For the stars of 'Dancing With The Stars', the competition continues to get tougher with each passing episode. The stars are now expected to up their game if they want to keep their spot in the competition safe. Of course,  staying at the top of the leaderboard helps too!

Last week, the show had 'Britney Week' where stars grooved to iconic Britney Spears songs. So now, Disney fans can get ready to celebrate this week as the show kicks of 'Disney Heroes Night'. Pop star and dancer JoJo Siwa and pro Jenna Johnson danced the Viennese Waltz to 'A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes' from 'Cinderella. Here's what the judges had to say about their performance.

Len Goodman pointed out that their performance reminded him of another song, 'Bare Necessities regarding their choreography. However, he noted that they danced beautifully and displayed fantastic footwork. Derek Hough pointed out that he'd previously mentioned that more isn't more, which was a great example. The performance was "clean and a breath of fresh air". Bruno Tonioli said that their performance felt like a dream come true and that the duo had created a Viennese Waltz for the 21st century. Carrie Ann Inaba pointed out that Siwa proved that girls could do anything guys can do. The duo scored the first 9s of the season, with a total of 35 out of 40.

Fans were thrilled to see that Siwa clocked in 9s and believed it was well deserved! "JOJO WITH THE FIRST 9S OF THE SEASON EVERYONE ELSE SHOULD BE EMBARRASSED TONIGHT #dwts" tweeted a fan. "I was in awe. I expected greatness from Jenna (which she definitely more than gave) but was iffy with the dance style and song choice because JoJo is very hyper most of the time, but this was just beautiful. I'm so mad they didn't get a 10. #dwts" added another. "JoJo and Jenna looked so good tonight as Prince Charming and Cinderella #DWTS" tweeted a fan. "Did i scream when jojo and jenna got 9s?? yes. yes i did. did my dog look at me like if i was insane? yes. yes she did #DWTS" exclaimed another.
