Talk about age discrimination? Why am I receiving e-mails telling me to vote for Martina before the show even airs? I thought DWTS was a dance contest. I thought we were supposed to vote based on who does the best dancing? Silly me. Guess I should have known that it is simply a popularity contest! Of course if we are voting based on age than Gladys would be the one to vote for, right?

Maybe it's because Martina is the AARP Fitness Ambassador. In hindsight, she needed all the votes she could get since she was the first celebrity to get eliminated.
