Why didn't they train Karen too?

John got the royal treatment of dance instruction for this film. Karen Lynn Gorney got nothing. She was supposed to be his talented counterpart. Why didn't they train her too? It could've been done. They get all those clumsy celebrities on DWTS movin' like swans.

And in only a few weeks...

Good question with no answer.

There's no doubt that Stephanie was supposed to be a skilled dancer, and yet whoever made that call didn't spend the time or money to get her up to speed.

Annette was even worse.
