RECAP: The first couple tonight to grace the dance floor is Jack Osbourne and Cheryl Burke dancing the Quickstep. Judges Comments: Julianne “That is such an improvement from last week, ballroom is your strength but you were so focused and you lack having fun. Still it was so good”. Bruno “He was like jumping Jack Flash, the footwork was great, you kept up the pace and don’t lose the frame”. Carrie Ann “I liked your frame, I thought you were way more animated this week and I loved it”. Judges Scores: Carrie Ann 8, Julianne 8, Bruno 8 = 24. [VIDEO HERE]

Elizabeth Berkley Lauren and Val Chmerovskiy are next and they are dancing the Argentine Tango.  Judges Comments: Bruno “You’ve done it, you have taken us into a journey, you did it and should be proud of yourself”. Carrie Ann “It was so powerful and every movement had meaning, I liked the sharpness”. Julianne “You have been one of my favorites from day one, Val had amazing choreography and Elizabeth took control”. Judges Scores: Carrie Ann 9, Julianne 9, Bruno 9 = 27 [VIDEO HERE]

Brant Daugherty and Peta Murga Troyd are next and they are dancing the Salsa. Judges Comments: Carrie Ann “The lifts were fantastic, when you take off your shirt it was really revealing and you just need to work on your moves”. Julianne “That was awesome, I’m single now. I think it was a little loosy goosy for me, it could have been tighter but I understand you are working your butt off”. Bruno “I thought you were a good boy, I had no idea you were such a brazen party animal. The salsa is having a good idea, but it was missing the control; you lost the technique”. Judges Scores: Carrie Ann 7, Julianne 7, Bruno 7 =21 [VIDEO HERE]

Valerie Harper and Tristan Macmanus are up next and doing the Vienesse Waltz. Judges Comments: Julianne “I don’t think I have told you how courageous you are. I thought your lines were gorgeous, I like when you are together and I would love to see you be more confident on your own”. Bruno “This week you painted some pretty pictures, but next time if you go wrong, act it, don’t show your mistakes”. Carrie Ann “I love watching you, it touches my heart. There were some beautiful moments, but the mistakes stood out”. Judges Scores: Carrie Ann 6, Julianne 6, Bruno 6 = 18 [VIDEO HERE]

Leah Remini and Tony Dovolani are up next and they are dancing the Cha Cha. Judges Comments: Bruno “Leah from the block, all the attitude, you got it. It is really important for you to stretch”. Carrie Ann “I love watching you, it is so great to see but some of the movements should match up to your face”. Juianne “I think you had strong foot work but they were sticking a bit. I feel like there is a little bit of a disconnect, you need to stretch and use your body to match your face”. Judges Scores: Carrie Ann 8, Julianne 8, Bruno 8 = 24. [VIDEO HERE]

Corbin Bleu and Karina Smirnoff are up next and they are dancing the Paso Doble. Judges Comments: Carrie Ann “I loved it, the lines were perfect but the bad news is that there was a little bit of hip hop that came in”. Julianne “thank you for doing no gimmicks because you don’t need it, the only thing is that your hips were too far back”. Bruno “What you had was the pure essence of Paso Doble, like a young bull. But, it was really powerful”. Judges Scores: Carrie Ann 9, Julianne 9, Bruno 9 = 27 [VIDEO HERE]

Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi and Sasha Farber are up next and they are dancing the Jive. Judges Comments: Julianne “You are the cutest thing, that was so you. It was a performance and I loved it, make your splits and kicks sharper next time”. Bruno “Your performance level has grown, you have made incredible achievement. I thought it was brilliant”. Carrie Ann “You are a little pocket full of energy. Watch your arms next time, they were a little t-rex”. Judges Scores: Carrie Ann 8, Julianne 8, Bruno 8 = 24. [VIDEO HERE]

Christina Milian and Mark Ballas are up next and they are dancing Jazz. Judges Comments: Bruno “It wasn’t traditional but it was fantastic, you need more control”. Carrie Ann “I loved the way you transitioned but you need to work on your shoulders, but you performed the heck out of this”. Julianne “This week I was hoping for a softer side, I would love to see that. There were moments that were dancing side by side than together”. Judges Scores: Carrie Ann 8, Julianne 8, Bruno 8 – 24 [VIDEO HERE]

Judges Scores: Carrie Ann 9, Julianne 9, Bruno 9 = 27 [VIDEO HERE]
