Moving to entertainment, on Monday night Dancing with the Stars contestant Petra Nemcova dedicated her first dance to the victims of Japan and everyone affected by the situation there. The foxtrot that she performed received a score of only 18/30, but its significance was much more. While practicing for the season premiere, Petra learned of the Japan earthquake and tsunami and, as a victim of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami, was especially touched, finding it hard to continue practicing.
A video of her performance and the tough road leading up to it is below:
She stated in an interview that “There are many stories of hope and loved ones being found”, and encouraged the people of Japan not to lose hope. Her performance was well received by the crowd.
