PLEASE VOTE FOR ROBERT IRWIN AND WITNEY TO WIN DANCING WITH THE STARS TOMORROW NIGHT (TUESDAY)
I’m begging everyone who reads this, and believes in fairness, to please vote for Robert Irwin and his pro partner Witney Carson tomorrow night. You can do so even if you don’t watch the show. (The instructions begin six paragraphs up from the bottom, with the words “So back to my original plea,” if you’re kind enough to do it, but don’t have time to read my entire explanation here.)
Robert Irwin, who has never danced before this show, and Whitney Carson. Can you see why they deserve to win?!
Yes, I do know that doing that is the opposite of fairness, but let me explain.
The voting on Dancing With The Stars, has been sketchy for several years now. It used to be that you had to watch all the performances, so you could decide which one(s) you wanted to vote for. Then they started telling you to vote from the second the show came on, which is weird to begin with because you haven’t seen them dance yet! When ABC did away with the next-night “results show,” meaning they needed all the votes to be tabulated before the end of the live show, their only solution was “live” voting, which means that only the viewers on the East Coast can vote while watching the show!
Few people vote fairly to begin with, and then many of us around the country, (and most likely from everywhere around the world, if you care about a contestant or two,) figured-out that we can just vote on-line or by text any time in the two hours that it’s on the air in the east. Crazy, right? And all so unfair.
Also unfair is that, despite the show’s title, Dancing With The Stars, they never book any “stars” anymore, so they choose dance ringers, meaning people with a modicum of niche fame, (such as being an “influencer” or on a reality show,) who have tons of previous dance training! So, of course those contenders are good! They have the total advantage over the people who are putting in the hard work to learn a new skill just for this TV series!
Robert Irwin and Whitney Carson.
So I’m desperate for Robert Irwin to win tomorrow night! Besides that he’s one of the most genuine and lovely people to ever grace a television screen, (he’s as wonderful as his sis, Bindi, who won this very show with Derek Hough…ten years ago!,) and he’s adorable charming, to boot, he’s been dancing great! His and Witney’s routines are truly the best and most exciting week after week, so he definitely deserves to win!
It’s weird that the show is having five contestants in the finale this year. It used to always be three, and then they made it occasionally four, but five is ridiculous.
The three women left, (older actress Elaine Hendrix, “influencer” Alix Earle, and Olympian Jordan Chiles, whose freestyle will most likely feature a lot of her gymnastic skills,) are all trained dancers for their entire lives! And the two guys, cuties Robert Irwin and Dylan Efron, have zero dance experience between them! It’s just not fair if one of the females wins. (Dylan has been fun to watch, too—especially his perfect abs, which are beyond a “10”—and has come really far in his dancing, but Robert deserves the win much more.)
Emotional Terri and Robert Irwin after he did a gorgoeus dance dedicated to his late dad, Steve Irwin.
I have a feeling it will come down to Robert and Alix. So, in addition to comparing them, let’s compare their mothers! While Terri Irwin is an angel-on-earth, Alix’s stepmother is a certified hooker! No lie! After she serviced, and brought down, former New York Govenor Eliot Spitzer lo those many years ago, she then had an affair with Alix’s filthy rich father, while he was married with two little girls. She’s downright repulsive. And she had the nerve to send-out a dreadful message on social media about Guest Judge Cheryl Burke for giving Alix a “9” for a dance. Out of “10!” Disgusting. That woman doesn’t deserve any happiness because we all know she’ll view her stepdaughter’s win as her own. Grrrr. And ugh.
So back to my original plea: There are two ways to vote, and you can vote for Robert and Witney ten times on each method.
Just look at Robert Irwin, a non-dancer until this show, not only jumping over his pro partner, Whitney Carson, but with pointed feet!
To me, the easiest way is online, at www.dwtsvote.abc.com. If you’re a new voter, you’ll have to sign up with your email address. And when they want a password, you can just click the option to have them send you a one-time code for the night. And then just press the votes under the picture of Robert and Whitney until it says “10.” Then make sure to click “Save Your Votes.” I think you have to click on it in the two places they ask for it. But it’s super-easy; if I can do it, anyone can!
If you’re better with text, (which I am not,) just text ROBERT to 21523. Ten times, of course.
If you’re voting without watching the show, (which, again, I recognize is unfair, but that’s how the show is currently set-up,) you can vote any time after 8PM East Coast time, (which is 5PM Pacific time,) and for those next almost-three hours. (The voting stops about ten minutes before the end of the show, so make sure to get yours in on time, please.)
Remember, it’s not until tomorrow, Tuesday, night, but I wanted to give you plenty of notice.
Thanks to all who do it, and…go, Robert and Witney!!!
