Brook and Derek are up next, doing the sexy Rumba. Since this season is totally cursed, Brooke hurt her foot in the jitterbug last Monday and it got worse by Wednesday, forcing her to stay home for a day to wait for her doctor who makes housecalls. Turns out she has a tendon strain and would be better off resting for 7 days, which Brooke nixes. They have some stressful rehearsals and we go to a break before they dance, to increase the tension.
The dance. Well, as compared to many of her other dances, this doesn’t stack up, although it should in theory. Just something off. But, she does stick one leg up at 90 degrees and do a back bend while Derek holds her. I liked that! In the audience her boyfriend, David Charvet, is wearing as ascot. I blame the Jonas Brothers.
