'Dancing With the Stars' Season 22: Nyle DiMarco Talks 'Adrenaline Rush' Of Blindfolded Dance [VIDEO]
Nyle DiMarco recently discussed how it feels to make the Dancing With the Stars finale and that amazing blindfold dance.
DiMarco is officially a finalist on Dancing With the Stars alongside his partner, Peta Murgatroyd. Only two couples stand in the way of winning the coveted Mirrorball trophy.
DiMarco and Murgatroyd talked with Us Weekly after Monday night's episode making it to the finals.
"I mean, this is like a dream come true. Honestly, from the first day I that met Nyle - it was going to be a challenge - and I didn't know how I was going to approach it," Murgatroyd said. "But we've been concrete every single week and it's become a passion of mine, literally, to challenge him and create amazing dances with someone who can't hear and to make him look like he can."
DiMarco, who is completely deaf, stunned the audience on Monday when he performed part of his individual dance completely blindfolded.
"It was definitely an adrenaline rush," he told Us Weekly. "I can't hear and I can't see so that's just three senses I had left so it was really all about holding onto Peta for dear life! Her movement is telling me what my next move is so I move with her flow."
DiMarco and Murgatroyd earned a perfect score (30 out of 30) for this dance.
So will DiMarco and Murgatroyd go on to win this season of Dancing With the Stars? Odds are in their favor, considering the amount of respect the model has earned since the start of the season. They are competing against Paige VanZant and Mark Ballas and Ginger Zee and Val Chmerkovskiy in next week's grand finale.
The Dancing With the Stars finale airs Monday at 8 p.m. ET/PT and Tuesday at 9 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
