Okay so this is sort of embarassing to admit, but when I was like 13, I was in love with Nsync (laugh all you want everyone, I adored them). Anyway so I guess that makes who my favorite dancer was pretty clear. Joey Fat One (er...Fatone but if you watch Robot Chicken, it's fat one) is my favorite if only because I loved him as a young teenager LOL. I can't help it if I thought he was made of awesome back then. Its so weird to always seem him on the TV Guide Channel stuff and red carpets. It's just cool to see him back out that, that he didn't just fade away completely!

For the dancers I'm going to go with Cheryl Burk...I'm not sure why, she seems like a good dancer and has a pretty smile. Plus she teamed up with another boy band member (Drew from 98 degrees...he was cute! You can admit it) I don't know much about any of the dancers but I answered a lot of questions about her on the BuddyTV quiz so her name is the one that sticks out in my head

I have to be honest, I'm trying to win these for a friend.

Oh and my date would be FEBRUARY 4 @ WORCESTER, MA.

EDIT: My buddy Angie REALLY wants to go to this with her 12 year old daughter, so I'm crossing my fingers now I win this for her. So pick me! Pick me! LOL I gave a really embarassing story on how I loved NSync! That's gotta earn some brownie points!

Derek Hough would have to be my favorite pro. Even though it was his first season on the show, Derek proved that he was one of the most talented choreographers of the bunch. His technique is wonderful, and he can melt a whole crowd with that smile. And who can resist rooting for him now that his little sis has taken the champion title twice?

Sabrina was definitely my favorite celeb of the season. She was a powerhouse! I had never heard of her before the show and wasn't expecting that much, but she blew me away! I don't think any other celeb has had her stamina or determination. She radiates positive energy; it was so unfortunate that she got bumped off early on in the show.

My preferred venue would be Philadelphia on February 10. Thank you so much for creating this contest! I'm crossing my fingers, especially since the tour tickets are way too expensive for a college student on a budget, lol

My favorite celeb dancer was Emmit Smith. Who would have guessed he could have danced that well? And I think my favorite professional is Ashley Del Gado - she really tried to bring out the best in her partners.

My preference would be Worcester

I've been a faithful DWTS viewer since the very beginning--even when I get angry about the winner (seriously, Emmitt Smith won over Mario Lopez?!? And Helio beat Mel B.?!? Come on).
My favorite female pro is Anna Trebunskaya (who we haven't seen enough of on the show) because she's so funny and adorable. My favorite male pro is Louis Van Amstel, who is also an amazing choreographer...and thank goodness he cut his hair from Season 1.
My pick for favorite celebrity: I'll go with Jennie Garth, because I was a fan of 90210 for the entire 10 seasons, and she was the female character I liked the most. Plus she really transformed on the show, coming out of her shell (even after that stumble week 2) and building on each performance.
Honorable mention would have to go to the Joeys: McIntyre, Lawrence, and Fatone--they were all brilliant!
I'd like tickets to either the Newark or Philadelphia shows.

This is a great idea and I am glad you are offering it. I have always loved the show for it's entertainment and the joy it brings. Nothing though prepared me for the awesome talent and dance partnership in Season 4 of Julianne Hough and her celeb partner Apolo Ohno. You were made to feel like no one else or nothing mattered when they hit the floor. They had the most natural chemistry I have ever seen on the show and such a mutual respect for each other. They are the creme on the top. Thanks again and my choice for venue is Philadelphia PA

[dondu7]

my favorite pro dancer is cheryl burke. she gives all of herself in every performance and the costumes she chooses, just make her shine even more. the choreography is amazing and she is so graceful with each step and turn. if she can teach mr newton to dance, she is a true professional. my favorite celebrity is ''mr wayne newton. it took alot of courage and dicipline for wayne to be on dwts.also, I feel he made the show more interesting, as you never knew what to expect with him. his determination ,courage and great sense of humor, made him my favorite. 'luv the tango getup ' great going,wayne and cheryl! donna

i just posted about cheryl and wayne above but forgot to put the theatre that I would like free tickets. nassau coliseum feb 1st. thank you, donna

My favorite pro dancer would be Julianne. She has amazing talent and grace at such a young age. She seems to be a nice person, and her routines are always energetic and fun to watch.
I really enjoyed the celebrities this season (Sabrina, Helio, Mel B) but Jennie Garth was one of the best. I wish she had gone to the finals, but in the amount of time she was on the show she grew so much and did amazing.
My preferred location would be Philadelphia

Drum Roll please........

Cheryl Burke and Helio Castroneves

Why? OK Cheryl to me just glides on the floor. She makes everything look so easy.
Every season the expectations of the dancers get raised higher and higher and I think she really makes her celebs work hard for the win. And throughout the seasons for the most part, she's done really well.

Helio, he's well HOT!!! He's a dare devil and he made last season so much fun. I was jealous of the KISS.. but it was great

So my venue is Nassau Coliseum, Uniondale NY Feb 1. My sister has Downs and I'd love to take her. This is our fav time together watching the show.

Thanks Loulu
