The dance troupe kicked things off with a dance medley to some Motown hits. I really liked how they used the whole ballroom and showed off Louis Van Amstel’s awesome choreography.
William & Cheryl, Maria & Derek, Jaleel & Kym, and Melissa & Maks were all up first to find out if they were safe or in jeopardy. The first couple safe was Jaleel & Kym! Yay! I really like them. The first couple in jeopardy was Maria & Derek, I am shocked! William & Cheryl found out they were safe and Melissa & Maks also found out they were in jeopardy. We’ll find out later if either of the couples in jeopardy are actually in the bottom two and if they will have to face off in the dance duel.
The show started right off the bat this week with a performance by legend Smokey Robinson. The Troupe members did a great job dancing to “Tracks of My Tears” and then out of nowhere, Martha Reeves started singing “Dancing in the Street”. If that wasn’t enough, “The Temptations” come out with “Get Ready” and then the party was really started! It’s Motown Week on “Dancing With the Stars”!
Something weird happened during the intro and they didn’t show Donald and Peta. Instead they showed a trumpet player. Where’s Donald? After watching it back, they were there, and it looks like it was a camera mistake. They were standing there in the lineup at the end of the stair walk downs so I guess it was just a mistake. It is after all live TV! Jaleel and Kym look like a prince and princess I must say! Then they revealed the band and they will be accompanying the Motown legends all night long.
On this week's "Dancing with the Stars", it's Motown Week! It's going to be full of legends like Smokey Robinson, The Temptations and Martha Reeves. The legends will actually kick off the show tonight, performing an unforgettable live Motown medley accompanied by the Dance Troupe. For the first time ever, each artist will perform with the talented "DWTS" band and musical director Harold Wheeler before each of the remaining eight couples begin their competitive dance.
This elimination was the first time that the bottom two would go head to head in a Cha Cha dance duel where the judges would decide who to save.
The judges decided that they would like to see Maria and Derek’s sexy Salsa dance again. Maria didn’t seem as into it this time as she did last night when they were getting judged on it, she was like, more relaxed or something. So Derek took off his shirt again, but this time instead of kissing Maria, he ran over to Carrie Ann, the band stopped and he laid a big one on her (pretty sure it was just her cheek). Then as they walked away, I’m pretty sure she had a little wardrobe malfunction and she had to put her chest back in her top.
Wow, really?! It’s already the half way point of the competition! It’s Latin Night and all things are hot and spicy including the band! They had a great opening number along with Carlos Santana.
Then it was time to greet the stars. Was William Levy there? That is what I was waiting to see. And what do you know…there he was! Hooray, he strutted down the stairs, shirt half open. Do you know who also looked really good tonight, Melissa Gilbert! Her hair looked great!

That's because it's Latin Night!
The remaining nine couples will dance either the Salsa, Argentine Tango, or the Samba! Sounds muy caliente!
UPDATE: The contestant I was most excited to see dance tonight, might be out for the night! William Levy injured his ankle during rehearsals. He's getting an MRI to find out how bad he is hurt, let's hope he can still dance!
Also, Global Music Icon Carlos Santana is expected to perform this week! It's going to be a great show that you won't want to miss. The fun begins at 8 p.m. tonight on ABC!

The pros Mark Ballas, Chelsie Hightower, Henry Byalikov and Oksana Dmytrenko did a high energy ballroom dance and it was a great way to start the show and get the crowd pumped!
First up to learn their fate were Gavin & Karina and Melissa & Maks. We all know that Melissa suffered a concussion and some whiplash. They showed the clip again and you could see when Maks twirled her on the ground, she hit her head.
She was taken to the hospital and because of that she needs a rest day, so Maks took the stage without her and said that Melissa is already looking for next week. The first couple saved was Melissa & Maks. Gavin & Karina were also safe! This is the first time he hasn’t ended up in the bottom two!
This week on “Dancing With the Stars” the band “KISS” kicked things off with “Rock and Roll All Nite” and it was a really cool way to start the show. The dance troupe members even got their “KISS” faces on! “KISS” even played the intro music along with the band as the couples made their big entrances.
Sherri and Val were up first to rock out with their Tango. First off, Sherri looked fabulous! Her waist looked teeny tiny in that back rock outfit. Again, just like in past weeks, I think her feet and legs need to have a little more “punch” to them. It just looks a little weak. She was right on with all of her movements though and kept up with the choreography. Len said that she coped well with dance styles that don’t really suit her personality but thought it was a good job. Bruno said that she had great attitude but thought it needed to be a bit sharper. Carrie Ann said it was good but her exuberance was lacking. She thought her face looked too expressionless.
Their Scores: Carrie Ann – 7, Len – 7, and Bruno – 7, for a total of 21 out of 30. Yikes, this will for sure put her at the bottom I think, but it’s early so we’ll have to wait and see.
Get ready to rock out tonight during "Rock Week" on "Dancing with the Stars"! Here's the details from ABC on what we can expect to see tonight and tomorrow!
Rock Week returns, with KISS opening the show with a spectacular performance of “Rock and Roll All Nite,” accompanied by the Troupe. Bringing lots of leather and lots of fire, the remaining ten couples will perform to some of the greatest Rock songs of all time, MONDAY, APRIL 9 (8:00-10:01 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

Seal kicked off the show by singing “Lean on Me”. He has such a smooth voice and it was a really great performance. Who else is sad about his breakup with Heidi Klum? Anyway, members from the dance troupe performed a rousing dance to the performance.
The four couples first to learn their fate were Roshon & Chelsie, Maria & Derek, Gavin & Karina, and Katherine & Mark. The first couple safe was Katherine & Mark, no surprise there with their fabulous score of 29 last night. Maria & Derek also were safe with their steamy performance. Gavin & Karina however learned that they were in jeopardy. Lastly, Roshon & Chelsie learned that they were safe. He’s a fabulous dancer but I thought his story was a little lacking. Maybe it’s because he’s so young and hasn’t had a whole lot of “life experience” yet.
