"Cody:" "Sometimes, I think when I'm performing that I'm that type of person who is a seasoned dancer." "I think putting us together made sense." "It's gonna be a good show." "Cee Lo:" "I paired Cody and Domo because it's a battle between a singer that can dance and a dancer that can sing." "The challenge is if either one of them will step up to the plate and be the total package."
