Pia Toscano, Mark Ballas perform together on 'Dancing With the Stars'
Well, it happened, folks. "American Idol" cast-off Pia Toscano performed on "Dancing With the Stars"' results show on Tuesday, Apr. 26. It's the first time ever a contestant from "Idol's" current season has performed on "DWTS." Could it be because Pia is dating pro Mark Ballas? Why, of course!
Pia performed her stand-out "Idol" song -- "I'll Stand By You" as Mark danced with Karina Smirnoff. Yes, the producers decided to place shots of Pia singing side-by-side with shots of Mark dancing. How romantic!
We need to point out how uncomfortable it was having Mark and Pia stand with their arms around each other awkwardly before a commercial break while Karina stood two feet away from them... all by herself. It was like reliving prom all over again. Thanks for the memories, ABC!
Pia sounded great and proved once again how wrong America was for voting her off "Idol" so early. Did you hear that last note?! Flawless. As to her early exit, Pia says, "Everything happens for a reason. I'm in a good place now."
Of course, being the gracious host that he is, Tom Bergeron didn't come right out and ask Pia if she is dating Mark. Instead, he asked if Mark is a good kisser. Pia's answer? "He's a wonderful person." All together now:
What did you think of Pia's performance, Zappers?

so tired of pia...think she was so over rated. isn't mark like her 5 th boyfriend since she started Idol this year...boring.........................
eww...i kinda liked her till all this dancing with the stars crap...now im just annoyed and bored...it has actually made me dislike mark a little...idk...she was voted of AI get over it...they made it clear she was never in the top three and never was gonna win so stop acting like its a big shock...its been pretty obvious from the beginning of idol who will be the last few and it was never gonna be her...now they are forcing her on everyone...it just bugs me
Got that right all you here about is pia nothing special.
Pia was amazing tonight as always. I hope she gets to be on next season dancing with the stars and gets paired up with Mark. They would make such a cute couple!
She's getting all this attention and her career is going to go nowhere. Guess she's savoring the 15 mins.
Pia is the best & we don't know why she got voted off of American Idol They will regret it. We wish her all the luck in the world.
I am really confused. Yes, Pia is talented but I really think she got voted off because she came across as really snotty on the show. Most of the people watching Idol are GIRLS. She wasn't likeable. Second of all I really think Mark Ballas is a press *****... anywhere he can get the press he is there. He dated another cast off from Idol... Joanna Pacitti. I mean really? I think she was prettier and talented anyway. OH well. WIll be interesting to see where it goes.
