By monkseal Aaron Carter & Karina Smirnoff dancing the Argentine Tango : I’m still kind of in awe of Carrie Ann’s criticism basically being “you’re a douche and nobody likes you, because you try way too hard”.

By Margarita Hirapetian The jive was a very humbling experience. I grew up in a family of dancers and always thought of myself as a dancer until I walked onto the ballroom floor and saw all the pros from our show. I realized I’m really just a mover. It was an eye-opening experience.
