Big Pussy drops out of Dancing With the Stars

by Elizabeth Chan, posted Feb 28th 2007 6:30PM

Vincent Pastore is Big Pussy. Some mobsters turn the other direction when they know they are going to get whacked.

Vincent Pastore, the actor who played "Big Pussy" on The Sopranos, is adding some credibility to his character's name after announcing today that he is dropping out of the upcoming season of Dancing With the Stars.

According to the actor, "Unable to put forth my best effort, I felt it appropriate to step aside and give someone else the opportunity."

My first question for you sir is ... AGAIN?!

Does anyone remember......this is the second time he's done something similar to this.
Did he think we'd forget that he nearly quit Celebrity Fit Club on VH1? Was there no lesson learned?

All kidding aside, this is not looking to great. So far the score is:
Strenuous Reality Shows: 2
Vincent Pastore: 0

Wow. It would be nice to see who they replace. Here are my personal recommendations:
Paul Sorvino
Joe Pesci
Alec Baldwin

Who are yours?

Would have LOVED to see Joe Pesci on "Dancing With The Stars" because he is hysterical!! But, Paul Sorvino would have been good too! Why would we want to see Alec Baldwin?? Don't like what he is doing to (his wife) Kim Basinger, at all, irrgardless of his performance on "The Departed"!!!!!

What a pussy. Why in the hell did he sign up in the first place? Hadn't he seen this show before? What part of "DANCING With the Stars" didn't he understand?

Alec Baldwin would be awesome! I just hope it's not one of the other Baldwins...that would be horrible!

I guess that not everyone is cut for the reality show thing. I think that Vincent Pastore just couldn't imagine himself ballroom dancing.

I am guessing that Barry Williams is going to go on. Someone has to stop Danny Baouache.

Meatloaf will never do it, he supposely has terrible stage fright and after the American Idol disaster he can't do it.
