Nothing else.
“A better dancer leaves tonight.”
That may well be, but a diva who acted like winning this competition was owed to her left tonight. People pick up on that kind of attitude, and they don’t like it one bit. That’s why I believe Brandy didn’t get enough votes to stay on the show.

My prediction - Bristol Palin has this contest all sewn up at this point. Hollywood & the MSM have turned this into a political battle. The dancing part is irrelevant now. The lib vote will be split between Jennifer Grey and Kyle, and Bristol will get the conservative vote, which is bigger anyway. She wins hands down.
Not sure what your point is, but if it's that Brandy and Jennifer are not "amateurs", that's true to extent they are professional entertainers. Brandy said she did not consider herself a dancer, but a singer. Anyway, all the more reason why it should be a surprise Bristol has lasted this long. Sounds like the only thing keeping her there is block of voters who probably are more interested in sticking it to the liberals than even Bristol herself.
How do we know that was actually Willow and Bristol Palin making the slurs? I wouldn’t put it past a lib to sign up with their names as usernames. It’s not like there haven’t been sock puppets on the “interwebs” before...

I haven't watched the show tonight, so didn't see her reaction, but I'd be surprised if she claims racism. She doesn't seem the type. I think Brandy is a sweet girl and was pulling for her over Jennifer the drama queen. I also give her a lot of slack because of the interview she did a couple of weeks ago where she was asked who on the show she's bonded with the most. Her answer was Bristol Palin and had only good things to say about her.
I also think Brandy has an amazing back story and has overcome a lot.
As a side note, I had never even heard of Brandy until I watched this show, so this is my only exposure to her.
now I will go and take a shower to clean my soul from going to that website!!!!
PS GO BRISTOL and MARK....
i used to follow her back in the 90s... mainly her music... she also had a couple of sitcoms... she's always come across as a nice, sweet gal... does not seem diva-like to me...
Libs tell people to just shut up. If you like her dancing, fine. You didn't say that. You just said I should shut up. So I have to assume that liking her dancing wasn't on your mind.
If Bristol gets the votes, then she deserves to win as much as anyone else.
My quibble isn't with Bristol. It's with people who think they are on some kind of mission against the evil "libs" because they vote for a politician's daughter on a dance competition TV show.
So, once again, I say...........shut up!
Class act. I shouldn't have any problem with that. Should I?
No one cares how much conservatives get hurt by anything, do they? He** to the NO! There aren’t any merits to your viewpoint. If she gets the votes, then she wins! Simple as that. We’re tired of playing nicey nice just to be PC.
Even though debating this TV show isn't that important it reveals a lot. Now it sounds, in fact, like your vote wasn't because you like her dancing, but rather for some kind of revenge thing. And you virtually admit you are trying to hurt someone so you must be saying that you don't believe in fairness or an even playing field or care about dancing at all. Instead you must think two wrongs make a right. I guess you think you've hurt libs but I'm not sure how you use a TV show as a substitute for liberalism. And now I also understand that you think choosing by merit is PC. What would choosing by race or ethnicity or political viewpoint be then?
Being a disruptor? Oh, you mean like Lisa, ugly, chicken-necked, Murkowski in Alaska? Golly gee, we should all bend to your point of view.
This makes absolutely no sense to me in the context of your argument. But it's interesting that you mention Murkowski. Good example of someone playing by the rules who is POS. Thanks for the example. I wish I thought of it first. Maybe you can see now why I'm bothered when I see our side playing by the rules but acting like brats.
Which is my point...the left began pitching their fits on TV, and in print a few weeks ago, because they hate Palin, a political conservative.
And gave the show even more publicity, by trashing a kid in a silly TV game show in which the winner get a plastic disco ball, for goodness sake.
They can’t help themselves, they provoke and bully....then cry when they are responded to.
Max has never won DWTS. Bristol’s partner has won at least twice. If we are just talking wins, Bristol got the better dancer. Not sure what you are trying to say.
Thank you! I thought my people instincts were somehow out of kilter based on some of the comments about her on this thread.
Kanye West: “Hell no, Brandy is the best dancer of all time, of all time”.
Bristol has done an amazing job, being a complete amateur to dancing and performing in general.
I’m worried about the Willow article...
Geesh! Some of you are pathetic.
What on God's green earth does this TV show have to do with fighting libs? Do you know the politics of all the competitors, the band, the judges? Do you even know if Bristol shares her mother's politics?
I'm not arguing about cheating. I'm arguing about playing by the rules but with unfair motives. However, if you believe in voting the bosse's daughter for prom queen just because she's the bosses daughter then you won't understand.
If were were FReeping on a Newsweek poll or voting if Katie Couric should keep her job I'd be with you. But this is a talent show.
I gave up on this show the first season, and only started watching it again when I heard Bristol was going to be on. To me, Max and Derek are the better male dancers, and they got paired with women who have danced before.
What I was saying was, of all the dancers on this season, Bristol has made the most progress. She had a long way to go relative to the rest of the “amateurs”.
Gotta Believe the justice brothers will get involved....heck Barry may even do something! LOL
I totally agree with you about Bristol improving. She has been doing outstanding week after week with regards to improvement.
Jennifer is an experienced dancer and yes she was the best drama queen on the entire show. Brandy should have been chosen over her IMHO. Bristol and Kyle have both in the spirit of the premise of this show... come a long long way from novice to dancer. They both deserve the votes and confidence of the viewers.
This is not a FOX show, it’s ABC.
