Stupid me watched "cheaters" with amazement and amusement the other night while thinking to myself "reality TV really can't get more ridiculous than this".
WRONG
In thier desperation to win an audience Channel Nine premiered a new low in reality TV, the so very refined "Dance Your Ass Off".
Before any one gets annoyed with me for telling the dancing fatties on the show to cover up, I want to say one thing.....I'M FAT TOO. There is nothing wrong with dancing, it is a joyous thing. And there is nothing wrong with overweight people dancing, I bounce around a dance floor quite a lot, BUT, this show is an embarassment.
Taking a woman who's face has disappeared into her neck and has 500 dimples in her arse, and putting her in pink lycra and midriff tops is not a good look people!!
It's hard to concentrate on the dancing feet when her stomach is threatening to hit the floor. There was a contestant so big she would have to be in a record book somewhere who went one better. Her outfit was short shorts and a net top. Everytime she moved it reminded me of 2 vita wheat biscuits with butter, and when you squeeze them together the butter oozes out through the holes !! Little globules of fat protruded through the netting every time she did her "thang".
Another lesson in culture from the good old U.S.A.
It's actually a weight loss show if you haven't had the pleasure of watching it. I'm sure every obese person out there is just waiting thier turn to gallump around a dance floor with a skinny partner in front of a live audience. How inspiring.
The finale will probably feature one of the fatties dropping dead from a heart attack on the dance floor to rounds of applause.
I was actually embarassed for the contestants, it was like watching a horror movie. Everytime one of them tried to jump or do a bit of hip hop I had to cover my eyes because I was so scared.
So for those of you who like me, are fatties and okay with it.........I applaud you.
For those of you who are overweight and trying to do something about it..........I applaud you. But for those ten tonne tessie's who squeeze their masses into lycra, display parts of thier bodies that have lived in the shade for years and then proceed to undulate the extra flesh around a dance floor on a moronic TV show I say "PUT IT AWAY". Either that or a kaftan !!

even size 8 professional dancers are more covered up than some of the women i saw on Dance Your Ass Off
why all the midriffs and mini-skirts????
and why did every routine involve so much gyrating?
on other dance shows they do a bit of ballroom dancing in an elegant full length gown, they do some sensual latin style dances in ruffled cha-cha gowns, they might do a jive in 60s garb, all knee-length skirts and bobby socks
i just found it hard to believe they chose their own outfits, it seemed like the producers were having a strong hand in making a spectacle of the contestants
did we see Dawn Fraser, Patti Newton or Kate Cebrano in any such unflattering outfits on Dancing With The Stars? no
