But at the end of the night, one dancing team is sent home and three will go on to battle it out to win the top prize. Read on to find out what happened during the performance night.
Just like in past seasons, the first dance style is chosen by the judges. Their choices are the dance styles which the couple showed difficulty in executing during the entire “Dancing with Stars” Season 23. The second dance style is a freestyle routine. Most of the time, this routine is the deciding factor of the judges on who would win the entire show.

Laurie Hernandez and Val Chmerkovskiy are the obvious crowd favorite. They perform pasodoble, which played to Laurie’s strengths. Their freestyle is also a fresh view for the judges. They scored 38 and 40.
