Hendrix and her professional partner, Alan Bersten, 31, earned their perfect score of the season with a paso doble to Prince’s “When Doves Cry” on Tuesday night.
For next week’s finale, all five remaining couples will perform three dances, one selected by one of the judges, an instant dance and their freestyle routine.
She’ll face off with the remaining celebrities: Olympic gymnast Jordan Chiles, social media influencer Alix Earle, reality TV star Dylan Efron and wildlife conservationist Robert Irwin.

Earlier in the season, Hendrix, who graduated from Northside School of Performing Arts, now known as North Atlanta High School spoke with Channel 2 Action News about making a comeback to dancing after a career-ending injury.
She initially pursued a career in modeling and dancing, but a car accident while she was riding a bicycle forced her to pivot.
“I’m doing it for the fans, and especially women, you know, of a certain age, and young girls who can, like look up and go, ‘Yeah, I can do that,’” Hendrix said.
“Dancing with the Stars” airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. on Channel 2.
