Jerry Springer Shines On Dancing with the Stars
Jerry Springer, host of a bawdy talk show, gains popularity on ABCs Dancing with the Stars with partner Kym Johnson. He dances to learn the waltz for his daughter's wedding and has avoided elimination two weeks running. He says he is just being himself on TV and acknowledges modest dancing skill. Viewers reward him despite judges ranking his tango near the bottom. Half of the vote total comes from the public.
