Except....
She has not appeared in the bottom two for two weeks running despite having the second lowest score both time, dancing badly and (seeming) to not enjoy dancing either.
This means that a lot of people are voting for her, but who are they? Where are they hiding?
She doesn't have a Twitter account, and there aren't armies of tweeters supporting her. Indeed I would say over 90% of tweets mentioning her are really not very nice.
There aren't lots of Facebook groups or fan pages, or websites in general, that are supporting her.
And I'm not aware of "Sanjaya"-type campaign where people are being encouraged to vote for her just to keep the worst one on the show.
So who COULD be voting for her?
- Tony Dovolani fans - Tony has a lot of fans who love to see him dance. Plus he's a really nice guy. So maybe they're voting to keep him on the show. This has the unfortunate effect of prolonging his agony of course.
- Jon & Kate plus 8 fans - If memory serves, the show had about a million viewers a week. If only 10% of those voted for her it might be enough to keep her safe for the first few weeks. I suspect though, that the viewers of that show are the sort of people who slow down to a crawl to have a good look at traffic accidents, but aren't really the sort of people to vote continuously to keep their "darling Kate" doing something she really doesn't like. (I meant dance, not make money.)
- Sadists - they just like seeing Kate and Tony suffer every week, as well as the viewing public of America.
- Masochists - they make themselves watch and then vote to go through the same agony again next week.
No, it's the Death Stare.
It's the sort of stare that parents only aspire to. The stare that quietens a table of giggling third-graders or stops little boys about to do something they know is naughty. It could even scare off would-be child abductors. We're going to get that Death Stare when she gets voted off, and I don't want to be looking at the screen when it happens.
Anyway. Who do you think is voting for Kate?
I do not care who is voting for her. She needs to leave. No one with an attitude like that should be able to stay. Who could enjoy watching someone who is so rude and inconsiderate. Everyone on the show has been nice to her and she has been nothing but horrible to everyone. She is a living example of all of the things that are wrong in this world. GET HER OFF!!!
