This week the producers of the popular dance show nixed the elimination round but switched things up quite a bit by changing up the dance partners of their celebrity dancers.

For one week only it was ‘switch-up night’ for the celebs who were paired with new partners based on viewers votes and tweets.

Again… there was no elimination this week! But Nene was paired with Derek Hough instead of her regular partner Tony Dovolani and the two danced an African-tribal themed routine that judges called her ‘best dance’ yet.

Check out Nene & Derek’s dance below…



This week Nene wasn’t the best dancer to perform but she certainly wasn’t the worst!
