David Alan Grier was interviewed recently about a bunch of things, including his comedy career and who makes him laugh. But he also sounded off and slightly slammed the hit show Dancing with the Stars, which he was on last season.
Dancing With the Stars is so Middle America, and people take it so seriously. And that's not really my thing. It was like running for prom king because people vote for who they like or don't like. It's not simply, "Oh, you're a great dancer." It's not the Olympics. It's a cheesy reality show. The audience votes for who they like. If the audience doesn't like you, they're not gonna vote for you. If there's a guy next to you who really sucks but they like him, they vote for him. That's the nature of the show. Everyone who does the show, their career is enhanced ... except for me. I'm the only guy who did the show and had to issue a public apology in order to restore my career.
You think he's just upset he didn't win, or does he have a valid point? I'm kinda leaning toward it being a mix of both.
