Nastia Liukin, Derek Hough earn perfect score on ‘Dancing’

LOS ANGELES, May 12 (UPI) — Nastia Liukin earned two perfect scores on Monday’s episode of Dancing with the Stars.

The 25-year-old retired gymnast performed a waltz to Leela James song “Fall for You” with Derek Hough and a quickstep to Christina Grimmie single “Feelin’ Good” with Sasha Farber. Hough is Liukin’s assigned partner, but still recovering from an injured foot and ankle.

Riker Lynch and Allison Holker also earned perfect scores with their contemporary routine to Hozier song “Work Song” and tango to Ludwig van Beethoven composition “Für Elise.” Lynch and Holker and Liukin and Hough are the highest overall-scoring couples this season.

Noah Galloway and Sharna Burgess and Rumer Willis and Val Chmerkovskiy are the two other pairs who remain in competition. One of the four couples will be eliminated Tuesday before the rest compete in the finals next Monday.

Dancing with the Stars season 20 airs Mondays and Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
