SAFE: Cody Rigsby and Cheryl Burke scored 18 out of 30 for their jazz routine to "Gimme More."
Rigsby and Burke performed away from the ballroom floor following their COVID-19 diagnoses.
While judge Bruno Tonioli said he "admired the perseverance and the commitment" the two exhibited by performing despite having COVID-19, it was "very difficult to judge the sync" between the partners.

SAFE: Iman Shumpert and Daniella Karagach scored 19 out of 30 with their tango to "Piece of Me."
Judge Carrie Ann Inaba said it was "impressive" that the 6'5 Shumpert "toned down" his steps to match Karagach.

SAFE: Real-life couple Brian Austin Green and Sharna Burgess also scored 19 out of 30 for their tango to "Till The World Ends."

SAFE: Jimmie Allen scored 20 out of 30 for his salsa to "Outrageous" with partner Emma Slater.
While Inaba and judge Len Goodman said they wanted "stronger hips" and fists from Allen during the routine, Tonioli disagreed with his fellow judges and said the dance was "going brilliantly."

SAFE: Matt James and Lindsay Arnold also scored 20 out of 30 for their tango to "Scream & Shout."
Goodman pointed out that while James had fumbled his footwork early in the routine, the "Bachelor" star still brought plenty of passion to the ballroom.

SAFE: Kenya Moore and Brandon Armstrong's "Womanizer" tango scored 21 out of 30.

SAFE: Suni Lee and Sasha Farber also scored 21 out of 30 with their foxtrot to "I'm A Slave 4 U."
Goodman criticized the "steamy" routine for not quite capturing the romance of a foxtrot, but still congratulated the couple on their performance.

ELIMINATED: Like Moore and Lee, Christine Chiu scored a solid 21 out of 30 for her paso doble with Pasha Pashkov to "Stronger."
Chiu, who was in the bottom two in the second episode, told Insider reporter Esme Mazzeo ahead of Monday's performance that she was drawing strength from Spears, who Chiu described as the "embodiment of confidence."
Even though the judges compliment Chiu and Pashkov for their "clean, crisp" routine that had "plenty of energy," the two still ended up getting eliminated Monday night.

SAFE: Mike "The Miz" Mizanin and Witney Carson scored 22 out of 30 with their salsa to "Oops! ...I Did It Again."
Goodman said Miz's moves on Monday night were "fantastic," especially considering that the professional wrestler does not have a dance background.

SAFE: Melanie C and Gleb also scored a 22 out of 30 with their tango to "Toxic."
The judges complimented the choreography and Mel C's dancing skills, while also adding that the former Spice Girl was rigid in spots.

SAFE: While also dancing the cha cha to "Circus," Amanda Kloots and Alan Bersten scored 24 out of 30.

SAFE: Olivia Jade Giannulli's tango to "Hold It Against Me" with partner Val Chmerkovskiy also earned 24 out of 30.

SAFE: JoJo Siwa and Jenna Johnson also earned top scores on Monday - 24 out of 30 - with their Argentine Tango to "... Baby One More Time."
