After ten weeks of competitive dancing spanning a variety of styles from the Cha Cha to the Quickstep to the Viennese Waltz and more, Alfonso Ribeiro & Witney Carson, Bethany Mota & Derek Hough, Janel Parrish & Valentin Chmerkovskiy and Sadie Robertson & Mark Ballas remain in the competition, but only one couple will be crowned "Dancing with The Stars" Season 19 champion.
The four remaining couples competed in two exciting rounds of dance. In the first round, each couple took on the "Judges Pick" and performed a dance they previously performed this season that the judges had selected. In the second round, the couples took on the biggest competitive dance of the season, a Freestyle routine featuring special effects, additional dancers and unexpected surprises. At the end of night, one couple was eliminated based on the previous weeks' viewer votes combined with the judges' scores from the previous Monday night.
In the Judges Pick round, Broadway vet Janel Parrish and her partner Val Chmerkovskiy performed a Samba, one of their lowest scoring dances of the season. Despite being injured during today's rehearsal, Parrish and partner Val earned a score of 37 out of 40 this time around.
In the Freestyle round, Janel danced a stunning contemporary dance with her professional partner Val Chmerkovskiy which earned the couple a perfect score.
Check out both performances below!
