OK, fine - but could he have done it with the "Bride of Chucky" Marie Osmond?
I was curious about that. I never knew the Indy 500 winners get a trophy to take home. I always thought they get their faces put on the one that sits in the museum. So what kind of trophy does a Indy 500 winner get? PS: The Spice girl should have won it. She was the better dancer, but hey, that's show biz.
If its the spice girl I think it is Iam glad she didnt gob on her like a fish wife. And Should be a good dancer coz she cant sing....
They get their face/name on the full size Borg Warner, that's the one that they are presented in victory lane, that's the one on the press shots, etc. The one they get for their personal collection is the exact same thing, just scaled down so it isn't so huge. Not sure exactly how scaled down it is but it is an exact replica hence the "baby Borg" comments. Mel B did a very good job, I'm just glad Marie didn't win. Both were deserving.
Ah thanks. I second the Marie comment. I wish ABC would be more open with the numbers of callers. It'd be very interesting to see how it all plays out. Did Helio win by a landslide or just a margin? How many supporters does Marie really have? I'm still stunned over that blonde girl who got axed halfway through, she was the best dancer by a mile. Also wondered how many people on Cuban's payroll called in ...
The blonde girl was a Cheetah Girl and they dance as part of their act. And Cheetah's never win. The Spice Girl also does dancing as part her act. Even Marie has had dance traning as part of profession. So Helio was really deserving as a non-professional dancer. It would be nice if they would let us see the votes. Without letting us know it could be a landslide or a squeaker. apparently they believe they will get a bigger audience by not divulging the votes. It is a show and I suspect that the judges votes are scripted to get people outraged and vote in protest. It's total BS. I am glad that Helio won. Auto racing needs as much positive PR as it can get. Helio did a good job of representing the sport IMVHO.
I can't really think of a better driver to represent auto racing, he's humble (for the most part), energetic, fun loving, a great spokesperson. Maybe it's just me, but with all the hype around this season I think that if it was a close vote at all it would have been "in the closest vote in our history", "barely edging out Mel", or some terrible racing pun like "just by a nose", "at the line", "photo finish", something like that. I think the silence says more than anything.
+1! Mel was great but she did have past dancing experience...(well, if you can call it dancing) with the Spice Girls. Helio definately deserved it!
I believe some opportunities may have presented themselves in his fan mail that did not exist prior to DWTS.....
