Dancing With The Stars

Which Controversial Reality Star Posted This Shady Pic?

editorial@wetpaint.com — 2013-05-24T23:08:13+00:00

During her stint on a popular reality show, this trouble-stirring lady had a few problems with her image. While some of it made us love her — appearing to eat only Cheetos, which she classily poured onto a plate — other antics didn’t come across quite so charming. Like, for example, the time she maybe-on-purpose fell down some stairs in order to put the focus on her instead of another girl. Or, that time she may have faked hypothermia while out with a guy and a group. You know, just little...

Should Dancing With the Stars Have Celebrity Judges? You Tell Us!

editorial@wetpaint.com — 2013-05-24T21:25:01+00:00

Dancing With the Stars has been on for 16 seasons, and there’s no doubt that the dancing competition show has its format down pat. While they made a few changes and additions this season — including the now-famous “Len’s side-by-side challenge” — there wasn’t a big shake-up until they canceled the results show. Now that they have adapted a format similar to So You Think You Can Dance (in which they announce the eliminated contestant at the top of the following week’s performance episode),...

editorial@wetpaint.com — 2013-05-24T15:30:07+00:00

Dancing With the Stars has been around for 16 seasons, so clearly the hit ABC competition knows what it’s doing. However, the veteran show may be getting a shake-up, as sources report that the judges’ panel — Len Goodman, Bruno Tonioli, and Carrie Ann Inaba — may not return next season. Rumors have swirled that the trio will be replaced by celebrity judges, much like other reality competition shows like American Idol, The Voice, The X Factor, and America’s Got Talent.

5 Best Freestyles in Dancing With the Stars History

editorial@wetpaint.com — 2013-05-23T19:46:16+00:00

Lesson for all future Dancing With the Stars Freestylers: Go for either Country or Contemporary. Drew Lachey and Cheryl Burke’s Season 2 cowboy dance set a standard that was later picked up by Donald Driver and Peta Murgatroyd on Season 14. Melissa Rycroft and Tony Dovolani’s emotional Contemporary routine earned them an All-Stars win, and Kellie Pickler and Derek Hough followed suit on Season 16. Contemporary didn't quite seal the deal for Erin Andrews and Maksim Chmerkovskiy on Season 10,...

Dramatic Weight Loss From Stars Under 30 (PHOTOS)

editorial@wetpaint.com — 2013-05-24T01:20:11+00:00

When we think “dramatic weight loss,” we often think of folks in their 30s or 40s with a newfound slow metabolism, or a long-overweight person taking some extra care of their health. These celebs took matters into their own hands early, losing a significant amount of weight before age 30! We of course have Weight Watchers spokeswoman and American Idol finalist Jennifer Hudson, and weight-loss poster child Jonah Hill. Who else has dropped pounds in their 20s? Click here to find out!

From Pickler Power to Puppy Power, it’s safe to call Kellie Pickler a big winner, given her recentDancing With the Stars Season 16 win. But do you know what's even better than a shiny Mirror Ball trophy? A puppy!

However, after the show, Kellie told Life & Style things only got better when her husband Kyle Jacobs surprised her with a new puppy. (Cue the...

Dancing With the Stars Season 16 came down to a tight race between Kellie Picker and Derek Hough and Zendaya and Val Chmerkovskiy. While certain tweets suggest Val (not to mention brother Maksim Chmerkovskiy) might be somewhat bitter over the loss, it looks there can't be too many hard feelings.

Should the DWTS Judges Be Replaced?

editorial@wetpaint.com — 2013-05-23T13:59:40+00:00

It seems like every year, rumors fly about Dancing With the Stars shaking up its judging panel, and yet Bruno Tonioli, Carrie Ann Inaba, and Len Goodman are still with us. However, given the other changes in store for Season 17, this year's batch of rumors seem slightly more plausible. With DWTS' ratings plummeting, it's clear something has to change. ABC has already cut the show back to one night a week — who's to say they won't also cut the judges, or perhaps add an extra judge (maybe...

Dancing With the Stars 2013: Was Throwing Out Online Voting Unfair?

Dancing With the Stars Season 16 was a relatively predictable season, but it's not DWTS without some drama. And for the finale, that drama came in the form of a voting SNAFU that has left some fans frustrated. Well into the Monday show, voting on ABC.com went down. And it stayed down, much to fans' chagrin. Of course, voting via phone, text, and Facebook was still an option, but a lot of people like to vote online. Still, that was what it was — this isn't the first time a method of voting...

Dancing With the Stars has been on for 16 glorious seasons, and in that time, judges Len Goodman, Bruno Tonioli, and Carrie Ann Inaba have offered their critiques, colorful commentary, and dancing skills to the Mirror Ball hopefuls.

Bad News For Dancing With the Stars! Ratings Hit All-Time Finale Low

It looks like Dancing With the Stars made the right call by cutting the Results Show for the fall season — last night garnered the lowest finale ratings out of all 16 seasons. Though excitement built throughout the two-hour show, it wasn’t enough to get the audience too excited. It drew 15 million and a 2.6, which was up significantly week-over-week, but was down 16 and 21 percent from last year’s Mirror Ball crowning, according to TVLine. This is a 180-degree turn from the final performance...

Last night (May 21, 2013), Kellie Pickler and Derek Hough were crowned the Dancing With the Stars Season 16 champs, and we can't say we're surprised. Kellie was a deserving winner who sealed the deal with an incredible Freestyle; she and Derek did everything right, earning that Mirror Ball with hard work and major talent. That said, runner-ups Zendaya Coleman and Val Chmerkovskiy weren't exactly slouches when it came to talent or hard work — we think they were equally deserving of the crown....

On Tuesday, May 21, Kellie Pickler and Derek Hough wonDancing With the Stars Season 16. However, we think that footballerJacoby Jones andKarina Smirnoff should have been the pair to take home the Mirror Ball. Here are three reasons why: 1.

Dang it! Zendaya fans can blame the ABC.com voting snafu! Or maybe Kellie Pickler and Derek Hough for having such a popular, amazing Freestyle. If Freestyles win seasons, Kellie & Derek had the momentum after Monday’s Dancing With the Stars Season 16 Performance Show. Zendaya Coleman and Val Chmerkovskiy didn’t do anything wrong. They were a fantastic team. They put on amazing performances. They topped the judges’s leaderboard on the Finale. But it was always going to come down to Kellie...

The American Idol alum won a highly competitive season, and helped Derek Hough win his record fourth trophy. (He should at least get a set of steak knives for that.) Why?
