VIDEOS: "Dancing With The Stars" KICKS OFF With Sherri Shepherd, Jaleel White, Gladys Knight & More!

Mar 20 | by Natasha

Last night (Monday) was "Dancing With The Stars" premiere night!  And in case you missed it, we've got video of the Cha Chas & Foxtrots of the YBF contestants.

 

Check out Sherri Shepherd, Jaleel White, Gladys Knight and more twerking it for the Mirror Ball trophy inside...

 

Sherri Shepherd & her partner Valentin (Val) Chmerkovskiy hit the floor to perform the Foxtrot. 

Jaleel White is indeed no longer Urkel as he was Mr. Smooth with partner Kym Johnson for their Cha-Cha.

Legendary Gladys Knight worked it out with her partner Tristan MacManus for their Cha-Cha.

Actor/rapper Roshon Fegan hit the floor with partner Chelsie Hightower for their Cha-Cha.

And finally, Green Bay Packers Superbowl champ Donald Driver did the Cha-Cha with his partner Peta Murgatroyd.  How cute are his kids!

Who are you voting for?

i'm so happy for sherri, she's wanted this for so long! Go Gladys, even if the judges wanted to harshly critique her they couldn't because that crowd would have eaten them alive.

This is the best DWTS ever!

This is the best DWTS ever! I hope that they see that you do not need sideshows like Bristol Palin to keep people watching. Their ratings will go through the roof this time because it's so enjoyable! Everyone brought it and Ms Gladys had me standing and clapping! Ridiculously good! Jaleel, Sherri and Roshon amazing and ughhh everyone was good. It will be a highly competitive season

When you have heard Gladys

When you have heard Gladys Knight's voice, her music, and you know how it moves you, it is a beautiful experience, next, to watch her in this dance recital. It shows off the discipline that it must require to master the craft of stage movement as it pertains to musical entertainment. She looks quite stunning in her red sparkle costume.

Interesting how Roshon Fegan

Interesting how Roshon Fegan related to a different approach to dance. He is an obviously talented dancer, based on his Michael Jackson moves and such; however, when it comes to, say, something from the '60s like the Cha-Cha it is foreign to him. He was accommodated sweetly in this production.

Wow... that Donald Driver

Wow... that Donald Driver just comes across like one of the original hot chocolates almost a hundred years ago. No one can deny him that. Though he is an athlete he also has the body of a dancer. Effortlessly, he charms; therefore, like the judges say, he has to not try so hard for the "impact" because less is more. He doesn't even have to try.

Jaleel is a natural, in the

Jaleel is a natural, in the sense that he's in tune with his body. Of course as Steve Urkel he is always remembered, but better still, as Stefan Ur Kelle, he's already shown us his inner smooth. Dancing this jig gives him an opening to deliver his inner smooth. He's got the body and radiance of a dancer.

I can tell that Sherri is a bit shy when it comes to dancing; however, being the showman that she is, she pulled it off. She did fine. She demonstrated the discipline it takes to be a contestant on DWTS.

I think Ms Gladys & Jaleel

I think Ms Gladys & Jaleel has inspired me to watch this show again. I really cant with Brooke this season though, she is so boring, I just wince after watching all her after dance interactions.

I must agree. I guess this

I must agree. I guess this year it's because there is actually really larger than life stars in her presence. Maybe she feels like she is miniscule?
