White powder sent to 'Dancing with the Stars' studio
L.A. Now ^ | 09/28/2011 | Editorial

Authorities responded Wednesday to the CBS Television Studios in the Fairfax district after a white powdery substance was found in a letter addressed to "Dancing with the Stars," one of the shows filmed there. The call came out about 3:30 p.m. at the CBS studios in the 7800 block of Beverly Boulevard. The substance was determined be harmless after being examined by the Los Angeles Police Department's hazardous materials personnel. It is the second time in as many months that a letter containing an unknown powder was sent to the studios. Earlier, a similar substance was found in a threatening letter sent to late-night host Craig Ferguson. The substance turned out not to be a threat. Ferguson made light of the incident on Twitter. "Finally some office drama that isn't about Craig's hair! FYI: The hair is hot. Anthrax scare, not so much," he said.

I only watch the show because my wife loves it. Having said that, JR Martinez NAILED it on Monday night. He was every bit as good as his professional partner. I don't particularly care for dancing, but that guy is mesmerizing. And a true American hero.

Actually agree that Chaz seems like a nice person. I won't read his/her book, or listen to his political views which I'm sure are full of leftist whining. I worry about his/her health though. Not good to be pushing yourself with that much excess weight. He sweats like a pig and seems to be gasping for breath after he dances.

“Why would anyone have anything against Chaz??”

I wouldn’t put anything against Chaz.
