Hello and welcome to Dancing With The Stars, week two! Last week, we bid adieu to Ashley and Edyta and Macy and Jonathan. This week our fourteen remaining dancers will take on the tango, the jive and the quickstep.
As the descend down the stairs, I am at a loss as to why Aaron Carter is dressed like a leprechaun and fall in love with Kelly’s dress. Tony Dovolani is too adorable and it is pretty obvious that Melissa and Mark have the jive this week. Tom introduces our guest judge Baz Luhrmann, who choreographed Moulin Rouge and Romeo and Juliet. He even helped out with the movie Strictly Ballroom, which helped inspire DWTS. The first couple to dance is Joanna and Derek. They have the jive this week and while he thinks it is the perfect dance, she seems to be struggling. However, she is determined to bring it all to the floor. I like how they look all rock and roll for the dance. It is an edgy, sexy version of the dance with nice tricks and decent footwork. If she made it a bit cleaner it would have been much better. What a nice way to start the evening. Carrie Ann loves the energy and comments on her feet and lack of control. Bruno wants her to keep it clean but not hold back. Baz wants to see them connect more, but overall thought it was good. Scores: 6-7-7=20 out of 30 Natalie and Alec are up next with their quickstep. He wants her to work on breathing more and she wants to prove she can be elegant and have a good time. It is quite elegant for a quickstep, but she has fabulous footwork and they just have this classy vibe about them. I love how it has the prefect blend of technique and artistry. Bruno wants her to relax a bit more. He says everything is there otherwise. Baz thinks she just lights up the room but also wants her to stop thinking so much. Carrie Ann loves her but wants her to think of Alec as an extension of her. Scores: 7-7-7 for a 21 out of 30. Chuck and Anna T. take on the tango this week. She adds some of his fighting moves into it to make him more comfortable. She tells him to look at the judges like he wants to ‘rip their hearts out.’ The dance itself is….HOLY COW! Tough, edgy, fabulously executed…….OH……MY………GOSH! I seriously cannot take my eyes off them. That was amazing and got a well-deserved standing ovation. Baz thinks it was fantastic! Carrie Ann says she was frightened but loved the impact it head. Sexy and scary—in her words! Bruno compliments his work ethic Scores: 6-7-6=19 out of 30. Melissa and Mark are next with—you guessed it, the jive. They are fun and giggly during practice and she says he pushes her to the limit. The dance is fun, bouncy and cute, but her footwork is a bit off. Everything else is there; she just needs to make the steps a bit crisper. Carrie Ann squeals over how great it was. Bruno calls her the flickering ladybug but wants her to watch her feet. Baz thinks it was great but wants her to work on her feet more. Scores: 7-6-6=19 out of 30. The next couple to dance is Michael and Anna D. They have the quickstep this week and he seems a bit frustrated. However, he sticks with it until he gets it right. As for their dance---it is a bit slow for a quickstep in my opinion but the footwork is much better and he seems to be more confident and relaxed this week. Baz says he enjoyed it as well. Carrie Ann says it was a touchdown. Scores: 7-7-6=20 out of 30. Debi and Maks have the tango and seem to be fighting this week. She thinks he treats her like an idiot and he feels bad for hurting her feelings. AW! HUG! I am amused by how they dance to Roxanne by Moulin Rouge. It is hot, sexy and shows the love/hate relationship the way the tango should. Pair that with some great footwork and you got one heck of a dance! Baz thinks it was fantastic. Carrie Ann calls her the drama queen and thinks it was very beautiful. Bruno likes it but mentions that parts of it were shaky. Scores: 7-7-7 for a 21 out of 30. Louie and Chelsie’s jive is next after the commercial break. He thinks they can nail it because they are so young and energetic. I loved that flip in them beginning! I think this dance is right up his alley. He began a bit slow, but as he got into it, the dance only got better. He is too adorable!!!! Carrie Ann loves his energy but thinks he got lost a bit. Bruno thinks he can do it and he has the potential do more!! Baz loves his joy and thinks they are a great couple. Score: 6-7-6 for a total of 19 out of 30. Aaron and Karina have the quickstep this week. She wants to get the best out of him and admits she sometimes forgets how new this is to him. I am way too amused by the fact that they have the theme to the Muppet Show. It didn’t only have amazing footwork, but the entire thing was just incredible. I loved the Muppets and the whole thing was just great! Bruno compares him to Fred Astaire and screams over how spectacular it was. He warns him about setting the bar so early on in the competition. Baz also loved it! Carrie Ann also screams over how great it was. Scores: triple 9s for a 27 out of 30. Kelly and Louis are up next and she is scared of not living up to last week’s successful dance. However, Louis calms her down and she begins to enjoy herself again. Their tango was edgy and sexy, but there were a lot of mistakes in it. I think it was more nerves than anything else because it started out good, and then it was as if she got lost and it all fell apart from there. Poor thing was almost crying. Baz calls her a self-revelation and thinks something fantastic was going on. Carrie Ann likes what she is seeing. Bruno thinks there were too many mistakes in it but thinks she can be amazing. Scores: 6-7-6 for a 19 out of 30. Kathy and Tony hope to impress with the quickstep this week. He thinks this dance is more her cup of tea. She is determined to bring it this week. They are dancing to The King And I’s Shall We Dance. It is slow, but still very elegant and more Kathy. However, she needs to bring it a bit more. Carrie Ann wants her to stop being so careful. Bruno wants her to express herself more. Baz wants her to attack it more and make it more exciting. Scores: 6-6-6 for an 18 out of 30. Mark and Lacey have the quickstep this week and he is excited to tackle it. She begins the dance by jumping over his head and they just have all this energy, great moves and excitement. I think it was one of the better ones of the night. He does slip a bit, but recovers so well it can almost be overlooked. Bruno loves it, but makes some comments on how to improve. Baz thinks he has the potential to be a great dancer. Carrie Ann points out his slip and recovery and wants him to relax more. However, she likes it a lot! Scores: 7-7-7 for a 21 out of 30. Mya and Dmitry dance the jive this week. Dmitry wants to make sure it is something the judges approve of and she wants it to be the best it can be, The song is a spoken one with a beat and just has all this edginess, sexiness and so wonderfully executed. They OWNED this! Baz thinks it was fantastic. Carrie Ann thinks it was great. Bruno practically jumps over the table in excitement over how wonderful it was. Scores: triple 9s for a 27 out of 30. Tom and Cheryl have the tango this week. He seems to be having fun with it despite his struggling. He discovers he as a pre stress fracture, but is still willing to dance. OK, I have to hand it to this man, not only is his excitement endearing, but he is actually quite the dancer. That was GOOD! Except, for him almost dropping her. Carrie Ann says she liked it and thinks they were well matched. Bruno calls him distinguished and determined and appreciates him trying to do a proper tango. Baz thinks it was dignified and graceful—except for the end. Scores: 6-6-6 for an 18 out of 30. The last dance of the night is Donny and Kym’s jive. I think it is right up his alley since it is fun and exciting---like him. The dance is done to Secret Agent Man, which is hysterical in itself. The dance is cute, fun and has a lot of great moves in it! Yes, Donny, this is your dance! Bruno calls it mission accomplished---played just right. Baz thinks it was accurate and fantastic. Carrie Ann says it was an amazing performance and compliments Kym’s outfit. Scores: 8-9-8=25 out of 30. The show ends with recaps of the dance and the reminder to vote to keep your favorite in the competition. Tune into Dancing with the Stars tomorrow for Selena Gomez, Stomp the Yard and more eliminations! Goodnight!
