Jennifer Grey and Derek Hough Explain Their Backstage Blow-Up

[Live2Dance321]

lol they can't "just walk " anymore because they did so much intense dancing

[shyla336]

Even if Brandy & Audrina made it to the finals with Jennifer, Jen would still have won with Derek. Yes, Brandy has confidence & experience with performing, Audrina may have potential but Jennifer was the complete package. And with Derek's choreography, hands down they would still be the champions of season 11. Jennifer has had no professional training but sh'e got the passion & great deal of natural talent that Derek had successfully translated to amazing phenomenal memorable dance routines!

ABC was not going to let Jen lose. They have been trying to get Jen to be on the show for years, what they didn't count on was the threat that Audrina became, then a much bigger threat Brandy became, so they had to put a stop to them resulting in a controversy. Just imagine Audrina Brandy and Jen at the finals, it would have been a different ending but I was rooting for Jen, very predictable ending.

@monos70 I know you posted this 4 months ago but I just saw it. ABC can't control how the public votes. Brandy and Audrina got good scores from the judges but did not get enough support from their fans. It would have been a good finale with the three of them,but Jennifer was still the best dancer,Even Maks said Jennifer was the best from day one. The only way it could be manipulted is by scoring and Brandy got very high scores in week 9 when she was eliminated. Jen 's fans came thru for her.

This is not staged, Jeniifer is an ARIES. Aries people LOVE to argue and fight, it makes them feel superior and alive.

Derek is a taurus, not compatiable. They can get along for a while but eventually they will get on each others nerves.

To those saying Jennifer whines a lot, she probably doesn't whine that often. Whatever gets put in your clip package is how you're portrayed, and the people workign on them chose to show her talking about her health problems. it doesn't mean she's whiny.

Derek is so cute and funny and Jennifer is just adorable!! LOVE THEM!!!

[Chuck1974]

It's all done for drama. The producers probably tell the professional dancers and the stars to show some emotion during rehearsals, while the camera is rolling, so they'll have some interesting footage for the program. Every season there are various meltdowns and blowups. That's why I love Pamela Anderson, she refused to play their game when she was on the show. Funny how she was the coolest and calmest of all of them, you'd think it would be just the opposite with her!

[ensarace]

@Chuck1974 You know maybe you are right, actually not maybe, I bet you are but on the other site this is so normal I would wonder if they tell me that you can spend 8 hours with somebody (you don't really n´know) everyday for 3 months and don't have any arguments. I mean I like Derek but I guess if he had to dance with me we both will argue at least 10 times during the whole show :)

[LovingHim51910]

LOL! I LOVE DEREK! He's such a goofball! But how could they have been in jeopardy last night?!?! They've been great these past few weeks, and I can't wait to see them perform in the weeks to come.

[PLeiaSolo]

@LovingHim51910 I just hit the wrong button on your post and voted down. Meant to hit up. Stupid button!!  LOL!

[Vahriotee]

who agrees that Jennifer shouldn't be on this? She was in the movie "dirty dancing" she's trained.. everyone on the show doesn't know how to dance at all... she's 50 and is still better then them, she's a professional...

[LelamariL]

@Vahriotee Wow, I guess someone hates Jennifer Grey and Derek Hough. Despite your negativity, they are one of the most entertaining and hard-working couples on the show. And how is dancing in a movie 23 years ago equal to being a professional. . . she has not continued dancing after that movie by her own admission. All of Derek's partners have constantly praised him as a teacher and a person. U call him a douche based on what the ABC producers have decided to put into their package this week.

[Vahriotee]

@LelamariL

I dont hate them. Yes their dances are AMAZING because she's had TRAINING. are you saying that training 23 years ago isnt training? because it is. She was a professional dancer for most of her young years. And I'm not calling him a douche based on what's been shown this week, I've watched this show since the FIRST season and I have seen Derek being rude to EACH of his partners.

[celticblend]

@Vahriotee actually, she wasn't a professional dancer. In Dirty Dancing, she learned 1 full dance.. the one she did at the end of the movie. The rest were partials and left to look clumsy and unfinished (because they were.) Then after the movie, she didn't continue dancing. I don't see how that equates to a whole life of training.

[PLeiaSolo]

@Vahriotee Derek Hough rude???? You must be getting a different version of the show than the rest of us. Rude is the LAST word I'd use to describe him.

[talk2minie]

@Vahriotee Brandy's on the show. Nicole, Erin (had training as a child), Mya, Mel B, sabrina, willa ford were on the show. It's about taking stars and teaching them ballroom dancing for our pleasure. They don't always win which is good because the show is about how they grow, the interactions and who the viewers decide to keep. We've come to learn that we do not always appreciate each others choices but we have to live with it and enjoy the show for what it is.

[nikki27673]

@Vahriotee along with what LelamariL and talk2minie said, in dirty dancing she played a girl who didn't even know how to dance.

she's really not a pro dancer. she's just got dancing and performing blood in her. it comes natural to her where as others, it doesn't.

[Vahriotee]

@nikki27673 lol yeah because they ACTUALLY hire people in the same situation as the character they play.. so OF COURSE she doesn't know how to dance since Baby didnt know how to dance right? (:

[Vahriotee]

DEREK is a DOUCHE! he's always being rude to his dancers! He thinks he's the nicest guy ever, what the heck lol! he's a great dancer though!

[madison12peter]

@Vahriotee he is the nicest guy ever.

[laurenrokz14]

I think that it is nice of her to talk about Patrick Swayze and sometimes she does whine too much but that is only because she cares and I love her and him and Derek Hough so much!!!!

[iveysucre]

Patrick Swayze has videos on YouTube about what a piece of work she was to work with a long time ago. What I think of her is that she thinks whining about her health will help her win. A lot of people have much worse health problems and they don't whine all the time.

[shyla336]

@iveysucre saw that post on you tube. From what I saw, Patrick Swayze "s comments about Jennifer were all positive. That she's able to be in the "moment", that makes her portrayal so real & amazing.And he said that's what made her character of "Baby" on DD so real!He did say she was not a trained dancer, but with a great deal of natural talent, that needed to be nourished . His role in DD was great ,he said , he being a dance instructor in real life.
