My Trashy Pro Opinions

Some anon’s asked for this and I am prepared to be dragged to hell and back for it. Remember these are only from Season 19 on. Also, didn’t count Anna, Edyta or Louis. Cause I don’t really care about them. 

Keo- I love Keo as a DANCER. I am not a huge fan of him as a TEACHER. I think he handles the crazy better each season though and has learned to just roll with the punches at this point so that is a point for him. He is sexy as hell though, and so funny and sweet.

Sharna- OBVIOUSLY my favorite. I love her. She can be extra sometimes but I think that is what makes me love her. Her partnerships are some of my absolute favorites. She is that person that your eyes are drawn to at any given point. She doesn’t take a lot of shit, she speaks her mind. She is obviously my favorite at everything.  She is a fantastic choreographer. She knows her strengths and weaknesses in teaching. She can teach, through her incredible partnerships, a double amputee. She can highlight her partners strengths, teach her partners the movement in the right ways to highlight their strengths. Her dancing is show stopping. My eyes are drawn to her every time she dances. The partnerships are part of the teaching.

Karina- I have never cared much for her just because she was gone early both seasons I have watched her on. I don’t really have many thoughts about her TBH

Tony- I love Tony. Tony is a doll and so funny. When I watched him he had the older females compared to the older seasons when he had potential. So i liked seeing him just kinda doing what he does without too much pressure because he knew the likelihood of him winning was slim to none. I loved his dances with Marla the most. 

Alison- Okay I have a love hate relationship with Allison. I loved loved loved her and Riker. I loved their dances and their partnership. But her other 3 were just meh for me. Her choreography was just never appropriate for beginners, in my opinion. She tried to do too much for them. It worked for Riker because he was trained. But someone like Andy Grammer and Babyface, they aren’t trained. And she just gave them more than they can handle. She’s an amazing Contemp dancer, just not my favorite ballroom.

Cheryl- The OG. I love Cheryl. She is no shits taken, hard ass TEACHER. She is funny and sweet and I love her. I thought her and Ryan were adorable and she was SO GOOD for him. She really tries to push her celeb and she is good. Her dancing is gorgeous too. 

Emma- Sweet sweet Emma. I love that girl! I love that now that she has won, she is not putting pressure on her celeb. She is still just enjoying her time on the show. She really showed her patience and versatility with her oldies then when she got someone like Rashad she still just enjoyed it and put her best foot forward. She is a joy to watch. I have never seen her get angry or have a fight. I just adore her.

Artem- my velvet! I love me some Artem of course. I fell in love with him during his switch up with Janel in Season 19. That had nothing to do with his choreography and everything to do with holy mother of god he is gorgeous. I loved him and Lea. She was absolutely amazing and his dances with her really were good. And Ms. Patti oh man she was incredible and he seemed overjoyed to be with her. He had a little rough patch and then him and Nancy were great. I just love his quiet bad boy nature I think. Love him. My man.

Peta- okay. This is where the dragging starts. Peta is GORGEOUS and an incredible dancer and super funny. I just never find myself rooting for her partners. I did love Tommy and Nyle, but I wanted Paige to win. I loved her more. I have always just been middle of the road in relation to her. 

Derek- Derek is an amazing choreographer and an amazing teacher, but really just a conceited prick of a man. He did good with Bethany, I liked that partnership overall (probably because I liked Sadie and Bethany’s friendship more). Liked him and Bindi, just thought he focused more on her dad’s passing and getting that sympathy shit than I appreciated. Then he pissed me off with the Nastia thing. Wasn’t going to come back because he had too many other things going on but OH Nastia is doing it so he came back, they had atrocious shitty schedules that I think  played a part in her downfall. It just pissed me off. bleh. 

Val- oh man. val val val. I think Val is the hottest of hot, right behind artem in my opinion. I think he is cocky as shit (though I think this season he is a whole different person). I don’t like some of his styles. I don’t like when he talks back to the judges. He was coasting by for a couple years there, but he seems to be refreshed and I will say his partnerships are tied with Sharna’s for my faves. He is an incredible partner I will give him that. 

Mark- My personal favorite choreographer. His creativity and his style and his swag I just adore. Minus ALexa (even though she had one of my favorite mark dances), I love his partnerships. I think he is a great teacher, I have always liked what he creates and I have always like his goofy and quirky nature. He is incredible.

Witney- Okay, the reason I am even making this is because anons assumed she was my least favorite. Which is not at all the case. My problem with Wit is she got Alfonso and kicked ass. Even with outside help, she kicked ass. Then she didn’t get so lucky on her partners. And she just checked out. She lost the fire to create and like she just didn’t really give two shits anymore. Her only partner with some oomph was Carlos and he got his best score and had his best dance when LINDS taught him during switch up week. It is very nice to see her get the sparkle back though I will say that.

Kym- Love her. She is a doll. Her and Robert are just the freaking dream. But otherwise? No real thoughts about her

Sasha- Sasha as a pro, sasha as a pro. Okay I loved Sasha and Kim, Sasha and Terra. when he put no pressure on himself, he was a great pro. I think with simone, while I love their friendship, he got caught up in the ringer aspect and kinda lost it there. I like his dancing overall, would love it if he would just stop flipping all the time. He is like a hyper little squirrel I want to feed some ritalin to. He just needs to come down about 4 notches in everything he does. But God he is funny and his pranks are the best.

Jenna- Jenna as a pro, Jenna as a pro. I don’t think it’s fair to really comment on it much but I am going to anyway. She needed to learn how to be a pro to untrained celebs more. She gave him harder choreography than he could handle, she was very consoling after their shitty scores on week one so that is good. I think she just got caught up in the idea of being a pro more than understanding how to actual train beginners. 

Maks- *prepares to be dragged* I.HATE.MAKS. okay there is is. I cannot stand him. I don’t like him. He is preachy, cocky, talks over people, has to be the center of things. I just can’t with him. Granted yes he is a little calmer since the cutest baby was born. BUt still. Can’t. can’t handle him. But he has a KILLER ass so there is that. 

Gleb- I like him this season. Haven’t before but really like him this season so far. Every single dance had to be sex and I am glad he is not doing that this season. I didn’t like him and Jana at all, overrated as hell and she annoyed me. Erika’s dances were a bit too much for the 8 PM hour, though her VW was pretty. I am just glad to see him do things a little differently

Alan- MY BABY ALAN! He did so good on his first time out as a pro. He was caring, attentive, only gave Debbie what she could handle. I thought he was amazing and I love him to pieces and yeah LOL

Lindsey- my second favorite. I adore her. She is an amazing choreographer and partner, she has some of the greatest little partnerships. I think she is just phenomenal. She is caring and attentive and honest. I just love her. I have always rooted for her too.
