Week 2: Picking Somebody Else's Nose
March 24
Week 2 begins on DWTS. The stars have decided to pick the dances themselves, but the same rules go as is. Also, 2 stars will be gone. You'll see who it is as the show begins.

To kick it off, Drew & Cheryl doing a jive to "You Can't Sit Down" by The Dovells. Drew rocked the mic at first and later, he took off his suit jacket to turn up the intensity. Now the judges cool off. Len said it had a lot of jive content, Bruno said it got the crowd going and Carrie Ann said it had a great spring in his step. Step to this!

CARRIE ANN: 7 LEN: 7 BRUNO: 7
Total Score: 21

Danica & Val will now do a samba to "All Nite (Don't Stop)" by Janet Jackson. Danica already got it started with a slow 1/2 split and teh sama roll came into play. Now we roll over to the judges. Bruno said it was not quite tangy and Carrie Ann said she dominated that samba. Will she dominate the lead? Let's find out.

CARRIE ANN: 8 LEN: 8 BRUNO: 8
Total Score: 24

Billy Dee & Emma dance a tango to the theme from the video game "Spy Hunter." It took all 3 girls to tango with Billy Dee, but Emma split the 2 women up. Things were falling apart, but the other 2 joined up to the end. On to the judges. Carrie Ann said he has hip issues, Len said it was like ivy and Bruno said he wanted a stylish, minimal approach. Now apporaching: The scoreboard.

CARRIE ANN: 5 LEN: 5 BRUNO: 5
Total Score: 15

Next, Meryl & Maks doing swing to "Big & Bad" by Big Bad Voodoo Daddy. They seem to have started it out in the press box and took it falls count anywhere to the floor. Meryl later hopped over Maks and they finished crashed on teh floor. Now the judges will make up the mess. Len said she was swinging, Bruno said it was as swinging acrobatic extravaganza and Carrie Ann said she has Maks working his butt off. Get the numbers to work!

CARRIE ANN: 8 LEN: 9 BRUNO: 8
Total Score: 25

Next, Diana & Henry doing a cha-cha to Move Your Feet" by Junior Senior. Sadly, they got eliminated this very instant right before this dance, but for the heck of it, they decide to dance. After all this insansity, we move on.

Next couple to take the floor is Candace & Mark doing a rumba to "Say Something" by A Great Big World w/Christina Aguilera. Candace did a foot circle and by teh end, they did a little drag. Now we drag race to the judges. Carrie Ann said it was a little too contemporary, Len said it was the biggest problem and Bruno said her emotional depth is focused. Focus on this!

CARRIE ANN: 7 LEN: 7 BRUNO: 7
Total Score: 21

Moving right along, Amy & Derek doing swing to "Swing Set" by Ani DiFranco. Amy came out from behind teh curtian and Derek joined when it rose. She later did a split and after twisting by both, they did arm work. They even di a protractor move. Both did arm work and ended with a flip split. Now we split to the judges. Len said she used every nuiance, Bruno said it was witty and Carrie Ann said it was synchronized. Synchonize your watches for this....

CARRIE ANN: 8 LEN: 8 BRUNO: 8
Total Score: 24

Let's continue with James & Peta doing a salsa to "Follow The Leader" by Wisin & Yandel w/Jennifer Lopez. Peta did a split at the halfway point and both went into the dance floor. James took the buttons off his shirt and both did arm work. Now we hang around with the judges. Bruno said he's coming out of his shell, Carrie Ann said he's so glad to choose it and Len said it was full of attack. Score check!

CARRIE ANN: 9 LEN: 8 BRUNO: 8
Total Score: 25

Charlie & Sharna will tango to "Addicted to You" by Avicii. While Charlie was sitting on the throne, Sharna stood up dancing. After this enchanting one, we check in with the judges. Carrie Ann said the power came from her, Len said he couldn't break hold and Bruno likes it when he's bad. He's something else you'll like.

CARRIE ANN: 9 LEN: 7 BRUNO: 9
Total Score: 25

Nene & Tony will jive to "Do My Thing" by Estelle w/ Janelle Monae. It was bangin' at first, but it was all good. On to the judges. Len said it was a cute routine, Bruno said she does it beautifully and Carrie Ann said it was really fun to watch. Here are the numbers:

CARRIE ANN: 7 LEN: 7 BRUNO: 7
Total Score: 21

Here's Sean & Karina doing a salsa to "Dance Bailalo" by Kat Deluna. They danced behind teh troupe in the band area and Sean jumped to the floor. Karina did a squat flipover and both did arm work. By the end, she flipped to get on one knee. Now we rise to to the judges. Bruno said he's teh wolf of DWTS, Carrie Ann said she's a little worried and Len said it was much better. How better? Watch.

CARRIE ANN: 7 LEN: 7 BRUNO: 7
Total Score: 21

And finally, Cody & Witney doing a tango to "Yeah 3x" by Chris Brown. They had to control it and control, they did. Now we go to the judges. Carrie Ann loved the way he stylized it, Len said it would've been more compact and Bruno said it was like watching Edward in Twilight. Watch this.

CARRIE ANN: 7 LEN: 7 BRUNO: 8
Total Score: 22

So after all this dancing, the final check goes like this: 25s go to the ice dancing team and James, Danica & Amy have 24, Cody at 22, Drew, Nene and Sean and Candace at 21 and Billy Dee dead last once again at 15. Did they let him go?.......Nope. Sean & Karina are out. 2 couples gone in one night, but next week begins the Most Memorable Year week. See how far your memories of the star would go. Bye everyone.
