Cheryl Burke and William Levy Dance the Rumba — Hot & Steamy!

I have to give Cheryl Burke some major credit. If William Levy was my partner, I’d probably choreograph the sexiest routine in the history of Dancing With the Stars too. It just make sense. Here’s how I imagine that conversation went: “William, please put your hand on my ass for the entirety of the routine. Don’t question me! That’s exactly how you dance the rumba!” Watch below.

Cheryl Burke & William Levy Dance Argentine Tango — Kill It!

The Argentine Tango has always been my favorite dance on Dancing With the Stars, and Cheryl Burke is one of my favorite professional dancers who doesn’t get the credit she deserves. She gets the best out of her partners, and her choreography is complicated without being over-the-top. And it doesn’t hurt that William Levy is not only talented, but he’s easy on the eyes. They easily stole the night with the Argentine Tango. Watch below.

Maria Menounos & Derek Hough Dance Salsa — Ego-Mania?

There’s something about Maria Menounos and Derek Hough’s salsa dance tonight that rubbed me the wrong way (no pun intended). Perhaps it was Derek Hough’s insatiable desire to show-off his body, or Maria’s faux-coy act. Either way, it didn’t work. I finally understand Howard Stern’s rants about how the male dancers’ egos have become to big for the show. Watch below.

Maksim & Melissa Dance the Salsa — Maksim is Shirtless

Every week that Dancing With the Stars airs I get an inevitable call from my mother, which involves an endless monologue about Maksim Chmerkovskiy’s hotness. “Mother,” I say, “I know, I know. What do you want me to do about it?” But this week was particularly different, and I’m forced to jump on board my mother’s drooling train. Not only did the man dance a very sexy salsa routine — but he also had his shirt open the entire time. Did I mention he was covered in sweat? Alright, I must stop now. Watch below, and note how the judges never have anything nice to say about him no matter how good his routine. It’s tough being beautiful.

Is Tristan MacManus the New DWTS Powerhouse?

Derek Hough has some serious competition. Tristan MacManus is officially a contender for the best-professional-dancer title on DWTS. In fact, when Tristan performed with Gladys Knight on tonight’s episode, I found myself exclusively watching Tristan. Plus, he’s also a nice guy who doesn’t yell at his partner to get results. I know this because I went to the show last season and made a point to watch him off-stage. I saw him comforting Nancy Grace who was profusely apologizing for her sub-par performance. He’s a true gentleman.

Dancing With the Stars — Jaleel White Makes His Television Comeback

I’ve had a crush on Jaleel White ever since he removed his suspenders on Family Matters. In fact, I’ve snooped around town to ask whether he’s a nice guy, and sources tell me he’s not only nice, he’s also smart, and contrary other child stars, he never blew all that money he made from the show. He shed some light on his lengthy stint as Steve Urkel in a recent Vanity Fair interview, saying, “It’s not overly sophisticated, man. I’m the highest-paid black kid in the history of television, just so you understand that. I was trying to prolong the checks! For all of the people who want to scratch their heads about this . . . we’re probably the second-longest-running African American show in the history of television.” Perhaps the child stars of today’s generation should take notes. Watch his great performance below.

Dancing With the Stars Debuts — Katherine Jenkins Steals the Show

They should just hand Katherine Jenkins the mirror ball trophy now. She’s not only a great dancer, but she also has the personality necessity to win over the audience. She’s adorable, sweet, and beautiful. And since she’s a classical singer — she’s also talented. Can I marry her? I realize this is a game and everyone competes for the prize, but she’s got it in the bag. Watch below.

Dancing With the Stars Season 14 Cast Revealed — Maksim Returns!

ABC revealed the new cast for Dancing With the Stars, and it’s already clear this will be a great season. First, despite all of the controversy he caused last year, Maksim Chmerkovskiy will return to the show. That’s good news considering he’s pretty much the only reason I watch. Second, there are some good stars this year, including Jaleel White (better known as “Steve Urkel”). Since I’ve been complaining that Dancing With the Stars has become a career launcher rather than a career salvager, that is also good news. And who doesn’t want to see the legendary Gladys Knight every week? To see the rest of the cast, click here.
