Four Dances, Two Weeks, One Perfect Score

But now, 7UP is fighting back with their new lime-lemon soda.

But she's such a gangster and she's like forcing me to do things that are scary and I just wanna, you know, I talk the talk, I wanna walk the walk. You know, last night I was like, fuck it, let's do it. And we're doing it. - It's easy. - It's easy. - Super easy. - For me. - As long as we go seven, jump eight, I got you. - Five, six, down seven. - ♪ So bring your good times and your five, six, seven ♪ - I am a little scared, but I'm not gonna tell him.

'Cause I feel like I'm not going back. - Julianne's not here at the moment, but she is trying to get you here. I reckon more realistically, do you want to step one step back from Val? - Julianne is in the pole scene in a really real way. We have a story. - We have a story. - It's very impressive. - Can I also say how much love I felt from all you guys, and how solid you are, and how, like, wonderful it is, and thank you, thank you, thank you so much. - Yay! - Yay! - Yay! - Team Cool! - One, two, three. - Team Cool! - Good job! - Yay! - How do you feel about the move? - Oh, it's good. I feel good. It's like my heart skips a beat every time we do it. - It looked good. - Does it? - Does it? I mean, yeah. I mean, it's a great move. It's just scary, but it's rewarding, you know? It's like afterwards, I feel so pumped and so fulfilled. - Are we still talking about this? I feel great. - It looked good. - No pressure at all. - No, there's no pressure. I want to watch it back, though, just to make sure that we're clean on top. Does this dance kill your fucking side? - I think it's all the heavy breathing for a while just cramps it up a little. ♪ ♪ - Oh, yeah, a little whoopsie-daisy there. - Alex, what's it like dancing with 10 people compared to your normal two? - It's fun just to see how everyone else works in the team dance and, like, learning choreography. And I guess getting to work with the other pros, too, is fun. Just, like, how they explain things, getting to work with the girls is nice, so they can teach me more, like, feminine hands and stuff. But it's been really fun. And our dance is just, like-- I feel like we're all laughing the whole time. It's a good vibe. These steps, learning them, came really fast to me because I think I'm, by maybe two months in, becoming a little bit of a better dancer. Like, it didn't take as long for me to learn the new steps and footwork and framing. It just kind of, like, made sense. So that was, like, the coolest part of this week. I was like, "Wow, I'm kind of understanding it now." I feel like this happens every week, but, like, until I go on stage, my full performance isn't there in terms of my face, so I've really got to still bring that. She's cooking. What's the dance this week? I think our dance this week is a paso doble, which is very, like, Val explained to me, like, a matador with a bowl and, like, a cape. So we have, like, cape and skirt work, which is also really stressing me out, and I have to walk down four stairs, which it'll be fine. I just get very stressed about the stairs. You do a front flip on Val's shoulders, and you're scared about the steps? Yes. The steps are-- And you said-- So I just fell down the one step and face-planted and rolled my ankle off of it. I don't know. I don't like the steps. Free falling down the stairs, but I'm not going to fall. That won't happen. Now I need to stretch and practice, and now it's time to be anxious. You said you were more anxious this week than any other. Why is that? I think, like, the pressure is on. We got to do good. Even though Val's like, "We just got to have fun," I'm like, "I know you want me to do the best I can." No worries. No stress. No worries, no stress. How was Val this week compared to last? Val was good. He was a little mean, but he was also good. Like, a good way mean. He was constructive, criticism mean. And I had, like, one more breakdown, and then we're fine. I think that's the key to getting a good dance, is I just need to have a little breakdown first, and then I really lock in. What are you guys dancing to this week? We're dancing to "Living on a Prayer" by Bon Jovi, which is going to be so fun, such a fun song. And Bon Jovi sent us a video. That's sick. Yeah. And we got to do Bon Jovi justice here, because I was out in St. Bart's in New Years on a boat at a party, and I met Bon Jovi. And this is why it's important that I go out, because I'm networking for important things like this. And now we have our team dance, which we're not on the same team. Yeah. How's yours going? It's good. How is yours? It's-- we're-- we're good now, but-- It's kind of crazy how, like, those came together, because we only had, like, one day to practice. Ours came together really-- I think ours isn't that complicated, so it came together really quick. So now, time to put this in my ear. In practice, I always feel like I have to pee before. I, like, peed my pants a little during the team rehearsal. Oh. That's the scary part. That works. Side grab. I want that last picture to be stronger. I don't want it to be survival. I want it to be, like-- OK. Sit up. Even if you're looking at me, you could just acknowledge me over the shoulder. You don't have to, like-- OK. When I say look at me, does it mean both eyes? You could still play to the front. Yeah, exactly. And I'll peek further in. I love the emotion that you create, even if you close your eyes on me. Nice. Listen, I don't want to change anything about that. I want you to just go in there having fun and executing like that. I'll-- I'll match that. I didn't feel like that was my best one, if that makes you feel better. Yeah. But it's still very, very good. Don't change anything about that. OK. You can make it better for you. But I'm saying structurally, don't change it. Like, if it focuses or anything. Wow. So freaking good. We just got to look like we didn't survive a car ride, which we did, but we got to pretend like we didn't. One last time from the top, and then let's go get ready. It's this. It doesn't need to be more than that. We'll see you next time. I'm a little bit awkward. I like it. I know, but then I get awkward. One more time. One more time, just like that? No. Oh, it's rocking and rolling and whatnot. Are you ready for team cool? Yeah. Let's go find Papa, okay? Yeah, okay. And Alex, can you say, remember we practiced this, say, vote for Alex? Okay, we'll practice. A little stress. Say, pass it over. Oh, my gosh. Look, they found a tie for his head. I'm freaking out. Rome, Rome, it's Alex. You want to find Papa? I know where he is. I can't find him anywhere. Oh, my goodness. Rock on. Let's see it. It's crazy, you guys. We're going to find Papa. Let's go find him. Let me ask that question again. Who wants to win free stuff at the show tonight? There's only one way to get free stuff. Who is going to win? Who is this? Let me try your mouth, so you know where you're at, yeah, big tip, I'm trippin' on you. Wow. Hi, Katie. Hi. Hey. You look so good. I look so good. There she is. She's gorgeous. Are you excited? I put my hair like you. So did I. Look, I got bangs today, too. Wow. Okay, amazing. We're twins. We're twins. Don't forget to vote for me. I'm serious. In the audience, you have to vote. I will. I will. I will. I will. I will. I will. I will. Don't forget. Perfume. Most important. Energy drink. Second most important. Did you say you were going to take a pre-game shot? I know. I said I was going to take a shot, but I don't know if I should. Woo hoo. Outside of the paint, how are you feeling overall? I'm feeling good. I feel like I still want to do the dance better than I did it in dress rehearsals, so I just want to go out there and have fun and really just be whatever that means. I don't know who I'm changing. I don't know who I'm going to be. - I took myself while I foxtrot away. ♪ I'm singin' in the rain, just singin' in the rain ♪ You know that one? - Yeah. - Too tight. - Um, no, I think it's okay. I mean, hopefully I'm not doing that during the dance. So it should be okay. Look at that bun! - Yeah, yeah, yeah, I did something different. - Oh my god! You have a French twist! - I just wanted to be clean for the foxtrot, but I didn't wanna do the little ponytail. - I love your French twist. - Do I look crazy or no? - No, it's perfect. - Okay, cool, okay, cool. Try to match your bob. Cool, that's it. But I'll look better in my suit. - No, you look great. - Amazing, holy shit. - Yeah. - Great job. - Thanks. - So just get out of the way, you know? - What do you mean? - You mean like, just now dance a little. - Uh-huh. - You know? - Yeah, no, I'm gonna be great. - All right. - These are the shoes.

For the live show, okay? - Yeah. - But again, we can't even see-- - I'm blinging up over here. - Okay, yeah. I was gonna say, over the gloves. I'll see you there, okay? - Yeah. He likes the look. He loves it. Now we just have to make him like my dancing. That's the tricky part. ♪ I'm singing in the rain ♪ See, this already helps me like get more in the vibes. No, it's gonna be great.

This is a whole magic trick right here. - This is OG balance. - Would you ever cut it again? - Well, now that I have this trick, never. My biggest hesitation is that I can never have this clean look. - His alter ego with long hair. His name is Chad. He's giving, he plays for the Dodgers and we love Chad. Chad's cute. - How are you feeling with the dancers right now? - Feel good. Feel good. I was a little disconnected today. I don't know why.

Like why you're thinking about it so much? - I just haven't done it up to standards yet. - Why do you think that? Do you think it is, Val? - No, it's not. It's not up to the standard that she can do. Sure that I've seen her do in the studio many, many times. So we haven't done that on stage yet, but hopefully this is the one. - Okay. We'll come back to the vlog later. Bye.
