Milo and Witney are next with a Tango – It’s only the second dance of the night and it’s already amazing! He looked like an expert out there.
Bruno: It was fire. So focused, so powerful. Off to a fantastic tango. Milo lead and may have whiplash. CAI: I love my job. Milo has quite a range. Len: Hit every nuance in music. The only complaint is his bottom sticks out. Sharp, fast, clear.

Donny Osmond will be performing next while Danelle and Artem dance a Quickstep – A little too much fluff. She was basically walking but still kudos.
CAI: loved the way Artem used the space. Danelle‘s first pass was fluid, graceful, elegant. It was touching. Len: It took a while to get started but once it got started it was great. Her dancing complimented Donny‘s singing perfectly. Bruno: Lucky girl tonight. Looks like she enjoyed herself. Well played.

Alexis and Alan are salsaing next! – The contestants this year are incredible!
Len: They were all in. Plenty of rhythm. Working her assets. Final lift wasn’t as slick. She is a great dancer. Bruno: She’s bootylicious and very very bendy. Cirque du solei meet salsa. CAI: innocent when she dances. Flexibility works for and against her. Great lines.

John and Emma are jiving to Elvis Presley next! – To me, the added dancers were a distraction. John needs to loosen up a bit if he wants to stay in the competition next week.
Bruno: Thought it was so much fun. Lost a bit of jive. CAI: thought last night was better. John needs to watch his arms. He needs to own it. Len: Says they did a great job. Two dances in one week is a big challenge.

DeMarcus and Lindsay are joined by Boys II Men next- Quickstep – DeMarcus was a LADIES MAN with that dance! Great job!
CAI: BE careful with shoulders. Hunched over sometimes. Len: complaining about his arm. Lindsay says it’s her fault because of the height difference. Liked the dance routine, but perfect the little things. Bruno: On a winning streak. Dashing presence. Star quality. Well done!

Len: Held interest. Had a nice mood. Well done. He wants to try the jump Jenna did. Bruno: good jazz content. Started to tell a story. He still has to come out of his shell. Go for it! CAI: A little off tempo. Don’t stop moving in between. Saw improvement.

Another Quickstep is coming up from Bobby and Sharna – I was distracted because they cut Hayley Erbert in half but that was really short and Bobby needs to calm down and maybe he would be half decent.
CAI: Bobby is very entertaining but wants him to calm it down to actually see his form and dancing. Len: Las Vegas vibe. Plenty of entertainment. Bruno: Pulling and pushing Sharna. Be gentle! Tone it down.
