Animal Advocate cheated by ABC’s Dancing with the Stars?
Posted By Timi on April 5, 2010
Before any of my loyal subscribers wonder if I’ve lost my integrity 
let me justify this post. You all know that I spend all my off-duty time (and then some) dedicated to animal rescue and canine welfare so it shouldn’t be that surprising that I would be thoughtful enough to show some support for another Animal Advocate. Which is what I wanted to do tonight. With an increasing amount of toxic (reality) TV programming, I enjoy leaving the channel tuned to some family friendly shows. Tonight as I sat working on my laptop, with 5 rescues surrounding me on the couch, ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars” was on in the background. When I noticed Pamela Anderson was up next, I decided to vote. As an actress, living in LA and having a close friend who starred with Anderson on the long-running, syndicated VIP series, I’ve had opportunity to meet Pamela - and she’s a lovely person. More impressive to me though, is Pam’s contributions in the fight against animal cruelty so - I wanted to show her my support and vote. Well much to my surprise, ABC’s phone system rejected me. The recording told me, time and time again, that I reached my “maximum” number of votes…but I hadn’t even voted yet! In fact, I never voted for any one during any season of “DWTS” so - what’s up with that? Makes you wonder if that is the reason Anderson ended up in the bottom two last week. If I was blocked from casting my votes, how many others were? Oh well Pam. Like they say, “it’s a dog eat dog world”. Whatever THAT means…
FYI: my home provider is Vonage so perhaps only Vonage customers were shut out of voting. (?) Still that’s alienating A LOT of people and would-be votes!
