Brandy did well last night as expected, but I wonder how far she can go? I don't think she'll have the fanbase that some of the others will have. If she continues to deliver like she did last night (and gets the votes), she could do pretty well. She was graceful, elegant, confident, and so likable. :) Last season, I didn't expect Nicole to go as far as she did, mostly because of the fanbase issue, but she ended up winning so anything could happen.

people forget brandy has sold over 10 million records. Its not as if she is some random chick with no audience. f she contiues to dance and wow the judges, she will go very far and possibly win.

Brandy did a really good job. She should do very well in this competition. She was so excited it was funny. It was as tho she was playing Simon Says' or something. lol

But Brandy isn't as good as Nicole. Let's not get it twisted. She looked like a professional out there. Not that Brandy doesn't have dancing experience also. Then again, so does Jennifer Grey, who I also think will do very well in this competition, but she was so 23 years ago. Do the youngsters even remember her beyond Dirty Dancing?

Toni Braxton has sold millions of records and was actually a good dancer on there, but the writing was already on the wall at that point. I think it's where you are 'now' that matters. Not what you did years ago.

Toni did OK on DWTS but she wasnt that good and was stiff. She didnt deserve to win or go much further than she did. Maybe a extra week or 2.

I didn't say Toni deserved to win or go far but considering things, she did do well to get as far as she did.
Mya was the best dancer the season she was on but I knew she wasn't going to beat Donny Osmond even though she was miles better than him or anyone else that season. She just didn't have the fanbase to put her over the top.

If Mya with her limited base can get 2nd place, then Brandy should be able to go pretty far.
I think Rick Foxx and the chick from Dirty Dancing are favorites right now, not based on their dancing but just based on minstream appeal.
If Brandy is able to consistantly improve and wow the audience like she did this week, she has a great shot. She is actually one of the strongest dancers on the show.

^But she ain't gonna win and that's my point. Doesn't matter if she's top 3 or not or get far.

I dont think anyone expects her to win so I really don't understad your point. if anything I hope she gains some press and some media interest so that she can release an album and a single.

^Using this show as a platform to springboard her career again is not going to work. Either she is going to release some amazing songs and ppl respond to that or ppl are just not interested. I'm not even sure her demographic watches DWTS.
She already has her family show that did well on VH1. She could've just used that for album promo. I'm still not sure why she's doing DWTS except for personal reasons.

Brandy is a competitor. She said so herself. I'm sure she's not going on DWTS to finish short of winning that mirror ball trophy. She's there to win it. She already has a great body so it can't just be to get into shape.

She said herself she wants to gain confidence. This show is great for her to do that and reintroduce her to the mainstream audience she once had.

The demo that watches the show are older people, not her base. Sure she can use her twitter followers etc to vote for her but the favorites I see as Jennifer Grey.

I think the media made Jennifer Grey a favorite. Brandy atleast has an outside chance. She just has to bring it all the time, and connect with the audience. She's one of the top ones there. Nicole won and so did Shaun Johnson, that may not necessarily be their demograph either.

Yea Nicole winning says a lot about just being a good dancer but that isnt her demo at all.

I really hope that Brandy makes it to the Final 3. I have been splitting my votes between her and Kyle. I will be so happy if they both make it- they deserve to as far as I'm concerned. That Tango was indeed true perfection. I so love her and Maks together. Great chemistry. Oh and I loved that Monica came out to show support.

It's absolutely disgusting that Bristol first of all made it as far as she did but then to best Brandy? Ugh! Damnit, first Mel B, than Mya and now Brandy. *smdh* I'm not gonna say that I am not gonna watch next week because Kyle/Lacey were my other favorite couple but I am really annoyed at this decision. Brandy has been so great and has shown true improvement every week. I have nothing against Bristol but come on now..what a crock! On a positive note, Brandy may still be performing next week. Bruno did ask her if she and Maks would do their freestyle so... Gosh...this sucks.
