The cast of Dancing With the Stars brought their best moves to the ballroom for night three of season 35 — but for one couple, it still wasn’t enough.
The third episode of the season aired on Tuesday, September 22, with both the male and female celebrity contestants dancing to popular social media songs as part of Viral Hits Night.
Jenna Dewan and Val Chmerkovskiy kicked off the night with a performance of Katseye’s “Animal,” which received praise from judges Bruno Tonioli, Carrie Ann Inaba and Derek Hough. Tonioli told Dewan that she was a “fast and furious sexy beast” and that she “did not miss a beat.”
Later on in the night, Ezra Frech was praised for his cha-cha with pro Daniella Karagach. Inaba told the Paralympian that he demands “us to watch and you demand excellence for yourself,” while Hough said he was “blown away” by the performance. They were given a score of 21, tying for first place with Dewan and Chmerkovskiy.
Olympian Amber Glenn and pro partner Pasha Pashkov made the top score a three-way tie when they also earned a 21 points. Tonioli declared it was the “best tango of the night,” and Inaba said that the performance was “phenomenal,” leaving her with “shivers” and “full body chills.”
However, the judges weren’t quite as complimentary to all of the contestants. Tonioli told Giada De Laurentiis that her salsa with pro partner Alan Bersten had “no spice,” with Inaba admitting she found the number to be “shaky.” They were given a score of 12 — matching Guillermo Rodriguez and pro partner Witney Carson as the lowest score of the night — and were ultimately sent home.
“I tried my best and it wasn’t best enough. But I tried my best,” De Laurentiis following her elimination.
Dancing With the Stars airs on ABC and Disney+ Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET. Scroll down for a complete breakdown of each couple’s scores from the third episode of season 35:
