I'm feeling frustrated this morning. There's a group of women who have been coming to the dance competition since Josh was in it two years ago. They love him - like really love him. He actually has fans. They would show up at his doo-wop performances and on nights that he played the piano at Angelo's. I've even run into some of them out and about in town and they are always asking me questions about him. Everyone at the studio has started calling them the "Joshies." So I totally appreciated them when Josh was in the competition but now it's just getting annoying. They've jumped on the Lauren bandwagon and convince everyone to vote for her. Now, I love Lauren, but I want Mark to have a fair shot at winning this thing.
I think the judges made it even worse for us the other night because one of them looked at me and said, "Nicole, this pairing reminds me of another partner you once had. You and Mark are just as hot." I don't think the Joshies liked this. I just hope they don't take it out on Mark and I hope the other people in the crowd will like him enough to keep him safe. I'll feel really bad if he doesn't get to dance with Jenna again.
The other thing that kind of annoys me is that Lauren encourages these women to obsess over her brother. She keeps telling them that he might come to see her dance. Every week they are looking around for him. I'm almost positive that Josh has no plans to come home.
It's just so weird. The whole thing is so weird to me. I just don't understand how they can be so obsessed with someone they don't know. I mean, they don't stalk his house or anything weird like that, but it just seems like overboard adoration. It's not like he's a celebrity. He's just a guy that danced in a community competition. I just don't understand why they are so loyal after two years.
