Pamy I imagine a lot of people thought she did a good job - but as for her dance - not enough "steps" She's been critizied for that before... so for the first time ever - I threw her some votes!!!

Karina Smirnoff of Dancing with the Stars had plastic surgery on her twice-broken nose, her rep confirms to PEOPLE.

The 29-year-old dancing pro who partnered with boxer Floyd Mayweather this season had the procedure done Nov. 2 for medical as well as aesthetic reasons.

A doctor performed the routine procedure to repair the nasal passageway and reshape Smirnoff's nose, which she's broken twice in accidents in the past six years.

Smirnoff is expected to make a swift recovery in time to appear on the November 27 DWTS finale when all of the season five couples will reunite on the ballroom floor.

"She can breathe easier," the surgeon, Dr. Nicholas Nicolov, told Extra. "She may find being a little less tired, a little less winded."

I hope that Karina's surgery makes her more comfortable in her breathing and has the added benefit of improving her outlook. To me, she always came across as negative and whiny.

I imagine they must have some painful accidents in these dance rehearsals.

This is the second week Marie and Jonathan have been told there's not enough content in their dances. This might be the week she goes. I think this is the first week that I didn't feel inclined to vote for her. I know they had little time to practice, but this isn't the first time their routines have been simpler than everyone else's.

I thought Edyta and Cameron were just beautiful in their first dance, and should've received at least one 10. That's the most material I've ever seen Edyta wear. Poor thing never gets to talk, though. In their second dance Cameron looked like he was wearing the same costume he wore for their samba a few weeks ago. No hip action at all.

Jennie wasn't as good tonight as she has been in the past. She does have posture issues in the latin dances. I prefer her in the smooth dances, and I really liked her foxtrot tonight. I was also impressed with Richard Simmons' words of wisdom.

Not to be a whiner, but it seemed a tad unfair that only Helio got to have 3 seasoned pros coaching him in addition to his regular partner. I wonder if the other teams bring in extra help when the cameras aren't on.

I'm guessing it will be Helio and Mel in the final 2.

I know that Helio and Mel were the best but my votes went to the other three. How much sense does that make? None, I know. I enjoy Marie and Jenny so much and Cameron works so hard and has improved so much. I also like that even though he is hot, hot , hot, he is such a likeable, humble , down to earth sort of guy. I love this whole group so much this year that it is hard to see anyone go. Maks is so hot but is so arrogant, it's kinda a turn off. He and Mel were so good tonight though. I loved Helio's last dance too. Tomorrow is going to be a rough night.

Curylq said: "In their second dance Cameron looked like he was wearing the same costume he wore for their samba a few weeks ago." I was thinking the same thing; didn't like his costume at all for the dance. I wonder if there was a wardrobe mishap and he had to substitute something in at the last moment. It's amazing how much costume does matter. Last week, Mel's performance was significantly enhanced by her costume. This week, Cameron's totally distracted me. It seemed to disconnect him from his partner--why wasn't there any blue in Cameron's outfit? I am afraid I spent much more time puzzling about Cameron's outfit (which I didn't like for this dance) than enjoying the dance!

Cameron may be a good dancer, but he is just out right getting on my nerves!!! I think he has become cocky in more ways than one.

I agree, Texannie. Time for him to go. I hope. I hope. I hope. Then the remaining four all deserve a mirrorball. Helio and Mel probably are the better dancers, but I like Marie and Jennie a lot too.

for me its like Helio and Mel are "too perfect" and now that I read they are getting more professional lessons - maybe that's why - so my votes arent for them...

and that's probably just wrong... maybe I'm voting for the underdogs!!

I 100% disagree that Marie or Jennie deserve a mirror ball. I was watching Marie's dance, having missed the announcer, and had no idea that was supposed to be a jive. I even said it out loud, all alone... "THAT was a jive?"

I'm also totally over Marie mouthing off back at the judges. She's the only one. OK, so it was cute the first time. But does she have to respond to every comment from the judges? No one else really does.

And Jennie doesn't have style or grace. Along with her posture, her legs are horrible and her feet placement is off.

Helio did a phenomenal job. And Mel did a great job, too. If their partners are bringing in other professional dancers to help, well, don't the others have that choice also? It's right up there with making an appearance at Disneyland, so you can get thousands of people to vote for you because they "met" you.

Marie and Jennie need to go. Yeah, they have improved but if this is a DANCE competition, they can't dance.

They are not actually getting professional lessons. Often the pro will take the star somewhere or bring in someone to help motivate them. Several weeks ago, one of the pros brought in his mother who is a famous professional dancer. Don't remember who the star was. Think it was either Jennie or Jane.

It is not something the show provides, it is something the partner provides. Any of them could do the same thing.

I agree that Marie and Jennie are at the point where they are the least talented left. After them Cameron should go. I love Marie, but I would be very unhappy if she lasts longer than Mel and Helio. They are the best two left.

I was very impressed with Helio this week. He has improved so much, and he just seems to soak up the instruction. Have you ever seen him critized twice for the same mistake? I think only his posture.

Did any of you notice how Edyta was frowning right at the end of the show when they were all milling around. She looked angry.

Not sure if she really was, but I would think that would be a time when they should be all smiles and trying to impress the audience at home, not looking sour and unhappy.

It was Sabrina's partner's, Mark Ballas, mother.

I said Helio and Mel are (yes, more than probably) the better dancers, but I enjoy watching them all at this point (minus Cameron).

Allie, I notice Edyta's sour face all the time. She really doesn't take criticism well (and criticizing her partner is the same as criticizing her). It's one reason why I've never liked Edyta or Karina... I think they think it's all about them, and it's really about their partners learning from them. It's obvious some of the pros are better teachers, provided they've got some raw material to work with (Cheryl didn't this season).

I don't enjoy watching Marie or Jennie. I do enjoy watching Helio and Mel B. I think the two of them are really having fun, and soaking up every teensy tidbit their pros are giving them. But they look like they are having fun. Really having fun!

Marie is still my fav and I truly believe she will come in 3rd place. I also think Cameron is leaving tonight, and Jennie next week.

I would like to see Helio stay. I wouldn't mind seeing Cameron go at this point. I would like to see Marie and Jennie at least one more week, and still not sure how I feel about Mel, although liking her better.

Helio's second dance was great and I'm happy with the judges'score.

If Marie doesn't leave tonight, then the elimination system is not working or it will seem odd that the fans keep a couple at the expense of another better couple.

This is because I feel Jennie and Cameron are still better than Marie.... oh well...

You Texas gals (Texannie and Texasdeb) sure do have sharp eyes! Now I'm wishing I hadn't already erased my DVR of Cameron.

Also, I could be wrong, but I think Edyta's sour looks last night could've been that she was a little teed off that whenever she tries to get a word in, Samantha cuts her off. I think she resents being treated as a 2nd class person, not the "Star." JMHO
