To all the mothers in the world, Happy Mother's Day! Nobody appreciates mothers more than I do. I am blessed to have one of the best.
It is semi-final time and we are all working hard on our dances in hopes that we make the finals. Gilles and I have been spending very long hours each day in
the studio and I think it is going really well so far. We have the Salsa and the Waltz this week and I'm super excited about our music for these two
dances.
Everyone was so stunned to see Kim eliminated. She and Derek will definitely be missed. This shocking result demonstrates that no one is safe and it is more
important than ever to vote via phone, text or the web. Gilles and I are counting on you to bring us to the end of Season 8. You have been an integral part
of our adventurous ride.
Gilles and I celebrated the grand opening of the Laguna Niguel Cheryl Burke Dance studio Friday. We met a lot of wonderful new local people and some who came
from far places. We sincerely appreciate the pleasure of your company. The show of support by the local community, especially Laguna Niguel Mayor Robert Ming
and his lovely wife, is overwhelming. What a night to remember!
Tune in Monday night and check out our Waltz and Salsa. Most importantly, please don't forget to vote!
With love,
Cheryl

Glad Len was on board last night...I think he appreciated the fact that youguys didn't try to do too much and stayed traditional as
possible.Not showing too much skin helped too i suppose,lol.....We love you Cheryl and we can't wait for a mind blowing freestyle next week.I'm hoping
it would be the best freestyle ever in the history of the show..
