Though herDWTSexperience came to an end sooner than she’d hoped, Spears told hostAlfonso Ribeirothe best part of the show was “meeting everybody and doing something I never thought I’d do in my entire life.”
After earning a 15/30 for their tango last week, Spears said during the episode that she was keen to improve. “I don’t like average,” she said. “I want to do better.”
She and Bersten danced a Cha Cha on Tuesday, which tasked the actress with being sexy, which she said was out of her comfort zone as she’s just a “softball mom.”
Of their performance, the judges awarded the duo a 16/30 and applauded Spears’ major improvement from her first performance.
“You came out of your shell… you entertained and connected,” judge Bruno Tonioli said. “You are a performer and you can do it!”
