Ballymahon’s Maura is now in the semi-final of Dancing With The Stars US.
As Ballymahon’s Maura was announced safe from elimination, the camera caught the look of joy and relief on the judges’ faces.
Over the past number of weeks, Maura has become a firm favourite among judges and viewers, wowing all repeatedly with her flawlessly-executed dance routines, vivacious personality and her famous Longford accent.
During the latest episode, which as a Grammy Night Special and involved the couples perform to the biggest hots , Maura and dance partner Mark Ballas performed the Argentine Tango to Sisquo’s hit Thong Song, earning them an incredible 27 points out of 30.
Even more impressive is the fact that Maura completed the routine despite battling a painful rib injury.
