I like this...
"OK, guys, ballroom dancing was the best experience of my life,'' said Rice, who wasn't wearing any of his three Super Bowl rings. "Can you imagine the kind of criticism I got -- the big macho football player putting on dance shoes? But I didn't care.''

Love it! I loved him as a 49'er and I am so glad he continues to be involved in the dance world!

I guess I should mention that Lisa Rina annd her husband were at the Emerald ball on Saturday night too. Seems to me like more of the second season people were--and contiue to be--genuinely interested in ballroom. Cool, isn't it?

Yeah, Louis was there... he had also been busy with the Music Video Producers Awards that same weekend, where I hear he did a show with Cheryl.

Just to be clear, while Louis did show up Saturday night, Lisa had already been there from much earlier in the evening.

Haha! I did the same thing to Ed McMahan. He was at our local airport the same time we were going to pick up my mom. I was standing right behind him when my hand brushed up against his butt. Well, my hand brushed on something anyways lol. Later on, my sister whispered to me, "that is Ed McMahan". He was much taller in person than what I had thought lol. The funny thing was that I had always said that a celebrity probably would be right in front of me and I wouldn't know it, and sure enough that was true!;)

Back on topic: I loved Jerry! I'm glad Drew won, but Jerry can shake his cute tushy anytime he wants to!:raisebro:

It looks like QVC is going to try selling it.
Tivo says "Dance with John O'Hurley" will be
showing on Monday 6/5 at 10 AM. Or at least
I'm assuming its their DVD.
