Guest Judge: Olivia Newton-John
Hayes & Emma - Jazz
Grease - "You're the One That I Want"
I can't wait for this! They've got the guys and some pink ladies, and of course the tight black pants! They even have part of the fun house, with that shake shack thing! How tough to be doing this in front of the person who played Sandy...and in front of Julianne is going to be playing Sandy in the live action show coming up on Fox! For not having ever heard of or seen Grease, I'd say he did a pretty good job! Really cool flip at the end! That was fun!
Score: 32
Andy & Allison - Jazz
Singin' in the Rain - "Good Morning"
I can see him doing really well in this. They're incorporating the couch, the coats, the steps...oh my! There was a lot of side-by-side work and he was right in sync with her the whole way. His musicality is getting better...at least I hope they think so. The stairs part was really cool! The couch part went off without a hitch...I was a little nervous because it looked like the couch slid a little bit when they stepped on the top, but they didn't lose balance and it still ended with a bang. I'm so glad the judges like him again this week! And I'm glad they are finally acknowledging that he is getting better every week. I just hope he doesn't get eliminated tonight! Can I just say again how much I love him? He is such a down-to-earth guy...he's just so cute and sweet. Love, love, love him more every week!
Score: 40!!!! I am so ecstatic that he got a perfect 40!!!!!!!
Alexa & Mark - Cha Cha
Britney Spears's dance at the Video Music Awards - "I'm a Slave 4 U" (I'm really hoping they don't use the big yellow snake)
Whoa, look at Mark's hair! That is some crazy, animal-like hair he's got going on there! I can't believe they are going to actually do the snake! Yuck! She handled it like a complete pro. And she is still holding it after the dance...I would be like "get this thing off of me!" Scratch that...I would never go through with it to begin with! Snake aside, it seemed like this dance was really short and I don't really remember any of it other than the snake. I didn't think there was really a lot of cha cha. This dance would have been perfect for...you guessed it...Bindi!
Score: 30
Bindi & Derek - Rumba
Dirty Dancing - "Time of Your Life"
I love that they practiced the iconic lift in the water just like in the movie. That was hilarious to watch. "No one puts Bindi in the corner" lol! She looks gorgeous! Derek looks smokin' in all black! This dance was so cool! I'm not sure but she seemed a little unsure of herself in the part where they were dancing in front of the big crowd...she seemed to be a little behind . And then came the iconic lift -- nailed it! And boy did Derek hold her up there for what seemed like forever! And he said he's not much of a lifter and this made him more nervous than he's ever been..yikes! But it turned out amazing...was there any doubt?!
Score: 40
Paula & Louis - Jazz
Madonna's "Vogue" from the MTV Music Awards
Now I've seen it all...Paula Deen as Madonna...holy crap. Oh Louis, those short-shorts! Well, she's got the arm movements down pat. Other than that, Louis is back to his old tricks of making it look like she's doing more than she really is. He is spinning her round little bit, but they are walking from place to place...this is not hard choreography people. The costumes made it look visually entertaining, but let's be honest...there was hardly any dancing in this.
Score: 24
Carlos & Witney - Rumba
Magic Mike - Ginuwine's "Pony"
This is going to be so hard to make into a rumba! He's in a tough spot because being this overtly sexual goes against his faith. It will be interesting to see how they pull it off. His solo at the beginning was excellent! Got to hand it to Witney, she made it into a great rumba! I loved the part with them on the chairs. Ooh...and then the ripped shirts! He nailed the classic body roll that Channing Tatum does so flawlessly. He looked really amazing...in more ways than one (sorry Alexa!). He pulled it off (literally) and he looked amazing doing it -- those abs! He was so confident and composed through the whole thing, even though it made him really uncomfortable. That was until Olivia said he missed his calling...he was so embarrassed!
Score: 38
Nick & Sharna - Samba
Saturday Night Fever - Bee Gee's "You Should Be Dancing"
This is going to be cool! They started it the same way as in the movie with him on the street...that was a cool touch. Boy, he was nailing those hip moves! He did great on his solo parts! He looked like he was having a blast! There were some touch moves and it was so fast! This was just so much fun to watch! The only thing that would have made this more like the original would have been some jet black hair! Sharna did a great job working the choreography to seamlessly weave the samba into the disco. I sure hope the scores are good on this one!
Score: 39 (boo for Carrie Ann deducting for going "out of character"...I didn't see that, and neither did the other 3 judges)
Alek & Lindsay - Jive
Elvis's "Jailhouse Rock"
He was getting so into character in rehearsal! That was hilarious! It was nice to see him having fun again. To me, this didn't really look like a jive. It seemed more jazzy than anything. There weren't really any side-by-side kicks and flicks. It was still fun, but I didn't like it as good as some of his others. I think Bruno was right, he was just holding back too much and didn't go for it 100%.
Score: 30
Tamar & Val - Jazz
Janet Jackson's "Rhythm Nation"
Poor girl. She got way low scores last week that were undeserved. Then she gets sick and she literally had no voice, so they missed several days of rehearsal. It's cool that they showed it in all black and white like the original. Tamar really looked like Janet. The precision was amazing...especially having only a couple days to learn and perfect the dance. This choreography was very different for Val. I don't think I've ever seen him do something like this before.
Score: 40

The Results
In Jeopardy: Paula & Louis, Alexa & Mark
Going Home: Paula & Louis
Thank you America!!!! You got it right! Thank you for realizing the talent of the other dancers and not just keeping Paula around for her outrageous and unexplainable soundbites. She was fun for awhile, but it was time to go. There was obviously no other dancer who deserved to go home before her. I am so happy with these results! I was worried for Andy and Carlos because they have been in jeopardy before, simply because they don't have the fan base. I would have been truly shocked if Alexa had gone home after her perfect 40 performance last week.
