This week I'd like to talk about my most favorite competitors on Dancing With The Stars. The winners of season 18, Meryl and Maks, were my all time favorite. Meryl Davis is a Olympic gold medal winner for ice skating. The way she moved on the dance floor was just like how she performed on the ice. She was perfection. Every week she did her best thanks to her partner Maks for encouraging her. Every single performance she did left me speechless. Even on her worst days she still did much better than the other competitors. I was team Meryl since day one. The first time I watched her dance, I knew that she was going to win. She definitely deserved the mirror ball trophy. After Dancing With The Stars, Meryl continued dance. After tons of practice, she joined the DWTS tour. She stood out when she was on stage. I love Meryl so much, and she will continue to be my favorite.

 

 

A couple days ago, I discussed Dancing With The Stars with my creative writing teacher, Mr. Aeen. We're both huge fans of the show. Every season we create bets to see who will win. I always look forward to attending his class because we always have something new to share about the show. Recently we discussed how the contestants on the show are getting paid lots of money. We thought that the stars joined the show to lose weight, or to prove to themselves that they can do whatever they dream of. Mr. Aeen and I were shocked to find out that for every week that the competitor preforms, they earn thousands of dollars. The more times they dance, the more money they make. Last season's winner, Bindi Irwin made half a million dollars being on the show. This surprised both me and my teacher. Now we know why people were so compassionate about joining the show!

 

 

I'm so excited for 22nd season of Dancing With the Stars. The show premieres March 21st with tons of great performers and new contestants. The cast has not yet been announced, but a few cast rumors have been revealed. Season 21 winner, Bindi Irwin announced that her younger brother Robert might join the show. Robert is only 11 years old. That is the youngest ever on the show. Who knows? Maybe Robert will take home the mirror ball trophy like his big sister. Robert said that he has truly inspired by watching Bindi perform every week on the show. He arrived to every taping of the show, and thinks that it would be a lot of fun, yet hard. I would love seeing Robert on the show. He has such a good personality, and always seems happy and cheerful. I wonder who his pro partner would be? Whoever it is, hopefully they try hard to get Robert to the top! Hopefully these rumors turn to reality.
