'Dancing With the Stars' alum Kelly Osbourne picks Season 11 winner
Season 9 "Dancing With the Stars" contestant Kelly Osbourne appears on Ellen DeGeneres' program on Nov. 12, and spills on who she thinks will take home the title in two weeks.
"You never know with that show," says Osbourne. "It's crazy you don't always see what the people see at home and why they vote. You never really understand, but I definitely think that Jennifer Grey is going to be in the finals. As for the winner, I really feel like Bristol Palin is going to give everyone a run for his or her money...I have to say this you have to separate the person from the family. She's out there and she's trying."
Sounds like she's Team Bristol, as pretty much nothing but divine intervention is keeping Grey out of the finals.
But Osbourne wasn't that enamored with Palin when she judged her performance on the 200th episode. Though she had nothing but praise during the comments, she was one of only two celebrity panelists to not give out a perfect 10.
While on the show, Osbourne also gets DeGeneres to open up about rumors that her wife, Portia de Rossi, wants to be a part of "DWTS" Season 12 -- and whether she might be partnered with another woman.
"I think it's weird," DeGeneres says of the Israeli version of "DWTS," which currently features a same-sex pairing. "It's not a romantic thing. It's an art form, and in dancing it doesn't matter. We are just so used to seeing a men and woman dancing together. I think that's great that they're going to do that. I don't know if [Portia] is going to do it or not. She won't tell me. We'll find out."
We suppose we will -- though not for a while. Casting hasn't even started for the next season of "DWTS."

I will probably not watch again after seeing terrific dancers go home while a mediocre dancer stays on due to her mother's rabid base "getting out the vote". If the show can't have a system that promotes the best dancers each week, it becomes a bore to watch. It's ludicrous to think that someone of Bristol's low level of talent could ultimately win over Jennifer Grey.
True. I want to watch the best dancers each week. It isn't about talent at all. It's just about popularity, or in this case, the popularity of mommy. What kind of win is that?
If they put Portia with a women, I'm done. I don't care if she's gay, I want to see the best dancing possible. Let's not make this what it's not. It's not a platform for gay rights. It would only be for the ratings if they did that. Let's keep it about the dancing!
Icannotbelievekylemassey is still on dats tslk about a no talent.
And how do you all think the athletes have done so well over the years? Their fan bases of course. So, why does everyone put down Bristol for having a fan base? Everyone can have a fan base but her, I suppose, according to all you politically biased people!
I have always thought we should vote for the person who should go home. It is too easy for one of the better dancers to not get votes because everyone thinks someone else needs votes to stay. This biased voting for Bristol really shows how RABID fans can ruin the quality and fairness of the show. It makes the judging irrelevant.
Hey mel - what do you think is going to happen on the show if they put a gay person dancing with a same sex partner??? Do you honestly think they're going to kiss? (Horrors!!!) Or worse, turn the other person gay???? (Double horrors!!!) Come on, it's still going to be about the dancing!! Two women can dance together just as good as a man and a woman!!....maybe even better!!
The Producers of DWTS may be rating crazy, but if they keep up this rock stuff which has nothing to do with Ballroom (the last bastien of ladies and gentlemen), they better wake up. They will loose more than they gain. Ballroom devotees made this show a success and to keep it that way, please keep the Gay thing and Rock thing OUT!
Let's dance - it is a long tradition.
Thank you.
will not watch show anymore. It stinks when the better dancers get tossed of for someone whose mother has political clout,and I am a republican. Why do they bother to have judges?
The show has become a huge disappointment. The producers are losing the fan base they worked hard to achieve,by bringing politics into the show.I'm not sure I'd watch next year. This should be a time we can sit home,relaxed and be entertained. Rather than being frustrated. watching,therefore the show will lose viewership.
