“Dancing With The Stars:” The Semi-Finalists
Cristian de la Fuente, Kristi Yamaguchi, Jason Taylor and Marissa Jaret Winokur are the semi-finalists for this round of “Dancing With The Stars.” Two guys, two gals, eight legs, seven arms. I’ve told you before how much I’m rooting for Marissa Jaret Winokur, but someone would have to be a total ogre not to admire Cristian de la Fuente.
The man rips a tendon during his performance last week on live television and this week, he’s dancing his butt off like a champ. And once again, how great is Cheryl Burke? The woman is an amazing dancer and choreographer. She was able to put together moves that allowed Cristian to showcase his talent while at the same time protecting his dicey arm.
According to Marc Malkin of E! Online via Yahoo:
Fellow DWTS contestant football star Jason Taylor is lending a hand, too.
“He called the Miami Dolphins, and they sent two braces,” de la Fuente said. “It’s with metal so that helps the arm not move into a direction I don’t want it to.”
Congratulations to Cristian for hanging tough. I’ll be watching to see what he does next week.
