Hey guys! Welcome to my DWTS recap for TikTok night!

Dance: Cha Cha
Song: "She's a Bad Mama Jama (She's Built, She's Stacked)" by Carl Carlton
Judges' scores: 7, 6, 6 = 19/30
My score: 6
This was good. Something just felt very off & it was a little bit messy. I also feel like she was a bit stiff in some places.

Dance: Cha Cha
Song: "Work from Home" by Fifth Harmony feat. Ty Dolla Sign
Judges' scores: 6, 6, 6 = 18/30
My score: 7
No because I'm still pissed. They should still be there. They were one of my favorites.
As for the dance itself, it was a bit messy & she made a little mistake at the beginning but she recovered quickly. I also feel like she was a bit soft with her movements & she needed to hit the moves a bit harder.
I also loved the choreo.

Dance: Foxtrot
Song: "Manchild" by Sabrina Carpenter
Judges' scores: 7, 7, 7 = 21/30
My score: 7
I love how she's taking all the judges feedback & working on getting better. Her frame was lovely & she moved across the floor so elegantly. I loved the chore, too.

Dance: Tango
Song: "Anxiety" by Doechii
Judges' scores: 8, 8, 8 = 24/30
My score: 8
This was amazing! I loved everything about it. The frame was nice & solid. It was sharp & clean. She's a baddie.

Dance: Foxtrot
Song: "Yukon" by Justin Bieber
Judges' scores: 7, 8, 8 = 23/30
My score: 7
This was great. His footwork was nice & I loved the choreo. His frame needs some work & his butt stuck out a bit during the dance but it was definitely his best dance so far.

Dance: Tango
Song: "Gnarly" by Katseye
Judges' scores: 7, 7, 7 = 21/30
My score: 8
I've seen a lot of people saying that this wasn't her best dance & honestly, I think it was a lot better than people are making it out to be. I think that this was her best dance. Her frame does need a bit of work but it was sharp & clean & I loved the choreo. It's one of my favorite dances of the night.
Check out their dance: (43) Elaine Hendrix’s TikTok Night Tango | Dancing with the Stars - YouTube

Dance: Samba
Song: "Shake Ya Ass (Radio Edit)" by Mystikal
Judges' scores: 8, 8, 8 = 24/30
My score: 8
I liked this a lot more upon rewatch. It was just kind of chaotic to me & there was a lot going on. There was a lot of Samba content so, that's why. It looked a bit messy at time but it was still fun to watch. Mark served with the chore, as always.
Check out their dance: Whitney Leavitt’s TikTok Night Samba | Dancing with the Stars

Dance: Jazz
Song: "Like Jennie" by Jennie
Judges' scores: 8, 7, 7 = 22/30
My score: 8
This was definitely his best dance. It was fun to watch & I loved the choreo. I just still feel like he could move a bit bigger.
Check out their dance: Scott Hoying’s TikTok Night Jazz | Dancing with the Stars

Dance: Samba
Song: "Shake It to the Max (Fly) [Remix]" by Moily, Silent Addy, Skillibeng, & Shenseea
Judges' scores: 7, 8, 7 = 22/40
My score: 7.5
This is one of the dances I haven't stopped watching. I loved the choreo & her legs were nice. I just wish there was more bounce but I'm obsessed.

Dance: Foxtrot
Song: "Northern Attitude" by Noah Kahan & Hozier
Judges' score: 6, 6, 6 - 18/30
My score: 5.5
I do think this is one of his better dances. I love him & he is such a joy to watch. I love how genuine he is & how much he wants to be there. He's just kind of stiff & flat footed. His frame needs some work, too. Also, the camera grab was so cute.

Dance: Salsa
Song: "Million Dollar Baby" by Tommy Richman
Judges' scores: 8, 7, 7 = 22/30
My score: 7
This is probably his weakest dance so far, but it was still really good. I also liked the choreo. He was just a bit stiff in some places.

Dance: Quickstep
Song: "Pop Muzik" by M/Robin Scott
Judges' scores: 8, 7, 8 = 23/30
