Dancing Awkwardly With The Stars

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.

What the fuck? Are some of the females wearing high heels? You're hindering your ability to move well!
My dance teacher will humiliate you if you gain weight or get acne, but even she would not let you wear heels for a hip hop dance performance.

I feel like we should get a class-action suit against ABC for elder abuse. And also for ruining Rob Base and DJ EZ-Rock. Fuck off, ABC.
