Oh. No. J.R. twisted his ankle during rehearsals. The soap opera star wanted people to know he works really hard to deliver flawless performances since he didn’t have prior dance experience. Yep, J.R. makes it look so easy that we forget he is a rookie. I loved this performance – entertaining, intense and sexy!

Len Goodman decided to play the devil’s advocate last night. Shut up! J.R. was in pain. He did great. Bruno claimed they were dressed up and ready to kill. Despite loving the role play, the judge called the celebrity dancer out on the posture which is essential for this dance. Carrie Ann Inaba agreed. Wow. Were the judges extra mean or what?

Score: 23 (8+7+8)
