There were some amazing dances submitted for this premiere episode and I knew that it was going to be difficult to rank them. Again, it looks like a repeat of last season where a few people didn't submit a dance and will be starting the season off with a 0 average. Will they be able to redeem themselves?
Kaitlyn Bristowe was not who I was wanting to win Season 29. She was a great dancer, but her routines were not that all entertaining to me. It was actually weird to hear this song danced to an Argentine Tango. I've only ever heard it danced to a ballroom Tango. This Argentine Tango routine just didn't stand out to me as much as a lot of others did.
I don't believe that there is a dance that Riker Lynch did that I hate. While this might not be one of my favorites from him, it's still a good dance. He had a lot that blew me away and this was just sub-par to me.
This dance was one of my favorite from Season 22. As much as I enjoy Paige VanZant's dancing, I do have to give credit to Alan Bersten for stepping in at the last minute because Mark Ballas got injured. This was Alan Bersten's first performance dancing with a celebrity partner and he killed it.
It was risky to choose Contemporary as your Contestant's Choice dance. As someone who is adopted myself, I resonate so much with Jordan Fisher's story and this dance brought me to tears. It takes a lot for a Contemporary routine to impress me or even make me emotional and this one did just that.
JoJo Siwa only had a few dance routines that I actually enjoyed. She's an amazing dancer, but the routines just didn't do it for me. This was one that didn't stick out to me. I'm not a fan of the song so I think it took something away from the whole experience.
I had never seen or heard of Bhangra before this dance. This dance was absolutely amazing. I think the only reason this dance style was never used again was there isn't another dance that could compete with this one.
This was my second favorite dance of Season 10 and one of my all-time favorite Samba routines. There was no denying that Nicole Scherzinger was going to be a frontrunner. She was my favorite dancer from Season 10.
One of my all-time favorite Charleston routines. Jordan Fisher was just amazing all season long and my favorite. He had a few dances that I didn't care for, but most of them were amazing.
𝐈'𝐌 𝐒𝐎𝐑𝐑𝐘! Because neither of you submitted a dance, you each will receive a 0 for this first episode. I hope that you all submit a dance next episode to keep yourself safe.
