Skai gets another song I love mashed with a style that doesn’t make sense. Ugh I also hope this isn’t a reoccurring theme either.


Yeah idk what’s going on here :dead: Love the song but would have liked to see Skai get a better fitting song for the dance.

Thanks for posting Wally! 😄 

 

Guessing Vernon’s is a typo because it’s the dance he had this week. Idk what dance style they’d use for that yet...I feel like Paso would be most natural but I could see Cha-Cha or Tango.

You're welcome! :hug: 

 

Mhmmm yeah Vernon is a mistake. Oooh I never thought of a Paso for that song but i could see it working for a Tango or Cha-Cha possibly.

Skai becoming the celeb with the wacky song/style combinations. :dead: 
 

Alan already had some crazy song/style match-ups last year with Hannah and now it’s happening again. He can’t catch a break. :haha:

Weren’t the press releases last year constantly wrong about styles? I remember Wally having to adjust everyone’s score like 2 or 3 times every week because the routines weren’t always correct. :rofl:

Ughh yeah. It was a common thing nearly every other week. 😐 :haha:

But also,  looking at the dance style spoilers, I'm kinda disappointed that not everyone got the opposite genre than what they did week 1. It would've been nice to see everyone tackle 1 Latin and 1 Ballroom dance before the first elimination like they did in some of older seasons when there was no week 1 elimination.

Ugh yeah I always wish they would do this with the couples like they used to. :(

I was nervous about having some drafts with only 2 picks as opposed to the others getting 3, but I think they all turned out good! So I'm hoping everyone who got 2 picks are happy with their choices there. :haha:

 

(I should have given them each judges as draft picks and then as soon as they make a terrible decision I could eliminate them)

I had no idea he has been convicted of rape before and has multiple reports against him! I am surprised that I have never heard this news. 

I heard he was accused but I didn’t know he was convicted of it. 😐
