Yes, we are all going to be watching "Dancing with the Stars" tonight because of, in a name, Jaleel White. [In fact, I've got an update, and you can get it here...]

Us Magazine has a story about a fight between him and partner Kym Johnson. I've followed this show reasonably closely over its 14 seasons and am well-versed in its many phony, ginned-up controversies designed to grab viewers, bloggers and online chatter (particularly when ratings are sagging, as they are a bit now).

But this one sounds real — a rare and serious breach between dancer-star and show. "DWTS" has to address in some manner; we'll see how it does.
