Samantha Harris Leaving DWTS!

Filed under: TV News

Samantha Harris will not be returning to Dancing With the Stars when it enters its 10th season in March!

“[DWTS] could not have been more of a dream job,” she said. “I loved every single second of it and I’ve made lifelong friends at the show.”

Harris decided to leave in order to focus on her correspondent duties at The Insider and Entertainment Tonight Weekend.

“I interned at Entertainment Tonight 15 years ago, the summer after my sophomore year at Northwestern and I dreamed of working in the same space as hosts Mary Hart and Mark Steines and now I’m living that dream,” she divulged.

Mary Hart?! Really?!

“I’m going to miss Samantha. We had a nice rapport off-camera and on,” said Samantha's cohost, Tom Bergeron. “I could see that her workload was picking up on The Insider and then she started doing Entertainment Tonight Weekend. As somebody who’s been known to juggle a few jobs myself, I know that that can pull you in eight different directions.”

But he's got an ulterior motive!

“I’ve been known to try to twist arms behind the scenes,” he continued. “I’m hoping this frees her up for us to have her as a contestant.”

It would be a triumphant return! Lots of luck in the meantime!

    10. 10

      I hear she is really a big bitch and everyone at E hated her…



    11. 11

      Instead we're getting ABROOOOOL's Oxy-Palsy self. Sweet gal, but how does she continue to get hired for jobs where she has to form sentences and speak clearly?



    12. 12

      Boo hoo…now bring back Drew!!!



    13. 13

      This makes me soooooo happy! I know she is into fitness and loves her arms to show but they make me sick and I think if I had to watch her hold that mic and flap her arm at the same time, ALL the time, one more time, I'd rinse my eyes with bleach! I just could not stand her! Prayers are answered! yippee!

    18. 18

      THANK GOD!!!! THAT FUCKING BONEY BITCH HAD TO GO… THOSE HUGE FUCKING BONEY SHOULDERS LOOKED HORRIBLE!!!



    19. 19

      Yiiiipy! THIS IS GOOD NEWS!!!!!!!!I can't stand her "caught in the headlight" LOOK on her FACE!!!!she annoying too!



    20. 20

      This woman has one of the worst voices…it's really put on. And she tries to sound soooo deep with that voice. I agree…she had to go. She really might be a man under all that make-up and hair. Sam?



    21. 21

      YAY!!! I can not stand her and think she was the worst part of the show! She can't form a full sentence and always makes stupid remarks. Good riddance!



    22. 22

      Thank heavens! She bugged the holy crap out of me. Bring back DREW! PLEAASEEEE



    23. 23

      seriously she made the most foolish remarks.
      Bring back Drew please.
      And no, I don't think he is cute, or we need eye candy. It is because he an Tom have a good rapport and he wouldn't try to hog the camera.
      This girl's laugh was annoying too. I feel badly that I don't like her, but I would always change the channel as soon as she came on the air.



    24. 24

      Have you ever heard some of the things she's asked the contestants? She had the most ridicules questions! She did a horrible job, sorry…but, it was just bad, I was embarrassed for her! She should watch her tapes and learn from them. This may just not of been the best fit for her, maybe these other jobs will be better for her.

      Re: MaleMadison – Second this. Husky husky. "That's right" was her nervous tic that kiiiiiiilled the segues

      Re: Norman Bates – slut.



    27. 27

      She seems like a nice person but am I the only person that cringed when she'd interview the contestants back stage?! She fumbles her words, makes stupid comments and is not a good host unless a teleprompter is present!



    28. 28

      i wonder if paula will replace her…



    29. 29

      THANK GOD SHE IS GONE!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE IS ONE OF THE MOST ANNOYING PEOPLE ON TV I HAVE EVER SEEN. I WOULD NOT WATCH THE SHOW SOMETIMES BECAUSE OF HER.
