‘Dancing With the Stars’ 2015: Rumer Willis Gets Two Perfect Scores In Week 8 of Season 20

— -- Actress Rumer Willis had a perfect night tonight on ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars” after two rounds of competition on America’s Choice night. Two stars will be eliminated tomorrow just one week shy of the semi-finals.

Last week’s elimination of consistent high-scorer Willow Shields shocked judges, fans and the ballroom audience, and the actress cried when her name was announced.

Tonight’s show had the remaining six couples performing an individual routine, with styles, songs and setting chosen by fans on social media. They each also performed a second dance, where each couple was joined by an eliminated dance pro or member of the “Dancing” troupe.

Individual Routines

Noah Galloway: The U.S. Army veteran and double-amputee’s tango drew praise for the judges, even as they acknowledged that he couldn’t perform the tango exactly as required because of his missing arm and leg. Head judge Len Goodman said he liked the performance, overall, but would have preferred to see more intensity between Galloway and pro partner Sharna Burgess. Julianne Hough agreed with Goodman about Galloway’s restrictions but said she appreciated his speed. Carrie Ann Inaba was impressed with the innovation of the routine. “It was very elegant,” she said, adding: “It was a bit blocky. I know it’s very hard to avoid that.” Bruno Tonioli liked the performance. “You even managed to maintain the frame. How you did that I have no idea … I mean, come on, guys! That was good!” Galloway earned three 8s and a 7, for a total of 31 out of a possible 40 points.

Chris Soules: The “Bachelor” star’s contemporary routine drew unanimous praise from judges. “Well, you guys are just pulling out stops at exactly the right time. I’ve gotta say, Chris, to me, you win the award for most improved this season … I’m so impressed. I’m so grateful that you’re here,” she said. Tonioli said he liked the “new, different shades of Chris,” calling his performance emotive and “tastefully sexy.” He did caution Soules to think more about using his entire body when he was performing this dance style. Inaba cheered, telling Soules it was “by far, your best dance.” Goodman agreed, adding: “Well done.” Soules earned two 9s and two 8s, for a total of 34 points.

Riker Lynch: The R5 band member’s powerful Viennese Waltz drew high praise from the judges. “You were like a raging torrent of emotions. Wow! What intensity and yet such control of execution,” Tonioli said. Goodman said “it was big it was bold it was full on and yet you still kept clarity of movement,” but drew boos from the audience when he said he would have liked to see more dancing in hold. Hough was impressed. “For me, that was your best dance.” Inaba had one comment: “The question tonight is, are you semi-final worthy? For me, hell yeah!” Lynch earned three 10s and a 9, for a total of 39 points.mn

Robert Herjavec: The “Shark Tank” star’s contemporary routine was a big hit with judges – especially since Herjavec and his pro partner delivered a fan-requested kiss during the routine. “You didn’t need a wind machine up there; you‘ve got a big fan in me and that was well done!” a smiling Goodman said. Hough and Inaba said they believed Herjavec “upped” his game. “The way that you two danced was magic …,” Hough added. Tonioli, with his trademark animated enthusiasm, added: “It was like watching a deodorant commercial. ‘Use me; you get the girl!’” he said, adding that his comment was “a good thing.” Herjavec earned three 8s and a 9, for a total of 33 points.
