Chaz Bono Totally Rad On DWTS’ 80s Night
Posted on Oct 18, 2011 @ 11:30AM
Chaz Bono continues to blossom.
Dancing with the Stars' first-ever transgendered contestant dialed up his dancing on Monday, wiggling his derriere to a samba set to “Get Down On It” by Kool and the Gang in a performance many were calling Chaz’s best-to-date on the ABC dance show.
Chaz's partner Lacey Schwimmer enlisted her dance coach father Buddy to help Chaz come out of his shell on the dance floor.

"Chaz's weakness with the samba is mainly just him being shy," Lacey said. "Him shaking his butt in front of millions of people is not his forte!"
The judges were moderately impressed with Chaz’s newfound enthusiasm, giving him scores of seven across the board for a total of 21.
"That was the most dancing I've seen you do," Carrie Ann Inaba told him, while Bruno Tonioli said,"You've got the bounce going!

"It was like a dribbling basketball! You were giving the wiggle, which is not easy to do."
"Gallant effort," Len Goodman said. "Technique was lacking here and there, but what I liked is that you came out and really gave it a go."

All she (Chaz) does is basically stand there and let Lacey twirl around her....how do you call that "dancing"? The only reason she is still on is because Cher is begging everyone she knows to vote for her. The fat cow has no talent.

My jaw dropped when the judges said that she improved., she just stayed in the corner by that makeshift bar with her zipper down. The only reason Chasity is still on the show is because of her mom and the gay and lesbian groups.

She is still so feminine in so many ways..I think growing up with Cher as a mother would screw anyone up big time..

I feel sorry for Chaz. He just doesn't seem to fit in anywhere. I blame Cher's self-centered, crazy lifestyle for
his inner anxieties.

Cher is a horrible mother. She should be there supporting Chaz EVERY Monday.Cher's tweets hate on Palin but Palin/and/or her husband came all the way from AK many times to support struggling Bristol on DWTS. Cher is in MALIBU!!! Lazy diva.
