Katherine Jenkins News

After umpteen seasons, it's clear DANCING WITH THE STARS can't demand its contestants abandon their sexy schtick, the costumes, the puffery that all makes DANCING what it is. So when designated Classical Week comes around, interesting combinations arise. Only so many competition shows can ask its contestants to marry Mozart with an ass-shake. Alas, these two seemingly unrelated aspects of human culture must of course be manhandled by DANCING, and the audience gets Classical Week.

DANCING WITH THE STARS runner-up Mario Lopez co-hosted this week's 'Live With Kelly!' and confirmed the news that producers of the dance competition are in the process of planning a series of 'All-Star' specials for next year's season.

Stage and screen star Matthew Broderick joined Kelly Ripa this morning as guest host on 'Live with Kelly.' While he was there he chatted about 'Nice Work If You Can Get It,' and welcomed Jenna Fischer, acclaimed director Garry Marshall and 'Dancing with the Stars' dance partners Katherine Jenkins and Mark Ballas.

During Tuesday's DANCING WITH THE STAR results show, two more couples had to face the dreaded 'dance duel'. In the end, the judges decided to save Disney star Roshon Fegan and his partner Chelsie Hightower and send home music legend Gladys Knight and her partner Tristan Macmanus.

Last night's episode of DANCING WITH THE STARS presented a tribute to Motown with live performances from Motown legends Smokey Robinson, The Temptations and Martha Reeves throughout the evening.

DANCING WITH THE STARS implemented new features into the competition to spice up another performance broadcast. For the first time in the show's history, contestants danced to the hits of Motown - while the original tracks' artists sang live. The Motown inspired special began with a montage of performances by the soulful legends: Smokey Robinson, Martha Reeves, and The Temptations. In additions, contestants this week also partook in a dance-off to rack up extra bonus points to be put towards their overall score.

It was Latin Night on last night's DANCING WITH THE STARS and Global Music Icon Carlos Santana took over the ballroom with performances of some of his classic hits throughout the evening.

After last week's shocking elimination of fan-favorite Sherri Shepherd, the DANCING competitors were widdled down to nine. Going into the halfway point of the competition, the remaining dancers and their partners were tasked with creating routines for the designated 'Latin Week.' The broadcast featured a performance by Santana, with sure-fire frontrunners emerging.

DANCING WITH THE STARS welcomed Kiss back to the stage to closeout perhaps the most impressive week of performances, 'Rock Week.' It heralded new leaders in the competition, with Donald Driver and Maria Menounos receiving the highest marks by the judges. Disney star Roshon Fegan managed to climb his way to the top of the competition, clearing former DANCING starlet, Katherine Jenkins, fell to third place points-wise after an attempt to rile up some Welsh aggression. But what came in the last few seconds of the broadcast, the star eliminated this week, was even more surprising than the performances of last night.

DANCING WITH THE STARS did away with the ball gowns, the glitz, and laid on the edge with leather costumes and daring make-up for designated 'Rock Week.' Featuring a performance by the titans of theatrics, Kiss, this week's performance show laid out the theme right from host Tom Bergeron's opening monologue. The typical DANCING broadcast this was not.

Going into the second results show of the season, the verdict wasn't in the points. From the previous night's episode, in which competitors and their professional partners constructed a routine hinged around a personal experience, two things were clear: Katherine Jenkins and William Levy had managed to secure themselves at the top of the competition, their dances yielding the first 10s of the season, and the rest fell into a big 'ol rumba-samba-jivey lump in the middle with 24s and 25s. With performances by Seal and Rascal Flatts, it was anybody's guess as to who would depart the DANCING competition, and forfeit the trophy to another celeb.

On last night's episode of ABC's DANCING WITH THE STARS themed 'The Most Memorable Year of My Life,' the remaining eleven couples were challenged to perform a meaningful dance using any style dance of their choice.

Going into the third week of ABC's DANCING WITH THE STARS after the elimination of tennis pro Martina Navratilova, the remaining contestants were given a unique assignment: rather than choose between one form of dance or another, they and their partners were opened up to any style. The catch: to center it around a personal EVENT, in order to open themselves up to the audience and viewers at home. Previously, it was known to create memorable routines that revealed the competitors as individuals, people - rather than celebrities and pseudo-celebrities vying for a nationally televised prize. The judges, were once again, overly gracious with their compliments, the critiques dulled.
