Dancing With The Stars

Why does the dance competition show Dancing With The Stars include the word "Stars" in it (and how in the hell has it run for 14 seasons)?  Seriously, whenever they announce the new competitors, I always like to look at the list just so I can laugh at the complete lack of "stars".  Let's break it down and name the biggest "star" from each season (you will notice they get worse and worse, here's a complete list):

1. Evander Holyfield - world champion boxer, most known for having his ear bitten off by Mike Tyson.
2. Tie between Drew Lachey and Jerry Rice - one is the guy who married Jessica Simpson before she got fat and the other is the greatest Wide Receiver in NFL history.
3. Tie between Emmitt Smith, Joey Lawrence, Jerry Springer, and Mario Lopez - easily the best season of "stars", one is the all-time leading rusher in the NFL, one is known for saying "Whoa", one is a sleazebag, and the last taught us every thing we needed to know growing up on Saved By The Bell.
4. Billy Ray Cyrus - yikes.
5. Tie between Wayne Newton and Mark Cuban - one is an old, orange lounge singer and the other is a super-rich NBA owner.
6. Priscella Presley - I guess being Elvis's ex-wife makes you a "star", at least she starred in the Naked Gun movies.
7. Cloris Leachman - Kim Kardashian was a part of this cast and I refuse to recognize that she is even considered famous (which was b/c of a sex tape, another reason America's priorities are way off base).
8. Denise Richards - Charlie Sheen's ex-wife and worst Bond girl ever (she played a nuclear scientist, let that sink in).
9. Kathy Ireland - the third person on this list to also be in the movie Necessary Roughness.
10. Tie between Pamela Anderson and Erin Andrews - one is known for her purposely showing her boobs and the other is known for unintentionally showing her boobs (and I guess sideline reporting).
11. David Hasselhoff - probably the only person on this list that might be considered a "star".
12. Ralph Macchio - really DWTS, this is the best you could do, when was the last time he did anything besides a cameo on Entourage?
13. Tie between David Arquette and Hope Solo - I included Hope Solo because I think she is super hot and possibly the illegitimate daughter of Han Solo.
14. Jaleel White - yup, Urkel is the best they could do.

So as you can see, there is only about one person on that whole list who you could even possibly consider to be an actual "star", which means that they should officially change the name of the show to 'Dancing With Some People You May Have Heard Of'.  When Kate Gosselin, Kendra Wilkinson, and Steve-O are considered "stars", their show should never include the word "Stars".

"A Star?  Maybe in the early 90's.  Maybe."
