Dancing With the Stars inexplicably graced my television set yet again last night, but boy am I glad it did — something magical happened thanks to the producers' decision to make the contestants perform a group hip-hop routine. Cloris Leachman, the 82-year-old who has managed to stick around without doing much dancing at all, was obviously the most entertaining, but soap opera queen Susan Lucci also made me chuckle quite a bit. And my former boyfriend Lance Bass busted out some old school *NSync "Bye Bye Bye" moves (yes, I knew the dance, don't judge).
Despite the awesomeness provided by the contestants, I was left speechless after the routine had ended. I didn't want to talk about what I had just witnessed, because I'm still not sure exactly what the hell happened.
Behold the beauty of Dancing With the Stars' future champion, Lance Bass. We're pretty sure he's pointing his fingers and smiling with his eyes, which can only earn him extra points from the judges. Seriously though, we have a feeling it's going to be a battle of the divas this season: Susan Lucci, Cloris Leachman and Kim Kardashian are going to be tough competitors; the first two because they're awesome and the last one because she's a famewhore. Hopefully America will prove us wrong, but we've stopped expecting much.

I don't watch Dancing With the Stars but it's looking like I'll have to this season, thanks to the participation of my former boyfriend, Lance Bass. The official cast was announced today, and it also includes Kim Kardashian, Jeffrey Ross, Cloris Leachman and Susan Lucci.
But enough about the D-listers: Lance has officially been on America's radar for 10 years thanks to *NSYNC's July 1998 Disney special. At right is a clip from the show that made me fall in love. Who knew 10 years later Justin would date and dump Britney Spears, Joey would appear on DWTS and host a karaoke show, JC would judge some dance crew competition, and Chris would completely fall off the planet. Congrats, Lance: You're following the path of all great boy band has-beens.
Soap legend Susan Lucci has hit the bigtime: A wax figure in the shape of the All My Children star was unveiled today in New York City. We know these things are supposed to be realistic and all, but we really can't tell which one is which.
