![]() Heidi D’Amelio and Artem Chigvintsev – Viennese Waltz – “Chim Chim Cher-ee” from Mary Poppins – Artem has a smidge of fear to go from a flowy dance last week into a rigid dance this week. Len was full of praise and I was full of screams. Jenifer Lewis is singing live! Courtney Act (first ever drag star to perform on a DWTS franchise) is in the ballroom! Derek wanted the dance to get going a little sooner, but it was great once it got going. She’s in the rehearsal space! MAMA ODIE IS IN THE REHEARSAL SPACE. Shangela and Gleb Savchenko – Charleston – “Dig A Little Deeper” from The Princess and the Frog – Shangela’s bestie is Jenifer Lewis and THAT is culture. (Regardless, the dance included Ezra dressed as a Wildcat, signing, and looking cute. ![]() As Derek said, his diagonal pass was gorgeous. He did have to dance around desks, which made his footwork flub a few times. His frame is better, his synchronicity with Britt was exceptional, but Len hates the props. Daniel is very worried about being back in a dance with a strong frame, but he delivers. Wayne is crying, I’m smiling at home, and Ben Veeren is Wayne’s godfather?! So many emotions flowing!ĭaniel Durant and Britt Stewart – Quickstep – “Finally Free” from HSMTMTS – Y’all already know that I’m on board for any Joshua Bassett song in the ballroom. Len perfectly described that the nuances Wayne brings to the ballroom are the best of the season. This dance was just gorgeous! Carrie Ann makes sure to highlight that he took the note to make sure his footwork was tight. Wayne Brady and Witney Carson – Jazz – “Wait For It” from Hamilton – Wayne’s dancing to a ding-dang song he’s sung in Hamilton! Witney is appreciative of his Broadway background to help her craft the dance. I have, personally, found Jordin rather forgettable, but this dance put her on the map. She was like a ragdoll, but with purpose! As Bruno said, all of her movements had reason and flow and Len highlighted it was her best dance yet. Jordin Sparks and Brandon Armstrong – Jazz – “Remember Me” from Coco – She sings this song to her son as a lullaby, so let’s hope she doesn’t put us to sleep! HEY-O! She starts by singing to her son, then Brandon throws and spins her around for two minutes. When the judges are “proud,” it’s code for “you’re not good, but we’re happy you’re here.” Len wants to see better posture, but all the judges are overwhelmingly proud of him. I enjoy Sam, he’s a sweetheart, but I think he’s plateauing. When I actually paid attention, he was happy, he was fine, he was whatever. Sam Champion and Cheryl Burke – Paso Doble – “The Greatest Show” from The Greatest Showman – I’m immediately off my game, because Ezra started the dance flexing at the camera. There’s something there, so here’s hoping he works even harder going forward. I just don’t understand, because nothing is consistent with him. Carrie Ann sees that he’s rushing, which is hurting every performance. He had the goofiest face the entire time, but I don’t know why? Nerves? Len and Derek both want to see less tricks throughout, because the content is not bad, per se. Literally everyone.) Our first Charleston of the season is not something I’d necessarily assign to Joseph. Joseph Baena and Daniella Karagach – Charleston – “A Star is Born” from Hercules – Joseph? As Hercules? Who would’ve thought? (Everyone.
