On the May 9, 2011 episode of Dancing with the Stars, Hines Wardand Kym Johnson danced the Foxtrot to Natalie Cole’s This Will Be (An Everlasting Love) as their first dance. Hines also proposed to Kym in the dance with a huge diamond engagement ring! As a jest of course. For their Insta-dance, they danced the Jive.

FIRST DANCE: Chelsea and Mark: 29
Hines & Kym: 28 (Hines proposed to Kym during the dance, for fun) Romeo & Chelsie: 27 Ralph and Karina: 25. Ralph is in major pain from a ruptured cyst. The doctor cleared him to perform but the pain persists. Len said he will take the pain into consideration of his score. Kirstie & Maks: 28
TMZ reports that Hines Ward, Pittsburgh Steelers star wide receiver and Dancing With the Stars contestant, was a passenger in a car which was pulled over by police in Los Angeles early this morning around 2 am.
That’s not the only newsworthy part. Apparently, the owner of the car who was in the car had reported the car stolen mistakenly so once the police pulled them over, they also drew their weapons and handcuffed Ward and the woman.
The woman later said she had reported the car stolen after an incident involving a valet, then somehow forgot to call the police back and retract her report.
Once the misstep was verified, Hines was released. Here is what Hines has to say about the whole thing on his Facebook page:
“The incident in the news that involved me getting pulled over. I want everyone to know that this was a complete misunderstanding. The police were just doing their job. Apologies were made and it’s now in the past. Moving forward… Hines”

On Monday’s Dancing with the Stars episode (May 2, 2011) Hines Ward and Kym Johnson danced the Tango. Luca Baricchi was their “Ballroom Great” coach. Hines said having a male perspective really helped him a lot. He also said getting a 10 is his next goal. Ex Pittsburgh Steelers Jerome Bettis came to Hines’ rehearsal and Hines worked extra hard to impress him because he said, “If I can impress Jerome, I can impress anybody.” It worked! Hines got his first 10 of the season, from Bruno, but it certainly was not my favorite dance of his this season. Here is what the judges thought:
Len (8): “It was a mixture for me. Some of it was full of drama, you were like a tiger stalking its prey coming out there sharp and crisp like a pickle! An then it goes into like a fairy mode and it was all a bit too dainty for me… Overall, I liked it very much. You’re a good dancer… but it could have been more determined.”
Bruno (10): “I like the way you play it. Big. Strong. Masterful. Determined. Yet you manage to maintain the slinky, smooth stealthy action of a (?) on the prowl… That was a killer Tango.”
Carrie Ann (9): “What you do that’s so unique and sets you apart is that you take command of every dance. But tonight you were a bit off balance, trying a new hold.”
Donnie (9): “My old dance teacher used to say to me ‘dance from your heart but use your head’ and I think you do that. You have a winning mentality…Your arms looked like American Airlines, looked like you were going to fly.”
Dancing with the Stars May 2, 2011 (week 7) had the theme of “Ballroom Greats,” meaning all the celebrity dancers received additional help in rehearsal from one more professional dancer: Either former Latin World Champion Shirley Ballas (Mark’s mom) or Luca Baricchi, former Ballroom World Champ.
The couples performed two numbers each, one a group dance and one the usual duo dance. There was a guest judge tonight in addition to our usual suspects: Donnie Burns, a living legend in the Latin dance world.
I won’t recap the group numbers and the judges’ comments, but I have placed their performance videos below. All you probably need to know is that each team got a total score of 30 out 40 (since four judges were voting) and that score was added to their individual dance scores for the night. Since everyone got a 30 for their group efforts after they danced, the group dance was basically a wash in the results.
There were two group teams. The first one was made up of the younger dancers Romeo, and Chelsea Kane plus the older but certainly not any less vibrant Ralph Macchio who pretty much held his own against the younger two. Of course the trio were accompanied by their partners, Chelsie Hightower, Mark Ballas and Karina Smirnoff. They did the Cha-Cha-Cha to Lady GaGa’s Born This Way. Here is their performance:
The second team featured Hines Ward with Kym Johnson, Kirstie Alley with Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Kendra Wilkinson-Baskett with Louis van Amstel and they also Cha-Cha’d to We R Who We R by Ke$ha. Watch below:
Now, let’s get to the individual dances:
Romeo and Chelsie Hightower stole our hearts last week with their Waltz but struggled in their Samba this week, ending up in a tie for last place. They danced to Say Hey by Michael Franti. In rehearsals, Romeo said he wanted to take the top spot all by himself after having tied for first place with Chelsea Kane last week. Shirley Ballas was their assigned coach. Romeo called her the “best Latin dancer in the world” and said she made him realize the difference between “shaking” and “shaaaaaking!”
The three of them had a blast in rehearsals and about his performance before he danced, Romeo said, “Tonight I am throwing a Samba party in my shoe, in my pants, I don’t care. Everyone is invited.” Unfortunately, after getting the judges’ scores, Romeo will not be in any mood to dance and I doubt that any of us are still invited.
Bruno (8): “You can definitely get down and shake it and there is plenty of fire there down below and you can raise the heat. You’ve got to get this bounce… You go side to side. It has to go up and down.”
Carrie Ann (8): “There was a lot of bounce going on but it wasn’t sending the Samba message. It was sending another kind of message, you know what I mean? Which is not a bad thing for a lot of girls out there. You have incredible potential as you showed last week. I think you are phenomenal but if you really want to go all the way, you really need to focus on your technique, and getting the right particulars of a dance.”
Donnie (7): “I’ve watched you Romeo, am really interested because I really admire you and I have watched you grow throughout the season. You started off, you did not think it was cool. You have achieved elegance and grace. But, baby, you may have a party in our pants, but you have an earthquake in your shoes when you hit the floor. Measured about a 6 on the Richter Scale.”
Len (7): “I didn’t like it. You talked the talk but you didn’t dance the dance. We’re at the nitty gritty stage of this competition. Anyone of the couples can win and any one of you can go home. It all depends on the performance Monday night. You’ve got to up your game.”
TOTAL SCORE: 30 Hines Ward and Kym Johnson danced the Tango. Luca Baricchi was their “Ballroom Great” coach. Hines said having a male perspective really helped him a lot. He also said getting a 10 is his next goal. Ex Pittsburgh Steeler Jerome Bettis came to Hines’ rehearsal and Hines worked extra hard to impress him because he said, “If I can impress Jerome, I can impress anybody.” It worked!

TOTAL SCORE: 36
Ralph Macchio and partner Karina Smirnoff danced the Quickstep to Paolo Nutini’s Pencil Full of Leadand wanted it to be their come-back dance. Luca Baricchi was assigned as their “Ballroom Great” teacher and Karina said he was exactly what they needed. Though Ralph seemed to be getting the steps, he called the Quickstep a “torture chamber.” Karina said the QT is brutal and hoped her 49-year old partner’s body does not break down from it.
Their dance was charming, playful, crisp, sharp, fast, and oh so much fun to watch! They were certainly back in top form. AND, I swear Ralph looked younger than ever, and certainly as young as he did in the first Karate Kid all the sudden. Karina was right when she told me recently, “Ralph is my very own Benjamin Button!” [Click here to read that story!]
Donnie (10): “Last week, you were my hero for how you pulled through. Your footwork and the way you articulated your feet in this Quickstep was fabulous this week. I thought you two rocked.”
Len (8): “I liked your energy. You had great movement. Your footwork was very, very good. It was clear and it was crisp. You upper body is a little bit loose and you need to get more stable, but overall you did a great job with a very hard dance and I am very pleased.” [LEN! An 8???? YOU SUCK! JK, but seriously, take it easy big guy!]
Bruno (9): “For me it was more than a Quickstep. It was how to grab a quick one at the Speakeasy… And you got it! That was so vivid, so vibrant. You sell it like no one else can. Really really good.”
Carrie Ann (9): “BOOYAH! You’re back. I’m so proud of you, Ralph. You had some really rough weeks. Full exuberance, passion and fun.”
TOTAL SCORE: 36 Kirstie Alley and Maksim Chmerkovskiy danced the Jive to Ritchie Valens’ La Bamba. Shirley Ballas was their “ballroom great” and helped Kirstie hone her skills. Maks looked more like a drill sergeant than a dance instructor, pushing Kirstie to her limits, but Kirstie said, “That’s why I like it.” Well, she liked it until she cried in the rehearsals because she was so frustrated. Of course Maks consoled her with his loving arms.
During the dance, Kirstie’s feet looked glued to the dance floor at times. Afterwards, she admitted she got caught up in the acting and got lost in the dance. “I just forgot to move my feet.” The judges were all over the board in their scores:
Carrie Ann (7): “I just love you so much because you bring nothing but incredible performances and complete entertainment. But it just wasn’t quite enough of the Jive, when you were side by side, you were not in sync…. You are looking amazing, I wish I had better remarks tonight.” Donnie (9): “I really like it. I buy it…They say in piano and music, the real talent is in between the black and the white keys, and in dancing, the talent is in between the steps. Mechanically you may not be the best dancer here, but you have a talent in between the steps and you fill it with your spirit of who you are…Don’t ever forget, you were a star before you even got here.”
Len (6): “It was fun, it was high energy, it was playful. You’re an actress and you act every dance beautifully. However, as a Jive it was most uneventful…I was disappointed. Your kicks were leaden [surprised no other judge but Len saw what I saw] and I could find very little to commend it.”
Bruno (8): “You might have gone wrong but as an entertainer, it was superb. It was so enjoyable to watch. It was hard for you to do the jive, but your musicality and your instinct was right on the money.”
TOTAL SCORE: 30
Kendra Wilkinson-Baskett and Louis van Amstel danced the Tango to Billy Fury’s Jelousy. Kendra said this was the hardest choreography for her to date and Louis even told her at one point during the rehearsals she looked like she was sitting on the toilet she looked so stiff. Luca Barricchi came to the rescue to co-teach the former Playmate and Kendra felt like she had finally nailed the Tango. Kendra did look confident on the dance floor, but I felt that she did not bend her knees at times when she should have.
Bruno (8): “You have never looked more elegant or sexy. You were hanging onto him a little bit too much… You don’t want to smell his armpits. You don’t really want him, let him chase you.”
Carrie Ann (8): “I’m sooo proud of you. That was nothing but sophistication, elegance, confidence. It was the most beautiful expression of sophistication I have seen from you the whole journey.”
Donnie (8): “I watched you last week break off the shackles and come out of your cocoon…The content of the choreography you tried was massively difficult… I thought you did a bloody good job.”
Len (7): “You coped very well with the demanding choreography. I thought the steps were clean and clear…I wanted it more crisp and as much as I hate to admit it, Bruno was right, you tended to cling on. You need to lift up [your chest]. I thought you did an excellent job with a difficult dance.”
TOTAL SCORE: 31
Chelsea Kane and Mark Ballas danced the Paso Doble to Deadmau5 Ghosts N Stuff and Mark wanted her to get into the character of the aggressive bullfighter but knew that would be hard for Chelsea because she is always laughing [IT’S SO TRUE, click here to see pictures of Mark and Chelsea which I took last week, she’s laughing in every single one!]. Mark enlisted the help of his mom, Shirley Ballas, to teach Chelsea how to be a bit more passionate and scary. Their dance was dramatic, intense, techno, modern, and as always, well-choreographed. They got a standing O from the audience but the judges were mixed, and half were left “confused!”
Len (8): “I get confused. It was too much aggression in my face, it had no refinement to it.”
Bruno (9): “Chelsea, the ball breaker, you came out here and danced with almost violent intensity. It was like a Quentin Tarantino Paso Doble. What you showed is range. The creativity of it was outstanding.”
Carrie Ann (9): “I usually love tradition. Tonight, I’m gonna say ‘Out with the old, in with the new!’ That was the best impression of the Paso Doble. Totally progressive, pushing the boundaries, pushed them wide open. Great job.”
Donnie (8): “You’re very together… I agree with Len, I was a bit confused. Instead of a matador, I got Hell’s Angels, a biker chic.” Bruno got mad, said that was 200 years ago and told him to go back to the time machine. OK BRUNO, you don’t like Donnie, do you?

April 25 episode of Dancing with the Stars was dedicated to “Guilty Pleasures” – Our stars had to dance to songs which they love but were to embarrassed to admit to before.
Kirstie Alley and Maksim Chmerkovskiy danced the Samba to Britney Spears Baby One More Time.
In rehearsal, Maks told Kirstie she has a pattern of panicking and needs to convince herself that she has the core of the dance down and forget the minuscule things she may not get. On the dance floor, Kirstie looked relaxed and seemed to be having a ball.
Len (9): “This season has been a series of mishaps…You’ve never fulfilled the potential I saw week one…until today! You had rhythm. Great choreography. Great job. Right up my alley.”
Bruno (9): “Oh yes, hit me, curse me one more time. You delivered the smoothest and most natural Brazilian north of Rio. Your wiggly bum sent shock ways through the airways.”
Carrie Ann (8): “Just like Britney, you’re back. And I am so glad to see because week one you commanded the dance floor…This is the way I want to see you dance because I want to see you in the finals.” TOTAL SCORE: 26
Chris Jericho and Cheryl Burke danced the Tango to Don’t Stop Belivin’ by Journey. Chris said he is a lead singer of the rock ‘n roll band Fozzy and Steve Perry of Journey was one of the biggest influences on his music career. The crowd loved the dance but the judges were in disagreement.
Bruno (7): “Chris, I know you went for a rock theme, but you turned into a lump of granite during this Tango. You lost timing so many times. You were not able to perform after that. Listen, in this business every body has an off night. I still believe you have talent. Tonight it didn’t happen for you. It was cold and uneventful and a bit lumpy.” Carrie Ann (7): “So harsh, geez. Wow. But on some levels I tend to agree with you Bruno. I think the pressure got to you this week. You lost the wild fun. I don’t think you were having fun this week. It was technically sound. It was tight, it was clean. But it wasn’t exciting and it wasn’t passionate.” Len (8): “Tango is not a fun dance. It’s a passionate intense dance. You had good posture, you had good hold. You had flex knees. Your footwork was good. It did lack a bit of intensity. But overall, I think you did an excellent job.” TOTAL SCORE: 22
Romeo and Chelsie Hightower danced the Waltz to a song I would not have pegged Romeo loving, My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion. Romeo said after he watched Titanic at the age of 8, he became Romeo, a hopeless romantic. He also loved that Leonardo DiCaprio’s portrayal of Jack in the movie made it look like anything is possible with love.
Their dance was simply, magical. It brought back all the emotion I felt the first time I watched Titanic. The duo flowed flawlessly across the stage. Romeo danced with such grace, I have a hard time believing he is only 21 years old. Romeo did kiss Chelsie at the end of the dance, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Of the kiss, Chelsie later said it wasn’t planned but Romeo admitted he was “just going with the flow. I saw Jack do it to Rose, and said, ‘Why can’t I do it?’ ” The dance was so moving, Romeo got the first 10 of the season!
Carrie Ann (10): “Every once in a while in a season, magic happens. That was magical. Romeo, something amazing is happening with you. You’re developing your own unique style. It has a very different flavor. You’re so emotionally connected to the dance that I get completely transported. Excellent.” Len (9): “For a young man, you dance with great maturity and it is completely unexpected. You come out with a Waltz that had romance about it. It was a very touching and poignant performance. I commend you.” Bruno (9): “Romeo DiCaprio, your ship will sail on and on and on. You achieved a new level of poise. finesse, attention to detail. I could see the love story unfolding before my eyes.”
Ralph Macchio and Karina Smirnoffdanced the Paso Doble to Everybody Dance Now by C&C Music Factory on Monday night’s Dancing with the Stars. During rehearsals, Ralph said “Maks comes on the stage, rips his shirt off. That’s not gonna happen here. I will find another way to be sexy.” Karina decided to incorporate the famous wax on, wax off moves Ralph knows from the Karate Kid into their dance to make him feel sexy.
Ralph was all Matrixed out for his outfit. During the dance, Karina slipped on Ralph’s big coat and fell but Ralph did not miss a beat. He gallantly grabbed her hand and they moved on like pros. That move alone should have gotten him a few extra points out of the judges. But the judges continued their pattern of scoring this duo way lower than they deserve and placed him second to last for the night.
Bruno (8): “I started to feel the fire. Furious with throbbing viral intensity. So I am very encouraged by it.”
Carrie Ann (8): “Ralph-San, Mr. Miyagi would be very proud of you for getting right back up and right into the dance. I’m very proud of you. I know Karina got a bit thrown off cause that was a pretty hard fall. It’s really about inspiring people and getting back up. And the way you got up put the rest of the dance to shame.”
Len (8): “I am not going to castigate you. I am gonna congratulate you. You pulled Karina up. You got her back on her feet straight away. You didn’t miss a bit. I am proud of you and you should be proud of yourself. Well done.”
TOTAL SCORE: 24
Chelsea Kane and Mark Ballas danced the Quickstep to I’m Walking on Sunshine by Katrina and the Waves. Chelsea said Mark is too competitive for her taste and she cannot relate. She said she is a cheerleader, she roots people on to win. So Mark had to work on her killer instinct.
Mark danced despite having been sore from an accident earlier in the day which had his ankle twisting pretty badly. Their dance was super cute, highly energetic and very in sync.
Len (9): “You managed to fuse high energy with control. Full on and great fun, well done.”
Bruno (9): “That was so bright and luminous, I’m getting a suntan. You had so much zest. You lost balance in the corner at the end. Otherwise, splendid.”
Carrie Ann (10): “Sometimes magic happens twice. That was amazing. You guys were so in sync. That was a difficult routine. Chelsea, way to go.”
TOTAL SCORE: 28
Kendra Wilkinson and Louis van Amstel danced the Samba to Ricky Martin’s Livin’ La Vida Loca. Louis told Kendra that the Samba is the party dance and should be her style. He also told her to shake everything God gave her and Kendra joked about her breast implants that God had not given her those. But at Louis’ insistence to shake it all, Kendra said in rehearsals, “I’m gonna shake my butt all the way to the top of the leaderboard.”
Kendra was spicy and spunky, and shook all that God did and didn’t give her. To finish things off, she got atop the judges’ table and shook the hell out of her bum! It was actually quite enjoyable to watch. This was by far my favorite dance of hers. Carrie Ann (8): “I have to recover. Oh My God, woah. I saw lots of information. That was a guilty pleasure my dear. You can shimmy like no other. You were so in your element in this dance. You proved yourself to be a contender.” Len (8): “The more you gyrated the more I palpitated. And you fulfilled one of my guilty pleasures [referring to her dancing on his table]. Last week, we had a spark. tonight, we had a fire.” Bruno (9): “Ladies and gentlemen, Dancing with the Stars presents the revenge of the stripper, part one. The attack of the killer boobs. Let’s do it now. Let’s get it over with Kendra. Come on, lets go for it. You got me.” TOTAL SCORE: 25
Hines Ward and Kym Johnson danced the Viennese Waltz to Boyz II Men’s End of the Road.Hines said he even dances with his pillow in his apartment so he can get as much practice time in as possible.
Their dance was charming and graceful and Hines looked as much a pro on the dance floor as he does on the football field.
Len (9): “Hines, you’re becoming the MVP, the Most Valued Partner because every dance you do is just great. As a performance and a dance, you’re second to none [Well, except the judges placed him second with the scores].” Bruno (9): “As a performance it was pure pleasure from start to finish. The chemistry you have with Kym is really flawless. You are made for each other. Like two birds in love, chasing each other on a spring sky. You couldn’t be more fluid. You look like you’re taking off. We don’t know where you’re going, but we want to go with you.” Carrie Ann (9): “Once again, an excellent performance but something strange was happening. It felt like you were thinking too much. I saw this look in your eyes that I have never ever seen since day 1, it looked like you were thinking about the dance rather than letting it flow through your body.” TOTAL SCORE: 27
