The competition for the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy narrows dramatically tomorrow night as the six remaining couples enter the semifinals on "Prince Night." Among the hopefuls is Olympic gold medalist Jordan Chiles, who has spent the last few weeks lingering near the bottom of the leaderboard despite strong performances.
Last week, Chiles had a score of 37, then performed with her special guest, Olympic gold medalist speed skater Apolo Ohno, in the relay round. They faced off against Elaine Hendrix and former NFL running back Rashad Jennings, earning two bonus points to advance to the next episode.
Chiles and Sosa, fresh off their deeply felt Viennese Waltz on "Dedication Night"— a tribute to her father, Timothy Chiles — will perform two full routines for the first time this season: a Jive to "Raspberry Beret" and an Argentine Tango to "U Got the Look."
With the finale one week away and elimination looming, Chiles and Sosa must deliver their most flawless night yet to secure their spot among the season's elite.
Follow below for updates on Chiles and each team's performance.

How does Dancing with the Stars scoring work?
Dancing with the Stars employs a 50/50 scoring system, equally weighted between the judges' scores and the audience vote.
The regular judging panel consists of Derek Hough, Carrie Ann Inaba, and Bruno Tonioli, who are joined by a weekly guest judge. Each of the four judges scores every performance on a scale of 1 to 10, meaning a maximum of 40 points is available for each dance. The couple's total judge scores are converted into a percentage based on the cumulative points awarded by all judges throughout the night.
Audience votes received by a couple are converted into a percentage based on the night's total audience vote count (the "Public Vote Percentage"). The Judge's Score Percentage and the Public Vote Percentage are then added together to determine each couple's final ranking for the week.
How to vote for Dancing with the Stars
Fans can cast their votes exclusively during the live broadcast of the show.

Audience members can vote in two ways:
