This week, the all-star celebs danced their hearts out after Melissa Rycroft‘s injury scare rocked the dance floor on Sunday. See how the dancers recovered!

Individual Guilty Pleasures

Kirstie Alley and Maks danced the quickstep to their guilty pleasure – Mrs. Robinson – for a total score of 25.5/30 (and a standing ovation from the audience)! “You got your boy toy where you wanted him,” Bruno said.

Kelly Monaco and partner Val Chmerkovskiy danced the samba to their guilty pleasure — Cher Lloyd’s “Want You Back” — for a total score of 24.5/30. “It was a tad on the raunchy side for me,” complained Len.

Emmitt Smith and partner Cheryl Burke danced the samba to their guilty pleasure — The Copacabana — for a total score of 29/30. Bruno said, “Turned on and you delivered maximum pleasure! It’s like the best party in the country!”

Gilles Marini and Peta danced the rumba to their guilty pleasure – Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You” — for a score of 29.5/30! “That was not a dance, that was master class theater! That was one of the best performances I’ve ever seen,” Bruno raved. “Let the baby making begin!” Carrie Ann screamed and then fell off her chair!

The Team Dances Freestyles To “Call Me Maybe”

While practicing with partner Tony Dovolani on Sunday, Melissa Rycroft got a herniated disc in her upper neck. “I’m on a lot of medication right now,” she joked. (Maybe she wasn’t joking…)

Shawn Johnson and Derek Hough‘s team danced to “Call Me Maybe” with no rules! Their team consisted of Tony & Melissa, Apolo Anton Ohno and Karina Smirnoff, and Sabrina Bryan and Louis Van Amstel. They danced as high school cheerleaders and football players and completely rocked it!

“The choreography, the way you introduced each other, it was almost impossible to distinguish the celebrities and the professionals,” Bruno said. The team got a score of 29.5/30!

How did you like tonight’s episode, HollywoodLifers? Are you excited to see the other team dance tomorrow night?
