'Dancing With The Stars': Will Sasha win the mirrorball this season? Fans say he and Justina are killing it

Justina Machado and Sasha Ferber's performance has people wondering if they will win this season because their every act seems to impress the audiences

Justina Machado has been impressing the judges since week one and fans seemed to have fallen in love with her as well. When the actress first came on the show, viewers did not know what to expect. However, once the music was on and she started dancing, people could not stop talking about how good she was. 

Right from her expressions to dance moves, people fell in love with the pair. After delivering a mindblowing performance in the first two weeks, the pair was back again for the third week and this time, with a Disney theme. Sasha chose Mary Poppins and the song they selected was 'Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious'.

The pair chose to perform Charleston. Justina was quick to add that she often felt like Mary Poppins because she took care of her siblings while growing up. Being the oldest of five, Justina has had her fair share of time when she was in charge of things. At the same time, the 'Jane The Virgin' actress is very close to her younger brother who moved in with her when he was 18. 

Seeing how the movie happened to relate to her life, Justina promised to deliver a good performance. As the music started, she was quick to get on the groove and perform the steps. Unfortunately, it was not enough to impress the judges. Seeing how well she performed in the first two weeks judges hoped something better from her. Carrie Ann Inaba thought the performance was clean and sharp. However, she was quick to add it would have been better if she had more energy. Derek Hough stated that he had hoped the song would match her personality. Unfortunately, after the performance, he felt things could have been better and the style could have been perfected. 

Similar views were shared by Bruno Tonioli who thought that the style had to been practiced more. Despite this, he enjoyed her performance. Carrie Ann gave Justina a 7 while Bruno and Derek gave a 6. Justina's total score was 19. Even though the judges thought some things could be changed in her performance, fans think the pair have a chance to win the show. 

"Is this the year Sasha wins his first mirrorball? He and Justina just keep killing it week after week," read one comment. "I am rooting for Justina, absolutely. I love that she is constantly smiling. I see what they are saying about her dance, tonight. I felt like it was disjointed, but part of that was SASHA'S fault, that was weird choreography. What was that swimming on the floor thing?" said another.

"I’m always smiling like a crazy person whenever I watch Justina and Sasha dance," read another comment. "Justina and Sasha have been on fire so far this season! I love everything about this couple!" said another. 

'Dancing With The Stars' airs on Mondays at 8 pm ET on ABC.
