Dancing with the Stars Season 29: Must be Finale!

Round 1: The Encore-- The contestants do their best dance again and kick it up a notch

 Kaitlyn and Artem danced an Argentine Tango to Toxic by Britney Spears-- Derek said Kaitlyn what a perfect dance to remind us that you are a contender for that trophy. Bruno said you took my breath away, and it was better than before. Carrie Ann said this was the dance where you went from being amazing to unforgettable. She said this is one of my top three favorite dances ever. I love this dance too! Definitely one of my faves this season and I have enjoyed watching this partnership so much. 
Score: 30/30

Nelly and Daniella danced a Samba to Rhythm of the Night by DeBarge-- Bruno said let's party with Nelly and Daniella. You have such a spontaneity. Carrie Ann said your journey is the most fascinating and has given the most joy. Derek said this show isn't just about technique. It's about moments, you're a moment maker. You connect with people at home. Nelly has definitely been a favorite for me because he is without question, an underdog. I love watching him challenge himself and smile, no one has fun like Nelly on the dance floor.  Score: 27/30

Nev and Jenna danced a Paso Doble to The Black Swan (Swan Lake)-- Carrie Ann said that dance was perfection. Every time you come out I know it's going to be amazing. Derek said I love the little change at the beginning. Derek said you kind of cat fished us all. Bruno said you created more intensity and you killed it. Nev seems to really have found his niche with dancing and it seems like he has found his true calling. This was amazing.  Score: 30/30

Justina and Sasha danced a Cha Cha to Respect by Aretha Franklin-- Derek said you are exploding with charisma and energy. So good well done! Bruno said you know how to shake those tailfeathers. You were almost too hot to trot. Carrie Ann said you know how to bring it every time. So much improvement to this dance and yes, Justina just has so much passion and fire that she brings to every dance. Score: 30/30

Round 2: The Freestyle!

Nelly and Daniella danced a freestyle to Savage and Hypnotize-- Bruno said we are in the presence of hip hop royalty. Carrie Ann said you give me hope for the future. You took hip hop, ballroom, and Latin and brought them together. They're worlds you normally wouldn't see together and you guys did that. I was in awe of this performance and I felt exactly what Carrie Ann said, hope! This was the ultimate tribute that they could have done for dance and for each other. Score: 30/30

Kaitlyn and Artem danced a freestyle to Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend-- Carrie Ann said that is my favorite movie of all time. That was incredible, I am so proud of you. Derek said I remember Chris Harrison announcing you on the Zoom call and then you're descending from the ceiling to the ballroom. Bruno said it was a showcase of Dancing with the Stars. This was a cool routine and very Kaitlyn.  Score: 30/30

It was show-stopping, inspired, and beautiful. Carrie Ann said it was like three dances in one, it was magical. Wow! That was spectacular. They gave it all. This was absolutely flawless.
