1
00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:04,000
Previously, on The Next Pro, Jenna
Johnson!
2
00:00:05,100 --> 00:00:07,360
This week's theme is chemistry.
3
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,780
Girls, pick a guy who you have the most
chemistry with.
4
00:00:12,040 --> 00:00:14,840
I didn't think I would be somebody that
wouldn't get picked.
5
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:19,260
If I had a choice with the girls, you
would have been my first pick.
6
00:00:19,780 --> 00:00:20,780
Oh!
7
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,540
That was a choice!
8
00:00:24,380 --> 00:00:28,600
That could be. I'm dancing with the
stars tomorrow. Who are you?
9
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:30,040
I'm him.
10
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:36,020
Alan and Mina, you didn't show me enough
skills for Argentine tango.
11
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,060
AJ, you've really got to dig deep.
12
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:43,760
This will be the last dance for Tristan
and Stephanie.
13
00:00:58,089 --> 00:00:59,089
What's up, guys?
14
00:01:00,050 --> 00:01:01,050
G'day.
15
00:01:01,630 --> 00:01:08,030
Welcome back to The Next Pro. Now, let's
once again welcome our judges, Shirley
16
00:01:08,030 --> 00:01:09,190
and Mark Ballard.
17
00:01:10,650 --> 00:01:11,650
Welcome.
18
00:01:12,690 --> 00:01:17,710
Dancers, we started out with 12 of you,
and now just six remain.
19
00:01:18,050 --> 00:01:22,770
You've made it to the halfway point.
Well done. Now that it's top six, if you
20
00:01:22,770 --> 00:01:26,270
make the wrong decision, you could be
going home, and I have to think smart
21
00:01:26,270 --> 00:01:29,640
because... I want to make it till I'm
top one.
22
00:01:29,900 --> 00:01:34,960
From here, we are going to keep putting
the pressure on. It's going to get
23
00:01:34,960 --> 00:01:38,860
harder and harder because you all know
what is on the line here.
24
00:01:39,780 --> 00:01:45,080
Absolutely, Robert. There's very little
separating these dancers. So I'm looking
25
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,000
for unshakable confidence.
26
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,560
That's the hallmark of a brilliant
professional.
27
00:01:50,940 --> 00:01:55,280
Well, Mark, you have competed in the
dancing finals a record.
28
00:01:55,870 --> 00:01:56,950
11 times.
29
00:01:57,210 --> 00:01:59,030
You have felt that pressure.
30
00:01:59,390 --> 00:02:01,850
Any advice for the dancers at this
halfway point?
31
00:02:02,550 --> 00:02:04,670
Yes. Learn to embrace it.
32
00:02:04,910 --> 00:02:06,670
Pressure creates diagnosis.
33
00:02:07,270 --> 00:02:11,610
I've been in the bottom multiple times.
It comes with a lot of pressure. I have
34
00:02:11,610 --> 00:02:15,250
to really own that and grow from it.
That's the only way you can keep moving
35
00:02:15,250 --> 00:02:16,850
forward. Guest judge time.
36
00:02:17,090 --> 00:02:18,090
Are we excited?
37
00:02:18,110 --> 00:02:22,930
She is the 2021 champion of Dancing with
the Stars.
38
00:02:23,690 --> 00:02:27,450
She's an Emmy-nominated choreographer.
It's the Ferrari herself.
39
00:02:27,710 --> 00:02:32,030
Please welcome Daniela Karagas! Let's
go, Danny!
40
00:02:33,190 --> 00:02:36,030
Let's go, Danny!
41
00:03:14,220 --> 00:03:17,380
Acting on your best behavior.
42
00:03:17,900 --> 00:03:21,800
And you're black on Mother Nature.
43
00:03:23,980 --> 00:03:28,980
Everybody wants to rule the world.
44
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:30,820
Come on, Janet!
45
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:39,760
And while the world comes tumbling down,
when they do,
46
00:03:39,820 --> 00:03:42,260
I'll be right behind you.
47
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:07,640
Oh, my God.
48
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:10,480
Three words.
49
00:04:11,060 --> 00:04:12,560
Wow, wow, wow.
50
00:04:12,940 --> 00:04:17,500
How on earth do you approach creating a
dance like that?
51
00:04:17,740 --> 00:04:21,640
I came from the world of competitive
ballroom, but I quickly learned a
52
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,980
routine has to be packed with wow
moments.
53
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,480
It's about doing something no one's ever
seen before.
54
00:04:27,740 --> 00:04:32,560
Wow moments go viral on social media,
and that means lots of votes. We must
55
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,320
always think about the votes.
56
00:04:34,700 --> 00:04:37,440
I want to challenge you all to create
your own wow moment.
57
00:04:37,780 --> 00:04:41,580
That opening number you just saw
included three moves from Dancing with
58
00:04:41,580 --> 00:04:45,200
the Stars that went viral and were
copied by millions of people around the
59
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:51,540
world. Those moves include Val's iconic
knee walks, Whitney's leg lift, and my
60
00:04:51,540 --> 00:04:52,540
air walk.
61
00:04:53,300 --> 00:04:57,240
For your challenge, you need to create a
dance that includes one of these three
62
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:01,980
moves and also includes at least one of
your own unique wow moves.
63
00:05:02,510 --> 00:05:04,930
All while dancing a contemporary style.
64
00:05:06,350 --> 00:05:09,810
It's my first time doing contemporary,
so obviously I'm nervous.
65
00:05:10,030 --> 00:05:12,110
Like, oh my God, how am I going to do
it?
66
00:05:12,470 --> 00:05:17,330
This is not traditional ballroom. Ask
yourselves, what can I create that the
67
00:05:17,330 --> 00:05:20,130
audience has never seen before?
68
00:05:21,130 --> 00:05:25,130
At the end of this challenge, there will
be another elimination.
69
00:05:25,950 --> 00:05:27,670
You've got to make these guys say wow.
70
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,520
And to give you a little bit of
inspiration, I want to take you to a
71
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,960
place that makes me say wow every single
day.
72
00:05:35,340 --> 00:05:36,340
Let's go.
73
00:05:41,340 --> 00:05:41,819
Oh,
74
00:05:41,820 --> 00:05:48,540
my
75
00:05:48,540 --> 00:05:51,740
God. Oh, my God. A rhino.
76
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,800
There's a rhino. Guys, look all the way
in the back. Oh, look at this.
77
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:00,720
Welcome to Australia Zoo.
78
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:02,920
I'm so happy that you guys are here.
79
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:08,720
I hope today I can give you all some
inspiration for this week's challenge.
80
00:06:08,860 --> 00:06:12,700
This is all about wow moments and
there's nothing more wow than our
81
00:06:12,700 --> 00:06:13,700
beautiful wildlife.
82
00:06:13,860 --> 00:06:15,520
So let's meet some animals.
83
00:06:15,860 --> 00:06:16,860
Yeah, let's go.
84
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:20,560
It's crazy.
85
00:06:21,180 --> 00:06:24,420
It doesn't feel like a zoo. It feels
like a nature reserve.
86
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:25,720
I'll see you later.
87
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:26,920
Okay.
88
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,220
The animals are just walking around. I
know we're in Australia, but there's a
89
00:06:31,220 --> 00:06:32,380
lot of animals out and about.
90
00:06:33,420 --> 00:06:35,540
So this big boy is DJ.
91
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,400
He's over two tonnes in weight. He's
massive.
92
00:06:39,620 --> 00:06:42,860
Wow. You can see that undeniable power.
93
00:06:43,620 --> 00:06:47,400
He could be explosive, but he chooses
not to be. You want to come meet him?
94
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:53,080
I'm a very nervous person when it comes
down to animals. Being someone who's
95
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,180
such a control freak, it's a lot.
96
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:56,860
Isn't he just beautiful?
97
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:02,600
So this big boy, he is, believe it or
not, in a wow moment. It's easy to just
98
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:07,380
go crazy, but you've still got to have
that real control and that presence.
99
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,100
DJ, make DJ feel small.
100
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,740
Come over and meet Bondi, the koala.
101
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:17,580
These are one of the most soft and
affectionate creatures you'll ever meet.
102
00:07:17,740 --> 00:07:20,440
And it just reminds you that that is
what touches people's hearts.
103
00:07:20,660 --> 00:07:24,380
So even though you want to go big, you
want to create that wow, don't forget.
104
00:07:24,890 --> 00:07:27,890
About the connection, about the softness
of the dance. Hi.
105
00:07:28,990 --> 00:07:29,990
Hi.
106
00:07:30,470 --> 00:07:31,590
You're beautiful.
107
00:07:32,050 --> 00:07:37,590
Being here at the Australia Zoo, seeing
all of these animals, it's very much re
108
00:07:37,590 --> 00:07:42,510
-centering me. Through this competition,
I've been called out many times, not
109
00:07:42,510 --> 00:07:45,010
just by the judges, but by people in the
house.
110
00:07:45,750 --> 00:07:46,750
Hi.
111
00:07:47,210 --> 00:07:49,010
Today I'm feeling really inspired.
112
00:07:49,330 --> 00:07:50,330
Oh, my God.
113
00:07:50,570 --> 00:07:53,830
I can't wait to bring that out on the
dance floor.
114
00:07:54,300 --> 00:07:56,100
See you soon, guys. Thanks for coming
by.
115
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:11,120
Danielle is an amazing pro on Dancing
with the
116
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:17,100
Stars. We both have a Latin background,
but she creates incredible, wow, viral
117
00:08:17,100 --> 00:08:21,680
moments. I feel so excited because I
always have things to learn. You guys
118
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:22,960
should be so proud of yourselves.
119
00:08:23,500 --> 00:08:27,460
We are officially in the halfway point
of this competition.
120
00:08:27,740 --> 00:08:30,020
How are you feeling about this whole
process?
121
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,260
Nervous. I know, I'm stressed.
122
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:37,880
Because it's like everything that we've
always dreamt of for our entire lives.
123
00:08:38,140 --> 00:08:41,320
For sure. It's such a special and unique
opportunity.
124
00:08:42,039 --> 00:08:43,039
Okay, you guys.
125
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,360
This challenge is about creating a
routine full of wow moments that will
126
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:51,260
make you stand out so much that you
forever will be embedded in someone's
127
00:08:51,260 --> 00:08:56,100
memory. After 34 seasons, the audience
wants to see something new. The more you
128
00:08:56,100 --> 00:08:59,240
wow the audience, the longer you and
your partner stay in the competition.
129
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:03,860
Halfway through the competition, this
could either make you or break you. I
130
00:09:03,860 --> 00:09:08,200
cannot wait to see what you come up
with. I finally am in my wheelhouse of
131
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:12,580
contemporary, and I kind of have that
one up on everybody else.
132
00:09:12,860 --> 00:09:15,300
Now for this challenge, you dance as
couples.
133
00:09:15,700 --> 00:09:19,860
Last time, the girls got to pick their
partners, so this time it's only fair
134
00:09:19,860 --> 00:09:20,900
the guys get to choose.
135
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:27,020
If more than one guy chooses the same
girls, then the girl gets to decide who
136
00:09:27,020 --> 00:09:28,480
she wants to partner up with.
137
00:09:29,860 --> 00:09:32,100
Girls, please line up over here.
138
00:09:33,560 --> 00:09:37,940
Guys, you have to really think who would
be a great partner for these wow
139
00:09:37,940 --> 00:09:39,840
moments. Wet and burning calories.
140
00:09:41,140 --> 00:09:42,140
Okay, guys.
141
00:09:43,340 --> 00:09:48,340
This is what Selena's wheelhouse is. So
she has the best ideas to actually
142
00:09:48,340 --> 00:09:51,800
produce the best routine with the
biggest wow moments.
143
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,900
Please head over to the girl you would
like to partner up with.
144
00:10:12,010 --> 00:10:15,730
None of the boys came to me. Not even my
best friend, Alan.
145
00:10:16,650 --> 00:10:21,270
It's almost like being in elementary
school and being picked last. It stinks.
146
00:10:23,910 --> 00:10:27,010
Not picking Nina. I do feel guilty about
that. I do.
147
00:10:27,610 --> 00:10:33,650
But back in week two, Adele and I had a
fantastic connection dancing together.
148
00:10:33,990 --> 00:10:37,690
And I just picture a beautiful
contemporary routine with her.
149
00:10:39,050 --> 00:10:40,050
Selena.
150
00:10:40,380 --> 00:10:43,740
This is your time to choose who you
would like to partner up with.
151
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,980
You got Eric or AJ.
152
00:10:46,940 --> 00:10:47,940
Okay.
153
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:53,940
I'm so happy I'm with her.
154
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:59,360
I danced with both of you guys and it
was great.
155
00:11:00,660 --> 00:11:06,180
It sucks, but this is a competition.
156
00:11:07,220 --> 00:11:10,240
It's getting down to the wire and I have
to be strategic.
157
00:11:10,740 --> 00:11:13,060
I have to do what's going to be best for
me.
158
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:15,220
I'm going to go with Eric.
159
00:11:15,820 --> 00:11:18,140
I'm so sorry. I feel so bad.
160
00:11:18,500 --> 00:11:19,980
You have to make a decision. That's
fine.
161
00:11:21,580 --> 00:11:26,720
Me and Eric have this wonderful back and
forth in rehearsal.
162
00:11:27,100 --> 00:11:31,840
And when I dance with AJ, he's more of
the idea person and I'm just the
163
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,660
follower. So it's hard.
164
00:11:35,660 --> 00:11:39,960
I thought that we had a good connection,
but the decision's been made for me. I
165
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,980
know I'm a great dancer, but Nina's
never done contemporary before, and
166
00:11:43,980 --> 00:11:48,360
contemporary is out of my comfort zone
in so many ways. I don't know how we're
167
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:49,159
going to get there.
168
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,600
Good luck, and your rehearsals start
now.
169
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:53,580
I'm stressed at this point.
170
00:11:53,860 --> 00:11:55,880
This could be the dance that sends me
home.
171
00:12:04,780 --> 00:12:06,800
I have a really cool idea in the very
beginning.
172
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:08,279
Professor, no.
173
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:09,300
So you did it barefoot?
174
00:12:09,500 --> 00:12:13,060
Yeah. Come on, you've got to be hardcore
to do contemporary.
175
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,840
I know I didn't pick you for that, so.
Okay. I think it kind of all comes full
176
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,760
circle, and I want to do this with you,
and I think we're going to be really
177
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,800
powerful. AJ and I share the floor
together for the team dance.
178
00:12:23,060 --> 00:12:27,680
I chose him to be a part of my team
because he's a fantastic leader, so I'm
179
00:12:27,680 --> 00:12:30,820
excited to be in his lead again. Let's
freaking do it.
180
00:12:31,699 --> 00:12:34,380
You know, I was thinking of that wow
moment.
181
00:12:34,620 --> 00:12:38,020
Your feet are here, actually in front
like this. And I'm going to kind of
182
00:12:38,020 --> 00:12:42,340
use... Do you want to straight the legs?
Because we look like we're cavemen.
183
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:43,440
That's the point.
184
00:12:43,680 --> 00:12:48,680
Okay. Last week was not a good week for
me, being in the bottom two, purely for
185
00:12:48,680 --> 00:12:49,980
a stupid decision I made.
186
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:55,860
We're looking for the next pro. I need
to understand that you understand the
187
00:12:55,860 --> 00:12:58,720
brief. I let people down. I let myself
down.
188
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:00,340
That's not going to happen again.
189
00:13:00,560 --> 00:13:05,620
We should add Daniela's thing. The main
strategy this week is follow the rules.
190
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,340
You hold me and then it's just, yeah.
191
00:13:09,560 --> 00:13:11,020
Yeah. Really, period.
192
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:12,940
We have to wow everyone.
193
00:13:13,300 --> 00:13:15,440
This is going to be something that has
to go viral.
194
00:13:16,420 --> 00:13:19,780
That can be viral. That's cool. I have
done contemporary.
195
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:24,740
I can do tricks, and that's what we're
going to go for. Oh, and it looks ugly.
196
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:29,060
I am a competitive Latvian ballroom
dancer. I have no relation whatsoever
197
00:13:29,060 --> 00:13:30,060
with contemporary.
198
00:13:30,300 --> 00:13:31,300
Just trust me.
199
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:32,360
Don't be afraid.
200
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:36,700
Oh, and I'm scared. I'm scared.
201
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:38,080
Close, close, close, close.
202
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:43,780
Usually in my competitive career, you
don't do tricks and lifts, so it's... A
203
00:13:43,780 --> 00:13:44,679
little bit difficult.
204
00:13:44,680 --> 00:13:45,680
Isn't that a wow moment?
205
00:13:46,020 --> 00:13:49,420
Yeah, especially if I fall and break my
head. You're not going to fall, I swear.
206
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,580
I'm just trying to push through to
impress the judges.
207
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,320
Are you excited? I'm so excited to do
contemporary.
208
00:13:57,580 --> 00:13:58,580
Grab? Yep.
209
00:13:58,820 --> 00:13:59,940
Can I lift you? Yeah.
210
00:14:00,260 --> 00:14:04,120
I am so excited to break out of ballroom
this week, but...
211
00:14:04,430 --> 00:14:05,630
It is a lot of pressure.
212
00:14:05,850 --> 00:14:08,130
Can I actually grab your arm?
213
00:14:08,350 --> 00:14:13,910
Yeah. I just know that I need to deliver
this wow moment because the judges know
214
00:14:13,910 --> 00:14:17,910
contemporary is what I do. Just go like
this and go like that, and I basically
215
00:14:17,910 --> 00:14:19,130
do most of it. Just the lift?
216
00:14:19,330 --> 00:14:24,090
Yep. I feel like I am a wow moment
dancer, so I am going to try to do a
217
00:14:24,090 --> 00:14:27,990
couple of lifts and tricks and make it
jaw-dropping.
218
00:14:28,930 --> 00:14:32,450
That's cool, actually. Yeah. I've never
done contemporary.
219
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:39,380
Sorry. No, no, no, that's fine. It's
very scary not relying on my ballroom
220
00:14:39,380 --> 00:14:40,380
and Latin background.
221
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,840
After we lift, you grab my hips, and
then remember I fall into your arms
222
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:49,300
here. Last week, what we created let me
go out of my comfort zone and do things
223
00:14:49,300 --> 00:14:50,300
that I haven't done before.
224
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,140
We may have found a new front runner
here.
225
00:14:52,340 --> 00:14:53,340
He's a dark horse.
226
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:57,060
With Selena, I know our level of
creativity is on the same wavelength.
227
00:14:57,420 --> 00:15:01,080
As soon as I finished that performance,
I was thinking, I want to do another
228
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:02,080
one.
229
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:07,860
Closer. What animalistic movements can
we get to impress the judges?
230
00:15:08,100 --> 00:15:11,240
Imagine people at parties just like
running at each other. And when you run
231
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,420
and jump on me, you are full on koala
bear.
232
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:18,720
We took a lot of inspiration from the
zoo. This is my kangaroo jump into
233
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:23,580
koala. And you're strong like a rhino.
I'm strong like a rhino. I love this.
234
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:28,120
AJ and I are underestimated because
we're both competitive ballroom dancers.
235
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,900
To make contemporary look like
contemporary, that's our main focus.
236
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:33,540
Silent. Silent.
237
00:15:33,860 --> 00:15:36,100
Silent. Silent and silent.
238
00:15:36,580 --> 00:15:39,420
But little does everybody know, I do
have musical theater experience.
239
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:40,980
You kind of just ghost me.
240
00:15:41,260 --> 00:15:43,280
And then I get kind of, let's say,
upset.
241
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:45,280
They definitely have some similarities.
242
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:47,580
Creating a story. Three, two, one.
243
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:49,960
And I'm not afraid of tricks.
244
00:15:51,790 --> 00:15:53,970
You're taking my oxygen away.
245
00:15:54,470 --> 00:15:57,710
I went a little Python, Griff. You went
full-on Python. There was no little
246
00:15:57,710 --> 00:16:01,850
Python there. Each week, I feel like I'm
getting great comments, but there's
247
00:16:01,850 --> 00:16:03,390
always the but.
248
00:16:04,050 --> 00:16:08,910
AJ, I think international Latin dancers
were a bit staged. Point on two, wink on
249
00:16:08,910 --> 00:16:11,190
one. You've really got to dig deep.
250
00:16:11,430 --> 00:16:16,670
I need to show AJ 2.0. Here's the box.
Get outside the box.
251
00:16:16,990 --> 00:16:17,990
That's stressful.
252
00:16:18,090 --> 00:16:19,210
That would come down to the week.
253
00:16:19,739 --> 00:16:22,740
That's right. Yep, uh-huh. And then all
the way down to the floor, carp the
254
00:16:22,740 --> 00:16:25,860
legs. The only way that I can produce
something that I've never produced
255
00:16:25,860 --> 00:16:29,840
before is to actually put myself in a
position where I don't feel comfortable.
256
00:16:30,100 --> 00:16:33,760
It's my competition to lose, so this is
a tipping point for me.
257
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:39,520
The challenge is showing our wow moment.
I don't want to be the person just
258
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,040
highlights AJ doing a knee walk.
259
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,380
Are you going swimming?
260
00:16:52,940 --> 00:16:57,340
I'm going to go take a bubble bath, add
some salt.
261
00:16:57,560 --> 00:16:59,740
Right now, I think everybody's
exhausted.
262
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:04,500
This competition, as it's getting closer
and closer to the finish line, the
263
00:17:04,500 --> 00:17:08,240
emotions are running really high. You
can see our group getting smaller and
264
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:12,339
smaller, our families leaving the house
little by little. I think we're all
265
00:17:12,339 --> 00:17:13,339
feeling the pressure.
266
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,119
It's a lot to live up to for
contemporary.
267
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:17,560
I don't feel any pressure.
268
00:17:17,660 --> 00:17:21,720
I have no expectations. I've been doing
it for my whole life. I feel the
269
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,660
pressure. I'm exhausted.
270
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:28,520
I know. The pressure has really got to
me too, but we just got to keep
271
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,760
fighting. I think everybody's mentally
drained.
272
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:32,580
Everybody's physically drained.
273
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:37,040
This is just something that I've been
dreaming about since I'm a little girl.
274
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,220
Just sacrificing a lot.
275
00:17:39,460 --> 00:17:42,400
So, you know, being here is still
something that kills.
276
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:43,719
So surreal.
277
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:44,720
Yeah.
278
00:17:47,120 --> 00:17:52,320
Since I was like a kid, I was always
imagining I would be on Dancing with the
279
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,760
Stars. But now I'm doubting myself.
280
00:17:55,360 --> 00:17:57,020
I didn't have a regular childhood.
281
00:17:57,380 --> 00:18:01,080
Everybody went going to the party. I did
not. I went to the dance studio and I
282
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:02,080
practiced.
283
00:18:02,620 --> 00:18:05,540
You're phenomenal in so many ways.
284
00:18:07,180 --> 00:18:10,400
Okay. You know that, right? You have to
believe that.
285
00:18:10,780 --> 00:18:12,240
You have to know your worth.
286
00:18:13,679 --> 00:18:17,700
Because you're born for this. Never
forget that. Thanks.
287
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:29,180
Come
288
00:18:29,180 --> 00:18:36,320
on.
289
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:38,240
Hello.
290
00:18:39,620 --> 00:18:40,620
Hi, Dee.
291
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:44,120
This week is all about wow moments. We
have some cool moves that we created,
292
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:48,920
and we also named them already. I love
that. A wow moment isn't necessarily a
293
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:50,080
trick or a lift.
294
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,840
We're excited to see what happens. Do
you guys mind if I see it? No. It's
295
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:57,660
about taking something and doing it in a
way where no one has seen it done
296
00:18:57,660 --> 00:19:01,140
before. I need them to really be
creative, unique.
297
00:19:01,420 --> 00:19:02,420
Yay!
298
00:19:02,820 --> 00:19:07,240
I just want to be blown away. The
caveman walks were pretty freaking cool.
299
00:19:07,500 --> 00:19:12,370
I love the rawness of it. The thing is,
I would actually keep going in that
300
00:19:12,370 --> 00:19:14,490
direction, make it more of a wow.
301
00:19:14,850 --> 00:19:20,770
Seeing Alan and Adele work together was
really nice, but if they jam-pack too
302
00:19:20,770 --> 00:19:24,710
many lifts and tricks, it can turn a
little bit into a circus. I feel like
303
00:19:24,710 --> 00:19:28,670
they just have to refine it a little bit
more in order for it to have that wow
304
00:19:28,670 --> 00:19:30,150
effect. Beautiful.
305
00:19:31,150 --> 00:19:32,150
Yes!
306
00:19:32,890 --> 00:19:36,130
This move where you jump on him.
307
00:19:37,020 --> 00:19:38,660
And you koala him? Yes!
308
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:43,920
For me, that's a wow moment. My only
note is just give yourself to him. And
309
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,720
you don't think about perfection in that
moment.
310
00:19:45,940 --> 00:19:52,440
The biggest struggle for AJ and Nina is
to get out of perfection. I am so
311
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,560
excited to watch them just break out of
their shell.
312
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,800
The knee walks, the way you guys
incorporated the knee walks, genius.
313
00:20:03,980 --> 00:20:07,320
Love it. What is a moment for you that
you created that's another wow moment?
314
00:20:08,580 --> 00:20:13,140
That's where I'm having a little bit of
trouble. It could be just illness.
315
00:20:14,060 --> 00:20:18,820
I love the way Selena and Eric use
ballet knee walks, but because the
316
00:20:18,820 --> 00:20:23,580
challenge is to do one that I've done in
my routine and create your own, it makes
317
00:20:23,580 --> 00:20:26,940
me a little nervous they don't have
their wow moment yet. I'll see you guys
318
00:20:26,940 --> 00:20:29,020
later. Hopefully they'll find it.
319
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,640
I just want something bigger. It looked
good, and it's simple.
320
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:38,420
I don't want simple. This week's wow
moment is supposed to be wow. It's still
321
00:20:38,420 --> 00:20:41,260
wow. I'm feeling mentally exhausted
right now.
322
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:46,040
There's a piece of me that feels like I
need to show off this week, but me and
323
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,180
Eric are kind of clashing a little bit
on what we want.
324
00:20:49,460 --> 00:20:51,620
Hold it uncomfortably long.
325
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:55,320
I want to make it better and make it
bigger. We have to make it exciting and
326
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,840
make it fun because that's what wow is
all about.
327
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,600
I just want to show the depth of
contemporary because contemporary is so
328
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:05,200
much more than just like, oh, we're
moving slow. Let's try it. Let's see how
329
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:09,460
it looks. Okay. If you can make someone
feel your routine and your dance just by
330
00:21:09,460 --> 00:21:13,700
committing to stillness and silence, I
would say that that's the wow moment,
331
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:19,120
not can I do a backflip while spinning
someone on my finger. Being within
332
00:21:19,120 --> 00:21:23,120
silence is scary, but I feel it.
333
00:21:24,380 --> 00:21:25,600
Let's just finish it.
334
00:21:27,110 --> 00:21:31,170
If the wow moments feel like boring
Latin, we change and we remove them.
335
00:21:31,710 --> 00:21:35,730
I feel like in each week that I've had a
partner, I've been the person doing the
336
00:21:35,730 --> 00:21:40,450
teaching. If there's parts that I don't
look good, please tell me so that I look
337
00:21:40,450 --> 00:21:44,490
stronger. Nina's got a great ear and
dives deep into their moments.
338
00:21:44,770 --> 00:21:49,230
So me giving my trust to her and working
together, for me, it felt new. Being
339
00:21:49,230 --> 00:21:51,890
vulnerable is such a very humbling
experience.
340
00:21:52,330 --> 00:21:56,250
It almost feels too correct for me, like
it's trying to hit.
341
00:21:56,720 --> 00:22:00,720
Exactly. AJ is an amazing choreographer.
He's an amazing dancer.
342
00:22:00,980 --> 00:22:06,620
I just need to lock it in. Yes, but he
needs to open up to his emotions and
343
00:22:06,620 --> 00:22:08,140
really just let go.
344
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:13,580
You want this to be building up? Yeah.
But I'm saying from down to come up. I
345
00:22:13,580 --> 00:22:17,560
know, but if we're going lyric-wise,
it's you build me up.
346
00:22:17,900 --> 00:22:20,000
I want to be the next prime dancer in
the stars.
347
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:21,299
Does that make sense?
348
00:22:21,300 --> 00:22:24,720
No. I've knocked on this door for the
past ten years.
349
00:22:25,820 --> 00:22:26,820
I've given everything.
350
00:22:26,980 --> 00:22:29,720
I just need to lock it in. I just want
it to be right.
351
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:34,460
But at the end of the day, if I can't
deal with this challenge... It's good.
352
00:22:34,780 --> 00:22:35,780
Don't overthink it.
353
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,940
I don't deserve to be a pro on Dancing
With Stars.
354
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:40,880
You OK?
355
00:23:14,420 --> 00:23:15,860
Tired? Yeah.
356
00:23:16,430 --> 00:23:19,930
But all of us are tired, so... All
right, let's just go from the top again.
357
00:23:19,990 --> 00:23:21,330
Mark it. Roll through it.
358
00:23:21,630 --> 00:23:22,630
We fight.
359
00:23:27,030 --> 00:23:31,190
It's getting serious. Everybody wants to
set the bar higher and higher every
360
00:23:31,190 --> 00:23:34,830
week. When you're tired, when your
body's going through so much, and you're
361
00:23:34,830 --> 00:23:39,490
mentally going through so much, doubt
and fears, they kick in harder.
362
00:23:39,690 --> 00:23:42,570
There's one person that's going to go
home, and it can be anyone.
363
00:23:46,580 --> 00:23:47,580
What's up?
364
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:48,960
Are you okay?
365
00:23:52,540 --> 00:23:57,500
Just, like, a lot of stress and
exhaustion, especially when you do the
366
00:23:57,500 --> 00:24:01,840
routine and, like, you just want it.
It's, like, perfect.
367
00:24:02,220 --> 00:24:03,220
Yeah.
368
00:24:03,500 --> 00:24:05,960
Like, years and years of, like, wanting
this.
369
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:08,320
You don't want to go home.
370
00:24:09,220 --> 00:24:10,220
Hey,
371
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:11,320
it's not going to happen.
372
00:24:11,460 --> 00:24:12,399
Stop it.
373
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,440
Don't even think like that. It's not
going to happen.
374
00:24:15,550 --> 00:24:20,370
I put myself under maybe too much
pressure, but it's because I want to
375
00:24:20,370 --> 00:24:22,010
show how much this means to me.
376
00:24:22,230 --> 00:24:27,590
I've sacrificed so much to be here and
do this. I've had to move my wedding.
377
00:24:28,190 --> 00:24:34,210
Like, it's overwhelming when I actually
do think about the lengths I've gone to.
378
00:24:34,530 --> 00:24:38,990
To not achieve what I've given up
everything for would just be so
379
00:24:38,990 --> 00:24:39,990
disappointing.
380
00:24:40,370 --> 00:24:41,370
Breathe.
381
00:24:42,710 --> 00:24:44,330
You put up a great front.
382
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:45,720
But I see you.
383
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:47,440
You're an amazing man.
384
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:50,200
Honestly.
385
00:24:50,820 --> 00:24:55,620
I feel like this is the first time that
AJ's allowed me to be there for him.
386
00:24:55,980 --> 00:24:57,240
Something I would never expect.
387
00:24:57,820 --> 00:25:04,120
It feels really amazing to have AJ let
me in and be vulnerable.
388
00:25:04,900 --> 00:25:07,960
This is the first week where, like,
actually working with somebody and,
389
00:25:07,980 --> 00:25:12,360
like, learning something from... You're
going to be great. You know what I mean?
390
00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:19,660
She let me yeah, I feel like I learned
so much like
391
00:25:19,660 --> 00:25:27,100
Thank
392
00:25:27,100 --> 00:25:29,920
you for saying that
393
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:39,780
Now
394
00:25:39,780 --> 00:25:44,060
I'm getting my pants Tighten up a little
bit because I don't want to slip and
395
00:25:44,060 --> 00:25:46,360
fall. Welcome to Wow Me.
396
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,700
Dancers, welcome back to the dance
floor.
397
00:25:55,760 --> 00:26:00,320
Your challenge was to devise a
contemporary routine that features your
398
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:04,880
own unique wow move and a wow move from
Daniela's routine.
399
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:09,860
Shirley, is there any advice that you
can give our dancers before it's time to
400
00:26:09,860 --> 00:26:10,679
hit the floor?
401
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:15,580
I want to jump up out of my seat for
something I've never seen before or
402
00:26:15,580 --> 00:26:17,860
something that's executed fabulously.
403
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:22,980
Dancers, remember, you'll be dancing in
couples, but tonight you will be judged
404
00:26:22,980 --> 00:26:26,520
individually. One dancer will be going
home.
405
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:32,080
All right, it is now time for our first
couple, AJ and Nina.
406
00:26:35,060 --> 00:26:39,180
They look a little nervous from behind.
I want them to make sure they breathe.
407
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:42,420
There's a lot at stake at this one.
408
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:43,780
We're getting into it now.
409
00:26:44,140 --> 00:26:46,900
It feels weird to only have four of us.
I hate it.
410
00:27:34,120 --> 00:27:35,600
Let's go
411
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,520
You definitely both understood the
assignment.
412
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:30,060
How did you choose your wow moment? From
mistakes and being messy and stupid
413
00:28:30,060 --> 00:28:33,140
in the studio and listening to the
music. Feeling our bodies, yeah. That's
414
00:28:33,140 --> 00:28:37,740
where koala cuddle felt like it hit. The
koala move, it is so fun.
415
00:28:38,020 --> 00:28:42,500
Like, I have not seen that done rotating
before. And that's a huge part of
416
00:28:42,500 --> 00:28:43,500
Dancing with the Stars.
417
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:44,560
It was awesome.
418
00:28:44,900 --> 00:28:48,020
Thank you. Thank you. All right. That
was great.
419
00:28:48,620 --> 00:28:49,940
How was rehearsal together?
420
00:28:50,340 --> 00:28:53,280
I didn't know where this was going to
go. This was the dance style,
421
00:28:53,380 --> 00:28:57,260
contemporary, that really, for me,
hearing the comments about ripping the
422
00:28:57,260 --> 00:29:02,040
rule book up and actually just being so
emotional and open, like I've never done
423
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:03,040
a dance like this before.
424
00:29:03,580 --> 00:29:08,600
Having him let me in, he's really made
me feel valued.
425
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:10,260
I love hearing that.
426
00:29:10,750 --> 00:29:14,670
But for me, the wow moment was there a
simple moment where, Nina, you just fell
427
00:29:14,670 --> 00:29:17,290
backwards, completely trusting AJ.
428
00:29:17,490 --> 00:29:18,850
There was no hesitation.
429
00:29:19,210 --> 00:29:21,250
It was total trust.
430
00:29:21,530 --> 00:29:24,650
So that tells me, like, whatever went on
this week in rehearsal, there's a new
431
00:29:24,650 --> 00:29:26,750
vibe and bond and partnership going on
here.
432
00:29:27,310 --> 00:29:30,070
Actually, I kind of agree with you in
some of those things.
433
00:29:30,450 --> 00:29:30,809
Oh, wow.
434
00:29:30,810 --> 00:29:34,070
We're having a wow moment, darling.
435
00:29:35,150 --> 00:29:38,990
And you didn't just have one wow moment.
You actually had a few there.
436
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,000
Your knee walks are absolutely
fantastic.
437
00:29:42,220 --> 00:29:46,900
I loved the koala move. I might actually
try that myself with my son later.
438
00:29:47,460 --> 00:29:52,220
Shelly, the fan of a koala. I like that.
With you, AG, I think you came out of
439
00:29:52,220 --> 00:29:55,780
your comfort zone today. You took off
your shirt. Your partnering skills were
440
00:29:55,780 --> 00:29:57,360
great. You really did well together.
441
00:29:57,929 --> 00:30:02,490
Nina, let me congratulate you on your
musicality. Some lovely timings and some
442
00:30:02,490 --> 00:30:04,890
lovely senses of freedom. So you
excelled yourself.
443
00:30:05,130 --> 00:30:08,590
So congratulations to both of you. Thank
you so much. Honestly, thank you so
444
00:30:08,590 --> 00:30:09,590
much. Thank you.
445
00:30:10,530 --> 00:30:15,230
For me, when she fell back, it was good,
man. Like, when you do those moves on
446
00:30:15,230 --> 00:30:16,350
the show, they're dangerous.
447
00:30:16,750 --> 00:30:19,550
And it's like... Yeah, I don't know why
I do that.
448
00:30:19,770 --> 00:30:21,550
Yeah, but when you pull them off, that's
what's wow.
449
00:30:22,050 --> 00:30:24,610
Next on stage, it's Alan and Adele.
450
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:30,060
It is a new dance for me. It's a new
style. So I am feeling extremely
451
00:30:30,060 --> 00:30:31,060
nervous.
452
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:35,240
Takes a minute to get used to dancing
barefoot. When I started learning, I
453
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,940
would wear foot undies because we had no
taluses.
454
00:30:38,220 --> 00:30:39,920
So it hurts. It's really painful.
455
00:30:40,180 --> 00:30:41,180
I love you.
456
00:30:43,140 --> 00:30:44,740
I love the power of our fate.
457
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:46,500
Giving contemporary.
458
00:30:55,439 --> 00:30:58,540
Learning how to live when there's no one
around.
459
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:00,800
Life.
460
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,800
You can feel my God because I'm wearing
a bra.
461
00:31:11,820 --> 00:31:15,380
Even with my broken parts, I feel better
now.
462
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:21,120
Look at those feet. If I could crawl in
the mud and give any advice for my
463
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:22,420
younger self.
464
00:31:23,340 --> 00:31:28,700
Find something you can hold on to. Find
someone who'll be there for you.
465
00:31:30,060 --> 00:31:34,020
Cause the glory of the mad is in the
air.
466
00:31:34,380 --> 00:31:37,160
Find somewhere you can come home to.
467
00:31:37,380 --> 00:31:39,940
Find someone that'll die for you.
468
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:42,920
Cause the glory...
469
00:32:14,629 --> 00:32:15,629
Beautiful. Wow.
470
00:32:16,810 --> 00:32:17,810
Yes!
471
00:32:18,650 --> 00:32:21,030
Wow. You two dance so well together.
472
00:32:21,390 --> 00:32:24,610
Thank you. Thank you so much. Can you
tell us, what's your wow move?
473
00:32:24,830 --> 00:32:28,730
There's kind of like a caveman walk that
we do, and one is called the Alan
474
00:32:28,730 --> 00:32:31,870
Copter. Alan, you didn't hit the brief
last week.
475
00:32:32,250 --> 00:32:34,290
You hit it today, though. You hit it
hard today.
476
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:35,920
I love the Alan copter.
477
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:37,160
That was scary.
478
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:38,720
It was really fast.
479
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:42,520
And then for that split second where you
were totally hands-free, she looked like
480
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,560
a hula hoop around your neck. Yeah. And
then just caught her and it stopped on a
481
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:46,880
dime. That's a wow moment.
482
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:51,680
Adele, if this is your first time doing
contemporary ever, wow.
483
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:57,280
Earlier I said that sometimes when the
pressure is really high and that
484
00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,220
pressure creates diamonds, you are a
diamond.
485
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:02,220
Thank you so much.
486
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:07,180
You're beyond a diamond for me. I think
that you are probably one of the best
487
00:33:07,180 --> 00:33:12,720
female dancers I've ever seen in 66
countries of Dancing with the Stars or
488
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,860
Strictly Come Dancing. And you know I'm
not a very praiseworthy person, really.
489
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:21,960
But you, darling, are the real deal.
Thank you so much.
490
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:26,300
Alan, I appreciated what you did as a
partner.
491
00:33:26,620 --> 00:33:30,540
I can see that you are wonderful to
dance with because this girl has got a
492
00:33:30,540 --> 00:33:34,900
tremendous sense of freedom when she
dances. And I couldn't have done it
493
00:33:34,900 --> 00:33:36,740
without him. So thank you so much.
494
00:33:37,420 --> 00:33:40,720
I am so proud of how this came out.
495
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:44,580
The fact that you started with your
caveman walk was brilliant.
496
00:33:44,780 --> 00:33:48,420
And you feel like you've been dancing
together for ages. I love you two
497
00:33:48,420 --> 00:33:51,960
together. Thank you. Thank you so much.
Well done both of you. Yeah.
498
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,860
This one's going to be hard, man.
There's two for two.
499
00:34:00,580 --> 00:34:05,740
Welcome back to The Next Pro. We've got
one dance left for our judges before
500
00:34:05,740 --> 00:34:07,520
they decide who goes home.
501
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:09,600
Next up, it's Eric and Selena.
502
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:17,460
Trusting Eric on this one wasn't an easy
decision because this is something I've
503
00:34:17,460 --> 00:34:20,739
been doing my whole life, and if it's
not good...
504
00:34:21,389 --> 00:34:23,350
I think I'll feel like I failed.
505
00:34:24,750 --> 00:34:29,370
Selina specializes in contemporary, so
I'm expecting something spectacular
506
00:34:29,370 --> 00:34:31,429
here. That's what I'm hoping.
507
00:34:31,650 --> 00:34:33,170
Well, let's see.
508
00:34:58,140 --> 00:35:04,980
Salvation. I lost control from the
stage, from your
509
00:35:04,980 --> 00:35:11,680
face. And you left cold, my love turned
green. And oh, you made
510
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:13,000
me hate myself.
511
00:35:14,140 --> 00:35:21,080
You stole it all, so I wait just to
512
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:22,080
say.
513
00:36:01,570 --> 00:36:02,570
Yeah.
514
00:36:02,930 --> 00:36:03,930
Woo!
515
00:36:04,270 --> 00:36:05,270
Yeah.
516
00:36:05,730 --> 00:36:07,010
Oh, my God.
517
00:36:09,530 --> 00:36:10,530
Okay.
518
00:36:11,070 --> 00:36:12,430
I'm conflicted.
519
00:36:13,670 --> 00:36:16,130
Tell me, what was your wow move?
520
00:36:16,550 --> 00:36:19,270
Um, sometimes the wow is in the silence.
521
00:36:19,870 --> 00:36:24,190
Yeah, that's our wow moment, and I feel
like we kind of built a dance of wow.
522
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:28,300
But in my experience, a silent moment
doesn't mean to just stand still.
523
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:30,400
But it's also open to interpretation.
524
00:36:30,720 --> 00:36:32,420
Well, can I finish my notes, please?
525
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,340
Sure. Thank you, Mark.
526
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,420
We're not at home now. We're in a
professional arena.
527
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:40,280
Let me continue.
528
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:46,840
So, Eric, I would have liked you to have
let yourself go even more than you did.
529
00:36:46,980 --> 00:36:52,620
It was really nice, but is nice good
enough to come across to 25 million on a
530
00:36:52,620 --> 00:36:54,000
TV? I'm not quite sure.
531
00:36:54,730 --> 00:36:59,250
For you, young lady, I had said to Mark
I think she might give Danny a run for
532
00:36:59,250 --> 00:37:01,870
her money, and that didn't quite happen
for me, unfortunately.
533
00:37:02,410 --> 00:37:04,410
That doesn't mean it's not great
dancing.
534
00:37:04,730 --> 00:37:10,030
I appreciate the quality, but as a
contemporary dancer, I expected a little
535
00:37:10,030 --> 00:37:11,030
bit more from you.
536
00:37:11,530 --> 00:37:15,930
For me personally, I love that you both
did the knee walks and passed.
537
00:37:16,250 --> 00:37:17,730
That was in the brief for the wow.
538
00:37:18,270 --> 00:37:22,690
And everything else that I just picked
up on was quality, but the brief was
539
00:37:22,690 --> 00:37:27,930
create a wow moment, right? There wasn't
this, like, presage high lift that's
540
00:37:27,930 --> 00:37:32,210
fun, that's crazy. And Eric, for you,
like, you're kind of a dark horse here,
541
00:37:32,310 --> 00:37:37,090
and I'm intrigued, but I need a little
bit more, right?
542
00:37:37,890 --> 00:37:41,990
You guys look like two pros who've been
dancing contemporary, and your chemistry
543
00:37:41,990 --> 00:37:45,730
is so special, but the challenge was to
have a wow moment.
544
00:37:46,860 --> 00:37:48,200
Well done. Good job. Thank you.
545
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:51,340
There's choices in contemporary, you
know. It's very subjective.
546
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:52,840
Wow is subjective.
547
00:37:53,240 --> 00:37:54,960
I need a cup of coffee and a brandy.
548
00:37:55,220 --> 00:37:56,800
I've got to consider my notes.
549
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:15,520
So far we've seen some incredible
dancers that have certainly wowed me.
550
00:38:16,330 --> 00:38:19,850
Well, one dancer is about to leave the
show forever.
551
00:38:20,930 --> 00:38:24,190
The judges have been in deep discussion.
552
00:38:24,490 --> 00:38:25,870
How's the deliberation gone?
553
00:38:26,310 --> 00:38:29,490
I want to start by saying that you all
did a fantastic job tonight. It's
554
00:38:29,490 --> 00:38:30,870
getting harder as we get smaller.
555
00:38:31,390 --> 00:38:35,130
We've had the hardest deliberation this
season.
556
00:38:36,830 --> 00:38:40,870
Eric and Selena, we loved your dance. We
loved it.
557
00:38:41,270 --> 00:38:43,890
But we do have a fundamental problem.
558
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:48,860
The brief was to deliver wow moments,
right?
559
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:52,380
Both of the other couples did deliver on
the challenge.
560
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:56,620
So we are in a bit of a situation here.
561
00:38:58,140 --> 00:39:03,020
You were aware of the brief. I pulled
Alan up for the brief last week. So I
562
00:39:03,020 --> 00:39:05,320
would like to ask a question to you
both.
563
00:39:05,540 --> 00:39:10,640
Whose idea was it not to go for a
larger-than-life wow moment?
564
00:39:11,580 --> 00:39:14,340
I think I take joint responsibility.
565
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:19,420
I don't think either of us was leading
the choreography.
566
00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:22,340
And how did you feel?
567
00:39:25,540 --> 00:39:26,540
I don't know.
568
00:39:27,020 --> 00:39:29,780
Yeah, I feel like we made an executive
decision.
569
00:39:31,780 --> 00:39:32,880
You're absolutely sure?
570
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:34,800
Yeah.
571
00:39:35,580 --> 00:39:38,340
Then I'm afraid we're going to have to
put both of you in the bottom two.
572
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,440
I see a lot of you guys really upset
here.
573
00:39:49,060 --> 00:39:50,060
This is tough.
574
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:55,720
If you have a challenge, you have to
deliver it. You have to make that the
575
00:39:55,720 --> 00:39:56,720
priority.
576
00:39:57,700 --> 00:40:01,420
Shirley, it has come down to Eric and
Selena.
577
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:05,280
Which dancer must sadly leave the show?
578
00:40:07,260 --> 00:40:11,100
It's with a very, very, very heavy heart
that I say this.
579
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:14,520
This will be the last dance for...
580
00:40:21,750 --> 00:40:23,610
Eric. I'm so sorry.
581
00:40:24,410 --> 00:40:25,850
You're a beautiful dancer.
582
00:40:27,470 --> 00:40:29,510
You had exactly what you said.
583
00:40:29,870 --> 00:40:32,030
Silent, still moment.
584
00:40:32,430 --> 00:40:37,590
Selena, I felt that your choreography
was more difficult, and I feel you were
585
00:40:37,590 --> 00:40:39,610
very, very strong in your execution.
586
00:40:41,910 --> 00:40:45,050
I knew that I was taking a risk.
587
00:40:45,850 --> 00:40:52,030
I enjoyed and I loved every moment of
that routine and I'm proud of it and I
588
00:40:52,030 --> 00:40:53,150
don't regret a single moment.
589
00:40:54,370 --> 00:40:58,670
Eric, yeah, watching your journey has
been an absolute highlight.
590
00:40:58,950 --> 00:41:02,810
I'm happy that I got to take this
opportunity and really grow as a dancer
591
00:41:02,810 --> 00:41:06,810
and a person. I've allowed myself to try
to speak through my dancing and I
592
00:41:06,810 --> 00:41:10,530
couldn't do it without Selena, without
you, without anybody here and all the
593
00:41:10,530 --> 00:41:12,910
judges who I look up to and I
understand.
594
00:41:13,740 --> 00:41:17,300
the decisions that are made, and I
respect it. And this just came down to
595
00:41:17,300 --> 00:41:20,080
technicality, but please keep going.
Really proud of you.
596
00:41:21,060 --> 00:41:22,840
For now, it is goodbye.
597
00:41:23,060 --> 00:41:26,300
So go and join your fellow dancers one
last time.
598
00:41:29,720 --> 00:41:35,020
I absolutely feel beat down right now. I
sent him home doing the thing that I've
599
00:41:35,020 --> 00:41:36,020
been doing my whole life.
600
00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:37,820
I know it hurts me.
601
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:43,960
Suddenly, the ballroom feels a lot more
empty. Just five dancers remain as we
602
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:50,240
find out who will be the next pro. A big
thank you to our fabulous judges, Mark,
603
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:54,180
Shirley, and of course, our guest judge,
Daniela Karagach.
604
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:55,620
I'm Robert Irwin.
605
00:41:55,820 --> 00:41:56,820
Good night.
606
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,120
Next time, it's Whitney Carson.
607
00:42:02,580 --> 00:42:07,400
It's time for you to tackle the most
fundamental skill, teaching an amateur.
608
00:42:07,820 --> 00:42:11,260
Each of you will be dancing with fans of
Dancing with the Stars.
609
00:42:11,620 --> 00:42:14,280
What did I tell you about your left
foot? Adele is a drag.
610
00:42:14,500 --> 00:42:18,620
One more time. Okay. Selena could have
been a military instructor. We're going
611
00:42:18,620 --> 00:42:19,980
to keep drilling this again.
612
00:42:20,420 --> 00:42:23,220
Who has the knowledge to teach under the
pressure?
613
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,680
Quick, quick. We should have maybe
slowed down.
614
00:42:26,220 --> 00:42:30,140
If you cannot teach an amateur, you
should not be on the show.
