The fourth episode of Dancing With the Stars season 34 went on with the “Disney Night” theme. The stars had to dance to the tunes inspired by the classic Disney movies and properties.
After the departure of Fifth Harmony singer Lauren Jauregui in the last episode, the competition power was down to eleven. The performances were packed with the music and the characters from Disney animations, live-action films, theme park rides, and even from their recent acquisitions like Star Wars.
On the basis of the combined judges’ scores and viewers’ votes, the decision was made about the celebrities who were at risk and who were eliminated at the end of the show.
Hilaria Baldwin was sent home in this episode, so the competition continues with ten contestants.
