The encore dance choosen by the judges was Mya.
The performances for tonight show included Alicia Keys, Leona Lewis and Barry and Robin Gibb. For those who don't know Barry and Robin Gibb, they are the B-Gees. They B-Gees are celebrating 50 years! Melissa Rycroft danced to the songs the B-Gees sang.
In the bottom two were Kelly and Joanna. Joanna went home this week on dancing with the stars. Im sad to see her go. I'm not going to lie I'm all for Kelly winning and if it can't be Kelly then Donny.

Semi Finals!!!!! (11-16-09)
3 Full Dances! The Pressure is on. Tonight's dances were great. The showed a little history on each celebrity dancer, it was really nice to see. Joanna had wanted to dance since she was a little girl and the family didn't have the money to get her into the practices she needed. I"m glad she's made it this far and hopefully she can do something with what she has learned on dancing with the stars. Everyone of the dancers at some point did a solo section in one of the routines. Donny danced the Tango, samba and the jitterbug. Joanna did the Viennese waltz, the cha cha and the salsa. Kelly danced the rumba, the quick step and the cha cha. Mya did the waltz, the salsa and the cha cha. Donny is entering the semi finals in the last place. Gilles helped him in work on the tango. I love to watch him dance just to see the facial expressions he has. He is an entertainer at heart. He stumbled doing the tango and blamed it on Marie. He did a flip in the jitter bug. He is so much fun to watch. Joanna had help from Brook Burke this week on the Viennese waltz. Derek was singing and the dress she wore was lovely. I got dizzy watching her dance the cha cha and she stumble at the end of her salsa. Kelly's hair was pretty this evening. She looked like a princess in a pink dress. Kelly was the first dancer so have a solo section tonight and Louie stood and watched. I noticed the others did their own moves in the background. I also liked that her dress for the quick step looked so normal. As in I could go to the store and buy it as a nice flowery spring/summer dress. Sharron (her mom) had tears in her eyes tonight. I love how her mom hasn't missed a performance. Ozzy has been to a good many as well. Mya made rules up in practice for practice. I don't really see how that was productive but whatever works for you. I really like the delicateness of her dress. Myas dances always look nice and very good. I never seem to have as much to say about her dances and I think that's why.

For those who don't know the song it is from Le Misarabe(I know I spelled it wrong). I sang it in H.S. chorus. Michael (i didn't get his last name) also sang two sons. Macy's design a dance performance was tonight. America got to choose the dancers, the song and the outfits. Sabrina Bryan danced with Mark Ballas. They danced the Paso doble to eye of the tiger.

The Ballroom and The Latin Rounds
So I finally got to watch got to watch this past weeks dancing with the stars (thank you Monday night football) and the results show. There were two rounds this week. Ballroom and Latin dances. Latin dances were given a specific decade. Every couple did two full dances tonight. Each round opened with the judges commenting on a previous dance that the couples have done that belong in that particular round. I found it amusing that some of the comments were accurate but the judges didn't follow what they said need to happen and don't judge that way. It's really bothersome.
The Ballroom Round
Mya did the quick step. She's been stressing out so Dimitry took her horseback riding. I liked her the dress she wore. It was a shinny coral color. I think Dimitry did more movement than she did. She finally has Len on her side. Aaron did the fox trot. Karina is sick all week she had a fever and felt dizzy occasionally. she wore full sweats and a jacket at practice to break her fever and she did dance "Monday". Aaron showed how much he really wants to win. I liked her pant dress, I thought it looked really nice. There was some footing issues even I saw and a small lift that she couldn't help because he lifted her too high. the dance was really cute though. the judges commented on how hard he is trying and that he's put in a lot and because of that there was a lost of fluidity. Joanna also did the quick step. She watched tapes of Mya's quick step I'm not sure if it helped her at all. It was so hard to follow their feet they were moving so fast. I liked her dress but wish it was a different color. The judges were disappointed. Kelly did the foxtrot.In practice she is so easily distracted. She brings her dogs with her and lap top and cell phone. Louie locked them in a box! Not the dogs though. Have you ever seen her two little dogs? They are puff balls with feet. her dress was a greenish color and looked good with his suit. I liked her dance it looked great as far as i could tell. Donny did the Viennese waltz. He said in practice the he has no time and isn't having fun dancing anymore, so Donny took some time to "reboot". As always, he has posture issues but the dance looked good. It actually moved me enough to have a tear in my eye... I can't explain it but it could have been the music.
The Latin Round
Mya did a 70s style samba. I liked the outfits and they put in some disco moves. She has offically gotten the first 30 of this season! Aaron did a 90s style samba. I liked the black and yellow outfits, of course that could be because I'm a Steelers girl. The dance looked good and he looked like he had a lot of fun with it. This is the first latin dance that didn't really have latin music that i really liked. They danced to an alternative genre song. the judges liked it. Joanna did a futuristic Paso. In practice her feet were moving but her mind and body weren't. The outfits were crazy and they did hair and make-up to match. They did a lot of side by side dancing. This may have been my favorite dance for the night. Kelly did a 60s theme jive. Apparently this is her favorite decade. She instantly thought Beatles and Louie looked like one. She had on a bright green wig (it looks like the pink one I bought for Halloween) and I want her shoes. Shes done a music video that themed the 60s so she was really happy to be able to contribute for once. Donny did the 80s style paso. They did an 80s rock theme, so, to me I thought he looked like Michael Jackson's "Thriller" and she looked like Madonna. The dance looked so much fun. Carrie Ann said that she thought they crossed over into something frightening. I really liked it though.

Monday Night Football!!!!!
Go Steelers! Today is Monday and since I live in the Pittsburgh area... Steelers play the Broncos tonight on ABC.... No dancing tonight. It will be on tomorrow at 9 am and I will be recording it so that i can watch it later. I will also be recording the results show so i will have to watch them asap. I'm glad they are showing tonight's show tomorrow morning. I was a little worried they weren't going to show it at all and I'd have nothing to blog about. I'm' sure i could have found something dancing related to chat about. which actually brings me to tonight's blog I thought since i couldn't watch dancing I'd catch up on here a little even thought i still have to watch last Tuesday results show. Finding time to do that is so hard to do. I have at least 20 hours of programing on my DVR that is mine alone... this doesn't include what my parents DVR that i also will sit and watch. Whatever made me take 5 classes this semester I will never know. I almost did it again next semester too! I transferred in after I received my associates and one of my electives that transferred is now actually available at Pitt so one of my classes was null and void. thank god. Working part time with all of this. I miss last semester when i had two days during the week when no one else was home to get work done. Next semester will be back to that way. it will be so nice. time to get work done. I work 3 days a week at a school for kids with autism. and go to school the other two days and not having days during the week where i can get appts. in and get shopping/running done takes up so much time. My mom also has a problem with leaving me alone when I'm doing stuff for school. she's real big on doing well in school but loves to bug me. I don't think she knows she does it and she scares me to much to tell her. So I try desperately to get stuff done on days off so that way I can do nothing when my parents are home. I will have to make special time to get all my dancing with the stars watching done.

Costume Designers! 11-2-09
On the Nov. 2nd show the celebs designed the pros costumes. So in saying that I didn't pay close attention to the actually dancing. I was looking more at the dresses that the guys designed. They did this last year and it's one of my favorite things on dancing. With that here are some things from the show.
Michael did the foxtrot. The dress he designed was a very pretty color. It was a wine color with light pink. He may not be one of my favorite dancers but this may be one of my favorite dress. After when asked about the dress he said it was Barney inspired. He was watching Barney and he picked a purpley color.
Donny did the quickstep. Her dress was a shimmery gold with blue jewels. I liked the color but it had a raggy look to it. the dress had strips to it, I'm not really sure how to explain it. If i see a picture of it I'll post it up here. As for dancing Donny is having posture issues.
Mark danced the samba with Anna. Lacy is sick. Tony danced with him at practice and then Anna. Her dress was Black and Turquoise. Her hair was nice too. I'm not sure if he designed this dress or not since Lacy didn't dance. He had 48 hours to learn a routine ( 2 actually) because he learned one with Lacy and then had to learn one with Anna. The judges didn't like it.
Mya did the foxtrot. I liked the suit but how hard it is to design a suit... I'm sorry. Hey for all I know its a real pain to make one. I've never made one. Cloris Leechman came to practice to help her out.
Aaron danced the jive. He had an NFL trainer help in practice. I like the pink fringe dress he designed. I enjoyed the dance and he got 10s.
Kelly danced the salsa. she had a dress with fringe one... Louie's pants also had fringe on. They were awesome! The question is how mad was he at Kelly for those pants. Considering that the pants came off........... to plain black pants under probably not a lot. Part of her dress came off too. Kelly had some seriously hateful eyes. I liked it.
Joanna did the rumba. Derek had a beach dream/fantasy. It was funny. I liked her dress and she went basic on Derek's outfit. She did a hop and Carrie Ann saw it but didn't penalize her.
Team Dances! Team Pasa and Team Tango competed for a team score. Everyone got to have their own moment to dance but there are no individual scores. the group as a whole gets one score. Team Paso had Mark, Aaron, Mya and Michael. Practice seemed a ball of people talking and throwing out suggestions. Their dresses really looked "bullfighterish". Team Tango was Kelly, Joann, and Donny. Kelly has already had a horrible tango in past shows. Pros came into practice with a routine already to go. All they had to do was teach. I like the black ball gowns. The part where they had the girls "fighting" over Donny was funny.
