SugarB Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Wonder how much they had to retouch that photo to make her leg look so pretty and perfect? Honestly, she's 80-something, do they really expect us to believe that is real? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WickedOne Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Saw her on Two and a Half Men lastnite. She's VERY wrinkled and somewhat stiff but giving credit where credit's due. I'm a fan of hers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uvp Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 when she got a 6 i knew Carrie Ann had to be smoking something strong she was a 4 at best but a 10 for effort but i did find her renny attention whoring behavior a bit annoying jmho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowpoke Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Did anyone notice how firm her arms were ? I didn't see any visible (upper) under arm flab at all. Looked like the arms of a 30 yr. old. Not bad for a gal her age. She probably won't last last... and I bet she knows she won't either. Kudos to her for taking a stab at it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonoerin Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I read somewhere today, either on ETonline or EWonline, that Cloris was "voted the contestant most likely to drop the f-bomb on live tv". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SugarB Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 She's a bleeping trainwreck, but I have to say I laughed my ass off at her last night. She does very well for 82 -- 82!!!! It's incredible really. But she is not even in the same league as most of the other dancers. Now if they had Geriatric DWTS, she'd be in it for the win!!

jersey721 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 We all know this show is not only about dancing ability. Heck, speaking of trainwrecks, Marie Osmond made it to third place. And Cloris's Mambo, even at 82, was much better than Marie's Dancing Doll free-style. I don't mean to imply that Cloris will win, but she could be around for a while.

Slowpoke Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 L O L ... it was like watching an old re-run of a LUCY bit .... They've showed us some older guys with humorous remarks and dances to keep us watching - about time the ladies got a chance to 'ham it up'. You GO GIRL ... I'll be watching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superstaaar Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Oh my...she is just freakin' hilarious!! It's so funny watching Tom and her partner trying to keep her under control. I had tears rolling down my cheeks the last two nights watching her!!!!!!! The swearing, the bribing, Len's being a boy toy, the cleavage, the roaming, the leg on the desk...the list just keeps going and going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
