Xochitl is a winner! The way her and Val puts so much into dances! At this point give them that mirror ball!!!🫶 but her being the final two to go home gave me a heart attack never do that again😂

[@Willow-pp7yq]

Agreed

[@lynnngo7256]

I agree. She’s the best partners he’s ever had. She really brings out his Latin style.

[@jamiehlchen]

there was no way she could go home after scoring two perfect dances in one week

[@LXS1303]

Slow and languid. May win given the competition but she can't dance.

[@Dancer17279]

People that don’t dance will never understand just how difficult it is, but ESPECIALLY the Samba. Someone who’s never had dance training shouldn’t be able to dance a Samba like that after one week. This is your winner right here.

[@andydv27]

I absolutely LOVED this dance!!! Xochitl always brings the energy!! Val always brings the heat!!! This was by far one of my favorite dances of this season!! Their Samba, Salsa and Paso Doble were just golden!!! Perfect scores all around!!! That's what's up!!!

[@subwaysurfers1508]

She’s really amazing at giving 1000% percent and emoting joy.

[@juanhung-lo6959]

I can't believe for one second she's only 17. Brings back memories of Shawn & Mark. The best part is, she's having so much fun doing it.

[@zahra9813]

What a samba! What a dance! Xochitl you killed it! There was no way in hell that you were going to go home. You and Ariana (interesting how it came down to you two) have the strongest fanbases this season. And I have a really good feeling YOU are going to win Ms. Xochitl! You and Val have been the highlight for me this entire season! You got my 200 votes. #TeamXV for the win!!!! 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆

[@echostarpals]

Literally phenomenal. The chemistry, the steps and the way they're just having fun! Love it 🎉

[@AlexDisney23]

That’s Samba prove that Xochitl deserve to be a winner of this season of dancing with the stars!

[@sammorgan8516]

Wow! always thought Maks was the best dancer on DWTS, but I think little brother Val has taken over. And that little Xochitl is an awesome dancer..Val knows just how to help her shine. She's just precious.

[@michaelvega6646]

I've seen a lot of great Samba Dances in this show and this one is one of them

[@MelanieEvangelista1]

She's just got it!!! The moves, flexibility while dancing, like she's got it!!! I have faith she's going to win this!!!

[@ariannea2899]

guys please xotchitl has done everything to possibly win this thing. she deserves it the most putting up with so much injuries but still going is what a true winner is.

[@ariannea2899]

[@giovana4228]

I know, I'm so torn between them and Pasha and Ariana but in terms of dance quallity... it's always been team XV for me.

[@lynnngo7256]

PERFECT SCORE!!! SPECTACULAR!!!! What a FLAWLESS dance! Outstanding performance!! Val and all of the professional dancers are magnificent! That was a HARD dance, the song was even tricky because it was a remix. Only being 17 years old, she dances with such elegance and charisma.

[@giovana4228]

I don't think I've ever seen a better samba (and hey, I'm from Brazil hahaha). That was AMAZING!!!!

So often you can tell the coaches are leading them. But not these two! It looks entirely like theyre dancing TOGETHER. Xochitl puts in so much flair that if i didnt know better i wouldn't be able to tell who the coach is!

[@simply_me_sg922]

She’s so good. She looks like a pro!

God damn Xochitl is really pretty and talented.

[@phoenix_flowers]

That moment at 1:26 between the two of them just beautifully displays their partnership and I'm here for it.

[@ileanagodinez7767]

xochitl and val definitely had the closest relationship out of any of the duos this year and i think it totally translated into their chemistry in the ballroom. they kept saying xochitl redefined fun for him at work and i think they’re totally right-it really seemed like val enjoyed himself this season more than he ever has since he became a pro. i love how fond and protective he is of her and how much xochitl admires and trusts him! such a sweet duo

[@melissatercero3645]

Loved this dance she can totally dance. I am rooting that they’re going to win dancing with the stars because she’s amazing. Love her!!😍❤️

[@lifegrip]

Wow such a great dance from Xochitl and great choreography from Val! They’re the only ones who got perfect scores for both their dances and they definitely deserved it. Can’t wait for the finale, I so hope they win it!

I did not expect 5 people at the semi finals I expect xovhitl, Jason, Ariana and Jason at the finale of DWTS i feel like we been played.

This song, done to the lyrics of Gloria Estefan Conga. But which came first I wonder.

[@Kevin-bb9qz]

LOOOOOVED IT

[@jennahotz8755]

That’s Chloe Lukasiak!!

[@Sonika377]

Being from South America, I feel this samba had some slow tempo, rather than that It was a amazing samba ...

[@ronniepeterson6911]

Xochitl Gomez and Val Chmerkovskiy to make sure Gloria Estefan to come and shake your body to the "Samba" by a member of The Miami Sound Machine. ABC and Disney+ was right away when the commercial and program highlights comes on in promos or bumpers. But when DTWS returns to Disney+ they'll be no commercials but just 1 hour and 59 minutes. Anyway, according to Jordyn Jones, Carrie Ann knows it was spectacular. What would they expect maybe Jordyn Jones and Val Chmerkovskiy and Jayden Bartels and Mark Ballas? They're for DWTS Juniors. Oh Well, Derek Love it since the content and Bruno thinks Xochitl's the samba diva. She's getting all the 10s said DM, And its deserved said JK and She deserved the mirror to win the Mirror Ball IMO. That three 10s for a total of 30 put her in last place b ut it doesn't make them in the finale till......

[@Bphillips1984]

Why was this a perfect score? I think it deserves all 9s but not 10s.

[@lhale9176]

[@timmyclary0122]

Here’s my do’s and don’ts I want for the finale: DO: Vote for Xochitl she’s the best and unbeatable, she’ll be next champion at youngest age like Charli D’Amelio and for Val he needs his next trophy. Plus vote for Jason he’s unbeatable too, make sure he’s in second. DON’T: Vote for Charity because she’s a Bachelorette and I hate Bachelorettes.

[@missA1981]

Val is amazing, but I feel like he is always given the “best celebrities who is either young and more flexible/adaptable to dance or celebrities who already has a dance background”. I would love to see him be partnered with someone like Alyson Hannigan with no dance background at all or someone like Melora Hardin who is older… That would really put him to the test.

As a dancer, this girl totally has dance experience. She grew up in musical theatre. I don’t find it fair that she is in the competition as she naturally has an advantage over all the other non-dancers that did not recently grow up in theatre. Anyone else?

Totally agree. She has an unfair advantage, and really should not be here
