Round of 18 (or "How the Hollywood Squares Broke the Bank")
June 17


Last week, Paris & Tony got an all-expenses paid trip...to their own hometown. Loserville was in the cards for these 2. This week, the top 18 will get some more routines. a one-way ticket back home will spell danger is they don't act right. So let's start the show, shall we?

Up first, Randi & Evan doing a jive to "Shake Your Tailfeather" by Ray Charles. It was faster with great spins & lifts.

What Mary said: It fell a little short for me.
What I said: I think they overused it a bit.

Before we get to our next couple, Lil' C joins the motley crew known as Nigel & Mary. Now, Melissa & Ade doing a Sonya Tayeh jazz routine to "24 Hours" by Terry Poison. They took flight with aggression and authority.

What Nigel said: They are fabulous.
What I said: They went the non-conservative route and it paid off!

Next up, Caitlyn & Jason doing a Shane Sparks hip-hop routine to "Missin' You" by Trey Songz. They had fun with it and made the dance so lovely.

What Lil' C said: It left the routine perplexed.
What I said: It seems some mistakes were made here.

Going up next, Janette & Brandon going back in time to do a disco number to “Loving Is Really My Game” by Brainstorm. It had some lifts & splts than a normal bowling alley.

What NIgel said: It was the best routine ever.
What I said: Boy, did they kill it!

And it'll be Asuka & Vittolo's turn to take the 1-2-3 in the waltz as they dance to "Dreams Are More Precious" by Enya. They had raw emotion all throughout the routine.

What Mary said: I loved the honest performance.
What I said: It was so inspirational.

Next up, Kayla & Max jazz it up to "Hot Like Wow" by Nadia Oh. The concept was to see who would be controlling the throne. Play nice, people! In the end, Max would take it despite having to dance together.

What Nigel said: I'm so happy Brian's back with the show.
What I said: What turned out was a welcome back party from a long absence, thanks to Brian Friedman.

Here's a contemporary routine done by Karla & Johnathan. The choreographer is Stacey Tookie from the Canadian version of the show. The song is "Falling Slowly" by the Frames, and the piece involves a couple going through the trials in life as you see here.

What Nigel said: There were no false moves.
What I said: This was a story brought to life.

Now up, Jeanine & Phillip doing a tango done by Tony Meredith. The song is "Violeno!" and it was not violent trying to keep up the holds.

What Mary said: I give them an A-plus for attitude, but a C minus for the technique.
What I said: I give a B for their efforts.

And finally, Ashley & Kupono doing hip-hop to "Imma Be" by the Black Eyed Peas. (that rhymes, huh?) It even had a shadow as a 3rd person. What is going on here?

What Lil' C said: Kupono struggled.
What I said: Maybe the shadow didn't do them justice.

Well, that's about it. Hip-hop wasn't a good night for 2 couples, and it could obviously mean the bottom 4 and more importantly, elimination tomorrow night. Will that happen? Find out together. Good night.
