DWTS Week 1: Kristi and Mark - Foxtrot (The More I See You, Michael Buble)
March 22nd, 2008
Figure skating, you see, is different than ballroom dancing. In Skating, you are always flat footed. In the Foxtrot, there’s the heel lead. That is what Kristi needs to overcome in her quest to “learn something new.”
Well throw all that out of the window. Mark and Kristi did in week 1, possibly the best Foxtrot ever in the history of Dancing With The Stars. Her foot work, her lines, her spins, her charm, the music, the routine, the moon, the sun, the planets, and the stars plus Mark seemed to have all come together perfectly to produce a perfect Foxtrot for viewers to enjoy.
Kristi’s performance was effortless perfection. Other than being picky some bits of footwork by Len and Kristi’s butt sticking out, the judges agree this is as good as it gets. What week are we in? Week one. What week is Kristi in? Finals week. The rest of the show will now be the race for second place.
- Performance: 5/5
- Footwork/Posture: 5/5
- Judges: 9 9 9 (27)

At least the pain of waiting to crown her as champion is shortened by eliminating 2 suckers, err, dancers in the first round…
