I admit it. I have become additcted to Dancing with the Stars. It is unexpected because I have fastidiously avoided these shows because I knew my personality would cause me to get totally sucked in. Well, I did. Like I needed another tv show to distract me. I can't even knit while I watch this one because I have to actually watch! It is a pleasure though, because those pros are so talented and the stars are working so hard. I am favoring Apolo and Julianne. They have a wonderful rapport and are so fun to watch. I really like Joey Fatone, too-he gets the whole dancing thing. Then there is Heather Mills, who is amazing because she dances with a prosthetic. Wow.
Anyway, I had a feeling about Julianne-didn't know anything about her-and yep, I was right. She is a Mormon! Go Julianne! She is not a product of BYU's dance program. She left home early and studied in London. I just knew she had that special little sparkle though. She is only 18-what a talent. I hope she can stay sane.
The other unexpected pleasure came as I was looking for info about her. In surfing around, I found her myspace and the above music was playing. It captivated me. The name is Kalai. If you like acoustic guitar, strong melody, hints of other musical traditions, and a beautiful voice, you might like him.

I am totally into Dancing with the Stars too. I like watching. I will have to listen to the music, it sounds like something I would really like.
ReplyDeleteI've watched an episode and really enjoyed watching Apolo and Julianne. The judges kept saying how young she was and what a great teacher she is, but I didn't know she is LDS. That's awesome! I'll have to do some googling and read up.
ReplyDeleteI watch DWTS every now and then, but have avoided putting it on my Tivo list because I really just watch too much TV. That's fun that Julianne is mormon! I had a good laugh at Laila Ali's fiance watching them practice last time. :)
