Who Will Make it to the Finals?

I thought that Warren was amazing this week. Kym is being very smart with him. She looks amazing and moves well and she choreographs around him so that it is his show. She's found what he's great at and they are doing it over and over and over. I could point out five or six moves that they've done in every Latin dance so far, and there's nothing wrong with that. The public loves it, they are doing them well and if it's not broken, why fix it?

Brooke is a shoo-in for the finals, but you never know what is going to happen. I think she's definitely the best one right now, but it is all fan base. We've seen seasons where Mario Lopez was clearly the best dancer and he was second, we've seen a season where Stacey Kiebler was clearly the better dancer and she didn't make it to the final two and we've seen a season where Mel B. was clearly the better dancer (in my totally biased opinion) and she lost. You don't know how it is going to play out. Brooke is doing great right now. I think everybody should be afraid of Warren, because he's following the Emmitt Smith path... and by the way, he won. Warren is making a lot of fans right now. He's being nice and sweet and he's light on his feet. And he's doing crazy stuff. That running thing with the wave with his hand was so cute.

I think this is going to be fun and I can't wait to see what's going to happen next week. I've said a lot. I think my tongue is a lot more open now because I'm not in the middle of it, but also because I took a season off to reevaluate what is dear to me. I think what is most important to me, is to be me. My opinion will absolutely make people mad, or it will make people happy, but there is not going to be anybody who is impartial and that's what I'm mostly looking for. I don't want people to agree or disagree with me because of how I look on TV. I want them to base it on my opinion.

It is very important to me for me to be clear about where I'm coming from. I'm not hating on anybody. I love everybody, but it is important for me to have the show represent what we do. I want everybody out there to understand that this is my life. This is who I am. I am not a celebrity. I'm a dancer and a professional. I've done this since I was four years old. I've dedicated my entire life to it. I'm one of the most dedicated dancers in this industry. I've given up everything financially and time-wise. There were moments when I would have a birthday party, my own birthday, and if it would interfere with a dance class, I would have guests in the house, I would get up and say, "I'm really sorry, but I'll be back in three hours," and I would go and go to my dance class. This is how dedicated I am. So this is why I cannot not say something when I see something like this. It is very unjust and upsetting because I'm a really big fan of the show. What it's done for the industry is incredible. There's a lot of great ideas that they can do to keep making the show better.
