In reply to C. Annese Armstrong.

I agree. They FINALLY recognized the talent in ONE black female from Disney and she won the mirror ball in 2013, I think. But the list of extremely talented black female celebrities who lost over the years since this show has been on, is long and inexcusable!

Clearly there IS a message for Black female celebrities...you can enjoy the exposure, but don't expect to win!

No matter how many times you vote for your favorite black female celebrities, the show is rigged to string them along until the end for the ratings.

Over the years since the show began, DWTS has featured several talented contestants with extrodinary disabilities yet placed second or even won the mirror ball. I believe that the hard work and talent these celebrities display is inspirational to the viewers and deserving of a trophy.

But where is the inspiration for other Black women and little Black girls watching DWTS?
