The Results Show Recap

-Instead of the judges picking the encore dance, the audience would pick it on Twitter. It was between Janel & Val and Lea & Artem. We’ll find out who got the dance a little later.
-The first three couples to find out their status were Betsy & Tony, Lea & Artem and Randy & Karina. Lea and Artem are safe. Randy and Karina are safe. Betsey and Tony are safe. Everyone is safe.
-The second group to find out their status: Tommy & Peta, Jonathan & Allison, and Michael &Emma. Tommy & Peta are safe, Michael & Emma are in jeopardy, and Jonathan & Allison are safe.
-Janel and Val are told they get the encore dance.
The next group of couples to find their status is Janel & Val, Bethany & Derek and Sadie & Mark. Janel & Val are safe, Bethany & Derek are safe and Sadie & Mark are in jeopardy.
-Len isn’t going to be around for the next couple of weeks. He’ll be over in England doing their version of Dancing with the Stars called Strictly Ballroom. Subbing in for him will be fun guest hosts. Next week, comedian Kevin Hart will be the guest judge. Not sure how that is going to work but at least he is funny.

-Julianne showd us why she is one of the best by doing a dance with all the male pros.
-The Final three couples to find out their status: Alfonso & Witney, Antonio & Cheryl, and Tavis & Sharna. Alfonso & Witney are safe, Tavis & Sharna are in jeopardy, and Antonio & Cheryl are safe.
