    'Dancing with the Stars' Week 3 recap: How UW-Madison 'Bachelorette' Jenn Tran, 'Bachelor' Joey Graziadei and Olympian Ilona Maher did

    By Hannah Kirby, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel,

    Fun fact: "The Bachelorette" Jenn Tran competitively trained as a pianist for 12 years.

    She shared that on Monday's "Soul Train Night" episode of "Dancing with the Stars" before performing a steamy Viennese Waltz to “Fallin’” by Alicia Keys with her pro partner, Sasha Farber.

    "Learning piano was such a big part of my life, so to be able to dance to such a beautiful piece is going to touch a special place in my heart," said Tran, a University of Wisconsin-Madison alum .

    Following the performance, judge Bruno Tonioli called Tran "a vixen," and her Viennese Waltz with Farber, "one of the sexiest" he's ever seen.

    "That was sexy, I mean really," judge Carrie Ann Inaba said. "I bring that up because you guys have some chemistry going on that's really making this dance come to life. You were outstanding."

    Guest judge Rosie Perez, who was a dancer on "Soul Train," loved the performance and described it as hot, fly and "all that."

    Judge Derek Hough lauded Tran for fixing her frame after his previous feedback on it and said it was his favorite part of the dance.

    "Keep doing what you're doing," he said. "Beautiful job."

    Tran and Farber received a score of 31 out of 40, with an eight from Inaba, an eight from Perez, a seven from Derek and an eight from Tonioli.

    Those were Tran's first eights of the season, co-host Julianne Hough noted. And, that score landed the duo in third place on the leaderboard for the night.

    "I'm speechless. Absolutely speechless," Tran said.

    "I have you to thank for it," Tran told her partner.

    Since there was no "DWTS" last week due to the vice presidential debate , there will be a second new episode this week, on Tuesday.

    "Viewer votes from both nights of competition will be combined with the judges’ scores from both nights to determine which couples may be in jeopardy of elimination on Tuesday, Oct. 8," the network said in a news release.
