Rocco DiSpirito Serves Up Hot Plate Of Bad Dancing
Poor reality show also-ran Rocco DiSpirito. The "celebrity chef," who used to date New York gossip maven Deb Schoeneman (best friend of Gawker profiler Vanessa Grigoriadis! circles!), has had to watch not only his TV show but also his restaurant fail with the NBC reality mess The Restaurant, and has recently been relegated to shilling frozen dinners, concocting failed television shows starring himself, and being a smug judge on Top Chef. His latest public shaming involved shimmying in pink ruffled costumery as a contestant on Last Exit to Hollywood competition show Dancing With the Stars. And the poor fella got voted off last night, defeated by feisty old clam Cloris Leachman, who is 82. Clip of the sad event after the jump.
