“Did you not like Mel B DWTS and Alesha Dixon, Jill Halfpenny on SCD as well?”
I loved them all. I wanted Mel B. to win and was disappointed when she didn't. Like I said I am conflicted about prior dance experience. On principal it seems only fair.
My point it is never going to be a level playing field and that is what people seem to want every year.
But then people will complain that the dancing quality is poor. If they have experience and do really well then they have an unfair advantage. Then there are all the complaints about personality no matter how well they dance - too reserved, too out there, no personality, too much personality, too this, too that. There is just no way you can have a celebrity who will please all the viewers.
I think that it is good that they mix it up with people who have dance experience, some dance experience and no dance experience. I can see why the network brings a celebrity on who has dance experience. It raises the bar for everyone and increases the competition. I think I now get where Dmitry is coming from - if Mya comes out and does a safe dance no one is going to impressed. She has to up the difficulty level for her level of skill (with no gimmicks though).
Then every so often you have a celebrity like Apolo who had no dancing experience and it was magic on the dance floor. Who was the best celeb without dance experience on SCD because to be fair I have not seen enough videos to make an opinion.
It would be an interesting season indeed if they could find 12 celebrities who have nada dance experience and let them have at it. Would it be possible for the BBC or ABC to pull it off?
Not unexpected though. The celeb who has finished at the bottom of the leaderboard for the last 2 weeks should have gone.
That dress was horrible (IMO). And I didn't think much of the song either.
