Carson Kressley, Sabrina Bryan or Kyle Massey: Who Should Join Dancing With the Stars All-Stars?

Posted on August 3, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Carson Kressley, Sabrina Bryan and Kyle Massey are presently vying for the 13th and final spot on the Dancing With the Stars All-Stars cast . The winner, determined by fan voting on ABC’s Dancing With the Stars official site, will be announced Monday, August 27 as the last All-Star. The trio appeared on GMA this week to stump (and dance) for votes. The three contenders did some good-natured campaigning, as well as move-busting, as they vie for the spot on the show’s first-ever All-Star season. Pamela Anderson, Emmitt Smith, Kelly Monaco, Shawn Johnson, Melissa Rycroft, Kirstie Alley, Joey Fatone, Drew Lachey, Gilles Marini, Apolo Ohno, Bristol Palin and Helio Castroneves are already on board for the fall. Bristol and Kyle, of course, were rumored to be dating, and he claims Lifetime stole his idea for Bristol’s reality show … so that could be awkward. Who do you think the 13th cast member should be?

Beyonce Labels Fake Pregnancy Rumors as "Ridiculous, False"

Posted on October 12, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Yes, folks, Beyonce really is pregnant. Following an appearance on Australia’s Sunday Night , in which she revealed her due month and said the impending baby has already ” changed her life ,” a positively nutty rumor sprang up: the singer was donning a prosthetic baby bump because a surrogate was actually having her child, yet she wanted the publicity that came along with it. All the chatter stemmed from this photo. Notice the supposed “fold” in her stomach? Forced to address the supposed conspiracy, Beyonce’s publicist Yvette Noel-Schure gave a statement to ABC News that simply labeled the talk of a pretend pregnancy as “stupid, ridiculous and false.” We’d have to agree. Do you? Watch the full interview and then vote: Do you believe that Beyonce is pregnant?

Dancing With the Stars Results: Who Held On For One More Week?

Posted on October 12, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Plenty of stars delivered strong routines on Dancing With the Stars Monday night. Chaz Bono was one of them. Chynna Phillips and Nancy Grace were not among them. While you never know going into the results show, it seemed semi-clear who had a better path to safety than others. And it turned out our intuitions were correct. When the audience’s votes were factored in along with the scores, Chaz was safe. As was Rob Kardashian , who was inexplicably in the bottom three, but survived. Week after week, it’s anyone’s game. One slip and you’re gone. So who got the chop among the top nine competitors when the week’s results were unveiled? Who is safe to tango their way into our hearts another week? Carson Kressley had the lowest score of the week, with Grace and Chynna close behind. One of the three is sitting on the sidelines right now. But which one? Follow the jump to find out … Chynna Phillips , despite being considered a favorite just a few short weeks ago, is now heading home. She was surprised, but blamed only herself. “I’m disappointed and I’m sad,” the Wilson Phillips singer said. “But I have to take responsibility. I messed up and… I have an amazing partner.” “I love you, Tony,” she told Mr. Dovolani. “He’s been there for me 100 percent the entire way and I’m very grateful to have had the opportunity. Thank you everyone who voted for me.” And then there were eight. Can anyone stop the Ricki Lake express, or is she on a collision course to the finals with J.R. Martinez? We shall see. Did Chynna deserve to be voted off DWTS?

Hulk Hogan Speaks on Abuse Allegations, Lost Fortune

Posted on October 3, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

He’s been accused of abuse , he’s lost millions of dollars and he has a strange relationship with his daughter. And now Hulk Hogan is fighting back. In an interview with Good Morning America , the former WWE and WCW star responds to allegations made against him in a new memoir by his ex-wife, saying of Linda: “If I beat her up for 23 years, why didn’t we talk about this at the divorce? And why, all of a sudden, is it coming out now, when her book’s come out?” Hulk Hogan Good Morning America Interview Hogan – who is now married to Jennifer McDaniel and promoted a new reality show that focuses on the world of midget wrestling – also says he’s learned a valuable lesson over the recently-troubling years: “Be a father first. Don’t put a priority of being a friend with your wife first, or a friend with your kids first… That’s the one place I dropped the ball.”

Dancing With the Stars Week Three Preview: Who Will Step It Up?

Posted on October 3, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Dancing With the Stars delivered a bit of a surprise last week with the ousting of Elisabetta Canalis after she performed relatively well. It all goes to show: No one is safe. Every week, you dance for your life. So far, Chaz Bono has gotten through on confidence and personality, while Canalis and Metta World Peace are watching this season on the couch. Who will be the third celeb voted off DWTS this fall? So far, J.R. Martinez, Ricki Lake, Chynna Phillips and Kristin Cavallari have looked good. Even Rob Kardashian has stepped up his game in a big way. Carson Kressley and Hope Solo have been entertaining, but could be at risk if they falter. David Arquette? He narrowly avoided elimination last week. It’ll take more than another Nancy Grace nipple slip to carry the news pundit through. Bono’s gonna have to show some real improvement as well. It’s impossible to tell from week to week, but right now, Nancy, Chaz, Hope, Carson and David look to be at greater risk than the other five dancers. What do yo think? Who will win Dancing With the Stars?

‘Dancing With The Stars’ Says Ciao To Elisabetta Canalis

Posted on September 28, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

David Arquette and Chaz Bono join George Clooney’s ex in bottom three. By Kelley L. Carter Elisabetta Canalis Photo: ABC Networks In the final minutes of Tuesday night’s “Dancing With the Stars” elimination show, it was George Clooney’s ex-girlfriend who was given the boot. Elisabetta Canalis and her partner, Val Chmerkovskiy, were eliminated after landing in the bottom three alongside David Arquette and Kym Johnson and Chaz Bono and Lacey Schwimmer. The Italian actress and host seemed a bit jarred when it was revealed she was the contestant leaving in week two, considering that she and her partner had impressed the judges with a big improvement from last week . “I’m not going to say much. I’m just going to say this: It’s not great, but it was better than last week,” head judge Len Goodman said before scoring her Monday. Tonioli disagreed, saying, “The gears were grinding, the engines were hot. The pistols were pumping. Keep working.” Canalis ultimately scored 21 out of 30, which placed her right in the middle of the pack and above Hope Solo and Maksim Chmerkovskiy, Arquette and Johnson, Carson Kressley and Anna Trebunskaya and Bono and Schwimmer. Canalis, who looked to be holding back tears, expressed how much she enjoyed her short time on the show: “I want to thank everybody, because they made me come here! Thanks to the public and everybody who voted for us. It was a great experience.” Chmerkovskiy, a newcomer who also is Maksim’s younger brother, said he was very proud of his celeb partner. “I wish I did better for you. But I’m very lucky to be here,” he said. Were you surprised to see Elisabetta go? Let us know in the comments!

Dancing With the Stars Week Two Preview: Who’s Going Strong? Who’s Going Down?

Posted on September 26, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

After a premiere that was overshadowed by Two and a Half Men in the ratings, Dancing With the Stars returns for its second week of competition this evening. In week one, the controversial Chaz Bono proved he’s got the confidence and personality, if not the natural talent, to stick around at least a little while this fall. Metta World Peace? Out. Chynna Phillips, J.R. Martinez and Hope Solo turned in strong performances, while Nancy Grace, Rob Kardashian and Elisabetta Canalis ended up at the bottom. Can those three rebound this week? Possibly, given a little experience and the first-week jitters out of the way. But it’ll be a tall order to top the favorites. In the middle of the pack, Ricki Lake, Kristin Cavallari, Carson Kressley and David Arquette could all make a move or fall flat. Expect a little of each. Our picks to go home this week? Rob, who acts like he doesn’t want to be there, or Nancy, who may be too polarizing to draw enough fan support. Who will win Dancing With the Stars?

Could Chaz Bono Actually Win Dancing With the Stars?

Posted on August 30, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Chaz Bono’s joining the Dancing With the Stars cast gave the show major publicity, but it wasn’t just done as a stunt or a favor to the LGBT community. Based on what we know of past seasons and those who have made long runs on the show, Chaz – if he can dance at all – could be among the favorites. Below, THG breaks down the prospects for the man formerly known as Chastity Bono (with girlfriend Jennifer Ella, below) and the rest of the dancers … Favorites: David Arquette, Chaz Bono, Ron Artest, Hope Solo, Ricki Lake If anyone has the notoriety that they can utilize to gain interest and build fan support, it’s Bono, who will be paired with a female professional dancer. David Arquette is probably the show’s second biggest “get,” especially after his separation from wife Courteney Cox and subsequent bizarre behavior. We don’t know if either one can dance, admittedly. But assuming there’s any kind of rhythm there, each could go on fairly sustained runs this fall. As for Ron Artest (the player soon to be known as Metta World Peace), pro athletes tend to do well, and Ron is very likable beneath the crazy exterior. Ditto for U.S. World Cup soccer goalie Solo. Ricki Lake, meanwhile, fits the Jennifer Grey mold, having starred in a dance-themed cult classic film. Underdogs: Nancy Grace, Rob Kardashian We could well be proven wrong here, but these would be our picks to go home first. Nancy Grace is a polarizing figure and likely won’t change that. As for Kardashian, DWTS is not necessarily kind to reality stars. The fan base is a little different, so he’s likely coming in as one of the lesser-knowns. Plus, even those that love the Kardashians kind of hate the Kardashians. Dark Horses: Chynna Phillips, Kristin Cavallari, Elisabetta Canalis Phillips has a fan base from her music and acting, even if each is a bit dated. Canalis is George Clooney’s ex . That’ll have people curious for sure. Cavallari could be a bust or the real deal. Remember Audrina Patridge? She finished fifth her season and was totally robbed from advancing further. Kristin’s pretty, sassy and could build some strong support. Maybe. Wild Cards: J.R. Martinez, Carson Kressley Martinez, the actor and Iraq War veteran whose body was 40 percent burned after a landmine explosion, will touch more hearts every week he lasts. The question is whether he can do well enough to get through the first few weeks where he may be the cast’s least-known member. Total wild card. Finally, Carson Kressley of Queer Eye For the Straight Guy . He’s fallen off the radar a bit in recent years, but still has a loyal following. How loyal? Stay tuned. This is just THG’s take. Now tell us yours: Who do you think will win DWTS Season 13? Vote!
