Welcome back to the ballroom Dancing fans! For the second time ever, you guys voted to swap the nine remaining celebrities with new pro partners in the Dancing with the Stars Switch Up. To make things even more exciting, international pop superstar Jessie J stopped by to perform and join us as a guest judge! As our hosts Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews welcomed us back, the stage was set for an unpredictable night on the dance floor. Which new partnerships would flourish and which would flounder? As always, judges Carrie Ann Inaba, Julianne Hough and Bruno Tonioli were there to offer critiques and their scores. So let's get to them! WEEK 5 SCORES:     Carrie Ann Jessie J Julianne Bruno Total  Antonio & Allison  8  6  7  7  28  Bethany & Mark  8  8  8  8  32  Jonathan & Peta  6  6  6  6  24  Alfonso & Cheryl  8  9  9  8  34  Janel & Artem  8  8  8  9  33  Michael & Witney  5  5  5  5  20  Tommy & Emma  6  6  5  6  23  Sadie & Derek  9  9  9  9  36  Lea & Valentin  9  8  8  9  34   • Leading off the night's competition, Antonio Sabato, Jr. and his new partner Allison Holker performed a Bollywood routine. The audience loved the high-flying finale, but the judges wanted to see some better coordination betweent the new partners. • Pro dancer Mark Ballas surprised his new partner Bethany Mota during rehearsals, and they were hoping to be a surprisingly good combonation with their Hip-Hop performance. There were a couple of messy transitions, but the judges thought the performance overall was "fantastic." • Star Jonathan Bennett had a rough week in Week 4, but he's hoping new partner Peta Murgatroyd can help him recover. There's no doubt that they put everything they had into their Jitterbug, but it was definitely rougher than the judges wanted to see. • Week 4 was great for Alfonso Ribeiro, so would he be able to repeat with new partner Cheryl Burke with a Flamenco? Not quite, but we did get to see a new side of Alfonso in that passionate, latin dance. • Things were about to get steamy in the ballroom as Janel Parrish and her new partner Artem Chigvintsev danced Burlesque. Unfortunately, Carrie Ann and Julianne felt like there wasn't enough Burlesque content in the routine. • Racecar driver Michael Waltrip has been getting some rough scores recently, but his new partner Witney Carson was hoping their Disco could take him to victory lane. Unfortunately he was less of a disco inferno and more of a disco catastrophe. • It was time to Mambo as Tommy Chong and his new partner Emma Slater took to the dance floor. Tommy looked pretty relaxed, but some of the judges thought he looked a little too relaxed. • Young Sadie Robertson was coming off one of her best performances, so she had to be hoping that Derek Hough could match or beat his pal Mark Ballas with their Charleston. Carrie Ann called it "this close to perfection," so it looks like her new partner did pretty well. • Closing out the night, Lea Thompson joined new partner Valentin Chmerkovskiy for a Broadway routine that set out to get Lea to that ever-elusive perfect score. The judges thought it was a lot of fun, but it was another near-miss for Lea.
