The Biggest Loser, NBC's weight-loss reality show, is a hit. So is FOX's dance show, So You Think You Can Dance? Now Oxygen has a show that seems to combine them both. Contestants compete in both dance and weight-loss challenges each week on the show Dance Your A** Off. The winner will take home $100,000! I just watched a sneak peek on the Oxygen website: Trice shows her new, professional dance partner what she can do. The 23-year-old breaks out into the splits and busts moves I've only seen in music videos! Did I mention that she weighs 274 pounds? She's impressive! I can't wait to see more. Will you tune in? According to Oxygen: "Twelve finalists, nearly 3,000 lbs, one goal -- to go from an eating machine to a dancing machine in Oxygen's new dance/weight loss competition series Dance Your A** Off, hosted by TONY Award-winning actress Marissa Jaret Winokur. Bringing dance and diet together, Dance Your A** Off features talented, full-figured contestants who will have to lose to win. Each contestant is paired with a professional dance partner who will train him or her for weekly stage performances -- ranging from Hip Hop, to Ballroom and even Pole Dancing! Then they shake and rattle their rolls in front of a live studio audience and a panel of expert judges. The judges score the routines, and then the contestants weigh in to reveal their weekly weight loss. The dance score and the weight loss are combined for an overall score, which determines who is sent home each week." The show airs every Monday at 10 p.m. EST/9 p.m. CST.
