Zendaya and Val Chmerkovskiy "Dancing With The Stars" Viennese Waltz (Video)

Hollywood, California - Sixteen year old Zendaya and her partner Val Chmerkovskiy performed a
wonderful Viennese Waltz during April 1st, 2013 live performances show of "Dancing With The Stars" with the theme of "Prom Night". Zendaya’s never been to the prom before. But her grandmother has, and since she was recently diagnosed with breast cancer, Zendaya and her pro partner, Valentin Chmerkovskiy, decided to hearken back to 1957 and re-create moments from her grandmother’s prom in 1957, dancing to “Que Sera, Sera,” staying positive and in the moment and decide that whatever will be, will be. “I just want to make her proud,” the Disney Channel star said. And I think she did that, with a sweeping Viennese waltz that started on a gondola and was filled with swoops and twirls. “That was as enchanting and charming as Venice in the moonlight,” Bruno praised. “A couple of stumbles, but overall, beautiful.” Carrie Ann highlighted the “incredible lyrical quality” to Zendaya’s movement. “The emotional connection to every single move is beyond your years.” Len liked how the “Shake It Up” star moves effortlessly, but thought there was too many over-the-head arm sweeps, and “I’d like to see a little bit more in the hold.

“I’m just glad that she’s here.” Zendaya says after giving her grandmother a hug in the audience.

Zendaya and Val got a total of 24 points for their dance.

Tune in tonight to the result show tonight to see who goes home, who is crowned prom king and queen starting at 9pm on ABC.
