00:00:00Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to get through this thing called, like, electric word, life, it means forever, and that's a mighty long time, but I'm here to tell you, there's something else.
00:00:18So when you call up that shrink in Beverly Hills, you know the one who won't talk to everybody all night, instead of asking how much of the time to say, answer very much of your mind, baby, just in this life, you think they're much higher than the afterword, this life, you know, and if the elevator tries to break them down, I'm crazy, but I have no idea.
00:00:48Oh!
00:01:18Oh!
00:01:19Oh!
00:01:21Oh!
00:01:22Please welcome your stars.
00:01:32Please welcome your stars.
00:02:02Please welcome your hosts, Alfonso Rivero and Julianne Hough.
00:02:32Live from Hollywood, it's Prince Night for the semi-finals on Dancing with the Stars.
00:02:57Oh, we're going crazy for that opening number choreographed by Lu'am.
00:03:18Oh, yeah.
00:03:20Welcome to the semi-finals and keep it going for our six semi-finalists.
00:03:25Tonight, they've got to perform two dances to earn a place in next week's season finale
00:03:30where they will compete for our Len Goodman Mirror Bob Trophy.
00:03:34That's right.
00:03:36And because it's Prince Night, the dances will be performed to the best-loved songs of this musical genius.
00:03:43Voting is open right now and is available to the U.S., its territories, and Canada at ABC.com.
00:03:48Plus, subscribers on participating U.S. wireless phone carriers can text the first name of their favorite star to the number 21523.
00:03:56Message and data rates may apply.
00:03:58You get 10 votes per couple per voting method.
00:04:01All right.
00:04:01Now, before we get into the competition,
00:04:04let's take a look at the phenomenal career of the legendary artists we're celebrating tonight.
00:04:09Prince didn't just play music, he embodied it.
00:04:33Every note he hit, every step he took, blurred the line between musician and dancer.
00:04:48His music fused as many styles as his dance moves.
00:04:52Funk met ballet, rock met contemporary, and movement became liberation.
00:04:58Prince showed us that music isn't just something you hear, it's something you feel.
00:05:03And tonight, we dance in his honor.
00:05:11What a remarkable showman.
00:05:17Now, we're presenting the songs of Prince in order.
00:05:20So we'll start with a Foxtrot to his first major hit single in 1979, I Wanna Be Your Lover.
00:05:27It's film and TV actress Elaine Hendrix and Alan Burstead.
00:05:33Two weeks ago, you couldn't even dance, and here you are, giving it to the Fly Girl Moves.
00:05:39Well done.
00:05:40Rise!
00:05:41I wasn't sure if I would make it with nines.
00:05:44So I am beside myself that I am in the semifinals.
00:05:49Elaine, we made it.
00:05:50We made it to the semifinals.
00:05:52It's something that I wanted and I've worked so hard for.
00:05:55I'm just elated.
00:05:57I'm so proud of you.
00:05:58Yeah, thanks.
00:05:59It is Prince Night, which is iconic.
00:06:01I grew up on Prince, and he was just such a showman.
00:06:05He knew how to command the stage.
00:06:07All eyes were on him, and that's what we've got to do.
00:06:10Exactly.
00:06:11So I like the idea of stepping into those shoes.
00:06:13We've got to get these tens.
00:06:14We've got to make it into the finale.
00:06:16Yeah, I want that.
00:06:17Let's go.
00:06:18A little bit more like Prince.
00:06:20Elaine and I are going to work hard on everything for this fox rod.
00:06:22The technique, the footwork.
00:06:24Elaine's been getting a lot of notes about her shoulders being up in frame.
00:06:27Boom, yeah, shoulders down.
00:06:28And that's from her pre-existing injuries.
00:06:31So if we raise Elaine's chest, hopefully that puts the shoulders down.
00:06:35Have strong arms.
00:06:36Connect them to your back.
00:06:38This performance has to be worthy of Prince, and that is no easy task.
00:06:43I have to float and fight at the same time.
00:06:47I'm nice.
00:06:48Because this is our chance to really bring those scores up and to show exactly what we can do.
00:06:53Good job.
00:06:54That's a semi-finalist.
00:06:57Dancing the Foxtrot with her partner Alan Burstyn, it's Elaine Hendricks.
00:07:01I ain't got no money.
00:07:15I ain't got those avocats you ain't got.
00:07:19It's kind of funny.
00:07:21But there always seems to let you down.
00:07:27And I need your love for you, oh.
00:07:32And that's all I'm living for, yeah.
00:07:36I'm gonna picture your fate.
00:07:39All I ever wanted to do
00:07:43I wanna be your lover
00:07:45I wanna be the only one that makes you come
00:07:50I wanna be your lover
00:07:53I wanna turn you up, turn you up
00:07:58All my love, make you shout
00:08:00I wanna be the only one you come
00:08:06Oh, yeah
00:08:08Oh, Alan and Elaine with a Foxtrot 2
00:08:17I Wanna Be Your Lover
00:08:19Oh, everybody's loving that one
00:08:24So good
00:08:26I think you're pretty happy about that
00:08:32All right
00:08:35All right, let's hear what the judges have to say
00:08:37Carrie Ann, you're up
00:08:38Okay, well, Elaine, welcome to the semifinals
00:08:41You deserve this spot so much
00:08:44That was a...
00:08:45Feel this audience there going wild for you
00:08:48You are sophisticated, smooth, strong
00:08:51It just... it's solid, okay?
00:08:54But tonight we are looking to see who's gonna make it to the finale, right?
00:08:58So I'm just... nothing was wrong with the dance
00:09:01I just wanna say I would still love this you just push a little
00:09:04Like I wanna see the edges a little bit more
00:09:05Like just push to the edge
00:09:07I feel like you make it look so easy
00:09:09I wanna feel like maybe it's not that easy for y'all
00:09:12That makes sense
00:09:12Okay, all right
00:09:13I know, it's a challenge
00:09:13Derek, Derek
00:09:15Lelaine, you're lovely
00:09:18That was beautiful
00:09:19Truly incredible Foxtrot
00:09:21The way you articulate those feet
00:09:25To get that beautiful rise and fall
00:09:27With that control
00:09:27That is not easy
00:09:28I appreciate that
00:09:29I love that
00:09:29However, I will echo Carrie Ann's statement a little bit
00:09:32Tonight is the semifinal
00:09:32Tonight is about fighting to get into the final
00:09:34Who is gonna make it into there?
00:09:36So for this next...
00:09:37This is your first dance for tonight
00:09:38So that second dance
00:09:39We wanna see a little bit more fight, all right?
00:09:41But that was a beautiful
00:09:42Fantastic
00:09:43All right, Bruno
00:09:43My darling
00:09:45Radiant as ever
00:09:47And you were very, very flirty tonight as well, were you?
00:09:50She was all going in the hole with Alan
00:09:53I'm gonna give it, maybe not
00:09:55You have to make up your mind
00:09:57It's starting early
00:09:57No, but I love...
00:09:58Listen
00:09:59Dancing is like acting
00:10:01It's character-driven
00:10:02And you always know exactly
00:10:04As I said before
00:10:04How to sell it
00:10:05Semi-finals
00:10:06We have to push it a bit harder
00:10:08They're right

00:13:53Closing in some
00:13:55But if it's Saturday night

00:14:45And that song is not about a car
00:14:47That's right!
00:14:50Oh, that was hot
00:14:51That was hot
00:14:53And love the red to boot
00:14:55Alright, Derek, take it away

00:15:03I always wanted to do that
00:15:07No, truly
00:15:09You know, listen
00:15:09Alex, I really think
00:15:10That you have the potential
00:15:11To go all the way
00:15:12In this competition
00:15:14All the way to the end
00:15:15Your improvement
00:15:16Has been fantastic
00:15:17Beautiful lines
00:15:18Well done
00:15:19Gorgeous
00:15:20Alright
00:15:20Bruno
00:15:21Excuse me
00:15:23The red Goddess
00:15:24I agree
00:15:26The shapes
00:15:27The lines
00:15:28The body work
00:15:30Top notch
00:15:31Now
00:15:32Semi-finals
00:15:35There was a little sequence
00:15:38On Ganchos
00:15:38That could have been
00:15:39A little bit sharper
00:15:40I could saw it in your face
00:15:42Actually
00:15:42When you missed it
00:15:44And you know
00:15:45I am honest
00:15:46But I have to say
00:15:47My darling
00:15:48You are the most improved
00:15:49You're like a gem
00:15:50That gets brighter
00:15:51And brighter

00:16:02Of your performance
00:16:03You're really blossoming
00:16:07In this dance
00:16:09It was fantastic
00:16:10But your shoulders came up
00:16:11And it looked like
00:16:12You were gripping
00:16:12On to the dance
00:16:13As opposed to being
00:16:14In control of the dance
00:16:15So take a deep breath
00:16:16For the next one
00:16:16Come back stronger
00:16:17Alright

00:18:17Of Mormon Wives
00:18:18Here's Whitney Leavitt
00:18:20And her partner
00:18:21Mark Ballas
00:18:22The way you stuck
00:18:27That foot
00:18:27Thank you girl
00:18:28You were sticking
00:18:29That landing
00:18:29And you nailed it
00:18:30Woo!
00:18:31Yay!
00:18:34That Argentine tango
00:18:36Will stick with me
00:18:37Forever
00:18:37And now
00:18:37We have made it
00:18:38To the semi-finals
00:18:39Like I just
00:18:40I can't believe it
00:18:41Semi-finals
00:18:43Oh my god
00:18:44I didn't think
00:18:46That I'd make it
00:18:46This far
00:18:47What a cool night
00:18:48Prince night
00:18:48And we're dancing
00:18:49It's 1999
00:18:50Prince was
00:18:51Such a standout
00:18:52And he dances
00:18:53Amazing
00:18:54Oh my god yeah
00:18:55It was eccentric
00:18:55It was loud
00:18:56It was exciting
00:18:57It was high energy
00:18:58And we're gonna bring
00:18:59That into this dance
00:19:01It's a really important
00:19:02Dance
00:19:02But we gotta have fun
00:19:03At the same time
00:19:03So let's party
00:19:04Like it's 1999
00:19:05Hell yeah
00:19:06Alright
00:19:07Don't know bounce
00:19:09Look the cha-cha
00:19:10Is meant to be fun
00:19:11Sassy, sexy, wild
00:19:12But you have to be
00:19:13In control
00:19:14Nope
00:19:15Of the movement
00:19:15So it's a difficult
00:19:16Dance to do
00:19:17At a high level
00:19:18Getting tired already?
00:19:19No
00:19:19Look when Prince performs
00:19:21He makes it look so easy
00:19:22So effortless
00:19:23So cool
00:19:24You hate that
00:19:25I hate that
00:19:25But it's hard for me
00:19:26To not be so stiff
00:19:27I know but like
00:19:29The arms
00:19:30Every single person
00:19:31In this competition
00:19:32Is working so hard
00:19:34And I'm feeling it
00:19:35More than ever
00:19:35That everyone
00:19:36Is just stepping it up
00:19:37So this dance
00:19:38Has to be
00:19:39Perfect
00:19:40Wow
00:19:41Look at that
00:19:43Dancing the cha-cha
00:19:47With her partner
00:19:48Mark Ballas

00:19:50I was dreaming
00:20:01While I wrote this
00:20:02So sue me
00:20:03If I go too fast
00:20:05Life is just a party
00:20:10And party's what it meant to last

00:20:44Nineteen
00:20:45Nineteen
00:20:45I don't know
00:20:46Hey
00:20:54Party
00:20:55Party
00:20:59You know I'm dying in jail
00:21:02With their cha-cha
00:21:11The nineteen ninety-nine
00:21:13All the entire ballroom
00:21:16Is on their feet
00:21:16Oh yeah
00:21:18Come on you two
00:21:22Party in the night
00:21:25Come on now
00:21:27Okay
00:21:28Bruno take away
00:21:30That was with his stars
00:21:31The best party in America
00:21:33And you throw it
00:21:34With that saucy
00:21:37Stunner of a cha-cha-cha
00:21:39Jokes apart
00:21:40The content
00:21:41Let me start there
00:21:43Everything that you wanted
00:21:45From a cha-cha-cha
00:21:45Was there
00:21:46The execution
00:21:48The precision
00:21:49The placement
00:21:51The level of difficulty
00:21:53Incredible
00:21:54And you did it
00:21:55Stunningly well
00:21:57Thank you
00:21:57Alright carry in
00:21:59Good job
00:21:59Once again
00:22:02A wonderful dance
00:22:03I'm gonna say
00:22:04This is what
00:22:05Stood out to me
00:22:06At times
00:22:07I felt that
00:22:07The technique
00:22:09I could see you
00:22:10Focusing on the technique
00:22:11And normally
00:22:11That doesn't happen
00:22:12When you perform
00:22:13It almost kind of
00:22:14Hindered it
00:22:15Because you're such
00:22:15An amazing performer
00:22:16So for me
00:22:17The technique
00:22:18Should disappear
00:22:18Into a great dance
00:22:19And I could see you
00:22:20Focusing on the technique
00:22:21But it was still
00:22:22Well delivered
00:22:23And a wonderful cha-cha
00:22:24Thanks Carrie
00:22:24Okay
00:22:25Alright
00:22:25Derek
00:22:26Carrie Ann
00:22:30You are out of your mind
00:22:32That was literal perfection
00:22:38For a cha-cha
00:22:39By the way
00:22:39Cha-cha in a semi-final
00:22:41Is like really risky
00:22:42Honestly
00:22:43It's like
00:22:43And it was
00:22:45It started off
00:22:46And it got better
00:22:47And better
00:22:47And better
00:22:48The precision
00:22:48The technique
00:22:50The performance
00:22:51That was awesome
00:22:53It was
00:22:53It was

00:23:15Hi girl
00:23:17Alright
00:23:18We're just gonna like
00:23:19Talk about the elephant
00:23:20In the room
00:23:21You said on
00:23:22The secret lives
00:23:22Of Mormon wives
00:23:23That the only reason
00:23:23Why you wanted to do
00:23:24The show
00:23:25Was so that you could
00:23:26Do this show
00:23:27Why do you want
00:23:28To be here so much
00:23:29You know what
00:23:29After two seasons
00:23:31Of doing the secret lives
00:23:32Of Mormon wives
00:23:33I wanted to take a break
00:23:34But once I found out
00:23:35That this would be
00:23:36An opportunity
00:23:37For all of the girls
00:23:38To be able to go after this
00:23:40I wanted to take that chance
00:23:41I will forever be
00:23:43So grateful for
00:23:44Gina Katz
00:23:44Because this has
00:23:46Changed my life

00:24:50Alright next up
00:24:52Our reality TV star
00:24:53And content creator
00:24:54Dances a tango
00:24:56To a top ten hit
00:24:57From Prince's
00:24:581994 album
00:24:59Purple Rain
00:25:00It's Dylan Efron
00:25:01And his partner
00:25:02Daniella Katagach
00:25:04That was your
00:25:11Breakthrough moment
00:25:13By a long shot
00:25:15He took it
00:25:16Perfect times
00:25:19This is just a moment
00:25:20I'll never forget
00:25:20The winner
00:25:21Of the relay dance
00:25:23Is
00:25:23Dylan and Ruma
00:25:24We're finally hitting
00:25:26Our stride
00:25:27And it's something
00:25:28To build off
00:25:28For these final two weeks
00:25:29If you told me
00:25:32We would have made
00:25:33The semi-finals week one
00:25:34I would have been like
00:25:35Cool but how
00:25:36I'm a slow learner
00:25:37But we've really worked
00:25:39Hard to get here
00:25:39Exactly
00:25:40Okay
00:25:41It's Prince night
00:25:42There's no other prince
00:25:43I love that
00:25:44And he's just
00:25:45Authentically himself
00:25:46Every night
00:25:47He's a natural performer
00:25:48And I think that's why
00:25:49He's still a legend today
00:25:50Right
00:25:50I think we can channel
00:25:51That this week
00:25:52Like it is a finale
00:25:53Like let's give it
00:25:54Everything we've got
00:25:55To the finale we go
00:25:56Chuck
00:25:56Nice
00:25:58The tango
00:25:59Is very much upright
00:26:01Strong in the legs
00:26:02Don't stick your butt out
00:26:03And Dylan's biggest challenge
00:26:05Is to keep his butt in
00:26:06That is one of the biggest comments
00:26:08Who we get
00:26:09Tuck that booty under
00:26:10Watch out for your bum
00:26:11She's right about that
00:26:12Butt tucked in
00:26:13Prince is tough
00:26:15This is my last
00:26:16Ballroom style dance
00:26:17Before the finale
00:26:18The elbow strap
00:26:19And this is my chance
00:26:20To prove to the judges
00:26:21That I've been listening
00:26:22This is the semis
00:26:24So I've got to
00:26:25Go out there
00:26:26And surpass
00:26:26What I did last week
00:26:27Getting closer
00:26:28Let's do it
00:26:29Dancing the tango
00:26:32With his partner
00:26:33Daniela Karagoc
00:26:34It's Dylan Efron
00:26:36I'm not a woman
00:26:47I'm not a man
00:26:49I am something that you'll never understand
00:26:53I'll never be too rude
00:26:55I'll never lie
00:26:56And if you're evil
00:26:58I'll forgive you by and by
00:27:00Cause you
00:27:01I'm what I want
00:27:04You
00:27:04Get just a set of iron tone
00:27:17Be your fight when you're cold
00:27:19Make you happy when you're sad
00:27:21Make you good when you are high
00:27:23I'm not human, I'm a dog
00:27:24I'm your conscious, I am love
00:27:26I'm not human being
00:27:28Just to know that you believe
00:27:30I'm one-urai-for-you
00:27:33I'm one-urai-for-you
00:27:35I'm one-urai-for-you
00:27:39I'm one-urai-for-you
00:27:41Dylan and Daniela with a tango
00:27:51That's to die for
00:27:53Oh, so good, dude
00:27:56Yeah!
00:27:58Good job!
00:27:59Great job, dude.
00:28:01All right, Carrie-Anne, you're up first.
00:28:04Dylan, impressive, very smooth debonair, still leading in control.
00:28:08There's a little bit of a mess up with the footwork, but listen, hold your booze.
00:28:16The real issue to me, though, in this was you've got to feel this music.
00:28:20This is Prince.
00:28:21I don't feel that you were always feeling the music.
00:28:23There were moments when you caught it, when Danielle hit it really hard,
00:28:25and you came back into feeling the depth of the music.
00:28:27I need that the whole night, okay?
00:28:29We have one more dance.
00:28:30Come on back with that.
00:28:31All right, all right.
00:28:32Derek, back with that.
00:28:33Dylan, my guy.
00:28:35Dude, you go over here and you went, shabam!
00:28:37Your arm, your frame.
00:28:40Man, the strong frame.
00:28:41Dude, it's been so fantastic to see your improvement.
00:28:44It's so extraordinary, truly.
00:28:46I was walking over there.
00:28:47Your brother was like, okay.
00:28:50Okay.
00:28:50I will just say one tiny little thing, though, just in the spirit of Len, actually,
00:28:55that in tango, it's all heel leads.
00:28:57All heel leads.
00:28:58And there was a lot of, you know, not heel leads in there.
00:29:01So, but overall, my man, that was fantastic.
00:29:04Great job.
00:29:05Bruno, don't worry.
00:29:07Your butt is beautifully under control.
00:29:11And you were clean, clear, sharp.
00:29:14I think leading men running the family here.
00:29:17I don't know.
00:29:17I'm getting a buzz in the room.
00:29:19But I have to say again, you're very, very much improved.
00:29:22And I actually did feel it because he was intense, but not in an arrogant way.
00:29:28No.
00:29:28In a very firm and assertive way.
00:29:31Okay.
00:29:32I like that.
00:29:32Okay.
00:29:33We're going to send you guys up to the skybox.
00:29:36You don't have to watch that anymore.
00:29:37All right.
00:29:38Now, Derek.
00:29:39Congratulations on the new show you're taking across North America.
00:29:46Oh, yes.
00:29:47Oh, my gosh.
00:29:47Thanks, man.
00:29:48Yeah, I'm hitting 40 cities across the country next summer with an amazing cast of dancers,
00:29:53a big production, a live band.

00:30:05Julianne, take it away.
00:30:07Thanks, Alfonso.
00:30:07All right, Dylan, how has it been dancing to Prince songs all week?
00:30:11I love them.
00:30:11I think these songs are making my playlist, actually.
00:30:13Like, these two are great.
00:30:15They're so good.
00:30:16But now, last week, you, like, had a full, massive breakthrough.
00:30:20Your dance, actually, like, those moves went viral.
00:30:23People all over the Internet are doing the, like, air walk lift.
00:30:27In fact, can we just cut to your husband, Pasha, doing this moment with little Nikita?
00:30:34Come on.
00:30:36Just like a lot.

00:32:29I love the texture in the body, and I saw that.
00:32:32Give it to me.
00:32:32Let's go.
00:32:33We did that.
00:32:36We did it.
00:32:37Making the semifinals is literally like making the Olympic trials.
00:32:40The winner of the relay dance is Jordan and Apollo.
00:32:44I'm honestly so proud, and now the competitor in me is definitely coming out.
00:32:49We made it to the semifinals!
00:32:51Dude!
00:32:51Your second season on Dancing with the Stars, and you're in the semifinals.
00:32:55Girl, I don't think it's clocking to me.
00:32:56Viva!
00:32:57It's Prince tonight.
00:32:58My junior season at UCLA, I did a Prince routine.
00:33:02Girl.
00:33:08And I did get a couple tens off of it, but I have never had a perfect score as a gymnast,
00:33:13so I'm waiting.
00:33:14Dancing with the Stars, UCLA, which one's going to be?
00:33:17This should be in place.
00:33:19The hardest thing to teach someone in the jive is stamina, and luckily my girl has got
00:33:23that down.
00:33:24Apparently, I don't smile at them.
00:33:26The way that Prince moves and grabs a piece of your heart is exquisite, so the judges are
00:33:31going to expect the biggest thing that has been throughout the whole season, the emotion.
00:33:35Three, four.
00:33:39It's not my fault I know how to pop a split.
00:33:42There have been so many incredible jives this season, so I'm going to have to bring
00:33:45everything I got to make sure we finally get our perfect scores.
00:33:50There's a Prince vibe.
00:33:53Dancing the jive with her partner, Ezra Sosa, it's Jordan Childs.
00:34:00One, two, one, two, three, four.
00:34:10Yeah.
00:34:15I was working part-time in a five and dime, my boss was Mr. Nicky.
00:34:21He told me several times that he didn't like the kind, cause I was a bit too leisurely.
00:34:28It seems that I was busy doing something close to nothing, but different than the day before.
00:34:34That's when I saw her.
00:34:36Oh, I saw her.
00:34:37She was been through the outdoor, outdoor.
00:34:39She wore a raspberry beret, the kind you found in the second-hand store.
00:34:47Raspberry beret, I think I love her.
00:34:57She wore a raspberry beret, the kind you found in the second-hand store.
00:35:04A raspberry beret, the kind you found in the second-hand store.
00:35:09I think I love her.
00:35:16Jordan and Ezra!
00:35:20Yes!
00:35:22And to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Around the World in a Day,
00:35:26the remastered deluxe expanded edition will be released this Friday.
00:35:31So good.
00:35:32All right, Derek, take it away.
00:35:35Jordan, that jive had that pure Prince funky fun.
00:35:38It was fresh.
00:35:39It was so fantastic.
00:35:41Well done.
00:35:42Really good.
00:35:43For me, I feel like for a jive, I wanted a little bit more attack,
00:35:46a little bit more sharpness, a little more bite in the movement.
00:35:48But overall, I loved, like, the highlight over there.
00:35:50It was fantastic.
00:35:51You always bring that.
00:35:52You always bring that.
00:35:53Well done.
00:35:54All right, Bruno.
00:35:54High energy fun.
00:35:57It was so fast, though, that you lost a little bit of time.
00:36:02You know, at that corner there.
00:36:03Because up till now, up till then, I was counting,
00:36:06listen, this is the semifinals.
00:36:08No, really, you were right on it.
00:36:12But obviously, to keep up the pace, things happen.
00:36:15But otherwise, it was brilliant.
00:36:17There you go.
00:36:18Absolutely, absolutely.
00:36:19Carrie Ann.
00:36:20For me, for me, for me, this was the best performance so far tonight.
00:36:23I love the energy noise.
00:36:25That's just super sharp, super strong.
00:36:27But there was the mess up.
00:36:29I saw it, too, Bruno.
00:36:30Yeah, so then, oh, yeah.
00:36:31So, sorry, what can I say?
00:36:33I would love to give it a score, but there was a mess up.
00:36:35It was a frustrating night.
00:36:36And don't be booing me anymore.
00:36:39That's her language.
00:36:41Head on up to the skybox.
00:36:43Next week, we're taking over all of ABC in prime time
00:36:47with our most demanding season finale in the history of the show.
00:36:51For the first time, we'll have three rounds of competition,
00:36:56including the instant dances and the make-or-break freestyles.
00:37:00Julianne.
00:37:00Oh, and honestly, with all the incredible talent that we've seen this season,
00:37:03you don't want to miss it.
00:37:05But we're right here with you right now.
00:37:07I want to know, you already did a gymnastics floor routine to Prince.
00:37:10How does it feel to do another Prince song tonight?
00:37:13Honestly, it's been such a remarkable experience.
00:37:16I'm very honored to do Prince tonight.
00:37:18Like you said, I did do it for my junior season.
00:37:20But you know what?
00:37:21It's always a fun vibe, and it's always, you know, really magical.
00:37:24Just be able to feel his art, and that's what I really wanted to do today.
00:37:28Well, also, I think the judges are going pretty hard.
00:37:31The judges are going pretty hard because it's the semifinals.
00:37:33What does that feel like to get that kind of feedback?
00:37:35Not just you, but for everybody here tonight.
00:37:38Honestly, it feels amazing because that just means
00:37:40they know how much potential I have.
00:37:42And, you know, at the end of the day,
00:37:43their comments are their comments,
00:37:44and we appreciate it 100%.
00:37:47I love that attitude.
00:37:48Let's get your scores.
00:37:50Carrie-Anne Inabe.
00:37:52Nine!
00:37:54Derek Huff.
00:37:55Nine!
00:37:57Bruno Tomyongi.
00:37:58Nine!
00:37:59All right, 27 out of 30 for Jordan.
00:38:01And Ezra, so far, how do you feel about those scores?
00:38:03I'm really excited.
00:38:04That just means there's more room for improvement.
00:38:06I love it.
00:38:07Well, like all of our stars,
00:38:08they need votes from you to compete next week
00:38:10in our season finale.
00:38:12Their second dance to another unforgettable Prince song
00:38:14is coming up.
00:38:15Alfonso.
00:38:15All right, thanks, Julianne.
00:38:17Now, the star who earned the first perfect score
00:38:20of the season is next.
00:38:22Robert Irwin and Whitney Carson
00:38:24dance after this live.
00:38:26Welcome back to the semi-finals.
00:38:40Next up, the wildlife conservationists
00:38:42who earned the first perfect score of the season.
00:38:46With a jive to Baby, I'm a Star
00:38:48from the 1984 Prince and the Revolution album Purple Rain,
00:38:52it's Robert Irwin and his partner, Whitney Carson.
00:38:59It was a touching tribute that touched all of us.
00:39:04Yes!
00:39:06First perfect score of the season
00:39:08to a dance dedicated to my dad
00:39:11was so incredibly meaningful.
00:39:13And we managed to win the relay dance,
00:39:16but now the race is on.
00:39:18Oh!
00:39:18First perfect score of the season.
00:39:21Are you kidding?
00:39:22I have one word for that.
00:39:24Crikey.
00:39:24Crikey!
00:39:26Okay, it's Prince Night,
00:39:27and we are dancing a jive to Baby, I'm a Star.
00:39:30Do you know that song or are you too young?
00:39:32I know I'm young, but I love Prince.
00:39:35He was just the most passionate, enthusiastic,
00:39:38unifying character.
00:39:39Like, I relate to that a lot.
00:39:41We've got to make it special and memorable.
00:39:43The fact that we won a jive relay last week,
00:39:46the judges have a direct comparison.
00:39:49And it will be better,
00:39:50so don't you worry about that.
00:39:52I've got so much energy because this is a jive.
00:39:54In this jive,
00:39:54we are going to have to amplify his technique
00:39:56and put a little bit more kicks and flicks,
00:39:58a little bit more content in there,
00:40:00so people can really realize
00:40:02how far Robert has come.
00:40:04It's the semifinals,
00:40:06so the expectations are there
00:40:07and the pressure is on.
00:40:09Oh, sorry.
00:40:10We are just going again and again and again,
00:40:12drilling it down to the bone.
00:40:14Fall change.
00:40:14Oh, I didn't even know that was a thing.
00:40:16Because our only option is perfection.
00:40:19Oh!
00:40:23Dancing the jive
00:40:24with his partner Whitney Carson,
00:40:26it's Robert Irwin.
00:40:28One, two, three, four.
00:40:31Hey, look me over.
00:40:42Tell me, do you like what you see?
00:40:46Hey, I ain't got no money.
00:40:48Honey, I'm rich on personality.
00:40:52Hey, shake it all out.
00:40:55Baby, I know what it's all about.
00:40:57Before the night is through,
00:40:59you will see my point of view.
00:41:01Even if I have the scream and shout,
00:41:03baby, I'm a host.
00:41:05Oh!
00:41:07Might not know it now.
00:41:08Baby, guitar, I'm a host.
00:41:11Stop!
00:41:11Oh!
00:41:13I don't want to stop.
00:41:16Carry the top.
00:41:17Sing it!
00:41:17Stop!
00:41:18Baby, baby, I'm a doctor.
00:41:23Baby, baby, baby.
00:41:28Baby, baby.
00:41:31Baby, baby.
00:41:33Baby, baby.
00:41:34Oh!
00:41:35Robert and Whitney with a rockin' dive.
00:41:47Oh, lots of love in the ballroom now.
00:41:50Yeah, dude.
00:41:53Kill that thing.
00:41:55Come on now.
00:41:56Woo!
00:41:57All right.
00:41:58Come on up here, y'all.
00:41:59Come on up here.
00:42:00Bruno, take it away.
00:42:01You see, for Prince, only a superstar jive would do.
00:42:08You did that.
00:42:10I mean, so pumped up, so energized,
00:42:14and at the same time in control.
00:42:16All that energy could power the country, to be honest.
00:42:20And you never put a foot wrong.
00:42:23The choreography, splendid.
00:42:26Superstar jive.
00:42:27All right, carry it.
00:42:29That is how you tell everyone you demand to be in the finale.
00:42:36When you dance like that, that was insane.
00:42:39Thank you so much.
00:42:40That was insane.
00:42:41So clean, so sharp, so buoyant, so fun, so amazing.
00:42:44You are just freaking amazing.
00:42:46Oh, I love you.
00:42:46Amazing, amazing, amazing.
00:42:48All right, Derek.
00:42:49Robert, listen.
00:42:51That's a great example of the way, like, when you dance,
00:42:54you dance with your full body, your full charisma.
00:42:56It's like, you're not even, like, hitting the step.
00:42:57You're like, pop, pop, pop, pop.
00:42:59And the slow moment, the flip over, that jive had it all.
00:43:05The sugar push.
00:43:06Yeah, the sugar push.
00:43:08I could go on and on and on.
00:43:09My God, that was incredible.
00:43:10Well done.
00:43:12I love it when people know the names of the boobs.
00:43:14All right, head on up to the skybox.
00:43:15The star who earned 27 for her Foxtrot is on the way.
00:43:20Elaine and Alan will dance to another Prince classic in just a minute.
00:43:23Julianne.
00:43:24Yeah, thanks, Alfonso.
00:43:26All right, Whitney, Robert, or should I call you the jive guy?
00:43:31I'm not sure.
00:43:32Honestly, between you doing the jive last week
00:43:35and winning the relay dance with Sochi and coming in,
00:43:38like, were you feeling pressure or confidence?
00:43:41Oh, a bit of both, you know, a little bit of both.
00:43:43And I've never sweat so much in my entire life.
00:43:46But it's a credit to Whitney.
00:43:48I mean, we're pushing.
00:43:49Both of us.
00:43:50We're working.
00:43:51And to bring joy into this room feels like this is what I live for.
00:43:56I know.
00:43:57I'm so proud of Robert.
00:43:58Honestly, like, I feel like I've been given a gift with him as my partner.
00:44:04And I just really appreciate everything that you've done.
00:44:07I love you.
00:44:08Love you.
00:44:08All right, well, let's see if the judges have a gift for y'all.
00:44:12Let's get your scores.
00:44:14Carrie-Anne Inaba.
00:44:15Yeah, it's a 10!
00:44:18Derek Hutz.
00:44:1910!
00:44:21Bruno Tomioli.
00:44:2210!
00:44:22Oh, yeah, Mary-Anne at 30 for Bob and Whitney so far.
00:44:28First perfect point of the night.
00:44:30How are you feeling?
00:44:32I am over the moon.
00:44:34This means the world.
00:44:35This is changing my whole life, and I'm so grateful.
00:44:39All right, well, you can vote for them right now with your text and online at abc.com.
00:44:44Voting closes shortly after the final competitive dance.
00:44:47All of the scores for the first dances are in.
00:44:49So let's take a look at the leaderboard.
00:44:52Currently at the top of Robert and Whitney with 30.
00:44:56And currently at the bottom are Dylan and Daniela, Elaine and Alan, and Jordan and Ezra with 27, a three-way tie.
00:45:07The scores and possibly the outstanding, or sorry, the standings will change with these next dances.
00:45:12Alfonso.
00:45:13All right, thanks, Julianne.
00:45:15Let's continue the semifinals with a pasa doble to the first number one single for Prince and the Revolution, When Doves Cry.
00:45:23Here's how Elaine and Alan trained for their final dance to get into our season finale.
00:45:28This is our last dance.
00:45:33This is what gets us into the finals, and I want you to fight for your spot.
00:45:37Oh, I can do that.
00:45:39Being an actress can be so hard that I've just trained myself to just be willing, just keep going, and it's really paying off.
00:45:48Normally I play characters, and to let people see me has been really scary.
00:45:52But I'm so glad I did it.
00:45:56I truly didn't know what I would be capable of in this competition.
00:46:01But every week, my body is showing up for me, and I'm really grateful for that.
00:46:07Let's do this for the younger Elaine that wanted to be a dancer.
00:46:11Let's do this.
00:46:12Let's do this.
00:46:12You ready?
00:46:13I am ready.
00:46:14I'm proud of you.
00:46:16Intense.
00:46:17Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
00:46:19Paso Doble is the dance of the matador and the cape in a bullfight.
00:46:24Boom.
00:46:25So close.
00:46:26This is the perfect dance for Elaine to show that power and resilience and determination that she's had all season.
00:46:32Sam, eight, stay back.
00:46:35We are in fight mode, so the most challenging thing about the Paso Doble is to have power while maintaining control.
00:46:42I've put my heart and soul out for the entire world to see every week.
00:46:48Do it again.
00:46:48So that's what I'm going to keep doing.
00:46:50It's fast.
00:46:51I'm having a hard time connecting that.
00:46:53It's okay.
00:46:53I'll get it.
00:46:56Last dance.
00:46:57Go!
00:46:58Last chance to make it in the finale, and I'm going to do just that.
00:47:02Okay.
00:47:03Proud of you.
00:47:04Let's just go for it.
00:47:08Dancing the Paso Doble with her partner Alan Burstyn, it's Elaine Hendricks.
00:47:12Did you wear the picture of you and I engaged in a kiss?
00:47:30This is where everybody covers me.
00:47:34Can you, my darling, can you picture the animals strike curious poses?
00:47:43They feel the heat, they feel the heat between me and you.
00:47:48They just need me standing.
00:47:51The world's so cold.
00:47:54The world's so cold.
00:47:55Baby, I'm just too deep.
00:47:57Baby, baby, now.
00:47:59Baby, you're my mother.
00:48:01Baby, you know what I'm going to do.
00:48:03Baby, you're just like my mother.
00:48:07She's never satisfied.
00:48:08Never, never satisfied.
00:48:11Why did you be free to try?
00:48:15It's so nice, so late.
00:48:17When I'm just crying.
00:48:19Oh, yeah.
00:48:30Elaine and Alan with a Paso Doble to win.
00:48:33Don't cry.
00:48:35And everybody loved that one in the ballroom.
00:48:40Let's go.
00:48:41Yes.
00:48:44Take it in.
00:48:45Take it in.
00:48:47Take it in.
00:48:48Love it, love it, love it.
00:48:49Darianne is coming this way.
00:48:52Come on, Darianne.
00:48:53Come here, come here, come here, come here.
00:48:54That was amazing.
00:48:56That was amazing.
00:48:59What was that?
00:48:59Was that amazing?
00:49:01That was what we're looking at.
00:49:02You left it all on the floor.
00:49:06Yes.
00:49:10All right.
00:49:11All right.
00:49:12For the love of mine.
00:49:13You talk, I'll help her.
00:49:14Okay.
00:49:14I'm good, I got it.
00:49:15I'm not going to fall.
00:49:16Elaine, Elaine, Elaine.
00:49:17That was amazing.
00:49:18I mean, it was a proper, beautiful Paso Doble with all the beautiful oval shapes, the lines.
00:49:23But more impressively, you came with that fight.
00:49:27I saw you the way, like, I saw you.
00:49:31I can't, I can't stay in my seat.
00:49:32I feel like Bruno tonight.
00:49:33Yeah, come on.
00:49:33Go for it.
00:49:34But Elaine, that is what we're talking about.
00:49:38Truly, truly, that is exactly what we're talking about.
00:49:41You fought for that dance.
00:49:42It was powerful.
00:49:43You filled the room with your energy.
00:49:46So good.
00:49:48All right.
00:49:48Look what you're doing to me.
00:49:50It just popped right open.
00:49:52It's done.
00:49:52A strumming to a regal bird of prey.
00:49:57Commanding everything in his sight.
00:49:59But no, honestly, that really was an authentic Paso Doble.
00:50:04As it should be done.
00:50:07It was a regal performance.
00:50:10Majestic.
00:50:11Yeah.
00:50:13So beautiful.
00:50:14Head on up to the skybox, you too.
00:50:15That's great.
00:50:16All right.
00:50:16Live right now on TikTok, Alex is from DW2ES.
00:50:20Emma and Jan are following Alex and Val's final preparations for their routine to Purple Rain.
00:50:26Don't miss your chance to check them out before they dance.
00:50:28Julianne.
00:50:29Thanks, Alfonso.
00:50:30Just give me a minute while I bow down to Elaine.
00:50:33Okay.
00:50:34You're feeling amazing.
00:50:35The judges said that was incredible.
00:50:37Going from the first round to this round, how are you feeling?
00:50:40Like I freaking fought for it.
00:50:42Damn right.
00:50:46I don't think we need any more than let's just get your scores, unfortunately, when we come back.
00:50:51No!
00:50:51No!
00:51:02Welcome back.
00:51:03Before the break, Elaine and Alan performed a Paso Doble that Carrie-Anne said was amazing.
00:51:09Let's get their scores.
00:51:12Carrie-Anne Inabe.
00:51:15It's a 10!
00:51:17Derek Hutz.
00:51:1910!
00:51:21Bruno Tomioli.
00:51:2210!
00:51:23That is a 20 out of 30 for Elaine and Alan.
00:51:26Paso Doble, their total for both chances is 57.
00:51:31All right, Elaine, this is your first perfect score of the season.
00:51:35What do you want to say?
00:51:36Oh, my God.
00:51:37Thank you so much.
00:51:38Alan, I love you so much.
00:51:41We worked so hard for this, rehearsing over and over, and it was worth every second of
00:51:46it.
00:51:47All right.
00:51:48Well, they've done everything they could to get into next week's season finale, where we
00:51:53will present the Len Goodman Miller Ball trophy to our new champions, Alfonso.
00:51:58All right, thanks, Julianne.
00:51:59Love that, love that.
00:52:00Next up, the star who earned 28 for her Argentine tango.
00:52:05For her last dance to get into our season finale, she'll perform a Viennese waltz for the title
00:52:10track from Purple Rain.
00:52:12First, let's see Alex and Val in training.
00:52:15I think this is one of the most beautiful songs ever, let alone one of Prince's best songs,
00:52:23Purple Rain.
00:52:24I'm so excited.
00:52:25It lends itself to a much more emotional performance.
00:52:28I've gotten so emotionally in tune with myself throughout this, and I don't want to cry.
00:52:34I am so excited getting to do this every day, and I'm going to be so upset when this is over.
00:52:43And I just...
00:52:46I've just learned so much about myself.
00:52:50It's given me a different work ethic, and I am more confident in being prepared to fail,
00:52:57and it's nothing I could have prepared myself for.
00:53:00I have, like, loved waking up every day to get to come in here and dance and learn more
00:53:05and challenge myself, and I forgot this isn't my everyday life.
00:53:10Let's really savor these dances.
00:53:13One, two...
00:53:15So this step.
00:53:16Yeah.
00:53:16The Viennese waltz is known for its left turns, right turns, pivots, fluid movement.
00:53:21Yeah.
00:53:22Your energy's here, it needs to go there.
00:53:24The challenging part is to then forget about it and put your soul into it.
00:53:28Two, boom, turn.
00:53:30Nice.
00:53:31I want to wear my heart on my sleeve for this, but I'm getting dizzy, so, you know,
00:53:35I have to make sure I'm spotting and figuring out where I'm going.
00:53:39Boom.
00:53:39There you go.
00:53:40Can I go lower?
00:53:41Um...
00:53:42Set.
00:53:43There's a lot of pressure to do Purple Rain justice and not let anyone down.
00:53:48It's hard to even put into words how much I've enjoyed this.
00:53:52I want to get to the finale and keep that dream going for another week.
00:53:58Dancing the Viennese waltz with her partner Val Jmerkovski, it's Alex Earle.
00:54:04I never meant to call with you when you're sorrow.
00:54:25I never meant to call with you when you're pain.
00:54:27I only wanted to see you laughing in the Purple Rain.
00:54:46Purple Rain, Purple Rain
00:54:50Purple Rain, Purple Rain
00:54:58Purple rain, purple rain
00:55:07Oh, do you want to see you on the knees of the moon?
00:55:22Alex Inbound with a Viennese waltz to Prince's iconic Purple Rain
00:55:28An iconic dance to an iconic song
00:55:33So good, you two
00:55:36Derek
00:55:37Alex, even for your package, you know, dance, it really, it transforms
00:55:41And we've seen you blossom into a beautiful, beautiful dancer, truly
00:55:45And I have no doubts that we're going to see you in those finals
00:55:49It was a powerful, passionate, and stunning Viennese waltz
00:55:55Well done, beautiful, fantastic
00:55:56All right, Bruno, go
00:55:58You delivered what I wanted
00:56:01The perfect combination of motion and emotion
00:56:04You were so connected and so into what was happening as a performer
00:56:10You felt the music, you trusted him
00:56:13And together you gave us a fabulous, fabulous, fabulous
00:56:19Carrie Ann
00:56:20This season has been by far the most challenging
00:56:26And the most competitive season we have ever seen in 34 seasons
00:56:31A performance like this is going to go down in history
00:56:35This is so powerful, you have blossomed because you are exactly what we always want
00:56:42You want somebody to grow, you grow and then you deliver this passionate, beautiful performance
00:56:48I'm so proud of you Alex, thank you
00:56:50Great job, you two
00:56:51All right, head on up to the skybox
00:56:53Joey Grazade's guest this week on the Dancing with the Stars official podcast
00:56:58Our champions, Caitlin Bristow and Sochi Gomez
00:57:01Along with our magnificent costume designers
00:57:04The podcast is available Thursday mornings on Disney Plus and Hulu or wherever you get your podcasts
00:57:10Julianne
00:57:10Thanks Alfonso
00:57:11Oh my goodness, we are one week away from the finale
00:57:15We saw you get emotional in the package
00:57:17Also listening to Carrie Ann's comments
00:57:18What does this competition and those comments mean to you?
00:57:23Um, I mean it means everything to me to hear that from the judges
00:57:25And like I said in the package, this has just been like the best experience
00:57:30And every single day I wake up so happy to dance
00:57:33And just learn more about myself and be with Belle
00:57:36So I just, I just brought tears to my eyes because I love it so much
00:57:40I love them
00:57:42All right, let's get your scores
00:57:43Carrie Ann Inub
00:57:46Ken
00:57:47Derek Hutz
00:57:50Ken
00:57:50Bruno Toglioli
00:57:53Ken
00:57:53All right, 30 out of 40 for Alex inbound
00:57:56Beatings 1, their total for both chances is 58
00:58:00How are you feeling?
00:58:01Oh my gosh, I'm going to keep crying
00:58:03Good tears
00:58:05Thank you, I'm so proud of her
00:58:06I'm proud of everybody that puts in the work
00:58:08But she's my partner, so I'm most proud of her
00:58:11I love you guys
00:58:12All right, well they don't want to rely on the judges' scores alone
00:58:14To get into the season finale
00:58:16They need votes from you
00:58:18Alfonso
00:58:19Thanks, Julianne
00:58:20The competition is heating up
00:58:21Dylan and Daniela's cha-cha
00:58:23To Prince's number one worldwide hit
00:58:26Kiss is next
00:58:27Live
00:58:28Welcome back to the semi-finals
00:58:41Next up, the star who earned 27 for his tango
00:58:44Performs a cha-cha for the 1986 Prince and the Revolution hit
00:58:49Kiss
00:58:49Here are Dylan and Daniela training to get into our season finale with this all-important dance
00:58:57So what's this whole experience been like for you so far?
00:59:03Week one it felt like I'm an imposter
00:59:05Like at a talent show and I had no talent
00:59:07And then like last week I'm flipping you in the air twice and catching you
00:59:11With a broken nose
00:59:12We did
00:59:13This show is much more than just learning to dance
00:59:16It's having the confidence to go out there and own a performance
00:59:19You won the show
00:59:20What's it going to take for us to get to the finale?
00:59:23Everything you've already been doing
00:59:24If you come here and you work hard and you stay focused
00:59:28That is everything a champion does
00:59:31This was a marathon, not a sprint
00:59:33No
00:59:34And we're on the last leg
00:59:35We still have like another week left in us
00:59:39So don't give up yet
00:59:40We need to make it to the finale
00:59:41We got to
00:59:42Okay, let's do this
00:59:44Since week one, one of Dylan's biggest challenges was performance
00:59:48All right, restart, restart
00:59:49But now his confidence is higher
00:59:51So with the cha-cha, I am so excited for him to just take over this dance
00:59:56And get those hips rolling
00:59:57Oh my gosh
00:59:58I think the most demanding part in this dance is just the cardio
01:00:01So right now it's just a mental exhaustion of trying to keep the technique
01:00:05While having fun and being loose
01:00:07I've been close to succeeding on a few of these Latin style dances
01:00:11So frustrating
01:00:12But I haven't nailed one yet
01:00:14So I think this is a chance for me to showcase what I've learned throughout this last 10 weeks
01:00:18That's insane
01:00:19This whole experience has been a marathon
01:00:21And I've run a ton of marathons
01:00:23So now I can actually see that finish line
01:00:26It's time to sprint
01:00:28I'm going to do everything I can to make that finale
01:00:31Too much
01:00:35Dancing the cha-cha
01:00:38With his partner Daniela Karagotch
01:00:41It's Dylan Efron
01:00:42Thank you for listening to this podcast
01:00:47I'm going to do everything I can to make that finale
01:00:51I just need your brother, baby, the rest of your soul.
01:01:05Don't have to be such a pillow I've got.
01:01:09Don't have to be so cool I want.
01:01:13Ain't no good to talk to me outside, I'm no good to talk to you.
01:01:17I just want your hands to tell me, yo.
01:01:22Kiss, dance.
01:01:28I love these.
01:01:37You don't have to be rich to be my girl.
01:01:41You don't have to be cool to rule my world.
01:01:45Ain't no particular sign, I'm no more compatible with.
01:01:49I just want your hands to die in your kiss.
01:01:59Yes!
01:02:01Dylan and Daniela with a cha-cha.
01:02:05Oh, there are a lot of people right now at home
01:02:07hitting pause for that they can kiss Dylan on their TV.
01:02:13Oh, it's happening. It's happening.
01:02:16All right, Bruno, take it away.
01:02:18I know what you're on thinking at home.
01:02:20I am first in line.
01:02:24You're a sexy beast.
01:02:26What happened to your hips?
01:02:28You've done so much work.
01:02:30The difference on your hip action
01:02:32and on your foot placement,
01:02:34your finish is incredible.
01:02:36Daniela, you've done a fantastic job.
01:02:39You should be proud.
01:02:41Yes.
01:02:42Carrie Ann.
01:02:44I like the attack this time.
01:02:46I definitely feel you're more connected to the music.
01:02:47Sometimes your arms got a little, like, a little small.
01:02:51I know.
01:02:52Look, look, you guys, a lot is at stake.
01:02:54Everybody has worked so hard.
01:02:56I have to tell him.
01:02:57So if he's here next week, he has something to work on, right?
01:03:00We want everybody to do well.
01:03:02So that is what I think you need to work on.
01:03:05And you have done a great job.
01:03:06So far.
01:03:06Okay.
01:03:07All right.
01:03:07Derek.
01:03:08Dylan.
01:03:09I'm sorry, guys.
01:03:11Bear with me.
01:03:11It's the knee slide at the beginning.
01:03:13So good.
01:03:14The compact chasse's.
01:03:15The New Yorkers.
01:03:17The details, man.
01:03:18Your hip action.
01:03:19The proper Cuban motion.
01:03:20That is not easy to do.
01:03:21Your arm placement.
01:03:22And the New Yorkers, your feet were turned out.
01:03:24Nobody does that.
01:03:25It was so, so impressive, man.
01:03:27You should be so proud.
01:03:29There was a little thing there, but great job.
01:03:33Great job.
01:03:34Great job, dude.
01:03:35Head on to the skybox.
01:03:37The standard of dancing on this record-breaking season has been so exceptional that none of
01:03:43us want it to end.
01:03:44But we will wrap it up next Tuesday night with our competition-packed season finale.
01:03:50Julianne.
01:03:51I know, and I can't believe how fast this season has gone by, Al Paco.
01:03:55It's truly a testament to how hard all of these couples work.
01:03:59Okay.
01:04:00You've done a tango tonight.
01:04:01You've done a cha-cha tonight.
01:04:03Are you a ballroom or a Latin guy?
01:04:05The Latin's fun.
01:04:06I'm better at the other, but the Latin's really fun.
01:04:09I don't know.
01:04:09You've got that hip-hop again.
01:04:11I love it.
01:04:11That's what we practice the most.
01:04:12It feels good to go out there and do it.
01:04:14I think everybody is very happy about that.
01:04:17All right.
01:04:17Let's get your scores.
01:04:18Carianne Inabe.
01:04:22Nine.
01:04:23Derrick Huff.
01:04:24The little thumb on nine.
01:04:26Great job, man.
01:04:27Great job.
01:04:27It's a ten.
01:04:30All right.
01:04:31That's 28 out of 30 for Dylan and Daniela.
01:04:34Cha-Cha, their total for both dances is 55.
01:04:38All right.
01:04:38How bad do you want to be in this finale?
01:04:40So bad.
01:04:41I know that she's going to do some incredible choreo, and I want that challenge.
01:04:44So I really want to get there.
01:04:46Got some freestyle magic up your sleeve, I'm sure, Daniela.
01:04:49All right.
01:04:50Well, judges' scores alone won't allow them to dance for the trophy and the title next week,
01:04:55but you can help them get there with the power of your votes.
01:04:57Alfonso.
01:04:58All right.
01:04:59Thanks, Julianne.
01:05:00There's more fierce competition on the way.
01:05:02Whitney and Mark perform a Viennese waltz to a Prince hit from Sign of the Times when we come back live.
01:05:09We're back with the pros that you can see in person this winter in our all-new live tour.
01:05:25Go to dwtstour.com for tickets and information.
01:05:29The shows have been selling fast, so don't miss your chance.
01:05:32And trust me, you're going to have the most amazing time, I promise.
01:05:36All right.
01:05:36Well, next up, the star who earned $29 for her cha-cha dances a Viennese waltz to slow love
01:05:42from Prince's ninth album, his masterpiece, Sign of the Times.
01:05:47That's right.
01:05:47Here are Whitney and Mark training for this last chance to get into next week's season finale.
01:05:52So, this is it, man.
01:05:56Hopefully, your gateway to potentially make the finale.
01:05:59Yeah.
01:06:00You know?
01:06:00So, what has this experience been like for you?
01:06:03I knew it was going to be really challenging going into it.
01:06:05Just being a fan of the show and seeing all the hard work that the stars put in.
01:06:09But it's so different when you actually live it.
01:06:12It is.
01:06:13I feel like, um...
01:06:15Being a part of this experience, like, blossomed something in me that I feel like had been missing.
01:06:28I've learned it's okay to be yourself.
01:06:31And when I dance, I feel most like myself.
01:06:33So, it's been really exciting to reunite with that person.
01:06:37I just feel like this whole experience has been life-changing for me.
01:06:40And I'm just...
01:06:41I'm just so grateful.
01:06:44I mean...
01:06:45I'm proud of you.
01:06:49Good.
01:06:49Shifting.
01:06:50I don't know.
01:06:50In this V and these walls, Whitney has to create width in her frame.
01:06:54And we need to create space with this frame.
01:06:56Show us elegance, poise, and try your best.
01:06:59It just looks like a little princess float on a cloud.
01:07:01Like, I want to style it cool.
01:07:04Because it's Prince.
01:07:05There's a lot of writing in this one.
01:07:06Again, now let's try and get back to the center.
01:07:08The most challenging thing for me is my back, keeping it arched the whole time.
01:07:12Use your back.
01:07:12It's just a very awkward position to have to hold throughout the whole entire dance.
01:07:17Two, three, set aside.
01:07:18Get in the frame.
01:07:18Do it again.
01:07:19That's where you're looking to get.
01:07:20When I became a mom and had kids, I didn't think I could make a living off of being a performer
01:07:25and entertainer.
01:07:26But now it feels obtainable.
01:07:28Yes.
01:07:28Better.
01:07:28And that I will forever be grateful for.
01:07:31Not bad.
01:07:32Not bad.
01:07:36Dancing the Viennese waltz with her partner Mark Ballas, it's Whitney Levitt.
01:07:40Young is the night
01:07:53It feels so right
01:08:00Let's make it last forever.
01:08:12Let's make it last forever.
01:08:24Oh, a hundred times it wouldn't be enough
01:08:33Oh, yeah, yeah
01:08:37Tonight is the night we're making
01:08:41It's love
01:08:43Yes, Whitney and Mark with a Viennese waltz.
01:09:02You can do this.
01:09:03Oh, yeah.
01:09:04You can do this.
01:09:04Absolutely gorgeous.
01:09:07You get me?
01:09:09You can do this.
01:09:11Yeah.
01:09:14Beautiful.
01:09:15Absolutely beautiful.
01:09:16Carrie Ann.
01:09:18Wow.
01:09:18Okay.
01:09:22That was, for you, from all the performance that you have done, my absolute favorite.
01:09:28It felt so authentically you.
01:09:33There was, you unmasked, you showed us truly your soul and how much you love to dance.
01:09:39And I just want to thank you for that.
01:09:41There was a bit of a hop, so I had to mark for that.
01:09:45But what you did, please, no one can take that away from you.
01:09:48That was outstanding.
01:09:50Yes, there was a two.
01:09:52All right.
01:09:53Two.
01:09:54Carrie Ann, you crazy.
01:09:55There were two.
01:09:56I see what I see.
01:09:57Oh, whatever.
01:09:57Okay, okay.
01:09:58Okay, okay.
01:09:58Okay, okay.
01:09:59Go ahead.
01:10:00Come on.
01:10:00And it's okay.
01:10:01I want to share this actually real fast.
01:10:02I want to commend you so much for sharing your ambition and sharing your dreams, because
01:10:06I find that to be very courageous.
01:10:09Very courageous.
01:10:10A lot of people are afraid to express what they desire, what they want to do, in fear
01:10:14that it won't happen.
01:10:15It's scary to put that out there.
01:10:17But you put that out there, and you show up, and you deliver, and you dance, girl.
01:10:21You dance.
01:10:22Yes.
01:10:23Yes, my love.
01:10:24Bruno.
01:10:25Because you are immensely talented.
01:10:27Talented.
01:10:28What we saw tonight, whatever, the quality of movement in that Venice Waltz, we see very
01:10:33rarely.
01:10:34You always look for that feel, you know, guys, like the riding on the crest of a wave.
01:10:39When you do everything, and it's absolutely in tune, and phrased with the music.
01:10:43Impeccable!
01:10:44Well, heading up to the skybox.

01:16:47Fabulous
01:16:49Alright, carry in
01:16:50I'm trying to find the words to describe you

01:16:57You're always taking the biggest risk
01:17:00You are always moving forward to your own style
01:17:03You do not sacrifice what you want to be when you show up on this dance floor for anybody
01:17:08And I love that

01:17:25Thanks Alfonso
01:17:26Jordan
01:17:27I see you getting emotional
01:17:30How you doing?
01:17:31You want to share anything right now?
01:17:34Honestly, you know
01:17:35This has been an incredible journey
01:17:37And like I said earlier
01:17:39That little girl in me
01:17:40Definitely should be very, very proud
01:17:43Now you said you haven't got a perfect score in gymnastics
01:17:47And you haven't got a perfect score yet on Dancing with the Stars
01:17:50Are you hoping for that tonight?
01:17:52I am
01:17:52Let's get your scores
01:17:54Carrie-Anne Inabe
01:17:57Ten
01:17:58Derek Huff
01:18:01Ten
01:18:03Bruno Tom Young
01:18:05Ten
01:18:06Jordan
01:18:0730 out of 30 for Jordan
01:18:10And as is Argentine Tango
01:18:12Their total for both dances is 57
01:18:15Jordan
01:18:16You did it
01:18:18And just in time
01:18:19For the finale coming up
01:18:21Alright, well if you have been giving them your votes throughout the season
01:18:25And this is not the time to stop
01:18:27Vote right now to send them to next week's season finale
01:18:30We're coming right back
01:18:31Live
01:18:32We're back with Prince Night
01:18:45Last up, the star who earned a perfect 30 for his jive
01:18:49Performs a Viennese waltz to wow
01:18:51From Prince's 36th album 2014
01:18:55Plectum Electrum
01:18:57Here are Robert and Whitney in training
01:19:00This is the dance that could get us into the finale
01:19:06Little 11 year old me would be screaming right now
01:19:10You know when you're little and you enter the Dancing with the Stars ballroom
01:19:14My eyes are just so wide
01:19:15It all just seemed so enormous
01:19:17But having this experience myself
01:19:20It actually feels ten times bigger
01:19:22I am walking a path that my sister forged
01:19:25And it's been a great honour to do that
01:19:28But now in the semi-finals
01:19:30It's time to write our own story
01:19:32And it's time to create my own legacy
01:19:34There's no room for anything other than perfect
01:19:36Because I know that everybody else is going to be bringing their best
01:19:39I just want to pour my heart and soul into it
01:19:42Let's amp this up
01:19:43Let's get ourselves to the finale
01:19:45Let's go
01:19:46Viennese waltz
01:19:47It's a lot of rotation
01:19:48The difficult part about Viennese waltz for Robert
01:19:50Is the footwork and the technique
01:19:52So that there's no stumbles and there's no falls
01:19:55Oh my god
01:19:55There are such high stakes
01:19:57Crap
01:19:58So it really has to be perfect
01:20:00Get into it
01:20:01It's just the character
01:20:02The hardest part of this Viennese waltz
01:20:04Is the fact that I have to be so passionate and intense with Whitney
01:20:07That's just not our dynamic
01:20:09This is weird
01:20:10Closer
01:20:11This show has been everything to me
01:20:16And we have hit a lot of challenges along the way
01:20:19Tonight, if we get this right
01:20:22We're on to the finale
01:20:23And that will be the ultimate dream come true
01:20:25Dancing the Viennese waltz
01:20:30With his partner Whitney Carson
01:20:32It's Robert Irwin
01:20:34Looking so far
01:20:39Now it's true
01:20:54Remember the time we first met
01:20:57You think that was good
01:20:59You ain't seen nothing yet
01:21:02Like a beetle so hot
01:21:04I'm off to a flame
01:21:07You got an addiction
01:21:09And you got me away
01:21:11And I'm coming, coming
01:21:14Cause I made no claim
01:21:16Until now
01:21:17You can call it the unexpected
01:21:20Or you can call it
01:21:21Wow
01:21:23You can call it, call it
01:21:26Wow
01:21:28Robert and Whitney with a Viennese waltz
01:21:49Oh yeah
01:21:50You deliver that one dude
01:21:55Yeah

01:22:14Thank you
01:22:15I want to see the sequel
01:22:17I didn't want it to stop
01:22:18What is she gonna do next?

01:22:35You made us curious about you
01:22:36Telling the story like that
