Dancing with the Stars had their first elimination last night, and it wasn’t a shocking one. Metta World Peace formerly known as Ron Artest of the L.A. Lakers was voted off, and went down swinging. He shouted (after his elimination) “All I want to know is who’s coming with me?” – The sign of a true athlete!

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.

    Yeah, I wasn’t surprised at all. Between the creepy bleached hair (including facial hair), the crap choreography, and stilted movement, plus the unknown (i.e., no established fanbase) and kind of skanky looking partner, he really had no chance. And the guy calls himself Metta World Peace? What’s that all about? (Obviously, I’m not a sports fan). But does Peta remind anyone else of a twiggier version of Lacey? I kept mixing them up when during distance shots.

    Can’t say that I’m sorry to see him go…he sucked and looked like Shazaam on crack.
    He also skeeved me out when he wiped the sweat from his brow and then put the SAME HAND on Brooke Burke’s shoulder. I hate when people do that.

    His partner was adorable though and such a good dancer, so I feel bad for her.
    @Lizbot, I agree that she looks like Lacey.

    There are obviously “stars” chosen as cannon fodder to keep the “headliners” on the show. Artest was one of ‘em. You can pretty much bet the next ones to go will be Nancy Grace, The scrawny stiff model whose name I haven’t bothered to learn, and Carson Kressley. After that it will be David Arquette.

    What kind of mental breakdown did Artest have, and why hasn’t his handler/manager gotten him some psychological help? No sane person legally changes their name to “Metta World Peace.”

    Oh…I missed Rob Kardashian on my cannon fodder list. I, like so many viewers and his own parents, simply forgot about him.

    I hope and think Carson and David will be there for a while. We have opened a Forum Thread for the show and are discussing it if anyone wants to join in and pull this puppy apart in serious depth.

    I knew it was either Artest or the Italian chick who was going to go. Artest was skeezy during his interview…thought he wanted to get his freak on with his partner and Brooke at the same time on live TV. Nancy Grace has to go next. No conservative bitches!

    Iona…is that some of that famous Liberal Tolerance we hear so much about?

    Hate Nancy Grace as an individual (she’s earned it)…not as some representative of a generalization.

    Peta skanky? No way. I thought she was gorgeous. She doesn’t look at all like Lacey. Lacey, unfortunately, has turned herself into a dime-a-dozen Hollywood plastic blonde – frozen face (srly, her forehead doesn’t move), tacky blonde extensions, and breast implants.
