Janel Parrish’s Paso Doble and Argentine Tango on DWTS

Janel Parrish and DWTS partner Val Chmerkovskiy impressed the judges last night when they danced the paso doble and Argentine tango to Calvin Harris’s song “Blame”.

Janel Parrish danced a perfect paso doble.  Carrie Ann thought the dance was so good that she wanted more.  Len said it was “just enough of everything to keep me satisfied”.  He loved Janel’s technique and performance.  Julianne felt like Janel and Val were one and that Janel is “in it to win it”.  Bruno thought it was “fierce, bold, powerful like an untamed force of nature”.  He said Janel set the stage on fire.

All the judges gave Janel 10s, giving their dance a perfect score of 40.


Janel also danced the Argentine tango in the unplugged round.  Carrie Ann thought Janel is a dynamic performer, but her lift was ungraceful.  Len thought it was “full of intensity, full of passion”.  He agreed with Carrie Ann’s criticism, but said Janel is incredible dancer.  Bruno loved the lifts, which he thought were expressive.

Carrie Ann and Len gave 9s, while Julianne and Bruno gave 10s.  Their total score for the Argentine tango was 38 out of 40.


On the show, Janel and her family talked about relocating from Hawaii to Los Angeles and Janel’s rise to fame from playing Cosette in Les Miserable to being cast as Mona on Pretty Little Liars

Janel’s Pretty Little Liars co-star Brant Daugherty said “There’s nobody who deserves success more than Janel. She’s so gracious and talented of course, but really she’s just such a hard worker”.

So awesome to see Janel nailing all the dances on DWTS.  Don’t forget to vote for Team Janelskiy and watch next week’s DWTS when hopefully Janel will win the Mirror Ball trophy!
