theyhad a quick blurb on ABC news this morning about how Sarah has said that she would like to dance on the "Dancing with the Stars" show that just ended the other day here in the states.
She has said that she has always been interested in dancing and would love to learn the Tango. they did not show her saying this, they just showed her in a very ugly top with a huge bow tied off to the side, around her neck. The news guy just reported on her.
If she does show up on this show, I now know she has lost any and all dignity that she had left.

Sesa, I also read something about that, but I hope she only said so, but never really will take part in a show like this. I know she loves dancing and there have been many pics in the past showing her doing so, but as I know these shows from here in Germany, I really hope she won't do it..

Click here for an article from CNN about it.

I don't get a good feeling about this. I hope she doesn't go overboard and make herself look ridiculous.

I hope this isn't true, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is. The word stupid comes to mind. What possible benefit could something like this have, especially for her children and ex-husband.

I think we should wait and see. She's always been very careful with interviews before, and I can't imagine her saying anything inappropriate now.

I guess my point was: why do it at all. Is she just publicity hungry?

Fair point.

Unless she's to receive a large sum and is going to give the money to charity, she would be wiser to keep quiet.

Better to keep one's mouth shut and be thought a fool.....etc!

She is getting older and is probably not asked to do as many 'glam' events. IMO, she is doing this to try to return to the celebrity status she had years ago, when she moved to the US. She seems to be hooked on getting publicity for herself, without taking her daughters feelings into consideration.

i dont think sarah will reveal too much..i think shes just trying to atract an audience if you get what i mean. I certainly hope she doesnt reveal too much because it will give the royals something else to complain about her.

It's probably been covered before. And, if not, she's not a woman one could admire in the position she is in, in regards to her relationship to the BRF, specifically regarding her two young daughters.

I think it's sad that people are so vindictive and make judgements about the Duchess before she has even participated in the interview.
I think some of the comments about her contributions to her charities could even be libelous...
I have enormous faith in the Duchess and I am proud of her amazing contributions to her charities as I am sure most charities are grateful for her valuable contributions.

By the way, was her PR contract with Weight Watchers renewed or not? That might explain a few things.

If Sarah wants to make a fool of herself, again, by baring her soul on channel 4, why would her daughters want to stop her, after all, they are used to being embarrassed by her.

Try as I might, I have been unable to find any comments that are vindictive or libelous regarding her use of the label 'charity' to sell herself or her little knick knacks.

This was a fair comment
"Also note that we don't even know what that portion of her profit is - it could be 0.001 percent of her profit and technically she would be right."
Most companies have, by law in the UK, to tell you what percentage, if any, of their profit is going to charity, not to do so, is not only a good marketing ploy but, is also seen as very deceitful!

I agree with that, Roslyn, let us just wait and see...

Here are some older but nice pics that have not been posted before, they were taken two months ago at the end of September. It has been the Weight Watchers Inspiring Stories Luncheon in New York City - isopix:

While I agree that people should wait to see the content of the interview without rushing to judgement, I don't see any evidence of libellous comments where her charities are concerned. However, please feel free to contact me by private message to discuss it.
