Chick of the Day: Joanna Krupa

Wil Reagan — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 04:13:05 +0000

Model Joanna Krupa came under fire after the unveiling of a provocative new PETA ad where she wears only a cross. The ad has been called “totally inappropriate” by the Catholic League and criticized by other religious organizations. PETA often uses shock tactics in their ads and demonstrations, and this one is more of the same.

You probably are familiar with the Polish-born beauty — and not just from Dancing with the Stars. She is a popular swimsuit model who appeared in Playboy back in the July 2005 issue, when she was named “The Sexiest Swimsuit Model in the World.” You can see more of naked Joanna this month as she is featured on the cover and in an eight-page spread in the December 2009 issue of Playboy.

Let’s take a closer look at Joanna Krupa.

Ochocinco On Dancing With the Stars?

Cherie Burbach — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 22:45:46 +0000

Do you think antics on the field and some fancy football in the end zone can help football players dance? A few of them have been on Dancing With the Stars (DWTS) now, and the latest rumor is that Chad Ochocinco will be joining the cast. The next cast for DWTS will be announced in January, with a show kick off in February.

Of course, if the Bengals make the Superbowl (pardon me while I laugh hysterically for minute…… hahahhaha…… okay I’m back), then the timing might interfere with his football schedule. Otherwise, he’d be cleared to go.

Would you watch DWTS if Ochocinco was on it?

Ochocinco On Dancing With the Stars?

Chuck Liddell is on Dancing with the Stars

Ryan Harkness — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 21:19:20 +0000

Chuck Liddell will be trading in the five ounce gloves for some dancing shoes as he prepares to show a different kind of footwork on the latest season of ABC’s Dancing with the Stars. The show premieres on Monday, September 21st at 8pm, and this season will feature the Iceman as one of the celebrity dancers.

This won’t be Chuck’s first time on the show. Several seasons ago, his then-girlfriend (or whatever he calls the many beautiful women he’s involved with at any given time) Willa Ford was a contestant and ABC did a little segment on her ‘good friend’ (wink wink) Chuck and the UFC. So as strange as this news is, it really isn’t all that surprising.

I’m still impressed that Chuck is willing to go on the show when he knows it’s gonna result in the 5 billion MMA blogs out there making fun of him for every step and mis-step. The only thing cooler than not giving a crap what people think is a jetpack, and those haven’t been invented yet. So I guess that makes Chuck the coolest cat on the planet.

Here’s the full lineup, courtesy of TVGuide.com:

1. Kathy Ireland, supermodel, author and fashion CEO of Kathy Ireland Worldwide
2. Macy Gray, Grammy-winning singer
3. Melissa Joan Hart, actress and one of the stars on our wish list
4. Mya, R&B singer and actress
5. Ashley Hamilton, actor-comedian and son of Season 2’s George Hamilton
6. Michael Irvin, ex-NFL wide receiver
7. Mark Dacascos, The Chairman on Iron Chef America
8. Donny Osmond, entertainer and brother of Season 5’s Marie Osmond
9. Kelly Osbourne, singer and daughter of Ozzy Osbourne
10. Debi Mazar, Entourage star
11. Chuck Liddell, light heavyweight champion
12. Natalie Coughlin, 11-time Olympic medalist in swimming
13. Joanna Krupa, model; most recently seen on ABC’s The Superstars
14. Louie Vito, snowboarder
15. Aaron Carter, singer and brother of Backstreet Boy Nick Carter
16. Tom DeLay, former House majority leader

Would Romo Do Dancing With the Stars?

Cherie Burbach — Sun, 14 Jun 2009 11:42:00 +0000

Entertainment Tonight caught up with Tony Romo recently and asked him some burning questions every football fan is dying to know. First up on the list was exactly how serious he and Jessica Simpson are. Answer? That he had no special announcements (read: engagement) to decree right now.

Shucks.

When asked what his dream date with Jessica would be, the ultra romantic said, “A little bite to eat and probably watch a football game.”

Wow – that’s romance! (Wonder if he makes her watch his highlight reel each week?)

Anywho, then Romo was asked THE BIG QUESTION, the one each and every football fan is dying to learn: Will he do Dancing With the Stars? (Hey, it’s a valid question! Athletes are showing up on that show all over the place.) Romo responded by saying he would “just embarrass” himself.

Oh well… it was worth a shot. But can’t you just see Jessica on that show?

Shawn Johnson Does World’s Biggest Bed Jump

Jeanne Dupuis — Tue, 12 May 2009 04:48:32 +0000

As luck would have it, just tonight I was sitting in my living room and I could see into the upstairs window of my neighbor’s house. Their son was jumping on the bed and getting considerable height. I kept thinking that it looked like he was having a lot of fun and it appears that he wasn’t the only one with bed-jumping on his mind!

Olympic gold-medalist, Shawn Johnson, decided to warm up for her performance on Dancing With the Stars this week by jumping on the World’s Biggest Bed in New York’s Bryant Park!

The gymnast led the kick-off of InterContinental Hotel Group’s “World’s Biggest Free Nights” offer (almost five million free hotel rooms are up for grabs!). An estimated 20,000 people worldwide (in New York, London, Paris and Shanghai) also participated. To register for the promotion and see all the action go to www.getafreenight.com/bedjump.

In the meantime, check out Shawn’s bed-jumping skills:

Lawrence Taylor on Dancing with the Stars

Cherie Burbach — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 22:43:19 +0000

Aren’t we all rooting for Lawrence Taylor on Dancing with the Stars? He looks so uncomfortable! I just want to give him a big hug and help him along. Well this week should be extra special because another football player and former Dancing alum Warren Sapp has given the original LT some encouragement.

According to People, Sapp’s advice was that, “You can’t worry about the judges. You just go out there and have fun. If you’re not having fun then why do the show?”

So true. Part of not being so stiff is just relaxing and enjoying yourself. Here’s a clip from LT on the show:

Hopefully this week he’ll feel more at east. Even so, do you think LT has a chance of winning?

Greene Ousted from Dancing with the Stars

Sandy Mitchell — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 13:49:37 +0000

So, I was wrong about Maurice Greene’s making through another round in ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars.” The 34-year-old, former Olympic Golf Medalist (100m and 4×100m in 2000) and his professional dancing partner, Cheryl Burke were voted off after Monday’s show, missing the semi-finals by one episode. Still want to see Maurice dance? He’ll be performing on the “Dancing with the Stars” 37-city tour, which begins December 18.

Maurice Greene on DTWS – Week Eight

Sandy Mitchell — Tue, 04 Nov 2008 16:52:13 +0000

Just when I thought that Olympian sprinter, Maurice Greene was going to be the next to be eliminated on the ABC reality show, “Dancing with the Stars,” he steps up his game. Last night the two-time Gold Medalist and his professional dancing partner, Cheryl Burke performed the Samba with flair and precision. Greene also performed well in the group dance, the Paso Doble. That performance is featured in the video below. While I don’t think he’s going to win the competition, I do think he’ll be around for a couple of more weeks. Good job Maurice.

Maurice Greene Hangs In on DWTS

Sandy Mitchell — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 17:06:06 +0000

Our remaining Olympian, sprinter Maurice Greene has made it to the half-way point on the ABC reality show, “Dancing with the Stars.” He and professional dance partner, Cheryl Burke danced the Salsa, earning a 27 out of 30 from the judges. No video is available of their performance, but there is this spoof of a political ad that for the show with Maurice and Lance Bass.

Next week, the remaining six pairs will learn two dances, one individual performance and a group dance. We continue to wish Maurice well.
