[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Back in her ballroom dancing competition days, Hilaria Baldwin competed against one of the current pros, Emma Slater and came in higher than Emma.

The whole point of this show was supposed to be non-dancers paired with pros and see who could come up to speed the best.

Then they started adding former gymnasts and ice skaters and people with some former dancing skills. But this is pretty ridiculous.

Hopefully the fact that Hilaria is universally despised means the audience will vote her off as soon as they get a chance.

Of course, Emma is paired with Andy Ricter, so she will probably be voted off before Hilaria.

Wow, that's some BS. Doesn't portray Emma in such a good light either. I have often joked some of the celebs are better than some of these pros. I think the quality of the pros has gone down over the years as they look for younger ones who are cross-trained in contemporary and hip hop, instead of the ballroom experts from the early seasons.

How strange they call her Hillary Hayward-Thomas and not Hilaria - and list her rep country as USA!!???

What a scammer.[/quote]

She grew up in Massachusettes, but her father spoke fluent Spanish and had an undergrad degree in Spanish lit.  Her father spent time in Argentina when he was growing up because his father (Hillary's grandfather) did some business in Argentina.  So, one could guess that Hillary may have been called "Hilaria" by her father -- someone who was fluent in Spanish.  And if she liked it better -- then who cares.  I have a SIL who grew up as "Kathy" but in the last 10-15-ish years she was calling herself "Kate."  Whatever.

Hilary/Hilaria has some legit connection to Spanish in her household.  [/quote]

Nice try. None of that makes you forget how to say cucumber when you are born and raised in the USA with your ancestors on the Mayflower and attended a hoity toity prep school in Boston. Or makes you say you "came here to go to NYU" on a podcast clearly implying you came from Spain and not <4 hours away. Where you have lived your whole life. Or makes Alec Baldwin say "my wife is Spanish" on late night TV.[/quote]
