Bonner Bolton Will Spice Up Your Life With Energetic Charleston on ‘DWTS’

YouTube/Dancing With The Stars

This cowboy went back in time!

Professional bull rider Bonner Bolton traveled back to the 1920s on Monday night’s (April 3) episode of Dancing With The Stars. He and his partner, Sharna, danced the Charleston and turned the temperature up in the ballroom!

Clad in 1920s fashion, Bolton and Burgess danced to Fergie’s “A Little Party Never Killed Nobody” for the show’s Vegas Night theme. This wasn’t their best dance so far, but given Bolton’s physical limitations due to his paralyzing bull riding accident just over a year ago, he was moving and jumping around pretty well! 

Although they scored a 24 out of 40 and barely escaped elimination, next week’s dance will likely be their most moving one yet. The next show’s theme is Most Memorable Year, which is usually when the celebrities choose a year that truly defined who they are.

Burgess will be able to tell Bolton’s story of recovering from being paralyzed from the neck down and we cannot wait. 

Watch their Charleston below. What scores would you give them? Let us know in the comments!
