It's Dancing With the Stars very first Cirque Du Soleil Night and it promises to be the most creative thing seen on the show. Do you think it's fair to give such athleticism to an Olympic gymnast? Methinks maybe Laurie's got this one in the bag. Perhaps, though, it actually has nothing to do with Cirque Du Soleil because some of the dances were the same ol' theme-y dances. Except Amber Rose's... which is very sexy. Maybe because last week she felt body shamed by Julianne, who maintains that she is only judging the dance, not Amber's body size.

'Strictly Come Dancing' is where Len is this week, so there's only 3 judges to freak the stars out. The two couples with the lowest combine scores will be leaving during elimination.

Calvin and Lindsay - Charleston - 23/30
Maureen and Artem - Argentinen Tango - 24/30
Jana and Gleb - Foxtrot - 23/30
Marilu and Derek - Paso Doble - 21/30
Amber and Maks - Argentine Tango - 24/30
Ryan and Cheryl - Viennese Waltz - 22/40
Babyface and Allison - Tango - 18/30
Terra and Sasha - Samba - 25/30
Laurie and Val - Jazz - 30/30 - FIRST PERFECT SCORE OF THE SEASON
Vanilla Ice and Witney - Viennese Waltz - 23/30
James and Sharna - Quickstep - 28/30

I was sooooo right about Laurie having it in the bag. Seriously, did you see that girl?? Certainly she won't be in danger of going home since she's the one to beat. There are, however, the lowest couples on the leaderboard... which would be Marilu and Derek and Babyface and Allison. Someone's gotta go. Yet Marilu and Derek are announced safe very early. But that's not the biggest surprise. Sasha and Emma do a contemporary routine and Tom greets them on the stage and hands the hosting duty over. Sasha then gets on one knee and PROPOSES! (Emma said "yes" in case you were worried.)

The first couple to be eliminated is Babyface and Allison. NOT BABYFACE! Humph. The second couple leaving the competition is Vanilla Ice and Witney. Ugh. Who is voting??? Does no-one appreciate the 90's? Goodbye nostalgia.
