Dancing with the Stars is the Biggest Guilty Pleasure

ABC's hit show Dancing with the Stars, may be the best guilty pleasure to ever grace a television set. Over-the-top glittery costumes boasting more sequins than an '80s prom, combined with some seriously smokin' hot bodies transports you into a wonderland of acceptable raunchiness and what, pray tell, is more fun than that? Think of it as a smorgasbord of decent smut with a twist of ballroom dancing.

Every season they manage to choose stars that eventually capture your heart and no matter how hard you try, you find yourself rooting for someone. Or worse yet, cheering out loud when your favorite dancer nails the Paso Doble. (And yes, you learn the names of the dances too.)

Since it's on network TV, you can ogle everyone as much as you want and it's totally 100% acceptable. Why? Because you're concentrating on the steps, the footwork, the form. You care about the dance, not the ridiculously fit body pulsating and gyrating to the music. You're (gulp) appreciating art.

And the hot bodies just keep coming out on stage, one after another. Kym. Brooke. Toni. Karina. Julianne, a little thunderbolt of heaven. People who could care less about dancing are tuning in by the millions. For example, at least once a week during my daily commute radio personality, Bobby Bones mentions DWTS because the female dancers are so incredibly hot. He admits he watches the show solely for the hottness factor. I'm sure he's not alone.

The professional male dancers are nothing to sneeze at either. Eye candy galore! In fact, the dancers, the stars, even the hosts and the judges (like Carrie-Ann Inaba) are attractive. Might I add, the dresses and the hair pieces they find for co-host Samantha Harris are ridiculously stunning. I have no idea how she holds her head up with all of those extensions weighing her down. That's a lotta hair...

MommyQ's recap of last night is pretty simple. Lance Bass and his partner Lacey Schwimmer finally did something right. When the show began, I saw those horrible purple costumes and all of that manliner and thought, "Ewww, this is gonna be bad." But I was wrong. As soon as the Rhianna song started, the costumes immediately made sense and they performed the routine perfectly. Even the oddball faces and monster-like moves worked. It's about time! Lance is no stranger to dancing. He was in 'N Sync, right? He performed choreographed routines for a living. I knew he could bring it if given the opportunity. (Speaking of boy bands, did their routine last night remind anyone of the "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)" music video? Not a BB fan, but that was an awesomely bad video and seemed oddly familiar...)

Mama of four, Brooke Burke is impossible to beat right now because she's a really good dancer. What did you think I was gonna say? Sure, her hip-swiveling moves probably sent some folks to the hospital for heart palpitations. What's new? Former Raider, Warren Sapp had a uneventful night, but he's still going to the finals because he's so charismatic and light on his feet. How can anyone that big make ballroom dancing look so easy? MommyQ thought Toni Braxton, a fan favorite, looked confused and wobbly. Not sure why the judges didn't give her a big dose of honesty like everyone else? Hmmm.
