This is another show that I just LOVE (along with Idol, So You Think..Dance and a few others)
I enjoyed watching Ali, Ratzenberger, Fatone. Cyrus was pretty bad but he did try. I think that trying to neaten his appearance would help him look the part and that would make him better. While I don't like Heather Mills and feel annoyed that she is considered a "star" - I do think she did really well and I was amazed that the leg was not even very noticeable in her dancing. (yes I was SOOOO curious about it)
It is such a fun show to watch. Ballroom dancing is so beautiful. I am looking forward to see how much everyone improves during the season.
I was reading on the ABC site about the show. There is a section that explains about the different dances, where they started and what moves to watch for. Read this:![]()
Tango Fast Facts:
The gauchos (cowboys) of Argentina wore chaps that hardened from the foam and sweat of the horse's body, causing them to walk with flexed knees. Of a night they would go to crowded night clubs and ask ladies of the night to dance but since the gaucho hadn't showered, the lady would dance in the crook of the man's right arm, holding her head back. Her right hand was held low on his left hip, close to his pocket, looking for a payment for dancing with him.
I know that every time I watch the tango from now on, I will have to giggle at the way the woman holds her head and imagining the stinky cowboy!!![]()
