Marlee Matlin is the first reality star!
todos la vie on deaf discourse Seriously, Marlee has me hooked. She's the first star in my world, deaf or not. I had Dancing with the Stars on a few times facetiously in the past, but seeing Marlee there in the background and in commentaries, I start to feel like a jitterbug watching the reality show. She dances with the music in spite of not hearing it. I'm not a big fan of reality shows, but Mar...
