Seeing Shawn on this just is weird to me...its like she was such an amazing olympian and now shes on this crap on the media? Its just not...idk her to me. I really liked her as she was. A solid amazing gold medalist<3
@RachelandKyleHN it may seem weird, but it brought her out of her shell more, and still she stayed herself...she's not like these usual stars with brodcasting her personal life like some, she won't even say her bf's name to keep her profesional and social life different...really is a good thing.
Shawn looks like she is having fun, which is all that really matters. Think about spending your grade school years with only gym equipment to look at. All of her youth training for the Olympics, is it really worth the Gold? But at least she has a lot more living to do.
Shawn Johnson is fun to watch but I don't think they matched her w/ the right guy. He's so overanimated all the time. And he reminds me of Michael Tucci's character "Sonny" who played Travolta's grease monkey sidekick in the movie Grease.
i am not saying in this dance but they shouldve pulled a chelsie hightower move and added some grinding i mean not a lot just enough for them to take their clothes off and have sex
@JessyeO1 I totally noticed that...and thought the same thing! I know the couples don't get to pick their song (except the freestyle), but I wondered why they'd give that song to someone, especially being a mediocre dancer like Wendy. They also used this song on season 2, I think it was with Mario Lopez.
I loved the dance routine these two did that culminated in Mark Ballas sporting a full-on boner on national television. It must have been "A LITTLE" bit embarrassing for them both!
@igotyourmoney23 It is choreographed. The reason it's called freestyle is because the couple gets to choose everything, music, costumes, moves, all the works. There's no rules and the couple does whatever they want, unlike other dances done on the show, where the couples are all given a dance style and the song and there are rules in them.
I can watch this over and over. Love the song, Mark had great choreography (if he did most of it). Costumes are ok. I think my favorite part was when he puts her down and they do that run forward with those punches. I didn't watch DWtS then, wish I did, but it looks like a tough routine to do and I think the height difference only shows when they get off the stage and join up, he looks likek he has to jump around to keep up with her smaller steps.
@crazymonkeyfarm01 There's no official date yet but somewhere around March 21st is a strong possibility. Keep checking the Dancing with the stars page on abc.com and they'll eventually set up an official date :)
@radicalbacon umm no she got muscle. unlike what u have. shes a gymnast puls u need fat to protect them and she only got an inch of fat. And she really skinny for a gymnast with muscle....... trust me o_o
this is amazing and they are both amazing dancers, but i think Shawn Johnson has an unfair advantage cus she can easily do flips and handstands and the splits. Shes been doing that all her life.
@atomcrush I'd have to disagree, she definitely has gained bodyfat after the olympics, when she stopped training for a while. I mean... she has boobs and hips and you can't see her ribs. I think she looks beautifully healthy in DWTS -- something someone with almost zero bodyfat couldn't pull off at all.
I wondered that every single time! Half the time on the show it sounded like he was introducing him as Bark Ballas. I thought it was the accent and first, but nope not really. I think he said Bark. This dance was so fun. :)
If it wasn't for this dance, Shawn would've lost. This was truly the dance that won it for her. Not because they got the highest score, but because it kicked so much ass.
the girl doesn't have an ounce of fat on her. it's ALL muscle and considering she's like 4'11" it looks like what you would call "fat" but i can guarantee you she's healthier than probably 95% (if not more) of the American population.
Compared to this freestyle this last season freestyle with Donny and all they completely SUCK!!!!! I was embarassed for Carrie Anne when she had the balls to say Donny freestyle was in the same league as this one. I think she lost her damn mind there.
i love shawn!!!
