Thanks Lili.
Kellie's becoming my early favourite

(wish she wasn't with Derek, though )
Hi Fridge. I think she is gonna do fabulous. Derek said last week on twitter he was actually more excited about the second dance so that must mean she is going to deliver a great jive.

I am also disappointed that she went to Derek. I would have much rather it had been switched and Tristan had Kellie and Dorothy went to Derek. It would have been more interesting...seeing what Derek could do with Dorothy and how far Tristan could bring Kellie along with her energy and natural talent along. Plus I think that they would have had chemistry and been entertaining to watch. Can you imagine Kellie trying to understand Tristan?

Oh well, it is what is and TPTB make the decisions.

It is annoying Derek is given another great partner. I think he should have been given someone like Wynonna which seems fair. Has he ever got a duff act cause to my mind he has always been given the potential winner each series :L

It must be written in his contract for him to get such partners.

Me too. I absolutely hated his partnership with Kelly last season. 1st because Im not really a fan of hers and 2 because I think this showmance was fake as you can get and was mostly for the cameras and to get votes .
In defense of Val after reading what Tristan said last year about how they offered him Kelly and he turned it down because they wanted a showmance that tells me they strong armed Val into doing it. I wonder if he regrets it now?

Note to producers: It does not create higher ratings, in fact it turns the viewers off.

Anyway Val seems much more comfortable and ease this year. Perhaps it is because he can just get on with the dancing and they have given him someone who has the potential to go all the way.

I hate the cooked shomances. It is one thing if it happens naturally. Kara and Artem come to mind. That romance felt good to watch. But Val and Kellie were cringeworthy. It was obvious they were never a couple because nothing was ever written about them after the show ended.

same I would root for her if she wasnt partnered with Derek. I actually like him but Im just sick and tired of him getting the good dancers all the time. Give Tristan, the new boy, even Tony a chance ...its not fair

I agree SMH not fair for the other talented dancers. And what happened to him taking a break to pursue his great career at Hollywood ? About season 15 being is last ?

I usually hate showmances but Artem and Kara happened naturally and thats one of the things that I loved about their partnership

That would have been a much more imaginative set up. But it seems they just want more 'same old, same old'. Hey ho.

same I would root for her if she wasnt partnered with Derek. I actually like him but Im just sick and tired of him getting the good dancers all the time. Give Tristan, the new boy, even Tony a chance ...its not fair
BIB - Yes, I do too - at least I really enjoy his inventiveness and choreography, but they need to change the record with him now :yawn:
(and as far as Tony's concerned, I reckon Melissa was the first, second and last 'contender' he'll ever have on the show)

Zendaya and Val interview about the jive with a little bit of practice video. It is a good thing that Ian Waite does not review her videos...that girl dancing in her street shoes.

Radio Interview that Zendaya and Val did this morning with Ryan Seacrest.

http://teeninfonet.com/zendaya-discu...acrest-on-air/

I watched season 8 but I dont remember people making such a big deal about Shawn's age like they are doing right now with Zendaya; Its only week 1 for godsake ! Besides, Zendaya is a few months younger than Shawn when she competed in 2008.

This is a challenge for Val though because he has to choreograph it and make it age appropriate .
Since week 3 is prom week, I think TPTB will give them the rumba like they did for Mark in season 8 lol.

Very very annoying, the poor girl might become very self-conscious because of it. I know its such a huge difference but 1-its not the 1st time that the show had someone that young and 2- must these interviewers always ask it at least 5 times in interviews ??? urghh

Unless they get 10's or Zendaya gets 7's Zendaya will top the leader board combined or her and Kellie will tie.
