It’s “A Night at the Movies” on this week’s episode of Dancing with the Stars! The remaining nine couples were given the task of performing a dance routine inspired by different movie genres.
Nikki Bella and her pro dance partner Artem Chigvintsev, collectively known as #TeamSmackDown, opened this week’s show with an Argentine Tango dance routine to “Dernière danse” by Indila for their film theme foreign.
Despite some insecurites and being vulnerable during her rehearsal, Nikki scored a sweep of 9’s across the judge board – including from this week’s guest judge Shania Twain. The judges praised #TeamSmackDown’s performance for its elegance and romantic translation.
