Based on the scores from the semifinal round, any of the five remaining All-Stars could make a strong case for advancing … but were also at risk for going home.
It’s DWTS, after all. You’re always in jeopardy until you learn you’re not.
So which two were cut, and which three advanced? The two ousted dancers on Tuesday’s Dancing With the Stars results show are pictured above. They are …
Apolo Ohno and Emmitt Smith! It’s an all-female final!

Happy 51st Birthday, President Obama!
9 months ago
The 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama turns 51 today.
We’re guessing he could use a vacation, but that it’s not an option.
Between grappling with a stagnant economy and unemployment rate, widespread global instability and a climate that is very much in flux, there’s the small matter of running for re-election in November of this turbulent year.
Simply put, he’s in the fight of his life. Can Barack get it done!?
Recent polls have Obama and Republican Mitt Romney in a tight race for the presidency. Win or lose, this one’s going down to the wire this fall.
Whichever side of

1 year ago
It’s a tough job, but someone’s gotta do it, and Fifty Shades of Grey author EL James said she did exhaustive “research” for the best-selling erotic novel in which many of her own sexual fantasies actually appear on paper.
“It was a very considered study,” James joked the explicit sex in her books during the latest stop on her book tour. “My husband still rolls his eyes and says ‘God, what do we gotta do now?’ He was very cooperative.”
“Fundamentally for me it’s still a love story,” she notes. “I think women love to read love stories. People concentrating on the sex … I can say over and

Newt, Schmewt. Mitt, Schmitt.
Herman Cain dropped out of the presidential race months ago, but that won’t stop Stephen Colbert from rallying for him in advance of today’s primary.
The Comedy Central host hit the campus of the College of Charleston Friday, joined by over 3,000 students, a marching band, cheerleaders, and Cain:

Republican Debate Smackdown: Ron Paul vs. Michele Bachmann
1 year ago
Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney lead the polls, and Rick Perry may generate the best sound bites (“best” as in most entertaining, if not intelligent), but Ron Paul proved at last night’s Republican debate that he’s still a force to be reckoned with.
Never one to bend to party orthodoxy, Paul took issue with rival Michele Bachmann’s stance toward Iran and its nuclear program, advocating anti-engagement policies that make the Texas Congressman an anathema to many in the GOP, yet wildly popular with others.
Watch the heated exchange below:

Only in America. Yesterday as you probably know Charlie spent his day in LA trying to gain fully custody of his young twin boys away from their mother Brooke Mueller who is back in rehab for the umpth-teen time.

Sarah Palin Backs Up Donald Trump, Obama "Birther" Crusade
2 years ago
In February, Sarah Palin said the “birther” issue – whether President Obama was really born in the U.S. – was a “distraction” from more important issues.
Over the weekend, though, Palin defended real estate mogul Donald Trump’s recent attempts to raise doubts about Obama’s citizenship, saying:
“I appreciate that the Donald wants to spend his resources on something that so interests him and so many Americans, you know more power to him.”
