The Semi-Finals!Round 1: Trios
Paige & Mark & Alan - Samba
Ay Carumba! Muy Caliente! So much flirting going on...so cute! Was there any doubt that this dance was going to be spectacular? The three of them made a perfect trio. They were so in sync throughout the whole thing. This dance was made for Paige. Very cool concept! And the flirting and embarrassment continued after the dance...Alan was turning so red! He is just too adorable! I am going to say it now...Alan will be the next troupe member to get a chance to be a pro. He has been everywhere the last 2 seasons...his time is coming!
Score: 30
Antonio & Sharna & Haley - Argentine Tango
I like that this Argentine Tango is more on the playful side than the more serious side. It suits his fun personality so well. Those eyes are so intense! He pulled off some amazing lifts. Like super amazing! He did well with the quick and tricky footwork. And then that smile! Gets me every time! What a fun routine!
Score: 27
Wanyá & Lindsay & Witney - Paso Doble
Of course, Witney will be their 3rd! It's only fitting. Not only is Witney Lindsay's best friend, but she was also Wanyá's switch-up partner. Those red dresses are insane! I hope he can have a good week because he was really feeling bad about last week. Look at him go! So many quick switches from one girl to the other. It is so hard to tell them apart - so much blonde hair everywhere! He brought the power, and he commanded those girls. Very nicely done, Wanyá! Unfortunately, I think his fate is sealed in this double elimination :(
Score: 30
Nyle & Peta & Jenna - Jive
I'm so excited for this trio! Nyle's character in the dance is a cheater, cheating on Peta with Jenna. Nyle and Jenna have a great chemistry together, and it helps that she knows a little sign language. Look how happy he is in this dance...even though he got caught cheating! Uh oh, a little out of sync, but he brought it back. His kicks and flicks were a little sloppy and a little flailing as he tried to get in time. It was still a really fun dance, though! That choreography was so difficult and fast that it did get a bit hectic, like Len said. That was the word I was looking for.
Score: 27
Ginger & Val & Artem - Paso Doble
Their dynamic is hilarious! Val's talking about honey and mustard and mixing it together you get honey mustard and Ginger wants to dip into both! Ha! I love the set design along with the song for this dance. It started out pretty mild and then when the song ramped up...holy cow, did it get intense quick! Such sharp movements. She was OWNING that stage! That was incredible! It seemed way too short - I want to see more!!!
Score: 27
Round 2: Regular Dances
Paige & Mark - Argentine Tango
Talk about steamy and sexy! Whoa! Crazy lifts, perfect choreography, and amazing table segment...this just had everything. She is perfection. I love how they undressed each other at the end...that was too cool! I didn't think her skirt could get any shorter, but the whole bottom came off and then she somehow turned him right out of his shirt. Loved it! The judges comments were insane!
Score: 29
Antonio & Sharna - Contemporary
This is the perfect song for him. I love the photos of him in uniform behind them. That smile. I know I say it on every dance, but it is so infectious and it makes me smile. I find my cheeks hurting when I see him because he makes me smile that big each time! At the beginning of the season, this dance would not have been nearly as good. He's grown so much. If tonight's his last night, he definitely went out with some of his best dances. Those lifts were incredible! We've seen big strong guys who can muscle the girl up and throw her around, but he just makes it look so effortless! What a good job! Who knew I would end up liking a Steeler so much?! That was beautiful and moving - you just have to root for him. Whoa, Len said that those lifts were going to go down in the Hall of Fame of Dancing with the Stars (a play on the song).
Score: 28
Wanyá & Lindsay - Charleston
This is the perfect dance for him, it lets him just go completely wild and crazy! This dance was so fast! I think he might have lost another 20 pounds during this one! He was having a blast! If that's his last dance, it sure was a good one! I'm going to miss him! That was incredible! That brought back memories of Alfonso.
Score: 30 - the only perfect score of the night...such a shame that he will probably be going home :(
Nyle & Peta - Argentine Tango
Just when you think he can't make things more difficult for himself, this week, he decided to get blindfolded! So, not only can he not hear, but now he can't see either! It's all about feeling. He nailed it...of course. The music, the set, everything was just so moving. His package beforehand, again, just shows what an amazing man he is. Gorgeous, inspiring, and so many more adjectives to describe him. In love.
Score: 30
Ginger & Val - Quickstep
What a cool opening - they were both in hold, but not together. They came from opposite ends of the dancefloor and ran right into each other's arms perfectly. Never seen that done before. What an interesting dance, but it was so cool! She did an amazing job.
Score: 29
The Results
How did I not know that tonight was going to be a double elimination?! I don't want to lose anyone, yet again. The last few weeks, it has been hard to say goodbye to Von and Jodie. I'm guessing that tonight it will be Antonio and Wanyá just because of where they've been in the scores and voting each week. I would say that's probably about right, as far as who deserves to make it to the finals. HOWEVER, I would love to see both of them in the finale to see what they would bring. BUT, Nyle, Paige, and Ginger really deserve to be there and it wouldn't really be fair for them to not make it. So, let's see what happens!
Going Home: Antonio & Sharna and Wanyá & Lindsay :( :( :(
It had to happen, and I'm glad for the final 3 because that's probably who it should be, but man, it's hard to say goodbye to these guys! The top scorer and the bottom scorer tonight...interesting.
