Samantha Harris: I Work Out With Josselyn

Karl Erikson — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 23:06:00 GMT

Samantha Harris, host of "Dancing With the Stars," returned to the show just weeks after giving birth to daughter Josselyn Sydney, who just celebrated her first birthday. Samantha says her post-baby body is due to luck, nursing, and healthy living.

She was committed to an "intense and dedicated" exercise regime before she got pregnant. She says she refused to "eat for two" and that's a lot of what controlled her weight gain. "Hopefully that is what the key was to helping lose the weight afterward," Samantha says. "And Josselyn was very good to me through the pregnancy, so I didn't put on a lot of weight."

Samantha, 34, is really thankful for having such flexible hours on her jobs...she not only hosts DWTS, but also acts an an E! correspondent. This makes handling motherhood and work easier than it is for many. Josselyn often visits mommy on the set, and Samantha still finds time for a workout.

"I put her in the Bjorn in front of me and do stairs with her because I don't like to be without her, but I want to get my workout done."

Samantha Harris Serves George Clooney

Whit Honea — Sun, 13 Jan 2008 19:56:00 GMT

“If you’re reading this, (George), I pose this challenge to you: I want to see you shake your hips!” Those are the words of new mom Samantha Harris as she calls out George Clooney to use what his mama gave him.

Nice try, Samantha, but I'm guessing Clooney will pass. I have no idea whether or not he can dance or even thinks he can, but I do know that he has something that none of the other contestants on Dancing With the Stars do, a career. The guy is busy.

Samantha Harris Returning to Dancing With The Stars, But it Can't Fill The Hole in My Heart Left By Wayne Newton's Departure

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 12 Oct 2007 14:05:00 GMT

Go ahead and celebrate. Dancing With The Stars co-host Samantha Harris will return to the show on October 15, only three weeks after giving birth to daughter Josselyn Sydney Hess. Damn. Three weeks after I had my baby, I hadn't even changed out of my hospital gown yet.

But while the rest of you are having your 'Welcome Back Samantha' parties with your five-layer dips and pitchers of fruity sangria, I'll be mourning the exit of Wayne Newton from the show.

Hello? Mr. Las Vegas? This show was made for him. Okay, so the guy can't dance, but don't get technical with me. C'mon, people, the guy's like 90 - haven't you ever heard of the sympathy vote? I was dreaming about seeing Wayne in the finals, faux-stache in place, dressed in a lycra cowboy suit with sequined fringe and dancing the foxtrot to Danke Schein. It would have killed.

Miley Cyrus and Daddy Billy Ray Duet on Dancing With the Stars: Video!

Whit Honea — Fri, 12 Oct 2007 08:03:00 GMT

Miley Cyrus is a bit older than most of the kids we cover, but since she's a celebrity, her dad is a celebrity and they are on a show filled with celebrity parents, why not? It's not like we haven't been talking about her all month anyway.

Miley and her dad Billy Ray Cyrus performed a duet on Dancing With the Stars last night. Here it is:

No More Posing for Samantha Harris: She's Had Her Baby

Whit Honea — Sun, 23 Sep 2007 18:21:00 GMT

Samantha Harris was perhaps the greatest pregnant poser of all time. Her patented pose was a take on the classic, but with just the right touch of contemporary influence. She was her own action figure. I'll miss that. I wonder how soon she can get pregnant again.

In the meantime I have every bit of faith in her that she'll utilize her new role as a mom to create something fresh and exciting. What? Oh yeah, she had a baby girl this morning, Josselyn Sydney Hess.

Congrats.

Bump Watch: Constance Zimmer Cleans Up Good For The Emmys

BadKitty — Tue, 18 Sep 2007 11:12:00 GMT

Yay for Constance Zimmer! Recently I had to bestow a Maternity Wear Mistake on the Entourage and Boston Legal star for an ill-considered combination of pattern and dress length. Fortunately someone, probably her mom, reminded her of how pretty she looks in a bright red gown.

She's also continuing to work on The Pose, although she could use a fine tuning session with pro-poser Dancing With The Stars' Samantha Harris. In it's classic application, The Pose requires a three-quarter turn, which provides a good angle on the bump while making the poser seem surprisingly slim hipped. Yes, it is on this type of paradox that Hollywood thrives.

Samantha Harris Proves That Black Is Slimming

HerBadMother — Mon, 13 Aug 2007 15:34:00 GMT

Samantha Harris - shown here at the HFPA Installation Buffet (what's that, you ask? NFI) last week - is due next month. Next month? She barely looks pregnant here. In fact, I'd say that she doesn't look pregnant so much as she looks caught in the act of smuggling stolen scripts out of the Beverly Hills Hotel under her dress (what, you think she wants to host Dancing With The Stars forever? How do you think Gwyneth got started?) If it weren't for the boobies, which are too bounteous to have been crafted with silicone, I'd say that Sam's whole thing pregnancy thing was a scam to get out of DWTS, which, you know, isn't exactly a stepping stone ot the Oscars. In any case, a woman looking that slim at nine months pregnant is just weird: I look more pregnant than she does, and I'm only pre-menstrual.

Not To Say That Sam Harris is Plastic...

BadKitty — Fri, 03 Aug 2007 18:12:00 GMT

We can't stop noticing: in addition to constantly snapping into The Pose, Sam's arms are always just a little bent. And I'm starting to remember that she never blinked on DWTS, even when confronted with the brilliant gleam of Maks' waxed chest under TV lights. Which makes me think...

...maybe she really is a Barbie doll, and maybe her husband Michael has a Ken bump!

DWTS Sam Harris Almost As Lifelike as Barbie

BadKitty — Sat, 28 Jul 2007 19:07:00 GMT

Wow, she's frozen into that pose like Han Solo in carbonite. Do you think her fingers are permanently fused together like Barbie's? Look how that cute Prada bag is just hanging there. And if her feet are always superarched (yes, like Barbie) how does she fit them in the stirrups at her prenatal check ups? So many questions. Samantha Harris: TV announcer, mother-to-be, "Woman" of Mystery.

How Did We Miss This? Jennie Garth "Confirmed" On Dancing With The Stars

BadKitty — Thu, 05 Jul 2007 13:47:00 GMT

Granted, that confirmation comes by way of Star Magazine. But Jennie so fits the profile. She has undeniable fame (Kelly Marlene Taylor! OMG!) of dubious merit, baby weight to work off (daughter Fiona Eve born last October) and a single degree relationship with a popular member of a previous season (OMG! Steve Sanders!) Finally, I confirmed it on Jennie's wikipedia page, so now we know it's fact, people. Fact.

Game on Mel B! Are you what America wants, really, really wants? I think we need to find out. Plus this season we also need to see that killer nursery that must be behind the scenes for all the Mom-dancers and SaMANtha Harris. (Oh yes, I stick with my theory that Sam Is A Man. That voice! Those hands! "Her" pregnancy is a red herring made possibly by the magic of science. Over-posing = over-compensation.)

Samantha Harris is the Ted Bundy of Mom-lebrity

Whit Honea — Sat, 30 Jun 2007 19:02:00 GMT

As I've mentioned before, Samantha Harris is a serial poser. Seriously, she needs to be stopped. I can't even make cute about this.

Woman, you need to find another pose! Watch this, and practice in front of a mirror.

Samantha Harris is a Serial Poser

Whit Honea — Wed, 27 Jun 2007 18:08:00 GMT

Up and coming mom-lebrity, Samantha Harris, has her signature move down. She is good. Look at her here and here. I hope she owns the rights to that pose. It could be the next 'buffalo stance.'

Strike it again Sam.

More From the Rat's Nest: Sam Harris Version

Whit Honea — Sun, 24 Jun 2007 21:44:00 GMT

Samantha Harris rounds out our stay on the red carpet today by striking her signature pose, either that or she's getting ready for the belly laughs promised by Ratatouille. I wonder if she understands that the belly doesn't actually laugh. Not out loud anyway.

Samantha Harris is No Tiny Dancer

Whit Honea — Wed, 20 Jun 2007 13:35:00 GMT

Samantha Harris, of Dancing With the Stars, has obviously been doing a little dancing in the dark. A little dirty dancing. She wasn't dancing with herself, that's for sure. Somebody must have said, "Let's dance" because it takes two to tango. Or something like that.

Is that enough? I don't watch the damn show. I only know her husband's name is Michael and the baby is due in the fall.

Crap. I forgot to make a Lambada joke.
