Jake Pavelka: Vote For Me on Dancing with the Stars!

April 24th, 2010



Long hours. Intense pressure. No pants. Jake Pavelka can endure that. Handling the “popularity contest” that is Dancing with the Stars? He’s got issues there.

“I think dancing-wise, I’ve been doing OK,” The Bachelor star said. “The thing I wasn’t really prepared for was this is a little bit of a popularity contest!”

“I’ve been focusing 150 percent of my energy on learning dancing and neglecting the 25 million people who don’t know they have to vote to keep you on.”

Only 150 percent, Jake? Might wanna kick it up to 175, dog.

“Look at the competition,” he says, “and [Chad] Ochocinco has 800,000 people on his twitter! I have 16,000. By the way, my twitter is @JakePavelka1.”

Jake Pavelka, No Pants

Yeah.

Solid plug, J. He does raise a valid point, though many fans do vote for who they like (hence, Kate Gosselin lasted five weeks). Still, Jake feels he’s up against it.

“It seems like everyone else is established in Hollywood, or they’ve walked on the moon, or run touchdowns for the Bengals. Everybody has a huge personality.”

Well, the show is Dancing with the Stars, man. It’s not Dancing with Peeps From Other Reality Shows and Celebrity Gossip Tabloids So We Can Boost Ratings.

The future Mr. Vienna Girardi, who was “shocked” he landed in the bottom two at one point, has stayed out of it the past two weeks as the field has narrowed.

Think he can win? Do you want him too? Who’s your favorite couple in this popularity contest? Tell us who you’re rooting for on Dancing with the Stars below:

Erin Andrews & Maksim Chmerkovskiy: Maybe Dating!

March 30th, 2010



Holy freaking hotness. That’s all we can say about the rumor that Erin Andrews and Maksim Chmerkovskiy, partners on the new season of Dancing with the Stars, are partnering off the dance floor as well. Maks even said it might be on!

Chmerkovskiy says that he and the ESPN sportscaster are “maybe” dating. That’s a lot closer to dating than “no,” right? He also lavished praise upon his partner.

“She doesn’t hold back. She’s open, and what you see is what there is,” Chmerkovskiy told People magazine. “Everybody who meets her falls in love with her.”

Himself included? Sounds like it!

Erin Andrews and Maksim Chmerkovskiy work it.

Chmerkovskiy, who was engaged to fellow Dancing with the Stars cast member Karina Smirnoff for a time, credited himself for pushing Andrews during their first dance together last Monday, which ranked among the season premiere’s best.

“I made her do a cha-cha that I would make a professional dancer do,” he said, and it paid off, as Erin Andrews isn’t shy about gushing about him either.

“When Kentucky was upset, [Maks] texted me about it,” the ESPN reporter said of having to miss some of the NCAA tournament for DWTS rehearsal. “Maks was like, ‘You are the only person I know that cares about this.’ He’s been adorable.”

Who are you rooting for on Dancing with the Stars? Erin and Maks? We can understand that, but there are other good candidates too. Vote below …

Behind the Scenes of Dancing with the Stars

March 23rd, 2010



The 10th season of Dancing with the Stars is officially underway, and while we already ran down Monday’s results, here are some things you might have missed:

Dedicated to dad: Shannen Doherty signed on to do the show for her father, Tom, who suffered a stroke in December, and wept after her debut Viennese waltz.

“I couldn’t keep it together,” the original Beverly Hills: 90210 star said. “I always said I’d never be that girl that cried on camera, but I did. Oh well, it’s my Daddy.”

Brooke brings it. Brooke Burke’s co-hosting debut was a success, for one reason “Having a partner like Tom [Bergeron] who’s impeccable helps,” Burke said.

Just wing it: As for another one of Monday evening’s surprise success stories, Pamela Anderson claims she “has never rehearsed for anything a day in her life.”

Her sexy bed head-inspired cha cha was surely worth the hours she and her partner, newcomer Damian Whitewood, logged in the studio the past three weeks.

“It was a lot of training,” says Anderson. “We want to do something different every time. It’s not always going to be sex, drugs, rock and roll, ripping off clothes.”

No? Shame.

Pamela Anderson was inspired by Pamela Anderson last night.

Star struck. Cheryl Burke sure was. Rehearsing with Chad Ochocinco in Miami, he lives “was like being with the President,” she joked. “He’s the king of Miami.”

“People stopped their cars to say hello. He has a great life,” she says, though he has to work on “his McDonald’s-heavy diet … no idea how he has a 12-pack.”

The girls of Jake Pavelka. The Bachelor may be over, but he’s still got women following him everywhere. Jake’s fiancee, Vienna Girardi was front and center.

Joining Vienna were the other ladies in Pavelka’s life - his mother, Sally, former Bachelor contestant Gia Allemand, and even The Bachelorette star Jillian Harris.

All the women were rooting for pilot, who turned in a respectable waltz with Chelsie Hightower. Performing in front of the live audience “was awesome,” he said.

Dancing with the Stars Profile: Chad Ochocinco

March 12th, 2010



While not nearly as attractive as the other sports personality on season 10 of Dancing with the Stars (call us, Erin Andrews!), Chad Ochocinco should make for an interesting, talkative contestant.

The attention-loving wide receiver has played for the Cincinnati Bengals throughout his NFL career. Will that experience translate to DWTS success, as it has for past athletes such as Apolo Anton Ohno?

Tune in on March 22 and find out. For now, get to know Ochocinco better via the profile below…

Birth name: Chad Javon Johnson
Professional partner: Cheryl Burke
Number of Pro Bowl selections: Six
Career receiving yards: 9,980
Best touchdown celebration: River dance/Pylon putt (tie)
Most used catchphrase: “Child, Please.”
Odds of winning: 25-1

Who is Damian Whitewood?

March 4th, 2010



The new cast of Dancing with the Stars is filled with more familiar names than usual.

Kate Gosselin? Erin Andrews? Jake Pavelka? These people have been in the news for months.

But on the professional side, there’s someone who is a total stranger to anyone that’s not a hardcore dance enthusiast: Damian Whitewood.

This Australian will make his DWTS debut on March 22. He’s partered with Pamela Anderson and we can report the following facts about Whitewood:

  • He’s spent the last few years touring with a production of “Burn the Floor.”
  • He’s represented Australia in the Worlds Youth Latin in Germany, the Worlds Youth Ballroom in Russia and was a semifinalist at the Blackpool International Championships in Great Britain.
  • He’s appeared on Dancing With The Stars Down Under, as well as on the Australian version of So You Think You Can Dance.

Based on this resume, it doesn’t sound like Damian needs our advice. But we have this word to the Samba-ing wise: wear a mouthpiece. Anderson’s breasts could be dangerous weapons.
