Justina Machado & Skai Jackson Tie for Top Score on 'DWTS' Season Premiere (Videos)
The season premiere of Dancing With the Stars aired tonight and the top scores of the evening went to One Day at a Time actress Justina Machado and Disney Channel star Skai Jackson!
The two actresses earned scores of 21 out of 30 points for their first dances on Monday (September 14), during the episode taped live in Los Angeles.
Skai and her partner Alan Bersten performed a tango to the song “Super Bass” by Nicki Minaj while Justina and her partner Sasha Farber did a Cha-cha-cha to the tune of “Respect” by Aretha Franklin.
There were 15 performances during the season premiere and everyone will be back next week to perform again. The scores from the two performances will be combined with this week’s audience votes to determine who goes home at the end of next week’s show.
