Dancing with the Stars 6: Week 5 Loser
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Dancing With The Stars, Features,
Yesterday on Dancing with the Stars: Season 6, the celebrities did their best to find the Latin in them. While it was another great night for Kristi Yamaguchi and Jason Taylor, sadly those two contestants were the only ones to get scores above 25. (Last week, four couples got above that figure.)
Last night’s styles proved to be quite difficult for several of the amateurs. The slow Rumba exposed some dancers’ faults (Priscilla, Cristian) while the fast Samba tested the abilities and/or timing of others (Shannon, Marlee). By night’s end, Miss Presley - a former contender for the title - had earned the lowest score (21) while Marissa was steadily improving her overall average (21.2).

Last week, most of the dancers were floating on air after their impressive turns at either the Paso Doble or the Viennese Waltz. By Tuesday, three of them had 10s, Marissa had confidence and Adam had a return ticket home.
Today, the celebrities of Dancing with the Stars: Season 6 welcomed Latin night with either the sizzling Samba or the romantic Rumba. Did someone finally reach the elusive 30…and was anyone able to make Carrie Ann cry again? Read on!

Last night on Dancing with the Stars: Season 6, we saw a large group of stars reach new personal highs with their dances. Although it wasn’t a surprise to see Kristi Yamaguchi come so close to a perfect score (she received the first two 10’s of the season), it was a bit of a shocker to see Jason Taylor surge past former leader Mario. (The football player also scored two 10’s.)
While they may not have been scoring 29’s, other celebrities made waves for themselves as well. Cristián de la Fuente‘s paso doble earned the actor his best marks ever (26), Shannon overcame partner issues to rack up her highest total (28) and Marissa dug herself out of a hole with a committed performance (24).

Last Monday, the Top Ten competitors did their best to impress with either the Tango or the Jive. By Tuesday, Adam had improved, Mario had stumbled and Steve was eliminated.
This week on Dancing with the Stars: Season 6, the celebrities were introduced to either the intense Paso Doble or the romantic Viennese Waltz. Did Kristi finally deviate from her boring three 9’s…and was Marissa simply boring? Read on!

For its second results show, Dancing with the Stars: Season 6 went back to the solo elimination system. Misery may love company, but only one couple will end up getting the boot from this point on.
If the choice was based on Monday’s scores alone, Marissa Jaret Winokur (19) would have been the one to go. The Broadway performer was the only person - and that includes Adam Carolla - who failed to surpass 20 points yesterday. But viewers taking all three past dances into account would have probably put either Adam or Steve on the block. Those two men averaged only 18.3 points per performance.

Two down, ten to go. Last week on the Dancing with the Stars: Season 6, the celebrities were tasked with mastering either the Quickstep or the Mambo. Those results helped in eliminating magician Penn Jillette and tennis star Monica Seles the following day.
This week, the amateurs took on either the fiery Tango or the fast-paced Jive. Which performers eased into their dance like a fish to water and which ones simply got in over their heads? Read on!

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?

Tuesday night saw the second-half of the Dancing with the Stars: Season 6 debut.

Were the women intimidated by Monday’s performances…or did they bring the competition to a whole new level? Read on!

Dancing with the Stars: Season 6 kicked off tonight with another interesting range of participants. This time around we had a football player, an R&B artist, a magician, a radio DJ and two actors.
For the show’s first week, the men had Monday night to themselves. (The ladies will take their floor tomorrow.) This will all lead to the very first double-elimination next week (one man, one woman) after all 12 couples get another chance to perform.
So how did the six new gentlemen stack up? Read on!
