Happy birthday, Lisa Rinna!

Jul 11, 2007, 11:13 AM | by Michael Slezak

Categories: 'Dancing With the Stars', 100% Pure Cheese, Celebrity Birthdays

My all-time favorite Dancing With the Stars contestant, Lisa Rinna, turns 44 today, and under the old adage that a YouTube clip is worth 1,000 haikus, I present to you the former Melrose Place star's legendary paso doble, performed to the strains of "The Final Countdown." (YES!)

Watch as Rinna tears into the dance with a ferocity of a feral cat encountering a crystal goblet of Fancy Feast! Witness her psychotic break after getting props from Carrie Ann Inaba! And (damn!) check out those abs!

This woman is truly worth her weight in cheese, and for that, she gets mad PopWatch props for her birthday.

"Billy Reed", you've come a long way..baby!

44, w/kids? I don't care how she does it, but she looked fantastic on "Entourage".

Ed, re. Entourage. It wasn't Rinna's character that enjoyed rimming - it was her fat friend.

I just bought Veronica Mars season 1. (not a commercial, I swear). There she was in marital hell with real life husband and fictional killer husband Harry Hamlin. I have to agree about the lips. Ugh.
Happy Birthday, Lisa

I still can't believe that Lisa didn't win. M-Zak my man, you owe me 1,000 haikus.

As my grandmother would say - hmmm, a bit vulgar, are we? If you can dance, then dance. Ya don't have to wear a bikini with faux sleeves and a veil on yer azz.

I love that they used GOB's illUUUUsion music - it's the perfect cheese repast for this cheesefest.

Michael, I love camp as much as the next guy, but wow - that was uncomfortable to watch.

Michael, please tell me your a Veronica Mars fan. You had to love her turn as Lynn Echolls in S1, married to sociopathic actor Aaron Echolls (played by the one and only Harry Hamlin)!

Her vocal is flat,
she looks like a farting cat,
I thought Billie spent the last days of her life at Melrose.
Lisa's agent convinced her that she's got talent. Clearly he's a rat.

...but I do have to admit she has nice legs!

Paul U. Wed, Jul 11, 2007 at 11:14 AM EST

Ugh, saw her in Chicago. It was just okay for me, thought she was a bit old for Roxie Hart.

Ed Wed, Jul 11, 2007 at 11:12 AM EST

Lips aside, I l-l-l-love the Rinna! I abso-f*cking love her now that she appeared on Entourage! So funny that she loves to rimm the chocolate starfish!

GeeMoney Wed, Jul 11, 2007 at 11:08 AM EST

Lisa Rinna is annoying. I may like her better if she took all of that collagen out of her lips.

NineDaves Wed, Jul 11, 2007 at 10:17 AM EST

you should see her in chicago tonight and wish her a happy birthday at the stage door. make it another "i saw this so you didn't have to." because i'm curious, though not enough to buy a ticket.
