It's back to the dance floor yet again, as the Dancing with the Stars Top 10 Celebs whip out their best tangoes and jives. Who thrived? Who stumbled?
As always, here's my rankings...
1. Sabrina Bryan
The Cheetah Girl once again takes my top spot with a spirited and sassy jive. Is there a doubt in anyone's mind that this girl is the year's best performer?
2. Helio Castroneves
That smile! This guy's adorable, and the dance was executed surprisingly well. With Julianne by his side, he may give that Cheetah girl a run for her money deep in the competition.
3. Jane Seymour
Unlike Albert Reed, who was crying about his long-dead grandfather, Jane Seymour had real reason to shed tears last night, but gamely held it together to deliver a spot-on tango. Her grace is inspiring.
4. Jennie Garth
As Carrie Ann said, this is what Dancing with the Stars is all about -- overcoming adversity to flourish. This was far and away Jennie's best dance of the season, and with something to prove, she showed she's in-it-to-win-it. While she probably won't take home the top prize, she is gaining confidence -- and earning respect.
5. Mel B
I thought this jive was a bit over-rated by the judges, but there's no question Mel has the bounce and desire to do well in the competition. Still, though, this jive was not as strong as Ms. Cheetah's.
6. Marie Osmond
Why do I love Marie Osmond so much? I was never a fan of the crazy Mormon before, but she's winning me over with her theatricality and infectious energy. Go Marie!
7. Cameron Mathison
This year's Ian Ziering continues to get slightly better, although he's still got a while to go before he'll be able to put up a true fight.
8. Floyd Mayweather
He's got the energy, no doubt, and that jump-roping start was a good launch to the performance, but he still has to refine his steps if he is going to stay in the ring. (Boxing metaphor -- sorry, couldn't help it!)
9. Mark Cuban
The determination was ingratiating for one week -- now it's just kind of tragic. Get this billionaire outta here.
10. Wayne Newton
Not nearly as bad as last week's debacle, this tango was still borderline unwatchable. And is it just me, or does Cheryl Burke seem like a completely different performer this year? Knowing she is not going to take home another trophy has taken a bit of the bounce out of her step. Buck up, Cheryl, there's always next year.
So, there it is. Check back in a little bit for my prediction of who will go home.

You're right, she IS the best dancer. But she was the best dancer going into the show and she's the best dancer now because she IS a dancer. She's been dancing and training for over a decade. Would we applaud a major league slugger for hitting the most home runs in an amateur softball game?
Where's the surprise in Sabrina being so far ahead of everyone else? The only surprise is that she hasn't gotten a 10 yet.
There are TWO pros in the Sabrina-Mark team, and DWTS is now a contest about who can even compete with the professional COUPLE.
