|| By FITSNEWS || Kate Harpootlian – the 27-year-old daughter of legendary South Carolina political firebrand Dick Harpootlian – is a finalist on the hit Fox program So You Think You Can Dance.
The show – which airs tonight on Fox at 8:00 p.m. EDT – is in its eleventh season.
According to her website, Harpootlian “started her early dance training at the Columbia Conservatory of dance.”
“A few years later, she auditioned and was accepted into the Columbia City Jazz Dance Company under the direction of Dale Lam,” her bio continues. “While with CCJC, Kate had the opportunity to perform in Bulgaria, Austria, Germany, Singapore, Italy and China. After graduating early from high school, she spent a year studying under the direction of Denise Wall before moving to New York to dance professionally.”
She’s appeared in dozens of productions, including Boardwalk Empire and a Carrie Underwood video.
In addition to her dancing, Harpootlian is an actress who maintains a residence in Los Angeles – making her “bicoastal.”
We wish her the best as she and her fellow 19 co-finalists square off …

She must be adopted or something, maybe the milkman’s kid.
The second grade class had a homework assignment to find out about something exciting and relate it to the class the next day. When the time came for the little kids to give their reports, the teacher was calling on them one at a time. She was reluctant to call upon little Johnnie, knowing that he sometimes could be a bit crude. But eventually his turn came.
Little Johnnie walked up to the front of the class, and with a piece of chalk, made a small white dot on the blackboard, then sat back down. Well the teacher couldn’t figure out what Johnnie had in mind for his report on something exciting, so she asked him just what that was.
“It’s a period” reported Johnnie.
“Well I can see that” she said. “but what is so exciting about a
period.”
“Damned if I know” said Johnnie, “but this morning my sister
said she missed one. Then Daddy had a heart attack, Mommy fainted and the man next door shot himself.”
Never like her father’s politics but apparently he and his misses make some damn fine babies.
I hope she wins. She is a lovely, talented child. Even Dick would agree that she got her looks from her mother.
She looks like she smells purty.
Nothing creepy about that statement….
Dick’s elite buddy Michael Hilton of Myrtle Beach has killed two people in his years as a protected serial drunk driver, and paralyzed a third for life. After years of litigation, in which Dick used every trick in the book to delay the family of Mike’s latest victim his day in court, a total crony-based railroad job of absolute injustice saw the latest fatality’s daughter and family cheated out of justice entirely.
Dick did not represent Mike in this one, but one of their other buddies did — the well-known local attorney who had been hosting the party Mike had been attending just prior to his act of drunken driving hit-and-run murder. With the help of a local judge (also a crony, of course) the civil trial was rushed ahead of the criminal trial, without the local media even being aware of it. Not only that, but the local jury pool had been tainted by frequent ads for Mike’s lawyer and his firm, aired during the Super Bowl. Naturally, he got off scot-free.
Then came, in fairly short order, the criminal trial — this time with local media taking only scant notice. Mike was allowed to plead to a much lesser offence, got a slap on the wrist short jail sentence and a small fine.
The daughter of Mr. Gonzales, the man he killed, is a friend of mine. I have rarely seen such a blatant miscarriage of justice, and Dick Harpootlian was party to it from start to finish. So pardon me if I simply do not give a shit what show this girl is on, how pretty or talented she is, or bla bla bla. She is of the protected class, and gets what she wants, anyway — one way or another. So BFD.
Stop with all the Social Justice Warrior malarkey. Go down to CVS, get a bottle of Summer’s Eve and get the sand out of your Mangina.
You seem to know far too much about such products, sport.
When you know someone personally, it’s more than “social justice.” It’s just JUSTICE, pure and simple. And these assholes did all they could to deny it in this case. They did it in a ruthlessly dishonest way, too.
Let me guess. Are you another one of those dipshits living in a trailer and barely making the rent, who worships the elites of both parties, and believes that kissing their asses 24/7 will eventually make them throw you a few hushpuppies or something?
Number one obviously not killed due to drunk driving: In 1991, Hilton hit and killed University of Georgia student Keith Linden Jr., who stepped in front of Hilton’s vehicle on U.S. 17 near Restaurant Row. Police said the incident was an accident and no charges were filed.
Number two: Since the State AGs office tried the case I seriously doubt any Myrtle Beach politics played in to it. Harpootlian did his Job, he’s a criminal defense attorney and I assume a personal friend of Mr. Hilton.
As to the civil case, well apparently the family had poor representation or this is much ado about nothing.
Either way you seem to have anger issues. Maybe you should get those checked out at your local area mental health clinic.

The comment is gone.
It’s a dead horse that needs no more beating.
btw: Fuck off!
Dick has for years been in a very protected class himself. The Jean Toal protected class. He can and has gotten away with procedures and maneuvers that normal attorneys would have been slammed for even thinking about, much less doing. Toal has always had his back. Don’t believe the crap about their little fusses.
Ole Dick has always been a shyster.
She absolutely got her mother’s good looks.
and she’s not even that much above average in the looks department.
I wonder if she’s as big of a cunt as her old man?
Where did he adopt her?
