This weeks "challenge" was a fusion dance that was chosen by their competitors. Sounds interesting until you see what they have to choose from. Coming from a DWTS junkie, I know all the dances like a boss. I know them backwards and forwards. I saw the list producers came up with and instantly started shaking my head in confusion. Let's also mention how they only know how to combine dances with a samba. Like there are other dances out there that would fuse better with a quickstep and rumba. Let's get a little more creative!
In what world do a Rumba and a samba go together? They don't. Never have and never will.
- Apolo and Karina- 8.5: Paso/Cha cha- The only good thing about this dance was when Apolo took off his shirt. Dude is ripped. I mean hello!
- Emmitt and Cheryl-6: Rumba/ Samba- There were so many things wrong with this dance the next president will be announced before I am done complaining about what I didn't like about it. But I will spare you the agony and give you the main points.
- 1. Breast cancer awareness month is over, no need to over kill the pink dude.
- 2. Rumba and Samba???? Really
- 3. On what planet was that a ligit song to play for that dance. Like really? Fail
- 4. Rumba and samba???? I don't get it.
- Kirstie and Maks: 7 Quickstep/ samba- Quickstep was good but she lost footing. I just want to know how she is here and Sabrina is not. (There I said it)
- Kelly and Val: 8- Foxtrot/Cha cha- Cute dance. But I hated that one dance was first then they did the second. I know you could have mixed it better Val. Still good though.
- Melissa and Tony: 9- Tango/Cha cha- That first costume she had one was incredible. Hair and makeup on her tonight was fantastic. I really did like her dance. She pulled everything out at the very beginning and I think started to lose steam at the end. But in all honesty it was great.
- Shawn, Derek/Mark: 10- Tango/Paso- Cheers to the only dance that made any logical sense to go together! Paso and Tango are BOTH intense! Therefore it makes sense which is why they go a perfect score. (FINALLY). I wish that Derek could have danced with her because I honestly believe that they dance better. Sorry Mark.
- Gilles and Pete: 8- Argentine Tango/ Samba- That song was a mess. Congrats Peta for making a tango out of that song. I have no idea how in the world you did it.
Swing dance marathon.
Gilles and Peta got knocked out a round too early in my opinion. Shawn and Mark had an unfair advantage and I noticed (dance police alert) that they pulled moves from their original freestyle together. Not cool. Do it the right way and do new things. Plus why in the world are we recycling music from freestyles. Last week it was Drew Lachey and then it was Donald Driver. Get NEW music.It was a match between Kelly/Val and Melissa/Tony. Kelly and Val definitely had the moves and were really pulling them out. But in the bottom of my heart, I wanted it to be Melissa and Tony. In the end, Melissa and Tony got the ten added to their score!!!! So excited for them. I really do think that she deserves to be on the show and still in the competition.
No results show tomorrow night for the election! Which means.....NO MORE ELECTION COMMERCIALS!!!!!!!! Celebrate good times!!!!!
