Dancing with the Stars Recap: You Shook Me All Night Long

So I was going to skip the recap this week because quite frankly I’m exhausted and last week’s episode was just so-so. But there are SO. MANY. THINGS. GOING. ON. It’s Rock Week!

My only guess is that this girl is a cross between Elvira and the licorice man from Candy Land, who by day runs an escort service. I’m just sayin’. Also in this section, a “Stitch Witch” (not sure at all what that means), and some kind of British go-go dancer. Come on people.
