Lance & Lacey Dance to a different beat! - Dancing With the Stars
Lance Bass and Lacey Schwimmer are a breath of fresh air in this season’s Dancing With the Stars. They are both on their game and the viewers love their routines. Yet, it is their dance routines that are effecting Lance and Lacey’s scores from the judges; one in particular.
Last night’s Dancing With the Stars had some very bright moments and a few dull ones too . Ultimately, Brooke Burke and Derek Hough tied with Warren Sapp and his partner Kym Johnson at 24 points, for handling the Paso Doble.
One of the judges, Len Goodman is very upset with Lance and Lacey for repeatedly breaking tradition with their dance numbers. Although both Lance Bass and Lacey shine like crazy diamonds, in their routines every week; some Dancing With the Stars purists are also put off with their nontraditional dance routines, too.
Both Lance and Lacey certainly have more than a few younger fans watching Dancing With the Stars, then calling in and voting for them. If it was up to Len Goodman, he would take the both of them over his knee and paddle some sense into their behinds.
It’s not easy breaking tradition. On the one hand, Lance and Lacey really put heart and soul into their numbers, on Dancing With the Stars. If they were not breaking tradition, Lance and Lacey’s votes would be higher than they have been every week. Yet, both feel they are being true to themselves.
Last night, Lance Bass and Lacey Schwimmer did add enough paso doble moves into their routine, yet not enough to overcome Len Goodman’s assessment of their dance routine.

Lacey couldn’t resist giving Lance a most passionate kiss at the end of this number. Lacey can’t seem to help herself from being attracted to Lance Bass. Too bad Lacey, at least the two of you can be good friends while Dancing With the Stars.
First off, isn’t the whole concept of this show breaking with tradition? I have a problem with them saying that they are “disappointed” with a couple for not turning in a traditional paso when the song given to the couple is a pop song about a girl experimenting with lesbianism! That’s setting them up. If they do a contemporary routine, they can critisize them for not doing a proper ballroom routine. However, if they do a proper ballroom routine, they can criticize them by saying, “did you even listen to the song we gave you”? I have no problem with them being a-holes, but only if they are going to be equal opportunity a- holes!
