I'm not. I always found her overrated since the SYTYCD days.

Happy Maks is back, favorite male dancer!

Jenna's good, I've just never really connected with her dancing. So I think that makes her the 8th? SYTYCD dance alumni to make it pro on DWTS-along with Artem, Dmitry, Chelsie, Witney, Lacey, Allison & Lindsay. Surprised not more guys-would love to have seen Denys from Canada's SYTYCD as a pro, he's an amazing ballroom dancer, along with every other type dance.

Never cared for Ryan, don't see that changing.

I think his publicist was able to call in a few favors and get DWTS at the last minute to help Lochte's PR/image.
Lochte is not a bad guy. He just needs to grow up and make better decisions. Maybe this will be a much needed wake up call.

I don't know why but I have a soft spot for this guy. He behaves like a jerk and exhibits a lot of what I dislike in a guy but I want to see him try to turn his life around.

Just seeing that Brazil is charging Ryan with filing a false report and wanting him to come back to give testimony.

Also, here's a hint


Hint: @theartemc's partner is a published author, released a country album, and started acting when she was 9! Who is she? #DWTS by @dancingabc

No idea on the clue. Good luck on them getting Ryan back to Brazil. He'll probably pay a fine and they'll let him off like they did the other guy (who had to pay way too much imo). I think they're making it look worse for themselves now. Just move on.

Alison's partner hint


11 Grammys, say WHAT?! Can you guess who's taking the stage with @allisonholker for Season 23? #DWTS by @dancingabc

Ryan Lochte didn't just simply tell a lie though. Going into the games there was so much negativity surrounding brazil and how well they'd be able to accommodate all that comes with hosting the olympics. He and his teammates got drunk and acted like a bunch of assholes, maybe the damage wasn't that bad but he freaking peed on someone's walls, then for whatever reason he concocted this lie to his mom, who then made it public. He's 32 years old and had multiple opportunities to come clean before it got out of hand, and instead of acting like a grown up and just telling the truth at that point, he goes with it, and makes himself look like a victim and tells this story on global stage where the whole world is watching, and everyone (including me) believes him because of all the stories going in, and he 100% uses that to his advantage. And he didn't just tell this story to the media, he also filed a false police report, so brazil then had to waste police resources on this. Then after he drags the rest of his teammates into his lie, he left them holding the bag. He probably won't go back to brazil to face the music but brazilian officials are under no obligation to show any benevolence/leniency to this guy. This whole thing's rubbed me so wrong I'm skipping DWTS this season because this d*ckwad shouldn't get rewarded for his behaviour.

Babyface @lipsis E just confirmed him. Has to be him imo

Cool. At least I know who he is. LOL

He would have a lot of great songs to chose from.

Exactly. This all started because of him and his team mates, and Ryan did the wrong thing all the way until the end.
