I don’t watch the show but I want that Carrie Ann Inaba to be my TSA screener.
Carrie Ann is tough!!
Schwimmer wasn't the only parent who had issues with Monday night's show. Shirley Ballas, Mark's mother and herself a gifted professional dance teacher, came down on Maks' side. "I must say, I didn't agree with some of the judging today," she said. "I think Carrie Ann was a bit off. There were some biased feelings there against Maks, and also with Bristol [Palin, Mark's partner]. This was probably Bristol's best week when it came to technique. She didn't put a foot wrong. She did extremely well. But she can't please that woman. I don't know what it is that Carrie Ann wants to see from her. The girl is improving week by week, and one positive remark could be quite nice."
Ballas is a proud mom, but not too proud to point out when her son makes a misstep. "I think it was Mark who went wrong in the samba, not Bristol. She seemed to know where she was going. He made the mistake. And I think when you're looking from the outside as an experienced professional, you should be able to see that the error came from him and not from Bristol."
