So he wanted to show America who I really am.

Only onDWTScan someone do that by performing a tango to Tears for Fears!

You lost your timing, admitted Bruno Tonioli.

It went a bit wrong.

I am sorry but we are halfway through.

I definitely thought you were much more confident, added Carrie Ann Inaba.

Maybe my eyes just drifted to his coiffure since there wasnt a lot of cha cha to enjoy.

And its not good when even the Zoom cameos from the New Kids on the Block upstage your number.

(But seriously, how cute is Joey McIntyre STILL.)

I didnt feel like you had enough content, said Inaba.

Livin on a prayer, indeed.

Poor Vernon; he wont last much longer.

It started so well.

What happened is you went wrong.

There was a link, you went to the wrong foot.

Somehow your footwork started to get flat, said Tonioli.

Work on your feet.

Then Tonioli reacted to the booing crowd which actually wasnt there.

But I liked how the cotton doubled as bubbles!

Speaking of heavy lather, Jeannies frothy personality made her jazz performance to Madonnas tune a real delight.

(Youre feeling like shell make the final three, right?)

“Yall looked absolutely adorable, said Hough.

There is a confidence about you when you dance, it brings an energy and an ease.

It was a simple and clean routine.

Nelly deserved at least one 9 for that rad performance, but the bachelorette hogged them all on Monday.

Gag me with a spoon, judges!

Nelly, as Len Goodman would say, ‘hold my gaze.’

That was your best dance!

Fortunately, the judges were enamored with her splashy finish.

What a great way to launch the show!

You are always so much fun to watch.

This was so deliciously ’80s.

I was crying all the way through, for a good reason, adds Tonioli.Score:24 out of 30

in that red, low-necked bodysuit during the rehearsal package.

What was that moment in time about, big guy?

Sadly, we didnt get an answer before he waltzed to Open Arms at theDWTShomecoming dance.

Terrific staging, production people.

This is the perfect place where you should be this week, said Inaba.

I love this style on you, said Hough.

Fortunately, her mom brought me back by saying, Dont disappoint the 80s!

That was so fun, said Hough.

When you are side by side, you light up.

For some reason, she found more of a future in tumbling and high Vs. Go figure!

Anyway, what did you think of her tango to Tainted Love, judges?

You were so on it, said Tonioli.

You brought out the guns, the legs, she looks amazing!

Man, can he quickstep!

“You are one of the most consistent dancers we have seen,” said Inaba.

“Just a few times it felt like your movements were a little smaller than normal.

It didn’t feel like you were solid on your feet.”

“Dude, great job, great way to end the night!

Loved it,” said Hough.

More from Tonioli: “It was very fast and very, very efficient.

Has Artem finally been blessed with a partner that will bring him his first Mirrorball Trophy?

This is the fourth tango we saw tonight.

In frame, you are far superior to anyone elses frame, said Inaba.

Connecting, projecting, emoting, said Tonioli.

What you are doing now is the sign of the artist.

You really give dance a meaning.

We always know you have great extension.

Tonioli and Inaba saved Vernon and Peta so theDesperate Housewivesactor had to go.

Argue amongst yourselves whether this was the right call.

Hough will dance next week!

See you then, glitter admirers.
