Lance Bass is keeping an exclusive diary only on Usmagazine.com about his experience competing on Dancing With the Stars. Check back each Monday to keep up with Bass' progress, and get behind-the-scenes dish on ABC's hit series.

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!
