Why wasn’t Chastity Bono, the daughter of Sonny and Cher, invited to be on DWTS?

I thought so.....

I can’t believe anyone would want to dance with it. They must have to pay a lot of money to get someone to do that.

something went terribly wrong. She needed help that wasn’t given to her.

Cher spent her entire life craving attention, and later on, getting plastic surgery. What time did she devote to this little girl? It's a sad story.

It is tragic that she and so many other young persons are seduced by this “transgendering” myth.

What if these people live to regret the surgeries...

Chaz is like the bearded lady, and DWTS is the reincarnation of those old-time traveling freak-shows.

Perahps they should have some midgets dance for us as well.

I’m not going to watch this season. And I’ve been a fan since it first premiered as a summer replacement show. Oh well - I refuse to tune in to what’s turned into a freak show for ratings.

Well, at least they’re together in their many surgeries.

Yuck.

"Every season we look for new stories and get as much range as possible and an interesting balance of people,”

This is the Hollywood ever deepening hole. They have to keep going farther and farther into depravity, in order to outdo the last sensationalist and boundary stretching freak show. I wonder when it will finally get to having sex with animals on stage at the MTV Awards? Or Dancing With Serial Killers?

“She was such an adorable little girl...”

But she never ever looked like a happy child though. Ever. Like in that photo.

I have watched it occasionally..tuned in last year to see Bristol. Did you notice that Chaz is paired with Lacy Schwimmer..who has a large, muscled body for a female..and a very athletic style?...Coincidence? Nah

SHE didn’t change HER gender, she just mutilated her body.. What absolute nonsense.. you cannot change your gender.. you can butcher and mutilate your body and you can take hormone therapy but you are and always will be the gender you were born.

Yes, yes I do know there are some folks who sex organs do not match their chromosomes, IE they appear female but are XY or appear male and are XX, but this is not the case with this person.

This is just a mentally ill person, who found doctors willing to pander to her psychosis rather than truly help her, and is now a butchered freak.

This was Chastity’s answer for her lost fight against obesity...and knowing she could never trump her mothers notoriety. Very sad indeed.

Wondering where they got a ‘willie’.

SHE had the top half done but not the lower half. This was from May and SHE’s not been away from the camera long enough to get the full monty.

I think it was more personality rather than size. Derrick Hugh is partnered with Ricki Lake. He’s always been good with the “cougar” set. I’ve noticed that Cheryl and Anna Trebunskya seem to usually get teamed up with the athletes. So does Maks. Tony usually gets the reality TV personality (wendy williams, Kate Gosselin, Audrina Patridge, that one girl from “The bachelor” Melissa something)
But they seem to have changed it up some this year. I like that they teamed Karina up with J.R. Martinez. He’s an Iraqui war vet who suffered burns over 40% of his body after his Humvee hit a road side bomb. He’s a sentimental fave to win. I hope either Karina or Maks wins. They’ve been on this show alot.

Maybe TV ought to just make a “Torture The Freak Show”, and that way all the freaks who want to get tortured can sign up for it, and all the people who want to watch the freak get tortured can tune into it. And the rest of us can watch good shows. Maybe Al Gore can do it on his TV network whatever it is.

Since I don’t watch DWTS all I can say is my wife, a regular view, has said “Thats it, no more. I’ll watch something else.”
