Anyone watch Dancing with the Stars?
Go A.C.!
Go A.C.!
Mario Lopez, so-far the best celebrity dancer on ABC's "Dancing with the Stars," was on the Ellen DeGeneres Show today (Tuesday) and tried to fan away all the smoke hovering around allegations he had more dance experience than he's let on.
...
Ellen: So tell me what happened? You said you had not taken dance class before?
Mario: Thank you for giving me the opportunity to clear this up. I was so nervous when I got there. Right? It was live … it's like the Olympics. When she asked me, I thought she meant, like, formal and ballroom dancing, which I've never ever done. Now, when I was little kid I didn't come from exactly an upscale neighborhood and I was a little hyper and to keep me out of trouble my Mom put me in a bunch of stuff … karate lessons, sports and some dance classes, when I was young, you know? . . . Doing the cabbage patch isn't going to help you with the foxtrot, you know what I'm saying? So, when asked on the show, I thought she was asking about formal training, and it was all a blur and sort of surreal … but we're talking like over 20 years ago.
Hmmmm ... sounds kinda wishy-washy to me. "Some dance class''? Define "some,'' please. Come on Ellen … take off the kid gloves!!!

Gutter said:Of course he's had previous dance experience. Don't you remember he and Kelly Kapowski took second in The Maxx's Dance Contest with Casey Kasem. Would've won it if Lisa didn't get the sympathy vote with her broken ankle.

That alone is worth a lifetime of pain.
If anything, Lopez should try out for the UFC. ;D

Sympathy vote? SYMPATHY VOTE?!?!? I know you're not dissing The Sprain.
