On tonight’s performance show of Dancing With the Stars, each of the couples had to dance 3 dance routines. this week, one pair will go home and the other three will advance to next week’s finals. It’s a fantastic season and I can’t wait o see all of them!
Here’s what happened with last night’s performances:

Judges’ Scores

| Style | My Review | Inaba | Goodman | Tonioli | Total |
| Tango | Donny Osmond & Kym Johnson – Sadly, this routine seemed awkward and poorly executed to me. Donny just isn’t the smoldering romantic type. He was more believable as the romantic when he and judge Bruno Tonioli were joking around. I hope his next dance is stronger! |

| Viennese Waltz | Joanna Krupa & Derek Hough – It was beautiful, graceful and flowing, but she did seem to lift both feet off the ground once. The judges didn’t catch it, though. |

| Rumba | Kelly Osbourne & Louis van Amstel – I thought it was really great! She has certainly come along way this season! She even did a really good solo within it. |

| Waltz | Mya & Dmitry Chaplin – There was a very definite lift in this one, but it was absolute, floating perfection. I guess lifts were allowed tonight. They didn’t mention it, though. |

| Samba | Donny Osmond & Kym Johnson - It was fun to see them dance to one of Donny’s 70s hits, One Bad Apple! He did a really good job with it and seemed to be having a lot of fun. I don’t know if it’s enough to overcome the last dance, though. |

| Quickstep | Kelly Osbourne & Louis van Amstel – This is one of the very toughest styles of ballroom dance. She lost her footing one time, but instantly regained it. I thought she did a great job! |
