Drew Carey and professional dancer Cheryl Burke: dancing a Quickstep. Drew has been getting ready for his dance tonight. He tweeted, “From 4 1/2 hours of quickstep practice today. Thing is @CherylBurke hates other people’s sweat. Oops. :)”
Judges comments: Len: “First of all let me just say I normally pick people out if they break hold. But this is a special week this performance was zippity doo dah, but the technique was not.” Donny: “It is too bad we start with the quickstep. Tonight I am judging on performance. I do want to pick out one technical thing and I got busted on it. If you put an arm out it has to come from the core.” Bruno: “Aladdin, Aladdin you had too much to do the technique suffered but you deliver great performances. You will be better next week.” Carrie Ann: “What I like is you always bring the fun and sometimes you make a strange face, don’t let us know your concentrating so much.”
