I wanted to post her interview from Jimmy Kimmel Live! because I wanted you to see what an awesome and funny person she is. Without her on Dancing with the Stars, there is no one left (for me personally) to root for or enjoy.
Marlee Matlin is an inspiration and I aspire to be half as admirable as her. Way to go!
Here is what Marlee Matlin posted on her MySpace after the show:

it’s 11:00 pm on Tuesday – I’m back home
Category: Movies, TV, Celebrities
I don’t have much time to write this because I’ve got to get to bed and get up at 2:45 am to get myself back to CBS for a Good Morning America Interview at 4 am. Then it’s off to catch a plane to NY and Thursday, Fabian and i will be on Regis and Kelly. I’ll be back Thursday night.
With this brief time before I get to bed, I want to just say thank you to all of you out there who sent in words of support and love. I know we’ve heard this so many times, that I was an inspiration to you all. But in all honesty, you ALL inspired me. Now I have a dancer inside of me and Fabian in my heart. At the end of the day, I wanted to show my children that Mom could do whatever she set her mind to in the same way Henry Winkler and my parents told me. Nothing will ever stop me from dreaming and as I have said so many times, silence is the last thing the world will ever hear from me. i hope and pray that it is the same for all of you.
Thank you. Peace and love to you all
And not to worry! I’ll be back!! You can count on it.
Marlee
Hopefully her career will only continue to grow now that we finally know the woman behind the Oscar and so many other accolades!
BTW Jimmy Kimmel Live! has some good guests coming up…Eric Dane tonight, Jean Smart tomorrow, Neil Patrick Harris on Friday and on May 15th his BFF Clay Aiken!!!
Sacreligious. I cannot remember any other time that a contestant has stopped American Idol and asked for a do over because they forgot the lyrics. People are eliminated in the Hollywood and she made it to the top 6! I say You must hate her! Her chances on American Idol show be the same as Eva Peron’s fate at the end of the play. Disgraceful.
Now when it comes to the rest…
How the freak did Jason Castro gets Memories? I wish I could forget that performance, but it went on so long it is etched into my memory.
David Archuleta so messed up, he had the golden opportunity to make a niche for himself as the next Michael Crawford and he went with a female’s song.
Syeshia surprised me because she was enjoyable and so was Carly Smithson. If Carly didn’t have that tattoo sleeve she could have a career on Broadway.
And my boy David Cook was good, but I not sure he was the Music of the Night.
So who should go home? Brooke White. In fact I say do away with the bottom 3 and just eliminate her. Let her be put on the Idol stake for that!
BTW SirAndrew LLoyd Webber was a great and honest mentor!
Shocking news, Star Jones has finally filed for divorce from Al (Gay Al) Reynolds according to ETonline.
"Several years ago I made an error in judgment by inviting the media into the most intimate area of my life.A month ago I filed for divorce.The dissolution of a marriage is a difficult time in anyone's life that requires privacy with one's thoughts.I have committed myself to handling this situation with dignity and grace and look forward to emerging from this period as a stronger and wiser woman."
I wonder if she will claim fraud for the divorce filing, but she probably go with the boring irreconcilable differences. This will probably be uglier than her divorce form The View!
