Do we know this is definitely for Zendaya/Val dance or are we just guessing because they are in one of pictures rehearsing quickstep?

Bonkers Mark's been in a cupboard all season. Sounds like we might finally see him this week
I'd say thats pretty much guaranteed for 2nd dance.

Oh Yes definitely time & sure to annoy some at puredwts as they were saying it would/should be Zendaya!!
just hope Zen/Val not last though or it will just give their haters more to complain about.

They will be mad either way so whatever . And its about time she closes the show again...Plus going 1st is not necessarily a disadvantage at this point of the competition.
Z went 1st last week and still topped the leaderboard. Not to mention that in week 3 & 7 she went last but didn't top the leaderboard so at this stage, it doesn't really mean anything.

Think for Zen/Val going on early maybe even helps as younger fans will see dance & maybe vote more then??

I've just had look at puredwts & they've revised order since announcing Kellie/Derek 1st to put Zen/Val last - says it all to me that does!!

Are the judges all on happy pills tonight - over-scoring everything so far with exception of Ingo that was pretty fair.

very generous, 2 of them are undeserved (Aly and Jacoby )
Kellie and Z had 30s worthy performance earlier in this season, WTH is this ???
A perfect score basically means nothing at this point !!!

And C.A does the most, she needs to sit down.

Kellie & Derek were nearest to 30 for me but as usual Kellie did some amazing lines & lifts but most flicks were done by Derek & at one point she was just walking around while he did intricate steps - definitely not as good as Zen/Val's AT.

I suspect high scoring is to do to Ingo what was done to Andy, they dont want him in final!!

I think Kellie deserved a 30 for her AT. Her best performance I think so far. Her flamenco...not so much. Derek was the star of the routine and not her. I guess the judges are making up for last week. Was it me or during the Flamenco did Kellie have a look of terror on her face? She seemed so scared.

Jacoby's AT was mostly lifts. Compared to all the ladies his footwork was better but not 30 worthy. His lindy was fun...but still a little messy. Generally overscored but I'm sure they want him in the final. The unexpected shock will be when they get real then jump all over him for his footwork next week. Oh and his butt stills sticks out...I guess because Karina is so much shorter than him?

Aly's Rumba...was so not worthy of a 30 it wasn't even funny. I just wasn't executed that well and I felt no real emotion after watching it. Afro Jazz was...good...but she got out of synch with Mark..but that was not part of the agenda so they ignored it.

Ingo - his position on the leaderboard is correct for both dances. 9's were generous but I think that was so he could go out on a high note tmrw.

Zendaya - QS - Not their best but definately not worthyof an 8. I wonder if the producers picked that music...because if that was the music they were given what else could they do with that?...it was soo fast. The one good think about their QS is that I LOVED the idea & concept behind the routine!!!! Very unique & different so props to Val for that. I hope Val thinks creatively when putting together their freestyle.

They killed Hip Hop so 30 was deserved. The agenda for tonight was clear....low ball them on the QS to erase the complaints that it's unfair that she got hip hop.

yep I pretty much agree with everything.
- Kellie deserved 30 for that AT.
-Valdaya QS wasn't that good but didnt deserve 8s imo; it too fast and had a crappy music.However I loved , loved their Hip Hop; My favorite routine of the night . I think that Val was so scared that the judges were going to underscore them with their hip hop that he put too much content ....it was too fast and I noticed lack of body contact many times during that dance.
-Aly was vastly overscored tonight, I just dont understand why the judges overscore her too much, I just dont get it . Yes she has improved , but she is still not on Kellie and Z's level.
-Dont even get me started on Jacoby.

It just looked like the judges were making up for the lack of 30s tonight. The only dances that deserved a perfect score were Kellie AT and Z hip hop.

Derek ........No ..... please put your shirt on....smh...WTH was he wearing in that Flamenco routine ? Kellie looked scared in that dance.

Aly and Mark Afro Jazz routine...I found it a bit offensive but then again does anyone expect subtlety from Mark ?

Ingo is going home tomorrow and Z is going to be in jeopardy tomorrow.

I really like Aly she seems like a sweet girl but she may be one of the most overrated celeb in this show since Maria and Ricky.....

For the 1st time this season, I think that Val failed on the choreography, music, costuming with that QS. I hate to say this but it was my least favourite dance of them during this season . And I have loved all of their dances and didnt even think that I would ever see them having a bad day lol.
Z is very capable of doing an excellent QS, I just dont understand how hectic it was and blame it mostly on the choreography and the concept.What was he thinking . I just hope that next week they come out with a bang and produce a kick ass freestyle if not shock horror Z might not even come 2nd and that is not an option !!!

Weird night tonight, too many 10s and lot of overscoring going on ...
How come no one mentionned how Aly's hips were not moving in that rumba Where does the 10s come from and why ???

- Kellie and Derek had the best night imo and I predict that they are going to have an encore tomorrow with their AT which is well deserved imo.

jacoby was very overscored in both dances...

And is Ingo still in the show


I must say that I loved Z and Jacoby video packages the most .

ramblings - part 1

Kellie and Derek - AT
Struggled to see Kellie in the red on red. Loved the sillouette dancing at the beginning. Great. Tons of content. Perfect lines and shapes. Another dodgy wig! 10

Ingo and Kym - Samba (gulp!)
Not as bad as I feared - seen much worse male celeb sambas. Funny song for a samba. That said, not a whole heap of samba steps, hips or bounce from Ingo, but he partnered Kym well and not embarrassing. 7

Aly and Mark - Rumba
Again - struggling to see in the darkness! Good dress (low shoes - wonder why?). Very nice with some beautiful lines. She's improved at finishing her arms. I wasn't totally convinced by the storytelling, but she's very young, so impressive all the same. 9

Jacoby and Karina - AT
I wish he wouldn't talk about not getting 10s. So, the mystery dance is revealed! Again. Darkness. I really couldn't see Jacoby! Loved the music and thought this was his best performance. Too many lifts which meant not so much dancing ..... Karina was fantastic. 9 (but not as good as Aly imo)

Zendaya and Val - QS
Very energetic and aggressive and messy. Frame was good (I think!) but lost something with her dancing in flats. Feet not completely in sync. Feel a bit cheated in the sense that this is the one and only dance done in close hold throughout and I'd have liked to see how she coped with a 'proper' ballroom dance. It was fun, fast and furious, but I honestly still don't know if she's a good ballroom dancer. 8

part 2

Kellie and Derek - Flamenco
I have no idea what to look for but this seemed good to me. (Derek's 'outfit' was horrid, Kellie's dress was lovely). Needed a bit more aggression in Kellie's body and face. Beautiful shaping. Lift at the end was fab. 9

Ingo and Kym - Charleston
Aww, Ingo and his family seem lovely . Honestly thought he would do really well with this, but I was underwhelmed . Maybe two dances is too much for his frazzled brain at this point (and who could blame him). Looked like he forgot his steps, I didn't see any swivel in his footwork and it didn't quite flow but they had fun. Oh, well. 7

Aly and Mark - Afro Jazz (Yikes!)
Good to be reminded of what Aly's achieved through hard work in her real life - she really has that athlete's determination and focus . Oh goodness - the costumes alone!!! (Tom: I almost wore that today! ). How on earth can they judge that routine?!! Er, energetic. Committed. Co-ordinated. Ummm. Errrr! A 9?

Jacoby and Karina - Lindyhop. I have high expectations....
Dance style really suited him and I thought his footwork was lighter and quicker than we've seen from him before. Great at the performance side of it as always. He moves really well for a giant! 9

Zendaya and Val - Hipperty hopperty
Her mum and dad seem nice. 6' 4". Wow! That's one tall mommy! She was obviously in her element and Val did okay too . (I could have done without his droopy pants!). Again. Um. Dunno. I like that it wasn't too overcooked or try-hard. All I can say is, I wasn't blown away, but she looked very at ease and at home. 9? 10?



Best overall for me this week was Kellie.
Not my favourite week for Zendaya, but she has to be a shoo in for the final (and probably the title ).
Aly and Jacoby both very good.
Ingo. He's grown on me but it would be a bit tragic if he reached the final over any of the others.
