Polizzi and professional partner Sasha Farber had just received 27 points for their samba.  

Actors Corbin Bleu and Amber Riley are on top of the leader board with 29 points.  Riley was able to dance with professional partner Derek Hough, whose back injury threatened to keep him sidelined.

All eight celebrities danced twice, splitting up in two groups.
