“Ode to Joy” is the final movement in Beethoven’s 9th Symphony.  It’s the music for my favorite hymn, “Joyful, Joyful We Adore Thee”.

 

The Quickstep might hurt Anna and Brooks, though I hope that Brooks does well at least.

Ah thank you for that info. Yeah, I am sure I heard/know it when I hear it but I just can't think of out off the top of my head. :haha:

Stephen and the theme from Superman is the perfect match

I kinda wish that was saved for him later in the season but then this theme does call for it. :haha:

Yeah I am a bit sick over it. Especially knowing he's probably gonna make the finals.

 

I feel for his victims so much :(

Ugh no I had no idea about this stuff regarding Dwight. :( I enjoyed his dance and his overall energy on the show, so that's really disappointing. :broken:

Hopefully not! Dwight Howard is GARBAGE.

Just in case you thought I disliked him for his recent mockery of Angel Reese (adding to the already flaming pile of horrible racist attacks she faces for beating a certain now-WNBA player in the 2023 NCAA championship!), I haven't been able to do this because i've either been sans computer or just busy but never forget!!!! It's not even factoring anything else that hasn't been verified against him. (IYKYK).

(Tbh, it's been obvious to like Basketball people that Dwight Howard ain't shit. He just has less visibility than NFL players to white American).

 

 

Wow I can’t believe @*Diana and @*Wallace don’t read my posts

As I often love to do, I'll do a Youtube views post of this week's dances! I'm not sure if I will be able to do this two times a week like I have done in the past (like mid-week and at the end of the week). Maybe some weeks I can. We'll see, but I'll certainly do hope to post a views post once a week.


Here is a mid-week Youtube stats update of this week's dances!

I was also surprised by Chandler's low Youtube views stats. Her likes are at a respectable level. But with being a younger celeb and a strong dance, I thought she would have had more views there.

 

Though the Instagram and maybe Tiktok (if DWTS posts dances there?) views and stats could be different, maybe?

Anna in the Top 3.  :haha::wub:

That one didn't surprise me too much. The controversial / most talked about star tends to have lots of views. I remember Carole Baskin leading in the Youtube views on Week 1. :haha:

The show doomed Chandler when they paired her with Brandon. He's probably the least popular pro. I'm sure with the DWTS audience there's an element of racism too it as well. But he also just kind of sucks. (I think it's also one of the reasons they finally brought in Marcquet to troop. So they have another black pro in the wings, especially one so connected with Witney/Lindsay, so they can kick Brandon without looking like they are racist for firing/demoting their only black male pro).

I wonder why Brandon isn’t popular beyond racism.  Is his choreography bad?

yup... Chandler should have been put with a more popular male pro since she herself lacks a strong fanbase in the first place (at least compared to other recent Gen Z/Disney contestants) 😵‍💫 

 

i know it's literally only Week 2, but i'm going to mentally prepare myself for her to go home in a Tinashe/Heather Morris level early elimination. it's been a while since we've had an early/mid competition shock elimination in the post-judges save world. i also just feel like she's going to fade into the background amongst a cast of big/memorable personalities. 

 

although i have a feeling this might be intentional sabotage since the past 2 winners have been Gen Z girls... which i kinda get tbh. i don't think the audience will be voting for a third to win in a row regardless of how good she is sadly :(

Racism + mediocre choreography.
 

And it’s not like the show hasn’t given him partners to showcase good choreography. He’s had his chance with Tinashe, Jordon Sparka, and Lele. All of whom came in with at least experience in learning choreography. And now Chandler. And he’s never been able to elevate his choreography.

The only time I’ve ever seen Brandon in a tik tok that went viral is when it’s something with Rylee. He just doesn’t have that fanbase on his own. Chandler would have thrived with Val or Alan, but alas…hopefully she at least makes finals but I won’t be shocked if she’s 5th or 6th. The fact that she could be the highest score of the night and #9 in views is crazy

Who do you think will get the highest score of the night I think it might be Chandler again but you never know I think maybe Joey Stephen and Jenn  as well but not too sure . I personally think Brandon is a really nice guy and stuff I was at Dwts live earlier this year like in February and I met him he was really nice . I honestly hope that he does step his choreo  though I personally think it’s actually good! But sometimes not memorable I really hope He and Chandler can make it far and I know this isn’t popular but I hope they win because I think Brandon deserves it you don’t have to agree with me though.

Because his choreography sucks.


Thanks.  Brandon should really improve his choreography.  Gleb probably should do so as well, but at least he has sexy choreography.
