Dancing with the Stars 6: Week 9 Loser
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Dancing With The Stars, Features,
On last night’s episode of Dancing with the Stars: Season 6, the four semifinalists had the opportunity to showcase their improvement. Their dances - chosen at random - were all repeats of styles they had done before.
By night’s end:
- Jason Taylor got a 28 for his Foxtrot (formerly 22) and a 27 for his Paso Doble (26). Total = 55.
- Cristián de la Fuente was coincidentally assigned the same two performances he attempted the night of his injury. Despite horrible flashbacks, he earned a 27 for his Viennese Waltz (25) and a 29 for his Samba (21). His total of 56 topped the Miami Dolphin.
- Underdog Marissa Jaret Winokur scored a 26 for her Quickstep (21) and a 26 for the Rumba (25). Total - 52.
- Kristi Yamaguchi racked up a 28 for her Jive (down from her perfect 30) and a 29 for her Tango (27). Her total of 57 was the best of the evening.

Dancing with the Stars 6: Week 2 Losers

Without a token model to cast off this time around, the viewers of Dancing with the Stars: Season 6 ultimately based their first set of votes on sheer ability.
For the show’s first double-elimination, there were little surprises to be had. After Monday’s numbers were combined with last week’s scores, magician Penn Jillette and tennis star Monica Seles both found themselves one foot out the door. (Their grand totals of 33 and 30, respectively, were the lowest of the competition.) Tonight, the fans gently pushed them the rest of the way out.
At this stage last fall, Josie Maran and Albert Reed were the first two to be let go. The real shockers didn’t start developing until several weeks in. Could we eventually see a Sabrina Bryan-esque elimination this season? If so - when do you think it will happen? Place your bets now!

The division of the sexes formally ended on tonight’s Dancing with the Stars: Season 6. All twelves couples gathered for their last chance to dazzle the viewers before Tuesday’s dreaded double-elimination.
Last week, Adam Carolla and Monica Seles scraped the bottom of the scoring barrel (15 points each) while Mario and Kristi Yamaguchi (24 and 27 points, respectively) made it known they were the ones to look out for. How did the celebrities fare with Monday’s dances? Did they do anything in their second outing to change their standing in the competition?
