I don't get it.

The singing I get. The 400 brides I don't :)

Yahh, they take a formal model with legs up to her neck, has had professional dance and ballet training, and put her into a celebrity dance competition with a bunch of people who no former training at all.

She didn't have "professional" training but took classes as a youngster and then pursued a career as a wrestler. Modeling has no bearing on whether she could or could not dance. As for Rice, if his fans truly watched his limited footwork there's no way he would have come as far as he did.

Nobody here has come up with the answer to what are those blue stars about on costumes? At least I didn't hear it.

Leave it to him and NBC to turn a story about a winner of the CMOH from WW2 into "Roots".

I mean, the third question into the interview, its "So when was the first time you experienced racism in the military".

What a joke.

The singing I get. The 400 brides I don't :) Ditto. Frankly during the entire closing ceremony I felt I was watching a foreign film without subtitles. Boring.

The card people were walking around during the fire works. I wish someone would have explained what they were all about.
