A week ago, Cristian de la Fuente was in the hospital. Now, he and partner Cheryl Burke are in first place on Dancing with the Stars.
Following a combined score of 57 (out of a possible 60) for their tango and mambo, this pair took over the overall points lead on season six of the show. de la Fuente summed up his effort with a simple: “No pain, no mirror-ball trophy.”
As for the other performances…
- Kristi Yamaguchi and Mark Ballas: 55/60 (quickstep and samba)
- Mario and Karina Smirnoff: 53/60 (Viennese waltz and jive)
- Marissa Jaret Winokur and Tony Dovolani: 50/50 (foxtrot and mambo)
- Jason Taylor and Edyta Sliwinska: 52/60 (tango and samba)
