I'm Actually Watching "Dancing With the Stars?" I Don't Believe This...

People have made jokes about "Dancing with the Stars" for ages now and I have always more or less written it off and something definitely not for me

HOWEVER  a couple of weeks ago I watched it closely and found myself getting drawn in (damn).

It IS corny and over the top and everything else but hell a lot of this dancing is FANTASTIC  and someone like Noah Galloway, who is more an athlete than a dancer ( and almost a sob story amputee Iraqi vet who has overcome incredible obstacles)-- I can't help but find a lot of this interesting to an extent much greater than I would have believed possible.

It isn't just Noah Galloway and his partner, they are ALL excellent and worth watching..

I am just posting this story to show the corny side of it again and how somehow Noah and all these people somehow transcend the limitations of the whole genre.

I don't know if I will be watching Monday night or not ( I am not watching the whole show tonight-- like, this guy Riker is a REAL born dancer and his Capt. Jack Sparrow bit was amazing)

I am beginning to sound like a fan...well I am, SORT OF

You Won't Believe the Gift Noah Galloway Received for Making It to the Dancing with the Stars Finals

Wishes continue to come true for Noah Galloway

The Dancing with the Starscontestant – who's set to compete in the finals Monday and Tuesday on ABC – was gifted a motorcycle after he told PEOPLE that he wanted one to go with his new leather jackets from Kenneth Cole. Besides becoming a fan favorite on DWTS, Galloway is also a spokesman for Kenneth Cole's Mankind fragrance. 

The 33-year-old Army veteran, who just got engaged last week on the ABC show, posted a picture of himself straddling a new Harley Davidson on Instagram.

"Yesterday got a call from @harleydavidson," he wrote. "They felt bad that I wasn't able to get a motorcycle because I bought my beautiful fiancé a ring instead. Harley Davidson offered to give me, and modify, my own bike. Today they dropped by to show me a few. What an incredible gift from such a great company." 




In April, Galloway told PEOPLE that if he makes it far enough on DWTS, he will consider buying a motorcycle. Galloway also plans to start using a prosthetic arm, even though he tried one – but ultimately scuttled it – on DWTS

"I do see myself wearing it," Galloway told PEOPLE. "I said that, if I make it so far into the show, I was going to buy a motorcycle. If I'm going to drive a motorcycle, I gotta have an arm. So I see myself wearing an arm in the future. (His fiancé) Jamie is okay, kind of, but she'd rather I didn't. But I've gotten two leather jackets from Kenneth Cole, and I feel they can't go to waste without a motorcycle. So blame Kenneth Cole."
