Shawn Johnson goes tribal with her Samba with Derek Hough and Mark Ballas on Monday night’s Dancing With The Stars: All-Stars in Los Angeles.
The 20-year-old athlete and Derek, 27, first took the floor to dance a Viennese Waltz to “Angel” by Sarah McLachlan. They scored a 29.5 out of 30 on that dance.
Next up — the trio round where the duo recruited Mark for the fun samba-like dance.
But even though they wowed the crowd, judge Len Goodman wasn’t really happy with it and gave them a 7!
“It was very self-indulgent. There was very little Samba content. It’s a very critical week,” he told them after the dance. Total score for the samba, 26.

FYI: Derek and Mark are also pictured below doing a bit of holiday shopping with Derek‘s sis Julianne at the Grove over the weekend.

Just call Shawn Johnson the luckiest girl in the world.
The 20-year-old athlete makes her entrance on Dancing With The Stars: All-Stars with Derek Hough and Mark Ballas on Monday night (November 5) in Los Angeles.
While Derek was unable to dance with Shawn, his best friend and her former partner Mark stepped in for their fusion dance of Paso Doble and Tango.
Scoring a 30 out of 30, judge Bruno Tonioli called Shawn, “The Queen of the Night.” And as far as fusions go, “that was flawless.”
Congrats Shawn, Derek and Mark!
