The ‘DWTS’ semi-finals have arrived. The remaining couples brought their A-game with two separate performances, but two pairs were sent home once again in another heartbreaking elimination.
The Dancing with the Stars semi-finals begin out with the redemption round. Cody Rigsby and Cheryl Burke are up first with their redemption salsa. The last time they danced the salsa, the judges could only see their rehearsal footage because they both had COVID-19. This time around, they dance the salsa in the ballroom to “Danza Kuduro” by Don Omar and Lucenzo.
Bruno Tonioli notes that Cody’s “arm-ography” has drastically improved, but he did mess up a couple of times. Carrie Ann Inaba calls this performance the “definition of redemption.” Len Goodman calls the performance an “action-packed, full-on salsa,” and Derek Hough adds that this was a “huge improvement from the first time.” Cody and Cheryl’s scores: Carrie Ann = 9; Len = 9; Derek = 8; Bruno = 9. Total Score = 35 out of 40.
