I’ve not seen this picture before, although it’s obviously from a year or two ago (it’s the hair that gives it away ). Splash News has one of the several dozen articles about Derek moving to London and moving in with Cheryl while he looks for his own place. Do I think this is true? I have no freakin’ clue. But I’ve decided that I might start printing some of the rubbish in hopes that maybe SOMEONE would decide to clue us in to what Derek has planned. Dude, you can tell us your plans with out mentioning the dreaded “C” word (:::cough:::Cheryl:::cough:::).

Just a little picture, but he’s “Sexy” in a “Sexy versus Skanky” article – of course. This is from the August edition – I found it from a tweet that originated from @DWTS_Gossip, I believe. Of course, the British tabloids are still talking about him, but nothing of note.

Anyone who’s followed BHB, knows the Brits and that they’ve been talking about a “secret project” for some time now. Well, Emily posted it earlier and it’s VERY good – loved it. See below. If you want to follow the Brits on twitter to find out what they’re up to now, Emily is @emilygraceUK, Sam (I’m cheating on Derek with him ) is @Sam_Marder_BHB and Harry is @HarrySullivanBHB – for new fans, Harry’s the really tall one.

Thanks to CrazyCurlzGirl, I realized that not only had I not watched this video in FOREVER, but I doubt very much it’s posted anywhere on this site! Pro dance to Dolly Parton from 2007.

1AV8TRIX has done it again!!

I have no idea if he’s visiting her or what he’s doing, but we have confirmation that he’s still alive…and possibly hanging out with Giovanni from deVIence??? Does that look like him with Derek, or is that just my imagination working over time because I would SO love it if Derek were recording more stuff with them?? LOVED his voice on the last deVIence song. Loved it.

Grow, hair, GROW!!!

Anyway, from the Daily Mirror:

This is from near the end of DWTS – just a cute little call out to GoTV.

No clue how accurate this article is, but since it’s pretty nice and supposedly quotes Mark, I thought I would share bits of it.  From EntertainmentWise:

According to heat, Mark reveals that Derek is a great friend who can be relied upon in times of personal crisis.

Mark said: “He’s helping Cheryl through a rough patch – he’s very caring like that. Derek is really compassionate. He introduced me to my girlfriend.

“He’s like that when someone has a tough time. I’d had a brutal break-up a while back, and that got me through it. When things have been hard, he’s supported me in an amazing way.

“Like when my uncle committed suicide, it was very hard, but Derek was there for me. That’s what he does for people he cares about.”

That’s all very nice, but I think Derek is going above and beyond here – but Mark knows better than to put any other label on it. He knows how Derek is about relationships. Why he’s talking (if he did) is a mystery, however.

Now HERE is a publication that most likely legitimately quotes Derek. From Variety:

Creating grace, under pressure

Choreographers shine despite the terror of live TV

Regardless of whoever waltzes off with the choreography Emmy, it’ll be a tribute to grace under pressure. All nine nominated routines created beauty despite the constraints of time, diverse styles and live performance — with America sitting in judgment.

The competition shows allot two days tops for staging and rehearsal, so Derek Hough of “Dancing With the Stars” immediately sizes up each new celeb partner.

“You could be handed an athlete, a fit guy or gal, and you find they can’t walk a straight line.” Likewise on “So You Think You Can Dance,” Mia Michaels assesses “how open they are, how technical they are. You don’t have the time to break down their walls.”

Tricks are needed to bring out the dancer within. Hough asked stiff supermodel Joanna Krupa what she’d do in a dance club, and he noticed “a little wiggling of the hips she was comfortable with, that brought everything alive. So I put it into literally every routine,” including their nominated “futuristic Paso Doble.”

“It’s live TV, man,” shrugs Hough. “You just have to do it. You come off stage and say, ‘I can’t believe we pulled that off.’”

Still has some hair, but not enough. Wanna yell at me about obsessing over your too short hair, Derek? I would welcome the attention at this point.
