As the judges give their glowing reviews of Joanne and Nathan’s dance number, Nathan wipes tears from his eyes on several occasions.
“We do get good dancers who are very boring on this show,” Simon Cowell said. “But both of you have got such amazing personality. Even before you started, I think every single person in this theater was going, ‘Just be brilliant.’ And you were brilliant.”
But the judges weren’t done yet.
