'DWTS': Sailor Brinkley-Cook Dedicates 'Mamma Mia!' Dance to Mom Christie Brinkley
Christie Brinkley may no longer be competing on Dancing With the Stars, but she's still the queen of the ballroom!
During Monday's Movie Night, Sailor Brinkley-Cook and her pro partner, Valentin Chmerkovskiy, adorably dedicated their performance to the model, who had to forfeit the competition earlier this month due to an injury.
The dancing duo performed an energetic Tango to "Mamma Mia" from Mamma Mia!, slaying their routine and receiving raving reviews from the judges. "I feel like we parallel Meryl Streep and Amanda Seyfried in this movie," Sailor said in a package that aired right before stepping out with Val.
Bruno Tonioli called it "a great, feel-good Tango," while Len Goodman said it was "full of snap, crackle and pop ... a fantastic routine."
#TeamSailaV received a total of 23/30 from the judges.
Prior to their performance, the DWTS Instagram page teased that the two would be doing something special for Christie.
"#TeamSailaV never forgets to include Mamma @christiebrinkley," the post read. "Their #MovieNight performance will be no exception! #DWTS."
