If you thought Gilles Marini and Cheryl Burke were amazing on Monday's Dancing With the Stars (they scored two perfect 30s for their two dances in the semifinal round), wait until next week.

"Oh, we have something big planned!" Burke told Usmagazine.com after Monday's show. "The freestyle is where it'll all happen. We have the most amazing song ever. It's going to be big -- something memorable people can relate to. From the first second of the song, people are going to know exactly what it's all about."

Added Marini, "One of the most amazing songs of all time! I hope it works out and America gives us the chance! I can't wait!"

As for their success this season, Marini credited Burke.

"I would have never gotten such good scores with any other dancer," he told Us. "You don't understand the work she put in. If it wasn't for Cheryl, I would have three 3s today. I am not a dancer."

"There's another week to get through," he added, "and we're just going to give it our all. If America gives me the chance, we are going to do it."

The champ will be crowned May 19.

    Me, myself think that Ty needs to go! Lil' Kim should have been one of the top 4! As for Gilles and Shawn, I am so happy that they got to be in there. I love those 2 couples. They are the best!

    I hope Marissa and Tony or Cheryl and Gilles win!!! They are the best dancers, I think. Ty really should be sent home...I think he is the worst dancer but I think he is a cool guy....he just needs to never dance!!! Shawn and Mark are really good, too. That was wrong for Lil' Kim to go home, but may the best dancer(s) win!!! :p

    I really hope for no shockers tonight. Ty's a nice guy, but it's time for him to go. In my opinion he should have gone last week instead of Lil' Kim. I would love to see Gille's freestyle, he's such a class act and a wonderful dancer!! Gilles and Shawn really impressed me last night.

    Send Ty home. He's ugly and not very rhythmic.

    Ty is so adorable--he cannot shimmy or swing his hips at all & yet he does his best w/ what he has. he & chelsie are a perfect pair.i got teary-eyed after the judges critiqued their 2nd dance because i knew then that he's done.he doesn't have the skills & training of a model-actor, gymnast or cheerleader/ballet dancer,yet he charmed us w/ his efforts.

    I hope Ty stays, hes what the show is ABOUT. Lets see where cockyness gets these two (Cheryl & Giles). DWTS is about taking stars out of their element and since Giles is an actor, and has dance background that is the ONLY reason he has done good. And plus Bruno and Carrie Ann have a huge crush on him. He just has to stand there for 10's.

    I'm so sick of all the reality shows and I don't even watch them.

    Ty is a good guy --but his dancing is ok-- but not good or even close to still be in the running. He need to go! NOW! This show is about dancing not just about being a good guy.
