 Kathleen's Critiques
TEAM ANA COLLINS
Considering your records in this competition so far I was not at all surprised at how much I enjoyed this - an inspired choice and a brilliant song that really stood out this week. This worked very, very well and you can be proud of yourselves! | TEAM ANDRÉLLE VON KOCK
Undeniably an ANTHEM, and a dance classic but not a hugely obvious one which I liked. A very solid choice - from one of you, expected, and from the other, it's nice to see some of the potential I've seen in you come to life.
| TEAM COAL MORRIS
I appreciate what you tried to do here: find something that hasn't received a lot of exposure that still fits the theme. One of the most original choices this week easily, but unfortunately the song fell flat for me. It's... danceable, but forgettable | TEAM ROBYN WILLIAMS
Considering how painfully obvious this is I really wanted to hate it more but how can I? One of the most iconic dance songs of all time, and while that maybe holds it back from being an excellent entry, it's still a good effort.
| TEAM SHEMALENA ROSÉ
This would've been better among different competition, but with two other huge dance hits this felt a bit unremarkable. This is perhaps less known but I think in this case it's for a reason as for me it didn't work quite as well as others.
| OVERALL
Probably the weakest week so far entry wise, although understandable given the theme and how many different ways it can be interpreted. I think the competition at this point is very close - with all of you showing great potential, it's a shame that not all of you will get to show what you can really do. |

Valérie's critiques
Hi sisters, it was a week full of bops right ?
I must say that this was probably the hardest week to criticise for me,
as I appreciated all the entries sent, but it was hard and I had to make my votes.
So excuse me because I feel like I've repeated myself on all the critiques of today.
Before starting, I may inform that I will just inform that when I talk of originality, I meant how known your song was...
since on such a week, it wouldn't be a surprise that y'all would have sent some known pieces.
Team Andrélle Von Kock
Let's start with this team, and undeniabely, you have sent a bop that wants me to twerk all night long...
but seeing me twerking ain't as majestic as me dancing to On The Floor. However I would have definitely
preffered if you went with something less known, but you both managed to make this a good week,
especially for your Scarlett, which badly started this season in my opinion.
Team Anna Collins
Something that I appreciated with your entry this week is trom where it came from, deciding to sent a song from
 Poland, which is one of the countries I expected to not make such bops, It's definitely a good week for you two.
Team Robyn Williams
Macarena is indeniabely a perfect song for this week, however, I may regret the fact that you didn't tried
to get something more unknown and something that didn't finished 1st on a lot of charts across the world.
Team Coal Morris
Ok so it's here that me and the other juries members disagrees, in my opinion, your plan to send something unknown
was a great idea, also an entry from Japan, which is another country that I didn't expected to release such songs.
But yeah, I kind of agree with the judges for what they say with your entry.
Team Shemalena Rosé
Like with the team that sent Macarena, I would have definitely appreciated a song that didn't charted across Europe,
but your entry, like all the others, definitely fit on this week.

Keep up the good songs, girls! |

Team Coal Morris
Your song made us move... but in all the wrong directions.
I'm sorry my dears, but you are both up for elimination.
Team Andrélle von Kock, you are safe. |
