn between Slater and “Whoa!”.

Kapeish?

  1. OK, so tell me… was Joey Lawrence’s “Whoa!” any less stupid when he was attractive to you at age 14? As I guy, I hated that!

    Still, I know some pretty stupid stuff was a turn-on to me because of the girl who said/ wore/did it… I’m just at a loss to remember them at the moment. How about spandex leggings under mini-skirts! It’s back, and it still floats my boat. :)

  2. Seriously, the “Whoa!” wasn’t so bad back then (13 years ago- fugg I’m old), but now that I look back??? TOTALLY STUPID.

    You wanna hear something else?? I have Joey Lawrence’s cassette from when he wanted to be a hip hop artist. Hahahaha…..now THAT my friend is why they call me Dorky Dana. :)

  3. oooh! i’m right there with you, girlfriend! i rarely vote when i watch DWTS, but after seeing joey’s dance, i picked up the phone and called his number. i, too, was torn between he and slater, but in the end, i voted for the one that made my heart skip a beat imagining i was his dance partner. who knows? maybe slater will get my vote the next round.
