All I’ve ever known is how to hold my own.  But now I want to hold you too.

There was a railroad line on the road to Hell. There was a young man down on a bended knee. And, brother, thus begins the tale of Orpheus and Eurydice! It’s a love song. It’s a tale of a love that never dies. It’s a love song about someone who tries.

DWTS Finals (Night 1)

Just a few comments from tonight:

1. Frankie and Drew have been so fun to watch - their dancing isn’t quite on par with Jordan and Lindsey, but they are so joyful and fun, and I’ve really enjoyed watching them dance all season! They’re great guys and they’ve both improved so much!!

2. JORDAN!!!!! He’s a brilliant performer and I cannot wait to see where he goes throughout the rest of his career! He was born to perform and his charisma and stage presence goes unmatched in the competition. And one of my favorite things about him is how he constantly praises Lindsay. He never takes credit for his performances on the show and always takes the opportunity to point out Lindsay’s hard work and creativity. He is confident without being arrogant, and incredible stage presence as well as presence when he’s simply talking. He’s absolutely amazing!

3. LINDSEY!! She’s had a few rough weeks, which is totally understandable with all the travel and performances. But she is absolutely adorable and and absolute joy to watch!! That freestyle blew me away and it was the PERFECT dance for her and Mark to end on! Creative, challenging, unique, and perfectly fitting for both her and Mark. 

4. Emma, Witney, Lindsay, and Mark have been INCREDIBLE choreographers all season!!

5. Alfonso was completely out of line by saying that Jordan needs “a piece of humble pie.” That was very rude and uncalled for. And completely false. He should have NEVER said that and the producers should have NEVER let that go through. Like I said before, Jordan is confident, but I do not see him as arrogant at all! The package was meant to build up the finalists, and Alfonso’s comment made me angry and disappointed.

Oh! Forgot to include one more point...

Julianne’s dance gave me CHILLS!!! She is a beautiful, graceful performer, the choreography was incredible, and Mark and BC performed wonderfully! The story was so amazing, and I just don’t have the words to express how much I loved that dance!!

I really need to see him play Pierre. Or at the very least listen to him sing all of the songs from The Great Comet.
