Salsa Edition: THE GOOD, THE BAD, and THE INCREDIBLY HOT!
The salsa has only been around since season 7 so there’s slim pickings for this edition but still enough to educate on what a salsa should in tale or not in tale for that matter!
THE GOOD
Season 8: Gilles Marini
How can you not love watching Gilles shake it! Latin dances are all about the hip movements and shoulder shakes! I think Gilles nailed both of those aspects while being an incredible frame for Cheryl!
THE BAD
Season 7: Cody Linley
Okay, this is a TERRIBLE salsa but you can clearly see that Cody has no hip action go on and no shoulder shakes that are exceptional! He had great enthusiasm but not enough technique.
THE INCREDIBLY HOT
Season 7: Yesenia Adame & Paul Barris
This is exactly what a salsa should look like! Now I know celebs will hardly ever look like this but this is HOT!
UG, I like Yesenia and Paul but that’s not what Salsa looks like. That’s a show dance. Show Salsa is HUGELY different than what most salsa is. Take a look at this video:

That’s what salsa is suppose to look like… *head shake* DWTS needs to stop adding Social dances.
Gilles dance was great ,he really can shake but that was not a salsa at all.
I thought Cody did a good job. I don’t know about technically but it was fun! And the lift at the end was so cool!
