Who went home on ‘Dancing with the Stars: The Next Pro’ tonight? Week 6 results revealed
‘Dancing with the Stars: The Next Pro’ Episode 6 saw Witney Carson as the guest judge. It featured the remaining five dancers: Nina Mayster, Selena Hamilton, Adele Zaikman, Allen Genkin, and AJ Pritchard. The episode titled “But Can You Teach? Coaching Superfans with Witney Carson” also featured Mark Ballas and Shirley Ballas as regular judges. After her arrival, Witney shared the challenge for the episode, “Now it’s time to tackle the most fundamental skill you’ll need to Dancing With the Stars.” The task was to teach a ballroom routine to amateur dancers in two days.
The pairings for the latest episode were chosen randomly. Jeremy Urann was paired with Selena (for a quickstep), Zaira Yzabelle was paired with Allen (for a waltz), Jay Wyson was matched with Nina (for a foxtrot), Anthony Riccardo was paired with Adele (for a tango), and Bailey McKnight was paired with AJ (for a Viennese waltz). While Adele was strict with her student, Selena worked with Jeremy to get the moves right. On the second day of rehearsals, Witney was present during the sessions along with Mark and Shirley. During their performances, Nina and Jay were up first. Shirley noted that Nina welcomed Jay warmly in the studio, but criticized the footwork. Mark pointed out the couple’s frame.
Adele and Anthony were the next pair to perform. Mark appreciated Adele’s strict teaching style, while Shirley praised the choreography and called their routine “fierce.” However, she expected more fun from their performance. Witney also appreciated Adele’s teaching and the choreography. AJ and Bailey performed their Viennese Waltz. Witney felt that it was “beautiful” but expected more emotion from AJ. Mark and Shirley also praised their performance. Allen and Zaira were next. “This is a partnership that’s filled with beauty,” stated Shirley. But she also pointed out the mistakes and where they needed improvement. Mark talked about how “solid” the duo’s work was and how they managed to do all that in two days.
The last pair was Selena and Jeremy, with their quickstep. Jeremy’s energy surely caught Whitney’s eye, but she said Selena’s choreography lacked quickstep content. However, Mark said it was fun, while Shirley also said Selena’s dance couldn’t capture the dance enough. Later in the episode, the judges announced two dancers who were in danger: Nina and Selena. Before announcing the eliminated contestant, Shirley stated that it had been a difficult decision, as both of them “lacked knowledge.” She then revealed that Nina was eliminated from the competition. After her elimination, Nina confessed to the cameras, “It sucks. It hurts. I haven’t cried like this in a while. Dancing for 10 years, I didn’t value myself as a dancer, and all of that changed and I am better than I came in here being. And I know my worth.” The remaining four dancers made it to the ‘DWTS: The Next Pro’ semi-finals, which will air next week.
