You know what? It may seem an odd week to say it, but I'm definitely getting an increase of respect for Lacey. Two weeks ago she had to stand there and listen to three judges - who knew a great deal less about the dance she'd just performed than she did - tell her she was doing it wrong. Last week, she took that advice and ran like hell with it, and gave Lance a Jive that really made it clear that he can do this stuff.
And this week... well. I'm not sure it was a good decision to do the Rumba without shoes, but I'm not ready to say it wasn't, because I thought that dance was absolutely beautiful.* And would you look at Lance? He looked gorgeous, his lines, his *arms* - last week he occasionally forgot about the 'spare' arm, this time he was complete. Same with the Cha Cha Cha, he looked like a dancer. Those hips! It was, admittedly, easy to be distracted, guh! He really looked like a dancer, and that has to be down to Lacey.
It looked as though Lacey was mostly taking charge of the choreography for the group number - presumably Edyta had to concentrate on working with Cody, and Tony was off in New York with Susan - and she's obviously not wise to all the tricks for groups yet. Not her fault, though, that Susan was useless. It was sad, really, you could see Lance and Lacey, and Cody and Edyta, watching Susan and thinking "We're so screwed". They were right.
I just hope the worst dancer of the bunch is the one who goes home this week.
* Is it heresy to say, I prefer it to Joey's Rumba? Because I do.
