the situation

TMZ is reporting that Dancing with the Stars has a mandate to fill next season: NO MORE D-LISTERS! They’re shooting straight for the top, and want only A-Listers. To sweeten the deal, ABC is going to offer the new contestants final say on music and costume, and no more mandatory rehearsals.

So basically if they get their targeted A-listers, the poor celebs are going to fail miserably on national TV because they’re too busy to rehearse. I’m all for better stars, but I’m in shock that they think The Situation, Bristol Palin, and Audrina are D-Listers. As Stephanie Tanner would say, “How rude!”

About

Although comedy is her profession, Nadine has accomplished a lot in her young age. She is a national champion black belt, a world-class soccer player, and an avid snowboarder. She started playing soccer at the age of 4, and continued playing through college where she majored in Biology, but quickly realized her destiny was to tell jokes, not to wear a lab coat. So she decided to be funny while finishing her Bachelors Degree in biology and continued on to get her M.B.A. Nadine’s comedy style is much like her athleticism, fearless. She’s made her way up the comedy ladder very quickly, and has become a club favorite at many of the country’s top comedy clubs, including the Improv chain. Performing in the Boston Comedy Festival and being noted as the “one of the youngest and brightest up and comers” and traveling to the Middle East to entertain the troops are just a few of her notable accomplishments. These days Nadine splits time between the stage, a radio studio, her computer blogging, and a television studio. Nadine’s TV, Radio, Writing credits include: national commercials, talking head roles on E! Entertainment, Showtime’s Hot Tamales Live, The Skinny: Fat Free News, The Sunny Side of The Truth: Real World Hollywood, TVgasm, Zazreport, Daddy’s Girls, Jerseylicious, celebrity interviews on Mania TV, a weekly half-hour television show that syndicates to colleges across the country for National Lampoon and a nightly radio show on XM Satellite Radio.

    Oh yeah! I’m sure the ONLY reason Brad & Angie, George and Julia have all passed on this clusterf*ck of a show was because they wanted control over their costumes! And no rehearsals required? Even better! Now they can show up once a week, fart around the dance floor for 2 minutes and still collect their big fat check, and be sexually harassed by Bruno in the process!

    Somehow though, I expect next season will feature yet another Khardashian, OctoMom, some Disney teenager nobody over the age of 15 has ever heard of, and maybe one of Michelle Bachmann’s 23 foster children…Keep it Classy DWTS!!

    When i think of A Listers i think of Harrison Ford, Tom Cruise, Steven Speilberg and people like that. The day i see someone like Leonardo DiCaprio on DWTS i would DIE!

    I’m sure the producers say A-List meaning reality stars we’ve sort of heard of recently instead of someone we haven’t thought of in 15-years.

    I agree Lily.

    I don’t mind seeing the athletes, the teen heart throb from the 80′s or 90′s and relevant reality stars, i.e the situation. But the random Disney child or 5 years removed reality tv star provides no hype for me. Also if you were not the star of your reality tv show (this goes for you Audrina) I don’t want to see you either.

    I don’t want to see anyone from ANY reality show. Except for Cat Deeley. But SYTYCD is more of a dance show than reality show.
