DANCIN' IN DISNEY WORLD
This week, Lacey [Schwimmer] and I rehearsed for part of the week
in Orlando, so Joey [Fatone] and I could attend a masquerade ball
for [former bandmate] Chris Kirkpatrick's charity. Its nice to be
away from L.A. and have the energy of Orlando around us. We did get
to go to Disney World and let loose a bit, too. While we were
there, we got plush Tigger and Pluto dolls we're going to put at
the end of the stage tonight as good luck charms.
WEIGHT WATCHERS
I think its just crazy to ever talk about a womans weight [
like Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Louis van Amstel
did]. It's so absurd that anyone would ever make comments about
Cheryl or Lacey's weights being unhealthy. Lacey showed me some of
the [comments] on her BlackBerry, and some people can say such
stupid things sometimes.
JUDGING THE JUDGES
Lacey and I were both pretty down after we danced our West Coast
Swing routine
last week. It was really unfair of them to
attack her. This competition is all about the celebrities and youre
supposed to have fun. No celebrity is a professional [dancer] and
theyre not supposed to be! This week, the judges comments had
nothing to do with me. They didnt give me any comments about
my footwork or my frame or anything like that - they just attacked
my pro, and gave me nothing to use going into this week's jive.
JIVE TALKIN'
The jive choreography is the craziest and fastest choreography I've
done to date. Lacey's choreography is something that [guest judge]
Michael Flatley is really going to appreciate, because he knows
about footwork. We're dancing to Little Richard's "Tutti Frutti,"
and our costumes are going to be very '50s, very bright and very
fun. There will be a lot of pink in there.
EVERYBODY DANCE!
We rehearsed this week's hip-hop group number all together last
Wednesday and had another run-through yesterday. It was really hard
to get everyone together in one room and get their attention
focused on one person, but itll make
great TV! The routine
was much more like the choreography we did in *NSYNC, so I was in
my element, but I have no clue how Cloris [Leachman] is going to
get through it. She slept through the first half of our first
rehearsal anyway. I think its going to
just be a schtick for her. Were probably going
to just be dancing around her!
