Guillermo - Dancing With the Stars

I share Jimmy Kimmel's views re: Guillermo's performances on "Dancing With the Stars" - especially his caveat re: "...with all the bad stuff goin' on in the world..." and "... and maybe this is just a temporary thing, but I'll take it 'cause I I feel excited, and dare I say, 'uplifted' thanks to this man standing right over there."

For me, watching Guillermo's performances is a lot like watching most high school musical theater productions. There is a lot of "forgiveness" involved.

I also carry a bit of worry because Guillermo's partner (Whitney) is pregnant - and Guillermo is a pretty big fella, who actually required the assistance of two male dancers to complete a portion of the choreography.

Jimmy's monologue from Wednesday night's telecast, which includes a clip of Guillermo and Whitney's Pasodoble, can be found here: Trump’s TV Network FLOPS, Panicking Republicans Spew NONSENSE & Guillermo Dances His Heart Out!

Guillermo confessed on Kimmel that his primary goal in participating was to "lose some weight", so Kimmel brought out a bathroom scale so he could compare "before and after". 5'-2" Guillermo weighed in at 228 lbs. I was surprised that Kimmel didn't seize the opportunity to compare Guillermo's weight to that of Trump, who is a foot taller than Guillermo and "officially" weighs in at 238 lbs. It seems to me that Guillermo could improve his numbers substantially by simply allowing the White House doctors to do the measuring. He might even grow a few inches in the process.
