David Hasselhoff and Kym Johnson are eliminated
Hm. Did you find tonight’s results “shocking”? I don’t know…maybe they were a tad bit surprising. The Hoff is somewhat beloved, and he did go on last. The Situation, Audrina Patridge or Margaret Cho would have been less surprising, but I wasn’t totally shocked. by tonight’s results…
Daughtry were tonight’s musical guests, along with India.arie and Santana. The boys sang their single, “September” and later, Chris Daughtry was back to perform “Photograph” with Santana. Really, most of that could have been done in a half hour. Lots of filler there. But, Tom Bergeron who has, at this point, become one of my favorite TV hosts (Smarter and funnier than Ryan Seacrest. Yep.) kept things running smoothly, even cracking jokes about the filler at one point. Next week, the 11 remaining pairs will be performing Latin dances.
