Okay. I know Wayne Brady — loved his show, then it got taken off and that silly Tony Dansa show was put on — what a crap show he had. I know Lucy Lawless — she was Zena Warrior Princes on TV. Alfonso sings well, but I’ve never heard Lea Thomspon sing. Now, am I going to watch this show —- NOT!!!! I’ll watch ‘So You Think You Can Dance’ — loved that show and was so happy Benji won, but this show — I’ll watch baseball/foodball instead!!! Did you all hear that Jerry Springer is going to be a dancer on ‘Dancing with the Stars’? I’m wondering if he’s going to bring his trailer trash people along to cheer him on? What ya think?

Hi Emma: Yup, all the Brit shows are coming to New York. Next thing we’ll be getting the one Nigel produced and hosted ‘The Enemy Within’. I kind of liked that show though. I also liked the one with the contestants that had to spend a week away at ‘training camp’ and had to decide which player would lose a challenge. In the end only one person would win the monies. I forgot the name of that show, though. They also had that in the US, but I liked the UK version better.

Jai Rodriguez will win this. If you haven’t heard him sing, download something from the musical "Zanna, Don’t"

Michelle williams looked and sounded like she had the flu with sore throat. She is very lucky to have been chosen to be in Destiny’sChild. I love them but Michelle cannot carry a note.
