Have you seen JR Martinez?
I first saw him as an actor on All My Children. He is an Iraqi vet who was badly injured by a landmine in 2003 and had over 30 surgeries. Currently he is on this season's Dancing with the Stars and he is doing very well. Turns out he is also a motivational speaker... Someone who has been through a lot of pain and come through it with a very positive attitude.

He's got a great story and he is a wonderful dancer too- he might even win.

1. He will likely be a quarter finalist if he doesn't trip up.
He may even win the thing, but he's not without competition.

3. He was the first dancer tonight- danced the Samba
I guess JR stands for Jose Rene- he is Latin so he said the dance was in his blood! Judges gave him a total of 28pts. Really an excellent dancer.
