SPOILER ALERT: This story contains spoilers from the Tuesday, Sept. 30 episode of “Dancing With the Stars.”
Following the first elimination of the season — a double elimination, no less — the “Dancing With the Stars” competition continues to heat up. During this week, the partners danced to songs best known for dominating on TikTok. For the social media mavens on the cast, namely “Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” stars Jen Affleck and Whitney Leavitt and massive social media star Alix Earle, it seemed the perfect theme.
It was also the perfect week for Season 31 winner, social media creator Charli d’Amelio, to come back for a few performances — one with the troupe for a routine to Megan Thee Stallion’s “Savage” and one with her former partner, Mark Ballas, to “Assumptions” by Sam Gellaitry.
After each routine, Lauren Jauregui and Andy Richter were tied at the bottom of the leaderboard, with Whitney Leavitt and Jordan Chiles tied at the top. Despite a low score, it was still a major shock when Lauren — who has a giant fan base — was eliminated. Inside the ballroom was an audible gasp, with everyone looking around at each other, completely shocked and emotional.
When asked how she was feeling, the Fifth Harmony singer responded, “Pissed.” She then turned to partner Brandon Armstrong and added, “I’m so grateful to have had you as a partner.”
