Antonio Sabato Jr Wins Celebrity Circus

Posted by REALITY REHASH on July 16, 2008 under Celebrity Circus, NBC | Read the First Comment


Celebrity Circus has had a rather interesting run as its had both good and bad weeds. I must say it was at least somewhat entertaining but could never be as good as Dancing With The Stars. Tonight the winner will be revealed between Stacey, Wee Man and Antonio who will take home a prize which we never really were told what. Although the reveal was rather simple all the celebrities were back to perform one last time.

Blu, who was out first, sang her famous song instead of doing the stunts which she really sucked out. Good for her I guess but apparently she didn’t care enough to even try. Janet left the show rather early and I almost forgot she was even on it. Tonight she performed with Vladimir on the swinging thing. It was pretty good as she jumped into the air only to be caught mid fall. I don’t remember if she did this during the show but if not she should have as she did it really well!

Christopher Knight then came onto the set and let everyone know how he enjoyed the experience. He wasn’t able to do any stunts or perform though as his arm is still healing after breaking twice in only a short few weeks. He was good while he was on and he went out in a very sad way. Last up of those who went home pre-finale was Rachel Hunter. She performed the first act she ever did and did it rather well. I must say I was a fan of Rachel throughout the show and although she may not have been the most athletic she was the most fun to watch!

For their final performances ever in the Circus the three finalists performed together. Wee Man did his balancing act with Vladimir. Stacey did her flying hula hoop act while Antonio did a flaying st rapes act. It was nice to see them all working together to perform and I must say they all did well. Following the act the three was narrowed down to two with Wee Man being the one to take the fall. This left either Stacey Dash or Antonio Sabato Jr as the winner but we had to wait to see. Wee Man let everyone know he was there to have fun and he sure did just that.

The entire night and competition culminated here as it was time to crown the winner of Celebrity Circus. Both Stacey and Antonio did a great job throughout the season but Stacey seemed to be a step above throughout her entire run. Although Stacey had the better performances throughout Antonio’s perfect 10 last week from the judges was hard to beat and he was crowned the winner of the Celebrity Circus. I’m not sure if there will be another one but if there is you’ll know I’ll be watching and covering it right here at Reality Rehash!

So what do you think of Antonio winning? Leave a comment and let us know!

The Final Three Perform On Celebrity Circus

Posted by REALITY REHASH on July 9, 2008 under Celebrity Circus, NBC | Be the First to Comment

After 12 weeks and 37 injuries its time for the three final performances on Celebrity Circus. Since last week four competed but it was time to drop down to three tonight and of course we would have to wait until the end to find out. Stacey obviously was the first to be told she’s through. We then learned that the judges would be choosing their performances for tonight so it should be interesting to see.

Before Stacey performed she let us know she’s upset about getting bad scores last week. The judges chose for her to do the bungees again and she wanted it to be better then before. Stacey’s act was once again a great one and she dazzled with her flips. This time she included the trapeze into her act which was said to make it harder then before. She nailed her final act her move to grab the trapeze with her feet the first time but the second not so much. Otherwise she had a good performance but her small fumble hurt her. The judges seemed to love her act even though she stumbled in the air. With three 8s Stacey didn’t have a great score but good enough for her at least!

Next we learned who the second person safe would be and that is Wee Man. Although he had a hard time the week before, last week saved him. The judges chose to give him the flying straps this week since he did well with the balancing act. Although he got a 7.7 last time on them he wanted to do better. With skateboard in to Wee Man took to the straps and flew around the circus ring with his fellow “bros”. They did a few handstands and other movements in the air which got mixed reviews from the judges. They loved his journey in the show and feel he could win simply because of that and his performance as well. Once his scores were in Week Man got three 8s, similar to Stacey making it a tough race between the two.

It was then time to reveal who would make the finals and who would go home. In the end Rachel was sent him (sadly) while Antonio made it into the finals. Rachel took some time to say her final words and she said she wouldn’t have changed a thing. She loved the acts she performed although they may have been silly. That crowns the final three and one of them will take home the win.

Antonio’s final act was the flying silk, his first act that he did. The first time he was told to connect with his partner better so that’s what he wanted to do this time. Although he didn’t do many moves in the beginning his act did turn out well and he may just have a chance to win. The judges felt he put all their suggestions together for the act and feel this was his best performance yet. The one British judge went kind of psycho over his performance, still kind of odd, but hey whatever. It was a good performance, like the other two, and all three have a good chance at winning. With three 10s Antonio goes into the finals with the best score of the night but he needs the votes as well to win.

So who will take home the win of Celebrity Circus? Wee Man, Stacey or Antonio? Leave a comment and let us know what you think!

Another Broken Arm Removes One Celeb From the Circus

Posted by REALITY REHASH on July 2, 2008 under Celebrity Circus, NBC | Be the First to Comment

After last weeks great performances I wasn’t sure what Celebrity Circus would bring, but wow did they sure bring some great acts! Although the show was full of great performances, it starts off with a sad note. During his practice Chris took a large fall and re broke his arm. Because of this the doctor said he could no longer compete in the circus and therefore he removed himself from the show. Because of this all the celebrities move on to the last round before the finals. Saving someone who was meant to go home this week.

First up was Wee Man. Last week the judges finally gave him praise and I wasn’t sure if he could hold up to their standards but he really did. His act was the hand balancing act and he performed it with his “bro” Vlad. It was a great performance with Wee Man keeping up with the seasoned Vlad and it was hard to tell that they had limited practice time. He even lifted Vlad up in the end, earning him a standing ovation and the shows first 10 from each of the three judges.

The shows Golden Girl was up next and Stacey’s act was amazing as well. This week she wanted to take the stress out of the circus and not focus so much on winning. It seems this was her downfall as although her performance was amazing, the judges were somewhat harsh. Stacey’s act was the rocking cradle and it took a ton of skill to perform it. She worked with a partner who mostly swung on the cradle as she flipped and spun as he caught her mid air. It was a very risky stunt and she handled it well. Of course there were a few flubs but still it was great. The judges all gave her an 8 and said she didn’t bring her “diva” style. Stacey is growing on me more yet the judges and I seem to always have a differing view of her.

Next up was Antonio who after a lackluster week last week needed something big. It turns out his original act was trapeze and in the end it didn’t work out. Because of that he ended up changing to the wheel of death. Although he was scared to do the act, Antonio pulled through and had an ok performance when it counted. The first three turns of the wheel had Antonio doing the same grasping/upside down move with really no variety. In the end he did a handstand at the top of the wheel and that’s about it. If I was a betting man I’d say he’ll be heading home next week after that but really who knows. Thankfully the judges agreed with me and gave Antonio two 7s and an 8.

Rachel was the last to go this week and her act was being billed once again as one of the most dangerous acts the show has seen yet. Her pre-performance package showed her hyping up to battle the bull but in the end we were all fooled as the bull ended up being a dog! It was VERY entertaining and one of the most fun acts to watch ever on the show. It may not have been dangerous or risky but it will be one of the most memorable acts from the show. The judges seemed to be speechless after they saw her act but seemed to love it. Rachel said she knew it was a risk but wanted to do it to get the full circus experience. The judges seemed to go against their sheer joy of the act by giving her two 6s and a 7. Hopefully the votes are there to save Rachel since her act was good even if it wasn’t risky!

An Unknown Kicked Out Of The Celebrity Circus

Posted by REALITY REHASH on June 26, 2008 under Celebrity Circus, NBC | Be the First to Comment

Celebrity Circus returns with another death defying episode. They claim the most dangerous act ever performed on the show will be on tap for the latest run, but will it impress? Things start off right away with the reveal that Stacey, Christopher and Rachel (yay) are safe and not going home. It’s down to Wee Man, Antonio and Janet but Wee Man is somehow safe, confusing the hell out of me! He sucked last week and really deserved to go home.

Chris is first and after last weeks fire act, he realized that he has to do some acrobatics to get on the judges good side. His act for this week was the bungee, something hard for him to do with a broken arm. Since Stacey already did the bungee, of course the judges will base his performance off of their golden child. Although he looked somewhat uncomfortable on the bungee, Chris did a good job as he spun his way through the performance. This time he included a trapeze bar in the mix which did add an interesting touch but the judges were mixed. Of course they compared him to Stacey, the British guy did, but the other two loved him and that’s all the matters! Two 9s and a 6, which was great, but still the stupid British guy screwed him over!

Stacey is up next and I’m sure the judges will all love her. Her stunt is Blu’s downfall and that is the Spanish Web. In her practice package Stacey freaks out, a bit divaish? Blu did the same and she left, maybe the same will happen for Stacey. For once I’m impressed and feel she finally did a great performance. But for some reason the judges disagree? Um what’s going on. For some reason the judges have a false vision of Stacey and I’m not sure why. She spun well and it was very entertaining but of course the British guy loved her. Why am I not surprised? Two 7s and a 10 give Stacey the same score as Chris (and by the way how in the world is she 41!?!?!?)

Next up is the lackluster Week Man. I have a feeling he got through on his fame and fans calling in since he didn’t deserve to stay. The Flying Strap is his act and this time he has to act a bit as a story has been added for once. Although then hanging onto the straps Wee Man didn’t do too much. Of course he flipped a few times and flipped again, but that’s about it. I wasn’t impressed but the judges thought he did much better compared to last week. They liked the theatrical part of the show and that’s enough to give him a thumbs up. His score ends up being a 7 and two 8s, much better then the 4s he got last week!

Rachel is up next and she’s performing the most dangerous act of the show! I hope she does well since she’s afraid of heights and that’s the whole part of her performance. She’s doing the high wire that includes a trick that in the past killed someone, the pyramid. She’s walking, dancing and pyramiding on the the high wire and things were sure interesting. To make sure things stay safe, Rachel is was a safety wire and I don’t blame her. Although she’s safe, the others on the pyramid with her aren’t. They silence the audience and begin, tethered together are Rachel and two helpers. She’s balancing on a pole between the two in a very tense moment. Amazingly all three make it across safe. Although it wasn’t too thrilling it was exciting and risky! The judges thought she did a great job considering she was afraid of heights and gave her two 7s and an 8.

It was then time to reveal if Antonio or Janet would leave. Janet was the one selected to leave, probably because knows who the hell she is! She thanks the trainers and it was then up to Antonio to perform. His act is the Chinese pole, which is two poles next two each other that you can leap from and grab onto. Antonio’s act was pretty good once again but the judges seemed somewhat bored. They didn’t think he controlled himself well on the pole and lacked theatrics. Although those were mentioned they say Antonio was the only one who could have done the Chinese poles so it was a rather unbalanced judging for him. The votes were then made giving Antonia Sabato Jr a 7, 8 and 9.

With all the performances done only five remain and its a tie for the bottom as wee Man and Rachel share the bottom spot. Next week promises death defying acts and thrilling performances. All of them tonight were great so I’m sure it won’t disappoint!
