I forgot all about this thread

It was pretty much given that Hope will be the one . It was all over Internet that she was sorry loser WHAT ?
After everything she has been trough ? I don't blame her she didn't want to talk about it and have all kind of interviews .

So Monday are the finals and I am just curious if will be JR or Ricki . Now , if is Rob , I know Kardashians took over the planet Earth .

she was kinda a sore loser. she hasnt been through anything more than say, Jr, or the others to make her more deserving etc...they are all deserving. her dancing had improved, but not enough, and to tell the judges they can kiss her ass BEFORE she even got her scores was childish at best. Even Maks was trying to make her stop, sort of. robs dancing has improved, way more than hers had, but he still isnt as good as the other two, but you never know, he could pull it off, but I am still all for JR!

Solo was treated quite poorly and stereotypically as a female athlete by the judges, especially the woman on this show. Cattiness galore by Carrie throughout and I got really sick of the put downs about her femininity- not all women are girlie-girls and sporty women have their own unique grace. And internal scars are as hurtful as external ones. Although, I think JR is wonderful and one driven person. His Mom sure gave him love and security as a single Mom which helped get him through some hella tough stuff!

She and Chaz have some legitimate complaints. And my heart goes out to her as it does for JR in terms of horrible life events. Rob is not a better dancer than Hope Solo, period. Rob is far behind the technique and musicality of a male lead, which JR has. ahe and Riki also have some raw dance talent- Rob does not. He seems like a nice guy, but it is BS that he is among the top 3 in the finals. Totally Hollywood politics. The male judges see that he is not at the level of JR as a male lead. His footwork is not great.

I don't think she dances as well as Jr or Riki, but she should beat out rob at this point. He has no fluidity and does not have the athleticism that Hope, JR and Riki have in general- and part of dance is athleticism.

JR & Riki ought to be the finalists with one of them the winner. It's hard, because both have become serious dancers throughout the competition and obviously put in the hours.

If Rob takes this, I'm with you- it was bought and paid for.

I was so disappointed that this happened. I tried to keep it into perspective, it's all about ratings, not about Dancing. Please, this is not the E channel and the KarTRASHians are not invested in this channel. I thought this was a disney channel(?)......so much for that.

Hope and Mak's were not invited to make a guest appearance on Jimmy Kimmel live/ nor Good Morning America. Unlike all the others in the past. Instead, a decision was made prior to Hope and Maks getting voted off the Island, the producers elected to promote the remaining three
on Kimmel and GMA. Hope went home to the state of Washington and was tweeting away. She is expected to make an appearance, along with Chazz and Carson et/el Tuesday. I WILL NOT BE WATCHING. not that they will care what I am doing.

I have to agree with Hopes' comments, They(the judges) did seem to want her off the show. KarTRASHian, week after week, looks to Cheryl for his next step...he doesn't know his dances. (similar to how Mark Ballas used to count out the dances to Bristol Palin).

I'm hoping DWTS does not go in another direction with Maks. Hope will be fine. In fact, she has her sights set on an olympic gold medal. Carrie Ann and KarTrashian Rob (who has never even had a job) can only dream what that must be like.

I wonder if Beach Volleyball Star Misty May Treanor, would not have been injured earlt in DWTS, and competed longer.....if the view of a female athlete would be different?

I said it before and I'll say it again. I thought Hope was sexy. I thought Maks brought her a long way. They danced well together.

there have been other female athletes on the show, Shawn Johnson, Kristy Yamaguchi. Both won. Kristy was an easy pic due to her gracefullness from her skating, but Shawn was stocky, short, and not your "typical" female shape, but she still won. *I* feel, Hopes attitude towards any criticizm was her downfall. She got suspended from a soccer team for critisizing the coach for not playing her in a game the team lost, and she was was telling these judges to kiss her ass before they even scored her performances. She WAS good, she did improve, but she still wasnt up the caliber of other dancers, and yet felt she was entitled to higher scores. dont forget, half the scores that sent her home, came from the viewing audience. I felt bad for Maks, he is an amazing dancer, and just once, I would like to see him win!

Since it's reality T.V., we don't even know if that is *true*

After the arranged wedding, I am skeptical of all reality television.

to me, Robs first dance was better than JR's, and it pains me to say that! But JR's freestyle was FAB!!! I told my honey that there was a good chance Rob could come from behind and win this, i dont want him to but...........Rickis freestyle was weird and not very good IMO. Still hoping for JR, we shall see tonight!

JR has some great technique and has developed so much! Rob too, but he is just not the best. Riki has some real talent. Rob has developed too- but remains stiff. I know I have a rich-kid bias going about him and he is probably a really good guy. But all of those 10s- UGH!! NO!! His steps are not clean.

I loved JR's free-style!! The drum beat interpretation was amazing. He did not do as well wity the other routine and he said he was off, but that "7" was wrong!!

I just feel like it is rigged and frankly wish there was no audience voting. But that is what draws people to the show and $.

I think I am going to be mad tonight at the results.... Either JR or Riki should be the winner and I think Hollywood politics will be present.

It will be kewl to see all the others there tonight and overall, I feel like Chaz did a great job. He isn't really someone that I see as a trans spokeperson, but, I think it was great he did the show. But, it was so damn painful to read some of the things people said on blogs and FB, etc.

GO JR, GO Riki!!
