回复飞飞~的评论:
我也是.Kristi Yamaguchi的出色在予料之中.Jason Taylor is really surprised me. It's amazing that he is so talented, and can dance so well in short time with very nice line and elegance, considering he is a football player.

一直在跟看DANCING WITH THE STARS。：)

回复夜光杯的评论:
Tango is more passionate and dramatic. I like Waltz and Tango better in these five dances. Actually, Tango is quite different than other four dances. Other four are smooth, while Tango has staccato action. So, indeed, it's special.

[夜光杯]

I like to enjoy Tango, although I don't know how to dance it.

Flamenco have a nice week.

I just included the results. The winner Anna Demidova is Katusha Demidova's sister. You are right that most couples here also competed in Ohio Star Ball during the Saturday evening when we were there.

Not 100% sure. But I guess I see some familiar couples.

Who won?
