Kellie Pickler Blows 'DWTS' Judges Away: Does The Former 'American Idol' Contestant Have The Moves To Win? [VIDEO]

Kellie Pickler's second "Dancing With The Stars" ("DWTS") performance wowed the judges Monday night on ABC's dancing competition.

Kellie Pickler, who previously placed sixth on the singing competition "American Idol" showed the "DWTS" judges that this time, she's in it to win it.

"I'll be your Tinkerbelle, and you can be my Peter Pan," Pickler's partner Derek Hough said during rehearsals, according to Wet Paint.

And now the duo does appear poised to soar to great heights on "DWTS."

"That was frigging amazing," raved "DWTS" judge Carrie Ann Inaba. "I'm blown away. I can't wait for next week."

"DWTS" Judge Len Goodman, who called last weeks Kellie Pickler and Derek Hough performance on the show "fun," lavished even more praise on the pair.

"For week two, last week was a spark. This is a fire. Well done," Goodman said.

Judge Bruno Tonioli was equally blown away.

"Technically superb," Tonioli said. "A great achievement on week two."

The judges gave Pickler and Hough 26 points, a tie with front-runner Zendaya Coleman for the highest points awarded in the night, according to the Huffington Post.

It was a jazz routine that earned Kellie Pickler, who went on to musical success in Nashville following her "American Idol" loss, so much praise on "DWTS."

Zendaya Coleman, a former Disney star and his partner Val Chmerkovskiy tied Pickler and Hough for first with a 1920s routine, not too divorced stylistically from Kellie and Derek's.

You kill-kill-killed that number," gushed Inaba about Coleman and Chmerkovskiy's performance. "You were great last week, but I did not expect that. That was fantastic!"
