Hope was a big dud on Dancing With the Stars last season.
A whiner, devoid of personality, lackluster...voted off cuz noone liked her, including her pro dancing partner, Maxim Chermkovsky, who reportedly slapped her during rehearsals. I guess she’s in to being roughed up. :-)
Battered syndrome sufferers will go to great lengths to cover for the perp. That’s why perps choose them. DUH. I remember reading that Josh Brolin gave Diane Lane a black eye a few years ago. Next day, she was seen smiling on camera and saying that it was “no big deal”.
She’s from my hometown — where I still live — but not following most sports I catch only the more sensational news items involving her like this one.
I forgot Maks slapped her, hmm..there seems to be a pattern here.
Regardless I don’t think men should ever hit women.
You're right and given the intensity of parents today who wish their girls to make it to the olympics, one has to wonder what her background was like.
Be that as it may, the fact that she chose to get married to this bearded thug (did you see his picture?) in a secret ceremony tells me that everyone close to her in her life has been warning her about this guy and in defiance to them, she has chosen to go thru with it without their participation.
Absolutely nothing good will come of this marriage and her potential career endorsements will likely suffer also..
Twenty years from now, if she's still alive, she'll write a book about her lifetime of abuse.........
