J-Lo is the new Debbie Allen. Just like Allen before her, J-Lo is ushering young dance hopefuls into the television limelight. Unlike Debbie Allen, who played Ms. Grant on Fame, J-Lo will not be giving the following speech on MTV's Dancelife: "You want fame? Well, fame costs, and right here, is where you start paying - in sweat." Lopez, who started out as a fly girl on In Livin' Color and wound up a one-woman corporation, is the producer of MTV's latest reality series - Dancelife, premiering on January 15th. The series follows the story of six dancers looking to make it big in the rough and tumble world of professional dance. You can read the stars' bios online, and an extended preview video has cropped up on YouTube. The series looks like it falls on the Laguna Beach-end of the reality show spectrum - more soap opera than competition. At least, the show's stars have more talent than your average Laguna Beach high schooler or Twentyfourseven party promoter. Now, if only I could "remember, remember, remember their names."

J.Lo is a bonified superstar. I can't wait to see her on LCD TV doing the MTV dance. I throughly enjoyed her on In Living Color and she should be able to manage anything after that.

HELLO, DID ANYONE HAPPEN TO SEE THE SHOW LAST NIGHT? I MIGHT HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN INTERESTING IF THAT SNOOTY BITCH JLO WASN'T SHOWN MAKING ALL THOSE SNOTTY COMMENTS AND SHOWING HOW MUCH OF A DIVA SHE STILL THINKS SHE IS. FORTGET IT GIRL YOUR DOWN YOU MIGHT AS WELL START HANGING OUT WITH PARIS NEXT. I FEEL BAD FOR ALL THOSE PEOPLE WHO ARE ACTUALLY TREMENDOUS DANCERS. THE SHOWS BIGGEST MISTAKE IS HAVING JLO ON IT. SOMEONE NEEDS TO LET HER KNOW SHE IS ALL DONE STICK TO YOUR LATINA MUSIC AND GIVE ALITTLE BACK TO THE COMMUNUITY AND STOP BEING SO GREEDY AND FEELING THE NEED TO SHOW OFF HOW SNOTTY AND CONTROLLING SHE CAN BE.

uhm. yeahh. so jennifer lopez definitely isn't a diva. if anything she's an inspiration for the people who are dancing for her. she came from nothing and worked her way up. she said good things about the dancers, i don't kno what "carol" is talking about. so anywayss.. i just had to say that. cool.

Looking for the name of the song that plays in the first episode as the opening song...not Young Love, but the guitar beat when they start showing the cast.......anyone anyone?

I believe the guitar beat is from the beginning of another Young Love song. The Young Love CD drops on the 30th, next Tuesday...
