Top 8 - 07 / 22 / 09

Jeanine paired up with Brandon for a smooth waltz and a pop jazz routine. She also danced a solo in her own style and a group routine. Nigel thought Jeanine was fantastic and did a good job keeping up with her partner.

Jeanine performed a traditional Russian folk dance and a jive with Phillip. She received rave reviews from the judges, and Mary even put her on the Hot Tamale Train.

Top 14 - 07 / 01 / 09

Top 16 - 06 / 24 / 09

Jeanine danced a Broadway routine with her partner, Phillip. Mary said that Jeanine has been stellar this entire competition, and tonight was no different.

Jeanine paired up with Phillip to dance the tango. Mary thought Jeanine was a "hot mama" and that she did a really great job.

Top 20 - 06 / 10 / 09

Jeanine performed a slow hip hop routine with partner Phillip. Although she admitted she's horrible at hip hop, it didn't show. Nigel was so glad that the previously under-the-radar Jeanine was able to make a name for herself with this routine.

Las Vegas - 6 / 04 / 09

Jeanine Mason showed the judges that she has what it takes to make the Top 20. When Jeanine found out that she's on the show, she exclaimed that her mom is going to freak out!
