1. Video available?
I'd love to see him take the house down!
Especially after reading all those slimy comments
on the ABC article about wanting to supply protection
for him from the "crazies." Their word, not mine!

2. I am looking for one just of Chaz.
There are ones for the entire show...and he is the last contestant. So...that would not be too bad to forward through to get to see him.

He really has a great personality and the lead in story to his dancing was, IMO, really well done.

4. Thanks!
I'd love to see it- after all, he IS the offspring of two
the most talented parents in our history, so I expect it is stunning!
Fruit doesn't fall far from the tree and all that!

8. I loved watching him
I hope his mom was someplace in the building, too. She must be so proud of him. Hell, I'M proud of him.

I read earlier today that ABC is now paying for security for him 24 hours a day because of the sheer number of threats against him.

Stay safe, Chaz, and we're voting for you and for Carson Kressley, who also lit up the dance floor!

:woohoo:

15. Ooooooooooh, Carson was GREAT!
He is quite the show man. The remark about having that suit in his closet ~~ priceless! He was totally entertaining to watch.

12. That was not a cha cha, and that was not a cha cha song, but that's hair-splitting
I would have watched but I'm too repulsed buy the thought of seeing Nancy Grace dancing even by accident.

13. Not that there is anything wrong with it
but he reminded me of Jackie Gleason. Both quite talented in their own ways.

19. I think gleason had more dance training, actually. he did some musical comedy.
Edited on Tue Sep-20-11 12:54 AM by DrunkenBoat
nothing against chaz, but i don't think he was as great as the op thinks he was -- and his part of the routine didn't demand much, either. nothing personal, just my opinion of the work.

i've seen some heavy men (& women) who were *fantastic* dancers. their size combined with their skill actually made them more interesting to watch than your typical skinny dancer -- more powerful or something. until i saw a truly skillful "fat" dancer, i'd imagined heavy people would necessarily be clumsy. not so. even in something like ballet, someone shorter & stockier than the typical dancer can be more interesting than the run-of-the-mill gamine.

but i didn't feel that way about chaz -- not that i thought he was bad, either. i just watched him & his partner -- missed nancy grace, lol. i don't watch that show -- the couple of times i caught part of it the dancing didn't move me, & i'm not so interested in celebrities.

16. I'm glad to see the link
and his performance and that he did well. I'm not watching Dancing with the Stars this year. I just got tired of it after the whole Palin thing.

17. I felt the same way over the Bristol thing...especially when she beat out Brandy.
But...watching Chaz really is a pleasure and I can see where he has talent. He and Lacey seem to relate to each other very well. Totally enjoyed watching them and I think Chaz will improve greatly over all the shows. He really comes across as a very nice person. Charming as all hell, too.

21. I'll watch him online.
I just don't want to get sucked into watching the whole thing again. Every year the righties have some awful dancer that they vote for while good dancers get knocked off. It annoys the hell out of me.

30. Yep, they will band together to pervert any system!
While Chaz was not the best dancer, his pesonality is awesome and he connected with the audience big time. Standing up and clapping for him.

31. Did you see the documentary on Oprah/OWN?
He wasn't so 'charming' and 'nice' ... very rude to his partner ... it seemed like most of the time he was ordering her around or discounting her ideas/opinions and she was cooking for him.

Must say, he seemed came across as a typical fat lazy loud redneck to me. Maybe the excessive behavior was due to the hormonal changes but wow, if that's an excuse to act like a jerk to the person who's standing by you ... then ... well?

22. Marginalizing one ignorant knucklehead at a time.
Whether CB can dance...not his personal life decision...and what CB has done with his life should be how we should view CB and ANY transperson.

23. He can dance...
...and that is no lie! :hi:

He also connects with the audience. Really entertaining personality. I watched originally to support him. I found that I enjoyed his performance very much because he and his partner, Lacey, gave a great performance this evening.
