\tConrad Green, it’s so good to have you back as executive producer on Dancing with the Stars<\/em>! First we get Derek Hough running around like a spy and rappelling down to the ballroom before Peta Murgatroyd helped to kick off a fiery opening number to \u201cLive and Let Die.\u201d Just like old times when DWTS<\/em> was in its glory years on ABC. <\/p>\n

\n

\tLet’s get on with Bond night, James Bond<\/em> night on Disney+.<\/p>\n

\n\tCheryl Ladd and Louis Van Amstel<\/strong>. The veteran actress thought she was a goner last week, but Goodman \u2014 bless his heart \u2014 saved her for another day. So she dug up an old photo of her and Sean Connery for inspiration so she can be \u201cthe Bond girl I never got to be\u201d while performing a rumba. Elegant! \u201cThat was your best dance,\u201d said judge Hough, who was particularly impressed with the graceful way she held her arms. \u201cThat couldn’t have gone better. You look absolutely beautiful, by the way. Let’s go, Cheryl!\u201d Score:<\/strong> 24 out of 40<\/p>\n

\n\tJessie James Decker and Alan Bersten.<\/strong> The country star went the extra mile by dipping herself in gold for her rumba to \u201cGoldfinger.\u201d But some of the judges didn’t take a shine to what was otherwise a solid performance. We were hoping she would sink to the bottom two or what? \u201cYou’ve got to work on your feet,\u201d said judge Len Goodman. \u201cYour footwork wasn’t great.\u201d Score:<\/strong> 26 out of 40<\/p>\n

\n\tJoseph Baena and Alexis Warr<\/strong>. Bummer, man: his partner Daniella Karagach was still out after testing positive for Covid before last week’s show. So Warr got another chance to dance with the bodybuilder, who showed off his strength by hoisting her over his head during their Argentine tango. \u201cIt lacked a bit of fluidity. I didn’t really like that lift, it was out of character,\u201d said Goodman. \u201cBut the bottom line, I think it was your best dance to date.\u201d Score: <\/strong>29 out of 40<\/p>\n

\n\tSam Champion and Cheryl Burke<\/strong>. The former weatherman remembered how he and his dad did n’t talk for years after he came out of the closet. But dear ol ‘dad eventually expressed pride in his son, which gave Champion the confidence he needed \u2014 like, say, for whenever he has to perform a samba in front of a studio audience (which included GMA<\/em>‘s Robin Roberts). \u201cYou have this natural joy I think might have worked a little against you in this dance,\u201d said judge Carrie Ann Inaba. \u201cLet your body go a little more.\u201d score<\/strong>: 25 out of 40<\/p>\n

\n\tVinny Guadagnino and Koko Iwasaki. <\/strong>The Jersey party boy was sent into mini-etiquette class so he’d know how to play a sophisticate during his \u201cThunderbolt\u201d rumba. Honestly, the best part of his otherwise forgettable performance was when the cameraman cut to two unrecognizable women in the audience, who were simply referred to as \u201cVinny’s friends.\u201d \u201cYou do have to start getting the details,\u201d said Inaba. \u201cWatch the nuance of your hands, which means maybe training a few more hours. No diss, that’s totally full of respect.\u201d Score:<\/strong> 23 out of 40<\/p>\n

\n\tTrevor Donovan and Emma Slater. <\/strong> the 90210<\/em> actor is getting the hang of this whole sexy dancing thing in the ballroom: he began his tango with an upstage somersault before bolting down to Slater and grabbing her neck. And did he hold up her leg later and pretend that it was a gun? By God, I think he did. \u201cYou attempted a very difficult routine,\u201d said judge Bruno Tonioli. Score: <\/strong>27 out of 40<\/p>\n

\n\tSelma Blair and Sasha Farber<\/strong>. The actress admitted that her \u201cMS leg\u201d froze up last week during their jive. So why not make it harder and put her in a blindfold this week? Farber’s strange choice in props, aside, the actress got her sexy on by keeping those hips busy and performing the splits again. \u201cSo inspired as always. intensely romantic,\u201d said Tonioli. \u201cIt was a bit risqu\u00e9 darling. I got a Nicole Kidman vibe.\u201d score<\/strong>: 28 out of 40<\/p>\n

\n\tJordan Sparks and Brandon Armstrong<\/strong>. The singer’s rumba was a little underwhelming, and her sleepy music, \u201cLicence to Kill,\u201d did n’t really help. \u201cYou need a quicker spot and close your feet closer together,\u201d Hough said of her turns. \u201cThere are so many turns in all of your dances. Work on those.\u201d Score:<\/strong> 29 out of 40<\/p>\n

\n\tShangela and Gleb Savchenko<\/strong>. The drag queen opened her rumba with a steamy solo before oozing into a terrific rumba to Tina Turner’s \u201cGoldenEye.\u201d Shangela was finally in every element under the mirror ball. \u201cDamn girl that was fierce!\u201d said Inaba. Score: <\/strong>30 out of 40<\/p>\n

\n\tDaniel Durant and Britt Stewart.<\/strong> The deaf actor was still riding high after earning his first 8 last week. But his confidence was put to the test with this week’s rumba, which is n’t so easy to count out while trying to appear mysterious and debonair. Still, the judges remain impressed by his perseverance. I mean, who would n’t be he? \u201cI’m gonna say, what I loved you took command of that dance. I could see you were leading that dance, you weren’t just holding on, hoping for the best,\u201d said Goodman. Score:<\/strong> 31 out of 40<\/p>\n

\n\tHeidi D’Amelio and Artem Chigvintsev.<\/strong> The Hulu reality star looked plum tired halfway into her Argentine tango, but her body didn’t show signs of wear. She floored the judges with her tight and sultry moves. \u201cThat was your best dance yet!\u201d said Hough. \u201cIt was so good, so strong, it played to your strengths. That was so fantastic.\u201d score<\/strong>: 32 out of 40<\/p>\n

\n\tGabby Windey and Val Chmerkovskiy. <\/strong> The Bachelorette has been feeling like an imposter, especially in the face of trained dancers like Wayne Brady and Charli D’Amelio. But her cha cha was certainly skilled enough to have her perform the final number of the night. \u201cYou went for that! It had power, it had attack, it had strength,\u201d said Hough. \u201cOverall, great cha cha.\u201d score<\/strong>: 33 out of 40<\/p>\n

\n\tWayne Brady and Witney Carson. <\/strong>the Let’s Make a Deal<\/em> host, who isn’t exactly happy about how age is taking its toll on his increasingly achy knees, got to perform the tango to the classic Bond theme song. Quit the complaining, game show man: your moves hurt so good.<\/em> \u201cThat was first ballroom dance and I was concerned how you would cope. I congratulate you. I thought you coped magnificently,\u201d said Goodman. score<\/strong>: 33 out of 40<\/p>\n

\n\tCharli D’Amelio and Mark Ballas. <\/strong>The social media star should be feeling great after sitting at the top of the leader board for two weeks straight. But it’s not good enough! Every skilled partner choreographed a killer rumba that ended with him drinking a toxic potion and luckily \u201cdying\u201d at the end of the number. Audience members Kourtney Kardashian and hubby Travis Barker seemed to like it! \u201cThree weeks we’ve been watching you dance and three weeks you dance fantastic. lovely feet. lovely legs. It had a beautiful finish,\u201d said Goodman. score<\/strong>: 33 out of 40<\/p>\n

\n

\tBottom two couples were Champion and Burke and Van Amstel and Ladd. Tonioli, Inaba, and Hough voted to save Champion, so it was time for Ladd to go.<\/p>\n

\n

\t\u201cLouie is the best. He was a great teacher and a lot of fun. When you are a legend, you’ve lived a long time. And I’ve had a lot of fun,\u201d said Ladd. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
