Marilu Henner and Derek Hough
These two are one of the couples to watch, especially since half of the duo is fan-favorite Derek Hough. When the couple didn't earn immunity last week during the competition, there was speculation that Hough was not pleased with his partner. In a blog with TV Guide, Hough cleared things up by explaining: I know Marilu said in the clip on the results show that she thought I was upset with her, but I wasn't. I wasn't upset with her or about the scores. "Upset" is the wrong word. I was just bummed out because I just knew she could perform it better. Our dress rehearsal was better. I'm with her when she does it fantastically. I just want everyone to see that. I'm not disappointed in her. I'm not upset with her. I'm proud of her. I just want people to see how great she is. She loves the show so much and I want her to look her absolute best. Marilu is on the brink of breaking through. (ABC/DWTS)
