    Bindi Irwin officially launches bid to be the next Rumer Willis in first DWTS promo photo

    By Jeremy Helligar
    30 minutes ago





    For someone who had never worn heels before her first Dancing with the Stars rehearsal, Bindi Irwin appears to be a fast learner.

    The 17-year-old strapped on a pair for her first official promo photo from the upcoming US season of DWTS, and she and partner Derek Hough, 30, are already looking like winners. She even gets him to defy gravity.

    Bindi shared the photo on Instagram with the caption: "This journey....I don't know if I've ever laughed so much in my entire life as I have in the studio with@derekhough #DWTS


    Comments from her 495K Instagram followers were overwhelmingly positive, but Bindi's Aussie fans aren't the ones who'll determine her DWTS fate.

    She already seems to be emerging as a sentimental favourite and could become this season's Rumer Willis.

    Will Bindi take the grand prize like Bruce and Demi's little girl? The battle begins when DWTS US premieres September 14.

    Bindi's chemistry with Derek bodes well. Check out their easy rapport as she tries to teach him to talk like an Aussie.

    Gary Busey Goes All Out to Announce He Is Joining ‘Dancing With the Stars’


    Apologies to the rest of the latest “Dancing With the Stars” cast, but I think you can all cha-cha-cha back home. Gary Busey has already won the new season before it’s even premiered.

    If you really think about it, would we have expected anything less from the Academy Award-nominated-actor-turned-reality-TV star?

    On Tuesday’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” Busey’s notoriety for bizarre antics reached new heights as Jimmy Kimmel announced the actor will join the 21st season of ABC‘s hit dance-competition show. Busey then entered the studio riding atop a horse, decked out in full rhinestone-cowboy regalia.

    When asked what made him decide to do “DWTS” this season, Busey responded in true Busey style: “I didn’t have anything else to do.”

    The new season of “Dancing With the Stars” premieres at 8 p.m. ET on Monday, Sept. 14 on ABC.

    Dancing With the Stars Week 10 Recap: Which Couple Has Your Vote Heading Into Next Week's Finale?

    By Mitch Rustad / November 16 2015, 7:49 PM PST


    With the Mirrorball trophy so tantalizingly close, the tension during tonight’s two-hour Dancing With the Stars semifinals should have been tighter than Carlos PenaVega’s abs.

    But without the prospect of another shocking, tear-stained exit – alas, Tamar Braxton’s withdrawal from the competition earlier this week (due to blood clots in her lungs) means all four remaining couples move safely into next week’s finale – we had to settle for a little DWTS history instead.
    For the first time ever, our fearless couples tackled three dances on semifinals night: Couples’ dances; trio dances; and a dance-off challenge (for three extra bonus points). So let’s high-kick right to the highlights, rank tonight’s top dances and discuss your favorites for the Mirrorball trophy, shall we?

    10. Nick Carter and pro Sharna Burgess (Tango): Looking a little shellshocked throughout, Nick fumbled through this performance — but didn’t you love, love, love Sharna’s subtle “I got you” mid-dance pep talk? Judges’ Score: 24/30

    9. Alek Skarlatos and pro Lindsay Arnold vs. Carlos PenaVega and pro Witney Carson (Cha Cha): Bruno Tonioli called it a “chest off” competition and wanted more “wiggly bum” from both couples, while Julianne Hough, after noting Alek was still nicely waxed, said his musicality and technique were both a little off. Carrie Ann Inaba gave both her “well done” stamp of approval. Judges’ 3 Bonus Points Go To: Carlos and Witney.


    8. Nick Carter and pro Sharna Burgess vs. Bindi Irwin and pro Derek Hough (Samba): Bindi was totally hip-tacular and totally stole the show here, but Nick came back strong from his opening stumble. Judges’ 3 Bonus Points Go To: Bindi and Derek

    7. Bindi Irwin and pro Derek Hough (Salsa): It’s raining happiness! Julianne wanted a little more “down n’ dirty” salsa and Carrie Ann asked for a little more “edge,” but no matter, Bindi’s joyful performance made the ballroom downright giddy. Judges’ Score: 27/30

    6. Alek Skarlatos and pros Lindsay Arnold/Emma Slater (Argentine Tango): Despite a powerful, dynamic start, this performance “lost a little stream” towards the end, according to Carrie Ann. Bruno called it “very, very effective,” but Julianne labeled it “melodramatic” then asked for even more drama! Alrighty, then! Judges’ Score: 27/30

    5. Carlos PenaVega and pro Witney Carson (Contemporary): Seriously working a swingin’ rope in all his shirtless glory, Carlos went for something different – to mixed results. “I didn’t quite get it,” said Carrie Ann, to deafening “boos” from the ballroom, which kept coming during Julianne’s lukewarm comments. “As weeks are going by… you guys are losing your connection a little bit.” Harsh! But Bruno loved the innovative performance, calling it “bloody good” and “like watching Tarzan doing Cirque du Soleil.” Judges’ Score: 28/30

    4. Carlos PenaVega and pros Witney Carson/Karina Smirnoff (Charleston): “I couldn’t take my eyes off of you,” said Carrie Ann of Carlos and this spectacular performance (though she held out for a “9”), while Julianne threw some good-humored shade at the ladies. “I thought you were the professional out there,” she winked at Carlos. Judges’ Score: 29/30

    3. Alek Skarlatos and pro Lindsay Arnold (Waltz): “You captured this sweeping majesty and smoothness of a gliding eagle,” gushed Bruno, while Carrie Ann called this performance his “best ever” and Julianne called it “true dancing.” You could also call it perfect. Judges’ Score: 30/30

    2. Nick Carter and pros Sharna Burgess/Peta Murgatroyd (Salsa): “All the Nick we have seen from day one was in that dance,” gushed Julianne, while Carrie Ann said simply, “the Backstreet Boy is back.” Mirrorball trophy alert, anyone? Judges’ Score: 30/30

    1. Bindi Irwin and pros Derek Hough/Mark Ballas (Jazz): Bruno called this dance a “work of genius” while Carrie Ann was reduced to borderline cray, multiple repeats of “Whoa!” before she began to make some sense. “That was like a professional contemporary dance company!” she roared. Judges’ Score: 30/30

    ugh, I was bored so when I went to see elimination I thought add a bit to see something, I stopped at 'The Charleston'. How can any of those judges cast a legit professional opinion when they themselves are clueless.

    Seems they ended up doing Charlie Chaplin's comedy dance instead of the real thing. How professional.

    Going Off the Grid!
