Only four celebrities left on Dancing with the Stars. I remember before the season started, I told Mark Ballas he would go far with Bristol Palin.
I had a feeling she would have a huge following. But even in my wildest dreams I would not have expected Bristol and Mark to make it to the semi-finals given the scores the couple has received from the judges to date.
But to have outlasted athletes such as Rick Fox and tonight’s exitee, NFL superstar Kurt Warner, now, that is either impressive or mind-boggling depending on which camp you fall under: The camp that roots for the underdog or the camp that is at a loss on how this young girl from Alaska has more fans dialing in to vote for her than celebs two or three times her age, with more perceived popularity and who have achieved far many more accomplishments.
Regardless, nice guy Kurt Warner has danced his last dance. And Kurt left Tuesday night’s results show with as much class as he has shown all season. He said,
“You know, I learned a long time ago that life isn’t always about winning and losing competitions. But it’s about relationships, it’s about impacting people—and so I thank everybody at Dancing With the Stars because it gave me an opportunity to impact people and build relationships. So that’s really what it’s all about.”
So, now, Brandy, Jennifer Grey, Kyle Massey or (take a deep breath) Bristol Palin will win the much sought after mirrorball trophy. Who do you think it will be? Who do you think it should be?
