Jessica Dazzles in Episode 3 of Dancing with the Stars

30-Apr-2012

Following some stinging criticism from the judges last week, Jessica has been dubbed the comeback kid, after her magical performance on Episode 3 of Dancing With The Stars.  

After scoring only 8 out of 30 last week, she impressed the judges with a version of the rumba to Wonderwall by Oasis. It earned her a respectable score of 21 last night, including eights from two of the judges. 

"We put in the hard yards this week and it paid off. I gave it my all," said Jessica, battling the effects of a flu virus.

Judge Helen Richey described Jessica's performance last night as one of the most incredible things she has witnessed.

“I’ve seen a lot of incredible things in my career, but never have I seen such a transformation llke that. You have gone from a duckling to a swan, it was beautiful,” said Richey. 

Judge Joshua Horner described Jessica as ‘mesmerising’.

“You have something about you Jessica that is special and I am glad we saw that tonight – you were just mesmerising,” Horner said. 

Ironman Caine Eckstein was the second star eliminated from the reality dancing competition. There are now nine contestants remaining.
