This is the Caroline I want to remember, happy, dancing like a pro dancer, her face lit up with that beautiful smile. She was born to have fun. Who, in their wildest dreams, could possibly imagine that she was so troubled? There are people that did not even know you (I am one of those people) who will miss your fun personality. Rest in Peace.

@@LL-zb1mn Who knew that seemingly vivacious confident girl was in reality so emotionally fragile. It`s a cliche yet no less true. She did have SO MUCH to live for. This court case in March wouldn't have gone against her. Whatever the reasoning behind events during that night her on/off boyfriend hadn't pressed charges and was requesting those brought by police were dropped. Judge Julia Newton should take a long hard look at herself. As should the corporate media. Who excel at only one thing. Harassment of those least able to defend themselves.

People saying this isn't a 40 worthy dance are wrong! Yes I do think the energy waned a little towards the end but I think the techniques were all there and it gave me goose bumps! I saw this and it screened 40 to me! It was a very underwhelming semi though!

[@crloscee]

Am I the only one who felt a bit underwhelmed by pretty much every performance tonight? I thought Caroline's Salsa was great but it did not look like a 40-worthy dance. At most two 10's in my opinion. Not all four though. I guess the producers told Craig to take out his 10 paddle because it is already the semifinal and they can't go to the Finals without someone getting a 40. I also really liked Frankie's Argentine Tango but it also wasn't as great as it could have been. Call me crazy, but I think Pixie would have made this semifinal A LOT better. Her dancing, to me, is more natural and more polished which makes for more beautiful dances. Sad I didn't get to see her do the American Smooth. I bet that would have been a 40-performance. All the dances from tonight were just.. not that good.

[@aaronwilkins4459]

This is the best salsa in strictly history so not sure why you think it wasn't a 40. Pffffttt

[@FLAVEEARR]

Whilst I'm not belittling ado lines amazing capability or this fantastic dance, personal opinion would be that this slowed down version just didn't work at all for the salsa.... If they had kept the original tempo for the song I feel like this dance would have flowed more. It almost looked at time that they were having to hold back because they were a bit too fast and this they would have lost track of music. That just doesn't work for me. But I would still given it a very high scores
