Judges comments on Calvin Johnson Jr’s DWTS Season 23 week 9 Waltz: 

Julianne: I loved that you owned that and what I loved so much is your level of commitment to this competition. You come out here and you are a ray of sunshine and then you do a dance like this and you’re smooth and graceful, I feel like this is one of your best dances.

Bruno: Leona Lewis, come on! And you my dear, as always majestic, like a Siberian tiger toying with a little pussy cat. I love the way you handle her, because of the difference in size, to take and balance the music of this song is so hard and you have to go in and out of tempo – and you did it my darling!

Carrie Ann: As Bruno says, I agree, considering the height difference you really have learned to dance as one. I am going to give you a point that I want you to work on because everything matter, that one wasn’t your best musically. It was a little ahead and you weren’t as strongly connected to the music as you usually are. I just wanted to point that out because we are heading in to the finals. But, well done!

Idina: I didn’t see any of that, I was just thinking, my dad taught me everything I know about football. And he always taught me that football players get a bad rap because you have to be really tough, but really graceful, especially a wide receiver. I know now why you are an amazing athlete and an amazing dancer, you have both, and that was really beautiful.

Judges scores: Carrie Ann: 9 Idina: 9 Julianne: 10 Bruno: 9 Total: 37/40 – Vote for Calvin Johnson Jr & Lindsay Arnold at 1-800-868-3403.
