On Sunday, Univision premiered the fourth season of the hit show "Mira Quien Baila" at 8 p.m. EST.
The show got started with a musical number featuring Ninel Conde and the third season's winner Henry Santos. Conde will be featured as one of the judges on the show this season alongside Bianca Marroquin and Horacio Villalobos.
The show then introduced the first two dancers of the night: Graciela Beltran and El Daza. Both are known for performing Mexican regional songs; Beltran is also famous for her rivalry with the late Jenni Rivera. Beltran was applauded by Marroquin, but was told to watch the movement of her hips and shoulders. Conde noted that Beltran was nervous and also criticized her arm movements. Villalobos thought Beltran needed to loosen up.
Marroquin loved El Daza and told him that he was dynamic and charismatic; Conde was equally in love with his performance. Villalobos was not as convinced and said that El Daza almost dropped his partner at the end.
Mane de la Parra and Yolandita Monge followed on the dance floor. De la Parra got good marks from Marroquin and Conde; Conde remarked on his sensuality in his tango performance. Villalobos told him that he needed to fix his posture but was ultimately satisfied.
Marroquin marveled at Monge's performance, though she did note that some loosening up was necessary. Conde noted that Monge was elegant on the floor while Villalobos congratulated her on an excellent performance.
In the following segment, Maria Elisa Camargo and Manny Manuel danced merengue. Camargo was congratulated on her sensuality by Conde and Marroquin, but was criticized by Villalobos for having stiff shoulders.
Manuel got high marks for his charisma from Marroquin, Conde and Villalobos. However, while Villalobos felt that Manuel got off to a good start, he said that he slowly lost his pace as the dance wore on.
Johnny Lozada and Malillany Marin were the next contestants to arrive on the dance floor. Lozada was praised by all three judges; Marin also got high marks from all the judges especially Villalobos who had nothing negative to note.
Pedro Moreno and Marjorie de Sousa followed on the dance floor. Marroquin had a star-struck moment with Moreno, but she was impressed by his work. Conde noted that Moreno had a lot of strength on the dance floor, but stated that he needed to control it better to coordinate with his partner. Villalobos noted that he looked like he was working out in the gym instead of dancing.
De Sousa was criticized by Marroquin for a lack of confidence; Conde noted that the dance did not suit her. Villalobos agreed that the dance was not for her, but congratulated her on the sensuality she portrayed.
The judges then announced the winners of each round. The winner of the battle between El Daza and Beltran was El Daza. The judges then picked De La Parra over Monge and also chose Manny Manuel over Camargo. In the fourth round battle between Marin and Lozada, Lozada emerged as the victor. Moreno completed the male sweep by being picked by the judges over de Sousa.
The five men were forced to dance once more. El Daza was the first contestant to return to the dance floor with a Marc Anthony song and was followed by Manuel with some rock n' roll. De la Parra, Lozada, and Moreno finished up the round. The top two winners of the round were Lozada and El Daza. The viewers were then give the chance to vote on the winner.
