I guess it's not just white people who can't dance


So much worse than a guilty pleasure...just horrifying. Last Wednesday night I watched a few tidbits from Dancing with the Stars with an an-named party (to protect his innocence). It was so utterly painful...kind of like pairs figure skating but WAY gayer...oh boy. However some select moments were funny like watching Rachel Hunter break down and cry during practice because she can't focus enough to pay attention to her instructor (apparently modeling is sometimes for idiots), watching the soap star chick fall over every time she spun around because her popped ear drums left her with no equilibrium (oh the drama) and last but not least...watching Evander Holyfield butcher simple practice dance steps. There is a saying that white people can't dance and the even greater assumption that black people have soul, thus enabling them to groove like hypnotizing masters - well, Mr Holyfield proved THAT wrong. I could sense black people all around the world cringing as they watched him maneuver through a dance routine resembling someone having an epileptic siezure.

I can't believe you watched the ENTIRE second episode....I could barely watch the first episode outside of watching Evander have an epilleptic seziure
