Network: ABC, airs Mondays, Tuesdays
Original Telecast: May 14th, 2012
Unbelievable is how I would describe tonight’s DANCING WITH THE STARS Semi Finals. No one received less than a nine and Bruno Tonioli was giving out tens like candy! By far the closest competition in DWTS history, it’s anyone’s game who will win at this point.
The couples had two dances to deliver tonight and boy did they deliver! Maria Menounos & Derek Hough, again, scored a perfect 30, as did William Levy & Cheryl Burke. But right on their heels, Donald Driver & Peta Murgatroyd scored a 29, and so did Katherine Jenkins & Mark Ballas. The lowest score given tonight was a 27, given to Jenkins & Ballas after she miffed the last step in her Salsa due to a back injury. Still, an honorable performance and something she should be proud of even if it turns out to be her last dance. Here, we go…who will make it to the finals. Tune in and find out!
Donald Driver (NFL player) and his partner Peta Murgatroyd
For such a big guy he is light on his feet. Len Goodman said he was a big, rough, tough cream puff. Carrie Ann Inaba called him dreamy. Bruno Tonioli thought his Waltz was done in a very gentle manner.
Scores: Inaba – 9, Goodman – 9, Tonioli – 10, Harland – 9
Katherine Jenkins (singer) and her partner Mark Ballas
She always has the right attitude when dancing. Goodman stated, “You can dance!” Inaba called her Quickstep an A+ dance. Tonioli called it outstanding.
Scores: Inaba – 10, Goodman – 9, Tonioli – 10, Harland – 10
William Levy (actor) and his partner Cheryl Burke
He is intense and so debonair. Goodman thought his Tango was overall terrific. Inaba told him to be careful. Tonioli thought it was full of magnetism.
Scores: Inaba – 9, Goodman – 9, Tonioli – 10, Harland – 10
Maria Menounos (TV host) and her partner Derek Hough
This was a dance seemingly made for her. Goodman called her Argentine Tango fabulous. Inaba said good job. Tonioli said it was beyond his expectations.

Jungle hot! Goodman concurred, calling him the hunk with the junk in his trunk. Tonioli told him he had bun envy. Inaba thought his Samba was freaking amazing.

Who’s Going Home: This is the hardest week to call ever, but if I had to say adios to someone it would be Driver.
