The duo skated to The Weeknd's Earned It - Fifty Shades Of Grey soundtrack. They wowed on the ice, performing lifts, throws and other moves.

They included a bit of sultry spice to their style instead of sticking with the old tricks and moves.

They also added in a touch of love and attraction in addition to the tricky skating moves. A perfect way to get the viewers' attention and the judges' admiration.
