Dancing With The Stars Cast Announced 8/29 (Plus, I’m Looking for Help)

08/07/2011 mj santilli 6

The new Dancing with the Stars cast will be revealed on August 29 during an episode of “Bachelor Pad”. Kill. Me. Now. Dancing premieres Monday Sept 19.

Here’s where I fall into a dilemma. I plan to live blog The Sing-Off on NBC which will run opposite Dancing. Two things can happen here: Either I post a recap of Dancing, with video later (similar to how I’ve been handling AGT) or a volunteer(s) could take over live blogging the show.

So, I am officially looking for volunteers to live blog Dancing and So You Think You Can Dance. I’ve never been comfortable live blogging these shows anyway, because my knowledge of dance is pretty non-existent (which I’m sure most of you have figured out by now).

If you are interested, contact me at mjsbigblog at gmail dot com.

Kelly Clarkson – Perfect – Alanis Morrisette Cover

Kelly Clarkson performed a benefit concert in Sudbury, Ontario Canada last night.

Apparently, the video nazis were out in full force, because right in the middle of this beautiful cover of Alanis Morrisette’s “Perfect” a security guy forced the videographer to turn their camera off. Bummer.

Watch the video after the jump.
