'Dancing With The Stars' Results: Aaron Carter Spins Out
11 November 2009 6:00 AM, PST | MTV Newsroom | See recent MTV Newsroom news »
''You're an inspiration to all young people that anything is possible. If you were my son I would be so proud of you.'' That's what "Dancing with the Stars" judge Len Goodman said to Aaron Carter at the end of last night's episode, ending the pop star's run on this season's championship. While Carter always seemed to be working slightly beneath his potential, he tended to play the role of whipping boy and the judges seemed to be extra hard on him. On balance, he was always a little underrated.
This week's episodes were wildly entertaining and saw Mya shake her way to the season's first perfect score. Carter always seemed like he could play spoiler, but now that he's gone, this competition is hers to lose. In fact, there isn't even really a viable challenger, as while Donny Osmond, Joanna Krupa and Kelly Osbourne are all excellent, they're totally the B team. »

Aaron Carter Sheds Tears and Susan Boyle 'Dreamed a Dream'
11 November 2009 5:25 AM, PST | TheInsider.com | See recent The Insider news »
Visibly upset about his elimination from "Dancing with the Stars," Aaron Carter let the waterworks flow as he reminisced about his experience on the show. It is hard for Aaron to comprehend that his journey has ended with partner Karina Smirnoff: "It's kind of like a cold feeling inside, but she's heating up for me, making it bearable...It's coming to an abrupt ending." Kelly Osbourne came over to console the distraught Aaron, embracing him in a hug. Aaron told "The Insider" that she whispered in his ear that he's "grown into a man in the competition." Kelly said of offering her shoulder to cry on, "People need to give him so much more credit than they have. I can imagine it can hurt your ego thinking that people aren't voting for you." Still very much contenders for the mirror ball trophy, Kelly and partner Louis van Amstel have »

Aaron Carter: I Grew Up on Dwts
11 November 2009 4:54 AM, PST | People.com - TV Watch | See recent People.com - TV Watch news »
Aaron Carter had a breakthrough like few others have had on Dancing with the Stars: He arrived a teen idol but left a man. "I grew up on the show," he told People after he was eliminated Tuesday night. "There were a lot of epiphany moments and I learned a lot from [pro partner Karina Smirnoff]." He likened Smirnoff’s support to the way his father encouraged him. "It was almost like my father a little bit because my dad ... taught me so many different things, but the way he did it, he only had to do it once," he says. "She did the same thing. When it came to learning something about me, she only had to say something one time." The couple bounced up and down the leaderboard, and their determination impressed the other dancers, as well as the judges, who praised his fox trot and samba Monday night. Even Len Goodman, »

Dancing with the Stars Cuts Aaron Carter
11 November 2009 4:53 AM, PST | TVfanatic | See recent TVfanatic news »
From spoiled pop star to mature, respected dancer.
Aaron Carter came a long way on season nine of Dancing with the Stars - but he didn't go far enough to earn the crystal ball trophy.
Carter and Karina Smirnoff were eliminated from the competition this week, but the former reacted as humbly as one can. He said:
"One thing I will always remember and take from this competition is definitely the lessons that I've learned. I've grown so much with your compliments and your criticisms, so thank you. Thank you for helping me to be able to grow on this show."
Who knows what the future holds for Carter, but we can't remember anyone receiving more praise from Len Goodman upon his departure.
"I think the dedication that you have shown week after week is absolutely fantastic. I think you're an inspiration to all young people that anything is possible, »

Review: Dancing with the Stars - Performance 8 Results
10 November 2009 9:32 PM, PST | AOL - TVSquad | See recent AOL - TVSquad news »
(S09E17) Dancing with the Stars continues to chug along having five couples become four. With such a small number, the results shows feel even more stretched out, slowly saving contestants one at a time.
Encore - Joanna & Derek - Paso Doble - Len thought that even though Mya had the higher score, the paso was so detailed that it deserved the encore. The two actually looked better with their hair tonight than last night; I could tell that it was them. On the second time around, I believed that they deserved a 30 and Mya only should have gotten a 29.

'Dancing with the Stars': Aaron Carter Goes Home, Top Four Unveiled
10 November 2009 8:27 PM, PST | Celebrity Mania | See recent Celebrity Mania news »
It's the end of the line for Aaron Carter as he was voted off from "Dancing with the Stars" competition. On Tuesday, November 10, the pop singer and his professional partner, Karina Smirnoff, were announced to be the latest pair to be eliminated from the ABC's hit dancing competition.
After saving himself in a dance off against former football star Michael Irvin last week, the 21-year-old fell to the bottom two along with competitor Kelly Osbourne. Although he has shown steady improvement in his technique, the lowest combined total between his scores from the judges and viewers' votes sent him packing in the end.
Despite the elimination, the younger brother of Backstreet Boys' Nick Carter stayed positive. "One thing I will always remember and take from this competition is definitely the lessons that I've learned," he said after the cut-off. "I've grown so much with your compliments and your criticisms, »

Aaron Carter Exits 'Dancing with the Stars'
10 November 2009 8:08 PM, PST | Aceshowbiz | See recent Aceshowbiz news »
One of the dancers of "Dancing with the Stars" this season has been extracted from the competition to leave four people in the semifinals. Taking the fall in the eighth week would be Aaron Carter and his partner Karina Smirnoff. Carter stumbled when he was required to dance the Foxtrot. He only managed to score 23 out of 30, the lowest number outed on the Monday night performance.
It was between Carter and Kelly Osbourne on the result night, but Osbourne had a slight win from the judge and apparently the audience. Saying goodbye to the competition, Carter said, "One thing that I will always remember from this competition is the lessons I've learned. I've grown some much with your compliments and your criticisms, so thank you. Thank you for helping me be able to grow on this show."
Those advancing to the semifinal round apart from Osbourne would be Joanna Krupa, »

Semifinals Are Set on Dancing With the Stars

Perfection paid off for Mya. As expected, the R&B songstress was voted into next week's semifinals on Dancing With the Stars. But which three of her fellow celebs were given passage to join her? As musical guest Susan Boyle knows, being the favorite doesn't necessarily mean you're going to go all the way. For instance, the fans have been loving Donny Osmond all season, but their last glimpse of him had him looking like a Rocky Horror Picture Show reject. Aaron Carter has smoothed over most of his initial kinks but had to dance for his life last week. Kelly Osbourne has regained her confidence, but do the voters still have faith in her moves? Meanwhile,... »

Mya Talks with Movieline About Dancing with the Stars, Excruciating Pain, and Her Childhood Hatred of Performing
10 November 2009 4:40 PM, PST | Movieline | See recent Movieline news »
Singer Mya's Billboard-charting history in R&B, pop, and hip-hop now seems like required briefing ahead of her newest venture: dazzling the over-animated judges on Dancing with the Stars. As the highest-scoring competitor of Dwts's ninth season, Mya seems poised to win it all with her seemingly shirt-allergic partner Dmitry Chaplin. Her success against contestants like Kelly Osbourne and Donny Osmond may not be a surprise considering her past in choreographed music videos ("Case of the Ex," "My Love is Like Wo," and the Grammy-winning remake with Christina Aguilera, Lil Kim, and Pink, "Lady Marmalde" spring to mind), but she is nonetheless thrilling to watch. Mya talked with Movieline to recount the near-perfect scores she garnered on this week's samba and quickstep, the impact of Savion Glover and Gregory Hines on her life, and her most intimidating "Lady Marmalade" co-writher. »
Monday’s Dancing: What You Didn’t See
10 November 2009 10:58 AM, PST | People.com - TV Watch | See recent People.com - TV Watch news »
Dream Come True: As Britain's Got Talent sensation Susan Boyle, whose first CD will be released Nov. 23, slowly made her entrance onto the Dancing with the Stars stage late Monday afternoon to pre-tape a performance, which will air on Tuesday's results show, the crowd burst into applause. Boyle looked elegant in a black sequined gown, her hair coiffed to perfection. Despite battling a case of pre-show nerves, Boyle was completely in her element once the orchestra began playing the opening notes of her signature song, "I Dreamed a Dream" from the musical Les Miserables. Dancers Tony Dovolani and Chelsie Hightower performed an elegant routine to Boyle's spot-on vocals. But because of a wardrobe malfunction -- Dovolani's bowtie came unfastened from his tuxedo shirt -- they had to do a second take. Unbelievably, it was even better than the first.

Sure, Mya and Dmitry Chaplin grabbed a perfect 30 with their '70s-themed samba on last night's Dancing With the Stars, but the singer says Donny Osmond was the real star of the night.

For weeks, Mya has endured critique after frustrating critique from judge Len Goodman on Dancing with the Stars. If he wasn't complaining about her routines lacking content, it was that they were too theatrical. But during Monday night's quarterfinal competition, Len said his only disappointment with with her routine was, "I couldn't find anything to criticize." The singer and her partner Dmitry Chaplin opened the show with a bang, nailing the quickstep and earning 29 points.
