'Skating With the Stars' -- Who Is the First Eliminated Contestant? (VIDEO)

by Oliver Miller, posted Nov 30th 2010 5:27AM

'Skating With the Stars' -- Who Is the First Eliminated Contestant? 'Skating With the Stars'! It's like dancing, but -- on ice. So it's kind of like that other show -- you know -- the one with stars ... who dance. You know the show that we're talking about. At any rate, we've reached week two of 'Skating' (Mon., 8PM ET on ABC), and it's time to send someone home. Who would be eliminated first?

We'll give you a hint: Last week, this star said that they had more "looks, talent, nervous system and toughness" than all of the other players. This week ... that really didn't turn out to be the case, ice-skating-wise, at least.

Tonight's pair in the bottom two were actress Sean Young and Mötley Crüe rocker Vince Neil. Coincidentally (or not so coincidentally) they were also the only two skaters to take a tumble on the ice. Whoops. Vince had the lowest overall score, but Sean slipped and fell twice while skating tonight. So, who wouldn't make the cut?

Sadly, Sean Young was sent home, despite her much-vaunted looks, talent, toughness and all the rest of it. That's a shame! The 1980s-era movie actress and current soap star was the best reason to watch 'Skating,' as she was certainly the weirdest and most fascinating competitor.

Oh well. Goodbye, Sean! The actress took her departure with good grace, calling her time on the show "a unique experience." Which is ironic, considering that the supposed reason her career faded was her inability to handle being turned down -- either by casting directors or by, say, actor James Woods (whom she allegedly stalked). It's even more ironic that Sean lost to the fairly uncoordinated Vince Neil, considering that she was originally trained as a ballet dancer.

So what, Dick Button is gay too, and yes he's also a gold medal Olympic champion.

Whatever you mindless clown, I honestly doubt that you get much of anything. Your narrow views are an embarrassment to yourself regardless of whether or not you're too dumb to acknowledge as much.

Sean Young is weird, but I don't think she should have been the first to go. I actually thought that Bethenny Frankel was terrible!!! This show is so predictable. Bethenny is the main draw for the show and she's a drama queen. That's why she'll keep being saved (Kate Gosselin, DWTS Season 10, anyone?).

Back for more, huh? Forget it, bandying words with a biased weirdo like you is simply a waste of time. In closing I'll simply state that I believe you know what you can do with yourself if you didn't appreciate being criticized for your shameful comments.

Ok, let me make it clear, I don't care if Johnny is gay or not, I have gay friends and family, but they don't go around in frilly clothes, nail polish,and makeup. He just goes overboard trying to bring attn. to himself.

Your initial comments had already shown you to be a very narrow perosn, so you'd probably do well to stop talking at this point as this post was no better. Weir, whatever he is or isn't trying to accomplish in a given situation, owes nothing to those put off by his flamboyant behavior. I don't know what aspect of that simply escapes you.

Although I love figure skating, this host has to go! What's with 'gimmie a kiss'? He has no talent, no sense of humor and no people skills. I'll not be watching this show till he is replaced.

I love Dancing With The Stars. It's very well produced and directed...but Skating with the stars? Seriously? What's next...Hunting with the Stars...now that might be fun to watch. And Kat...how do YOU know how whoever you're talking about's mother and family feel? It doesn't matter if he won a medal or not, the rest of you missed NY's point.

This show stinks. The only person who belongs there is Dick Button, although when he was anouncing figure skating he always talked too much. Other than him, there are no stars {that didn't stop Palin}.
