Flash TV — Very Revealing Reality
Forget Kate: Dancing with the Stars' wardrobe malfunctions the real hot story
Have you ever wondered how Dancing with the Stars’ females keep their clothes on?
Well, the most recent results show gave us our answer — they sometimes don’t.
Len Goodman chose Chelsie Hightower and Jake Pavelka’s Risky Business-themed dance as the encore and there were wardrobe issues all over the place.
First in an attempt at channelling Tom Cruise, Jake slid out in a white button down shirt sans-pants. Yes, it was intentional, but Tom Cruise he is not. Still, points for ... “creativity?”
Later on in the show the real malfunction took place as Chelsie’s breast came out of her “dress” at least three times. The outfit is backless and sideless hanging over her front (see pic). There’s really no wonder she experienced several Janet Jackson moments.
On the other hand, dancers like Edyta Sliwinska take skimpy costumes to a whole new level and still manage to stay in their costume. I’ve never understood the physics of it (lots and lots of tape?) so I was relieved to see Chelsie come out. Logically, it all finally made sense!
Chelsie was not the only one with an exposé — singer Debi Nova’s underwear made a few unscheduled appearances. Maybe I noticed because of the Chelsie incident, but in my world, if you dance in underwear, you make sure it stays on. If you’re dancing in a dress, you don’t flash your underwear — especially if you're the singer dancing as a side. At the end of the day, I think the fault lies with the camera angles, but still, anytime you pop (without the lock 'n drop) in a mini skirt with legs spread, you’re gonna give the audience a side show.
Physics 101.
In other news, Kate Gosselin finally went home! Honestly, after all my complaining, I felt a little sad for her. Yes, she’s still demanding as ever, but her life is crumbling apart — how can I not feel empathy for that?
Next week’s prediction: Chad Ochocinco goes home. Hitting on his partner Cheryl Burke is getting a little old and quite frankly, he’s turning a little creepy (Poor girl!). Telling your professional you know them very well because you spend more time together than a married couple is just bizarre, and Cheryl's body language tells us how uncomfortable he makes her. I don't blame her, but I get the impression that there's a lot more going on than we're seeing.
When will reality TV ever show us reality? The answer is never, but I'm going to keep hoping.
