The Top 10 Finalists
The original field of 20 has been halved, which means the remaining five guys and gals will compete with new partners. Sniff.
Kupono Aweau
After losing Ashley Valerio in the second week, the Hawaiian hottie was paired with fellow contemporary dancer Kayla Randomski. But his next pairing—with Randi—proved to be his last.
Brandon Bryant
The contemporary dancer from Utah has been riding the hot tamale train since day one with Janette Manrara, even winning over harsh critic Mia Michaels. Does Melissa match Brandon's fire?
Randi Evans
Evan Kasprzak found his perfect partner in the Utah jazz dancer—height, style, bubbly personalities...they even share a name!—so it breaks our hearts to see these two torn asunder. Especially since Randi and her new partner, Kupono, were sent packing.
Jason Glover
The judges sent home the California contemporary dancer's original partner this week, but he performed brilliantly with Jeanine.
Janette Manrara
The Miami hottie consistently added "fire and spice" to "powerhouse" Brandon Bryant's performance, raved Mary Murphy. Surprisingly, her new powerhouse partner, Ade, was almost no match for the salsa dancer!
Jeanine Mason
The competition's youngest contestant survived the ousting of partner Phillip Chbeeb, and her new pairing with Jason benefited both dancers.
Ade Obayomi
Parting is such sweet sorrow! Without his Juliet, Melissa Sandvig, Romeo couldn't bring the funk to new partner Janette and ended up in the bottom four.
Kayla Radomski
The Colorado jazz-contemporary dancer shocked the judges by ending up in the bottom six with both partners Max Kapitannikov (eliminated in week two) and Kupono Aweau. This week, at least, the critics' darling fared better with Evan.
Melissa Sandvig
When Brandon couldn't lift the ballerina to the same heights as Ade, she shared the solo stage with her former partner.
