Thanks for all that info. Having been in the competitive ballroom world in a previous life, I'm not surprised to see the apparent level of jealousy and mistrust that ol' Craig appears to be showing. The sparkly outfits and makeup are pretty much just theatrical costumes. It's not who you are.
Some of the quietest people (me included) transformed in appearance with all that stuff, but just returned to being "just us" once the performance is over. It's endlessly frustrating. Of course, there were our share of ... uh ... loose men and women, but I can usually spot them. Sara doesn't have that look. Heck, even her arm styling in the rumba was SO conservative - she was barely letting loose.
She's been involved with Hannity's Freedom Concerts in the past, and her song about the teen girl on the bus was quite pro-life, IIRC.
Thanks...
Oh, was that the rhumba she was doing? She kept saying the party dance and I thought it was the samba. When they never play the appropriate music, it's hard for me to tell.
I really *was* paying attention all the time, lol - but just had a memory fog on that one. I thought it was *quick-quick-quick-quick-quick-slow* sort of like a conga line. Shows what I know!
That's why there are judge votes and audience votes, lol. I certainly do understand about the bling factor in dance competition. My best guy friend did that for a while - ballroom - and I never could "just dance" with him after that if we were all out at a club.
And you're so right about her arm movements - very conservative. I'm even farther towards Al Gore than she and Tucker Carlson were, myself - when having to do proscribed routines. I thought she did really well and was really starting to blossom.
Hoo boy. Not sure I included the "80-pound nanny" part in previous posts. Probably left it out on purpose.
In the first interview she did, the friend/nanny Alison talked about how Sara made her anorexic a few years ago. She said Sara wanted to lose some baby weight, so they challenged each other to lose some poundage.
Evidently, Alison became quite obsessive about it, getting down to 69 pounds. (I don't see how this is Sara's fault at all!) Sara got pregnant again and had to "quit" the "contest." Meanwhile, Alison had to no longer be the nanny and had to go into treatment for the eating disorder in 2004. Sara paid for it, then hired her back as her personal assistant in 2005.
Not only that, but Sara was such a good friend that she started doing Public Service Announcements about recognizing and fighting anorexia, even witnessing about her own "best friend" that she almost lost to the disorder.
So, today, on the TV tabs, the theme was that Sara's allegations (which, by the way, were said today by her lawyer to all be verified and on tape) are causing the "80-pound nanny" - her weight after treatment - to go back to her disorder.
Alison said "I heard what Sara had said about me ..." then the TV host finished the sentence saying she was close to relapse. I'm thinking "heard Sara and did what? immediately stopped eating?"
But the friend/nanny stuff didn't stop there. They got her mother on, near tears, saying Alison is near death - that Sara has caused her life to be in danger! Her father was on, too, saying how much they had liked Sara "before."
Can't believe I'm repeating all this - but I just hate what they are trying to do to someone who seems so nice.
