I was sad to see both Chelsea Traille and Chris Jarosz get eliminated this week. Chelsea just seems to bring a sparkle to the dance floor when she dances and Chris just seems so eager and happy to be dancing. It’s a joy to watch them both!

Now each of their partners will have to adjust to a new partner for next week’s competition. It should be interesting to see how well they both do with the extra challenge.

Now the final 14 are left to face off for the title of America’s Favorite Dancer. I love the personalities of “Twitchington,” aka Twitch and Kherington and the sheer talent of Will.
