velocityDC festival Looks like Mya nailed it last night. We want to hear from you - What did you think of the routine? Did you vote?

[brightcoveplayer 49589544001]For weeks, Mya has endured critique after frustrating critique from judge Len Goodman on Dancing with the Stars. If he wasn't complaining about her routines lacking content, it was that they were too theatrical.

I thought they were fantastic, and am looking forward to a great outcome tonight. (And yes, I am biased ... if they make it to the finals, TWA will probably be included in next week's Monday night DWTS, along with Baakari Wilder.) But I also thought Derek's futuristic paso was enrancing - amazing - yes, actually, "genius."

Victoria, you are spot on. We loved Mya and Dmitiri last night and hope that they make it to the finals as well. Unfortunately, we'll miss tonight's DWTS so keep us posted.

BTW - Thanks for all the comments! You are on fire today. :-)
