Although comedian-talk host George Lopez compared actress Kirstie Alley, 60, to a pig when describing her "little hooves tapping away" (he has since apologized) on the debut of ABC's latest season of 'Dancing With the Stars,' her fiery cha-cha was dazzling, earning 23 points from the trio of judges.Meanwhile, agile and athletic Kendra Wilkinson, 25, let her nerves get in the way of what should have been a stellar debut. Even though the reality star has fan support and the spunk of a professional hoofer, her antsy cha-cha with professional partner Louis Van Amstel disappointed the judges to the tune of only 18 points.
"Kendra will come back full force because she has the raw talent," a friend of Wilkinson's tells PopEater. "She just needs confidence and practice in this style of dancing, which is still new to her."
With the help of partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy, however, Alley could continue to surprise the judges and viewers. With her chirpy attitude and multiple weight loss sagas over the years, she has proven she can meet substantial challenges.
Alley is eager to succeed on 'Dancing,' which she describes as a prelude to doing a Broadway show. "I'm doing this as a challenge to see how far I can push myself physically and still live," she quipped during Monday night's episode.
And on last night's 'Tonight Show,' she admitted to Jay Leno that she was happy to have Chmerkovskiy as her partner. "I have to say that's who I wanted," she admitted. "And baby gets what baby wants."
Sexual tension does wonders!
Hot, hulking and demanding, Chmerkovskiy can intimidate her into doing better each week. Plus, the more she dances, the more weight she is likely to lose, and her energy level should skyrocket.
Listening, Kendra? Feisty and competitive, the athlete in Wilkinson is still there. She just needs to work on acquiring the elegance, style and etiquette of romantic ballroom dancing.
