Fatone: "Dancing" Is Killing Me!

Posted Apr 23rd 2007 11:22AM by TMZ Staff

The Samba is kicking Joey Fatone's ass ... and other parts.

TMZ spotted "Dancing with the Stars" resident former pop star outside of Area on Saturday night, getting groped by Laila Ali's handsome dance instructor, Maksim Chmerkovskiy (would you like to buy a vowel?), and talking about the exhaustive training for this week's episode.

Fatone will doing the fast-paced dance to the slow beat of Erasure's "A Little Respect," and it looks and sounds like Joey is saying that the training is taking a toll on his groin. Ouch!

18. Stormy, where did you get the idea that contestants are not supposed to have dance experience? What about Drew Lachey(formerly with 98 Degrees) who recently won? Both he and Joey Fatone are former boy band members who danced as part of their act.

21. #2, LMAO... You're right about that "FAT-ONE." He looks like he's a pregnant man, and can't dance for S**t!! He should stick to singing (only in the studio, better heard than seen, kwim??)

23. hey #15.....ballroom dancing is totally different than the dancing he used to do plus he is not the only celebrity on this show with expierence this season or in past seasons, the point is he is kicking butt and im not the only one enjoying the show because of him its about time someone has fun with this and quits taking it so seriously

24. Who ever wins, hey, its a great thing, but instead of the winning dancer having a "lap around the track", so to speak, with a final dance, how about getting those two old judges, who remind me of the two grouchy old guys from Sesame Street, and let them "practice what they preach" with a finale dance and also Carrie Anne too! Now, THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT!!!

29. i think maks will win because he is an excellent dancer . this is the first year i have watched this show and i like maks dancing better then all of the other ones. he is the star of the show. he is very humble also. he is a natural dancer and i will vote a million times for him. he makes the show what it is . if it wasnt for him i wouldnt watch it. so vote for the best dancer maks on the show. let the best man win. notice i only say him he is the only one i watch. last night i had a dream about you.......................................................................................
