  2. CHRISHELL STAUSE SEASON + PLACEMENT: SEASON 29 || 8TH PLACE BEST DANCE: PASO DOBLE || 26 OUT OF 30 WORST DANCE: TANGO || 13 OUT OF 30 FAVOURITE DANCE: CONTEMPORARY - "STARS" Chrishell Stause is an actress, best known for her roles in daytime soap operas like All My Children and Days of Our Lives. She gained mainstream recognition following her appearance on Netflix's Selling Sunset. Following the success of the show, she joined the 29th season of Dancing With The Stars in 2020, aka the pandemic season. She was the lucky celebrity to get paired with Gleb Savchenko, who, in my opinion, hadn't had a strong contender since Jana Kramer - if we are being honest, she should have been his last partner standing in this rankdown. At the start of the season, she struggled with confidence, which, in turn, affected her ability to hit and execute the elements of the dances. However, she kept improving week after week, eventually coming into her own by Week 4 despite the lackluster choreography from Gleb. Her first moment of the season came when she perfromed a contemporary routine to Grace Potter's "Stars", dedicated to her parents, which showcased her vulnerability and made the routine particularly special, in my opinion. The week after her contemporary routine, she delivered her best performance on Halloween/Villain night with a Paso Doble, showcasing significant improvement in technique compared to Week 1. During the 8th week of the season, she danced her final dance which was a Viennese Waltz to "Love on the Brain", which the choreography featured Gleb's signature sultriness but it didn't measure up to his and Jana's Argentine Tango. Chrishell ended up finishing in 8th place, which makes a Top 30 placement even more impressive. For her success in this year's rankdown, all credit goes to Megan for getting her to this point. While I wish I could have left her vulnerable for Megan to save, once again, I just couldn't justify it with the options that I was left with. SAVING: AMANDA KLOOTS

  5. "PERFECT ISN'T EASY" (OLIVER AND COMPANY) Originally had cut this song where it would have ranked at 250 but it has since been brought back & it now have a finish in the Top 150 so that's very impressive. If it's fine with our host, Steven, I shall re-use my write-up : There's a few songs that I like being nominated, but I must save one of the superior reprises, in my opinion. As always, we must also cut one song, so I am going with one that I have no connection to or any recollection from ever hearing or seeing - the song in question is "Perfect Isn't Easy" from "Oliver and Company". The song is introduced in the film when the audience is introduced to Georgette as she transforms herself. This song helps paint a portrait of Georgette, who is very much into herself, living the grand life, and winning all these titles. The song itself gives me an Old Hollywood vibe, which I do like, and I think it goes perfectly with the scene. Overall, it's not one that I can justify saving, so, therefore, it's being eliminated from the rankdown, once again. SAVING: WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?

  15. CHARLI D'AMELIO SEASON + PLACEMENT: SEASON 31 || WINNER BEST DANCES: FOXTROT, JIVE, PASO DOBLE, TANGO, VW, FREESTYLE || 40 OUT OF 40 WORST DANCES: CHA CHA CHA, QUICKSTEP || 32 OUT OF 40 FAVOURITE DANCES: CONTEMPORARY, ARGENTINE TANGO, FOXTROT, PASO DOBLE Charli D'Amelio is a social media creator who is best known for her TikTok, where she is one of the most followed creator on the app. Her TikTok popularity paved the way for her own reality show on Hulu, titled "The D'Amelio", which I will assume is similar to Keeping Up With The Kardashians The show's success lead to her starring in another reality show with her sister, this time on Snapchat - who knew Snapchat had TV shows, titled "Charli vs. Dixie". In 2022, she joined the cast of the 31st season of Dancing With The Stars, alongside her mother, Heidi D'Amelio. She was paired with Mark Ballas, who returned as a professional dancer after his appearance in Season 25, where he was the runner-up with Lindsey Stirling. From the moment she was partnered with Mark, it was obvious that the show and its producer had her pegged as the frontrunner and their choice to win it all. One side note about their partnership - I will always find it awkward and uncomfortable when the show pairs an 18-year-old contestant with a pro who is 18 years their senior, but that's just my opinion. From the moment the season started, Charli was delivering impressive dances, especially given how early we were in the competition, but this was not surprising considering her dance background. And while the dances were technically perfect, I struggled to connect with her as it felt that she prioritized executing all the elements of the dance rather than letting her personality shine through. While I didn't always resonate with her performances like the judges or the rest of Idolforums, it was her contemporary dance to "when's the party is over" that truly caught my attention - she finally let her guard down and showed some vulnerability. The praise she received for this dance was well deserved, and was deserving of a perfect score. While she fell just short of a perfect score with a score of 39, she eventually earned her first perfect score with the Foxtrot the following week. She went on to received five perfect scores ; Personally, I believe her Argentine Tango also deserved a perfect score. I must admit by the end of the season, I was hoping for a surprising win for Gabby & Val, whom I personally preferred over Charli & Mark throughout the competition. This isn't to say that Charli & Mark didn't deserve the win, but I was more invested in Gabby & Val's journey. But as we know, there was no shocking win and as many anticipated from Week 1, they ultimately won the mirrorball trophy. At the end of the day, she may one of the reigning queen of TikTok and of DWTS, she won't be the reigning queen of this rankdown. As we are getting near the end of the rankdown, I had a feeling she could dominate the final ranking to take it all. She certainly would have deserved it, but one thing this rankdown has shown us - especially this year - is that we can't have nice things! And considering two of my top favourites were cut this round and my save almost got cut as well, I have nothing else to lose at this point. SAVING: ARIANA MADIX
