With Monday as Latin night on ABC's reality hit show "Dancing With the Stars," it should have been Latin soap star William Levy's week, right? It was.
As the actor and his pro partner Cheryl Burke took on the Argentine tango, Levy played every bit the part of a Latin lover with dance skills, wearing an unbuttoned tuxedo shirt. The judges thought he hit all the right marks — and with a twisted ankle to boot. Carrie Ann Inaba said the actor looked like a "Latin-dancing James Bond." 29/30
Here's how everyone else fared:
Katherine Jenkins and Mark Ballas
Tying Levy at the top was opera singer Jenkins, who also danced the Argentine tango. The judges thought she was perfection and gave her one point shy of a perfect score for her efforts. Head judge Len Goodman said, "This, for me, was like a rose: It had beauty ... but underneath was sharp." 29/30
Maria Menounos and Derek Hough
The TV journalist salsa'd her way to a great performance. The judges told her their dance was passionate, hot and had just the right amount of spice. The pair's routine ended with a hot kiss on the lips. "I don't think you needed the kiss! The salsa is all about the illusion of passion. Don't go at it right in front of us," Inaba said. 27/30
Donald Driver and Peta Murgatroyd
The NFL hot shot danced the Argentine tango, and the judges praised him for his control and execution. Judge Bruno Tonioli said he did a "fantastic job." 27/30
Roshon Fegan and Chelsie Hightower
The Disney star pulled off a routine that wasn't exactly G-rated. But he kept it clean. Goodman told him he moved like "a young guy with his first car." Inaba joked that he was "sexy in a Disney way." 26/30
Jaleel White and Kym Johnson
The childhood TV star danced the samba and bared a pretty impressive six-pack in the process. The judges were impressed by his moves, with Goodman telling him, "Your bum was going like you were chewing toffee." 24/30
Gladys Knight and Tristan MacManus
The soul legend shook her stuff to the samba, and even though the judges were lukewarm on it, they still praised her. Tonioli told her she was magic, while Goodman said her moves were "simple, but effective." 22/30
Melissa Gilbert and Maks Chmerkovskiy
Gilbert did the salsa — a tough feat considering she was injured last week. In her rehearsal segments, she danced around in a neck brace and hard hat. The judges liked her stick-to-itiveness, and Inaba told her it was wonderful to see her gain confidence. Tonioli said she lacked an element of control. "I saw excellent parts and parts that weren't so good," Goodman said. 21/30
Gavin DeGraw and Karina Smirnoff
The pop singer rounded out the bottom. He said in his rehearsal segment that he hoped to continue relying on votes from his fans to keep him in the game. He danced the samba, and the judges weren't too impressed with his moves. "I don't know whether to laugh or cry," Tonioli said before adding, "I actually enjoyed it." The other judges said it was missing key elements. 19/30
