They would be out of the reach of any TV show. But those aren't the ohnly real stars or celebrities out there. DWTS had Florence Henderson on this season, and I would say she is a TV star, even if her biggest show was forty years ago. They also had John O'Hurley and George Hamilton, whom I'd put in the same category as Miss Henderson. And they've had sports stars and music stars as well. So why do they insist on putting people like Bristol Palin and these reality show folks on? They aren't stars by any stretch of the imagination!Terence Towles Canotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18397088843628331615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7210602.post-85297896750883714172010-11-23T08:33:25.977-06:002010-11-23T08:33:25.977-06:00Well, I don't think the show would survive if ...Well, I don't think the show would survive if their criteria was real stars or celebrities. Because really do the likes of George Clooney and Angelina Jolie have time to do DWTS? Nope. And do they need it for their fame? Nope. But these pseudo stars do need any limelight they can get and this is a good way to get it. Maybe they should have called it something else.Raquel Stecherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02687110907002450794noreply@blogger.com
