I don't think I've ever seen the judges give more honest assessments than tonight. No surprise that they let Cloris off the hook however.
I liked Toni Braxton's wardrobe.

are you serious? This is a favorite show of mine, and I appreciate the handicap some people have brought to the show, but you should be able to complete a DANCE! Great, she's 82, sure she's spunky, whatever, but she cant do the dances, and the charade should be over so we can get on to the business of the show. So these others who put hours and hours in are going home so the joke can continue. I guess I didnt realize how pissed I am about it. Its taken a good show with a lot of talented people and brought it down to a level thats embarrassing.

FWIW, Cloris isn't there to provide us with quality dancing. This is just a way to give an old lady some needed attention and let her tell some dirty jokes in the process. As long as she's gone in a week or two, there's no harm.
And besides, at least Cloris tried last night. She wasn't good, but there was effort on her part. Kim K. is as lively as a bag of rocks. I would have no problem with her being shown the door before Cloris. At least Cloris brings some entertainment value to the show. Kim K. brings a lazy ass and nothing else.

Only got through the first hour before heading off to work this morning.
Although Lance and Lacey are trying to freshen it up, they are killing themselves by hip-hop through all their dance genres.
"Gear in the Rear" has no inner fire, just a pretty girl. Poor Bruno, he really wants to see Kim's booty do some serious shaking on the dance floor, and she continues to disappoint.
Toni might as well be dancing in a bikini, but she did dance fine.
Brooke continues to do well and bring good energy and technique to their dances.
Misty's game face has to be dropped down a few notches, she does dance with that weird focus stare that undermines the rest of her hard work.
Rocco just didn't seem to have a lot to do in the rumba, but at least Karina seems to have a more appealing air about her this season.
Looking forward to the Cloris trainwreck to come in the second hour...

I think Lacey is trying too hard to be different. Maybe it's the new kid syndrome. If only she kept more of the basics of the dance, she'd score better. I'd prefer it too. It's way too freestyle.
Kim K really doesn't belong on this show. She says she trying but she doesn't show it. The kid was born with a silver spoon in her mouth and she coasts on her physical looks. A reality TV star....so what.
I love Toni. Very sexy rumba and she still looks great at 40+. Maybe we'll be treated to her singing. She should make it to the finals.
Rocco was stiff. Maurice was less stiff. Both weren't very good.
Warren is great. I love how this guy is trying. I think he's more entertaining and talented than Emmett.
Cody is pretty fun. He may get to the finals with Julianne's help.
Susan and Brooke were OK. I do think Susan needs to channel more Erica Kane in her dances though.
Cloris was in an entirely different mood last night. She did take it seriously. I think the judges scored her fairly and there are people who should go first (like KK) not because they can't dance better but because they are joyless.

Kim has been a disapointment. First she covers her butt in every dance routine and she dances like some church girl virgin instead of Salome who danced to have John the Baptist's head chopped off.

I'm so glad to see Kim Kardashian gone. Lookswise she's WAY overrated and performancewise... I'm suprised she lasted this long.

Castroneves indicted on tax evasion
2 hours, 22 minutes ago
Buzz Up PrintMIAMI (TICKER) —Helio Castroneves, a two-time winner of the Indianapolis 500, was indicted Thursday on tax-evasion charges.
The famed Brazilian driver was indicted along with a relative and an Ohio attorney, authorities said. Castroneves, who owns a mansion in Coral Gables, is charged with failing to pay more than $5 million in taxes over a four-year period.
Castroneves’ sister, Kali, and his lawyer, Alan Miller are accused of assisting him in the alleged tax-evasion scheme. The three defendants are expected to surrender to authorities and appear in court Friday morning.
The 33-year-old Team Penske driver won the Indianapolis 500 in 2001 and 2002, becoming the fifth man to achieve the feat in consecutive years. He finished second to teammate and countryman Gil de Ferran in 2003.
Castroneves gained American fame last year after winning the fifth season of ABC’s reality television show “Dancing with the Stars” with partner Julianne Hough.
