A safe haven for the imagination

This week on “Dancing With The Stars” Season 18, it was “The Most Memorable Year of Your Life” Night, and “Good Morning America” star Robin Roberts was a guest judge! The night was full of surprises, as no one was eliminated during the evening’s dances. Instead, Billy Dee Williams gracefully bowed out of the competition because of chronic back pain making him unable to dance any longer. Still, here are the scores from the evening’s dancers!

The top score for the evening could be a 40, so it looks a little different than the normal score of Top 30. Here’s what the stars and their dancing partners for the week got!

Meryl Davis and Maksim Chmerkovskiy: 39/40

James Maslow and Peta Murgatroyd: 36/40

Danica McKellar and Valentin Chmerkovskiy: 36/40

Amy Purdy and Derek Hough: 36/40

Charlie White and Sharna Burgess: 36/40

Cody Simpson and Witney Carson: 35/40

Candace Cameron Bure and Mark Ballas: 32/40

Nene Leaks and Tony Dovolani: 31/40

Drew Carey and Cheryl Burke: 30/40

It was a great night of dancing and everyone did wonderfully! Next week on DWTS is the SWITCH UP! We can’t wait to see how it turns out!

You all know and love the Disney classic movie “Aladdin” from when you were younger. The man who did the voice for Jafar, Jonathan Freeman, is all set to actually play the character Jafar in the new musical “Aladdin” on Broadway! Here is a description of the play, which started on March 20th (the first day of Spring!):

“Aladdin, adapted from the Disney film and centuries-old folktales including ‘One Thousand and One Nights,’ is brought to fresh theatrical life in this bold new musical. Aladdin’s journey sweeps audiences into an exotic world of daring adventure, classic comedy and timeless romance. This new production features a full score, including the five cherished songs from the Academy Award-winning soundtrack and more written especially for the stage.”

We love a good super-hero movie. What we love even more is a good mutant movie! We were so excited last year when we heard about a new addition to the X-men franchise, “X-Men: Days of Future Past.” The first official trailer for the upcoming film was released back in October of last year, but the second official trailer was just released today! We were super psyched to see all our favorite mutant characters as their younger selves, and we knew you would be too- so we had to share immediately! Watch BOTH trailers below and tell us which your favorite is!

First official “X-Men: Days of Future Past” trailer!

Second official “X-Men: Days of Future Past” trailer!

Along with the second trailer, a brand new movie poster was released (above). We love the new trailer and the new poster, too! We can’t wait until this summer, when the movie hits theaters on May 23rd!

Which trailer do you like better, the first or the second? What do you think of the new movie poster for “X-Men: Days of Future Past”?
