DWTS finale: Taylor wants to win
Posted by Lorrie Lynch
Jason Taylor, Kristi Yamaguchi and Cristian de la Fuente are still in it. It's finale week of Dancing with the Stars and tomorrow one of the three will go home with the glitzy mirror ball. When I spent time with Taylor in Los Angeles last month (pictured at right), he told me: "I'm a competitor. I want to win." But it was while he was detailing the amount of time he was putting in and the way he and his partner, Edyta Sliwinska, work together that made me realize how serious he is. "She is unbelievable," Taylor said about Edyta and her discipline. Jason told me that after his first week of practice he was miserable. "I wanted to curl up and die." Bu
t that was a long time and many dances ago now. Even if he doesn't win the mirror ball, Taylor will have achieved one of his goals which was to get his name known outside of the NFL. He's not eager to leave football just yet, but when he does, he'd like to work in show biz.
