It has finally happened, Steve Wozniak has officially been eliminated from Dancing with the Stars. Woz survived about four weeks and performed in dances such as the ChaCha, the quick-step, and the samba. Woz has fractured a foot and a pulled hamstring to make it through the competition. Its been a rough ride.
Former Playboy cover model Holly Madison was also eliminated from the competition.
In the last dance, Wozniak and partner Karina Smirnoff did the Argentine tango. The dance is demonstrated in the below video. I think you’ll enjoy the beginning of the video where he rolls around with a Segway entourage.
We’re all rooting for Steve Wozniak on Dancing With The Stars. The man started off with a fractured foot and recently pulled a hamstring. But that did not stop him from doing the worm and the Samba dance on the last episode. Check out the video below.
Wozniak and Smirnoff were told on Tuesday that they would move forward to the next round. “I was more shocked than anytime in my life,” stated Wozniak. “Maybe except when I got served with divorce papers.”
The night before the last episode, Wozniak received a terrible score, 10 out of 30. That was the lowest that anyone received since the second season of the show. He had to dance off with another couple to avoid elimination. Wozniak credited his fans for motivating him to avoid having to deal with a second dance off.
Denise Richards was sent home as a result of the dance-off against Wozniak and Smirnoff.
One of the judges told Wozniak to get on his knees and beg for forgiveness because that was the worst Samba he had ever seen. What a jerk.
“I’m not sure why the judges almost always have the same scores within a small range. How do they all know what level of lowness or highness to score? All three judges had scored me incredibly low,” added Wozniak. “They tried to get me to back out because of embarrassment, saying the judges might give me 2’s. I said I don’t get embarrassed.”
Keep voting for Wozniak everyone. He his dancing his ass off.
Yesterday Steve Wozniak claimed that he was set up by the TV show Dancing With The Stars. Woz said that if he was in the bottom two and would have to compete in a dance-off, it would be “an outright lie.” He believes that having to dance off would help boost ratings.
It turns out that Woz was in the bottom two and won the dance-off. This caused Belinda Carlisle, a former 80’s singer to get kicked off.
Even though Woz’s conspiracy theory ended up happening, he apologized anyway. “Yesterday, I wrote my suspicions of the secret ‘Dancing With The Stars’ audience vote tabulations. I wrote that the producers were liars, simply because I truly believed in that possibility, not because I had a shred of evidence. I hurt a lot of honest people,” stated Woz.
Woz decided to keep dancing even though he fractured his foot. I think he did a great job even though it must have been painful.
Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak was told that he was like a Teletubby going mad at a gay parade when he did his first dancing on “Dancing with the Stars.” And if that wasn’t rough enough, the poor guy just fractured his foot too. This is the same reason why Jewel and Nancy O’Dell stepped down from the show, but this won’t stop him from continuing. Karina Smirnoff, Woz’s dancing partner visited him at the Cedars-Sinai Hospital to find out that he has a removable cast.
Woz’s doctor told him that he can continue on the show as long as he wears the cast as much as he can. Woz vows that his performance next week will be “wild and fast, and all-over and crazy and fun, just like the first one.” With a partner like Smirnoff, I can see why he would want to keep going on.
What does Steve “Woz” Wozniak have in common with Lil’ Kim (rapper), Steve-O (Jackass fame), Nancy O’Dell (Access Hollywood fame), Lawrence Taylor (NFL), Shawn Johnson (Olympic gymnast), Chuck Wicks (country music artist), Gilles Marini (Sex and the City), Denise Richards (actress), Belinda Carlisle (The Go-Gos), David Alan Grier (actor), Ty Murray (rodeo cowboy), and Jewel (singer)? They will all be dancing on national TV.
Co-founder of Apple, Woz is one of thirteen competitors who will have to train for different styles of dance in order to challenge fellow contestants. Woz started Apple with Steve Jobs in 1976. When Woz started Apple, he was employed by HP at the time. They were designing the Apple II around then. Woz will be the second technology leader to have participated on the show. Mark Cuban, founder of Broadcast.com and Dallas Mavericks owner was one of the contestants in the 5th season of the show. Cuban was eliminated from the show on October 23, 2007 when he was partnered with Kym Johnson.
