Brooke Burke made lunches, picked up the carpool, hugged and kissed all four of her children, put out the usual daily fires and managed to dazzle the world on her first night as host of Dancing with the Stars. All whilst rocking a sequined gown. I’m in awe. She looked amazing in an embellished silver gown with a cutout. She interviewed the contestants with confidence, grace and ease. Read on for a recap of the night’s events.

Chad Ochocinco
Chad was praised by the judges, who said he definitely had a "little something." They had fun and received a 18 total points.
Shannen Doherty
Shannen is dancing for her dad, who had a terrible stroke. In tears, she said that her dad’s face was "all that mattered." She also received 18 points.
Erin Andrews
This sports announcer has legs that go on forever. Wow. The judges were impressed with her (she was even called a "funky monkey"). The couple received 21 points.
Jake Pavelka
The bachelor struggled a little at the get-go…But the judges said he put in a good effort and did an "excellent job." He received a 20.
Niecy Nash
The Clean House host danced to Rescue Me. She had spunk and personality! She earned 18 points.
Evan Lysacek
"Is GOOD" says Carrie Anne. It showed that he is used to dancing alone. The champion ice skater needs to learn to dance with a partner. He earned 23 points.
Buzz Aldrin
The living legend himself. Love it. And he was moving pretty good for 80! "I gave up my moon boots for dancing shoes" said Buzz. He earned a 14.
Nicole Scherzinger
The Pussycat Doll set the bar for season 10. She danced her way to a 25.
Aiden Turner
Aiden didn’t do so hot. "I gave it my best" he said. He earned 5’s across the board for a total of 15.
Kate Gosselin
"I’m going to prove everyone wrong," she said. "Including myself." The mom of eight dedicated her dance to all the moms out there. She earned a 15.
Pamela Anderson
The Baywatch Babe showed a lot of skin. It was easy to see that she had a lot of fun though! (She said her reason for doing the show was to check another thing off the list). She earned a 21.
Congrats Brooke!
Brooke nailed it Monday night. And then she tucked her kids into bed. Gotta love it. It’s as Tom said: Brooke is the hardest working mom in the biz.
