Denise Richards Leaves DWTS While The Woz Dances On

It seems like an alternate universe – hot mama Denise Richards is the second cast off of the current season of “Dancing with the Stars” while pudgy Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak scores low but continues on.

Someone is getting the ax on Wisteria Lane, and it’s not Susan Mayer. Actually, the mystery regarding, which of the lovely Desperate Housewives’ stars, is getting the boot from the show is really not that mysterious at all.

We may know who’s leaving, but lips are sealed regarding how Edie is set to depart from … Continue reading

Chewing the Fat on “Dancing with the Stars”

The next time Dancing with the Stars’ Cheryl Burke and Lacey Schwimmer gear up to kick it on the dance floor they may be aiming their feet directly at fellow pros Louis van Amstel and Maksim Chmerkovskiy’s rear ends. The ladies are reportedly displeased (to put it mildly) with the recent comments van Amstel and Chmerkovskiy made to TV Guide about the size of their… um… assets. “When I first saw these women this season, I said, ‘Guys, you know the camera adds 10 pounds,’” Chmerkovskiy complained to the magazine. “‘You have to do something about this.” Van Amstel also … Continue reading
