Although Bristol Palin has vowed to stay conservative with her clothing choices on Dancing With The Stars this season, one former constant is betting viewers will get their fair share of flesh from none other than The Situation.
“I want to see how many dances he’s going to do with his shirt off,” former Dancing contestant Louie Vito said. “That’s his trademark, so I want to see if they’re going to play that up or not.”
Not shy about his physique, Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino is sure to be shedding some clothing during Season 11 of the ABC hit show. And although Sorrentino already labeled himself the underdog, Vito isn’t so sure that the Jersey Shore star will be exiting the stage too early in the season.
“It’s all about the package,” Vito said. “If the package is good then they’ll do well with people voting. I think The Situation could have some good packages. I’m interested to see how he’s going to do without the rest of his crew with him.”
But make no mistake about it, Vito isn’t necessarily hoping The Situation takes home the Mirrorball trophy at the end. He’s more of a Michael Bolton fan this season, who is teaming up with Vito’s season 9 partner Chelsie Hightower.
“I always have to cheer for Chelsie ,” Vito said. “She’s my girl there. I’ll always cheer for her no matter who her partner is.”
It was a double elimination at Dancing with the Stars Tuesday night and actress Melissa Joan Hart was the first to go.
“I kind of went deaf when he announced my name, and then I went, ‘Oh no, was that us?’” Hart recalled after the show. “I’m going to miss the costumes, the lights, the music [and] walking down the stairs.”
And what about her partner Mark Ballas?
“I feel like I’m going to see him all the time. I’m not going to be able to get rid of this guy,” she joked.
Ballas says he was proud of her dancing, especially since she had never danced before appearing on the show. He reminded Hart about her Charleston, which earned her high marks and sent her to the top of the leader board a few weeks ago.
“You’ll always have that Charleston. You’ll always have that 10,” he told Hart. “A lot of people don’t get that.”
Hart says she will miss the other couples, including snowboarder Louie Vito and his partner Chelsie Hightower who also performed their last dance this week.
In the show’s first ever dance-off, Vito and NFL football player Michael Irvin — who had the lowest scores — were forced to compete and perform 30 seconds of their favorite style of dance. The judges decided who would stay.
“I hate losing. I hate it. It’s probably one of the worst things in the world for me,” says Vito, who danced the jive while Irvin chose the samba. “I really wish I was on the other side of this one and (Irvin) was shaking our hand and congratulating us and they were going home. That’s the competitor inside me.”
