Ahead of the double elimination that took place on Tuesday, four couples tied for the high score during the second episode of \u201cDancing with the Stars\u201d Season 34.<\/p>\n

Each of these four top-scoring couples included a Utahn,<\/a> whether that be the pro dancer or the celebrity contestant. The theme for Tuesday\u2019s episode was One-Hit Wonders Night, featuring songs such as \u201cIt\u2019s Raining Men\u201d and \u201cHey Mickey.\u201d<\/p>\n

The four couples who tied for the top score were: Robert Irwin and Witney Carson; Whitney Leavitt and Mark Ballas; Jen Affleck and Jan Ravnik; and Jordan Chiles and Ezra Sosa.<\/p>\n

All four of these pairs received two 7s and an 8 from the judges, earning a total score of 22\/30.<\/p>\n

A look at the top-scoring dances on \u2018Dancing with the Stars\u2019<\/h3>\n

After blowing away fans and judges last week,<\/a> Australian wildlife conservationist Irwin continued to follow in his sister\u2019s footsteps by topping the leader board once again.<\/p>\n

Irwin and his Utah partner, Carson, danced a tango to \u201cMove Your Feet\u201d by Junior Senior.<\/p>\n

The judges complimented the dance for being powerful and clean, and judge Carrie Ann Inaba told Irwin that his charisma is off the charts.<\/p>\n

Leavitt, one of two \u201cSecret Lives of Mormon Wives\u201d stars competing on the show this season, and her partner Ballas also tied with Irwin and Carson for the top score last week.<\/p>\n

This week, the pair performed a cha-cha to \u201cPlay That Funky Music\u201d by Wild Cherry.<\/p>\n

Judge Bruno Tonioli complimented the dance for being filled with content and told Leavitt to keep going the way she\u2019s going.<\/p>\n

Affleck, the other \u201cSecret Lives of Mormon Wives\u201d star performing this season, and her partner Ravnik were another pair to tie for the top spot on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Affleck and Ravnik performed a quickstep to \u201cTake On Me\u201d by A-ha. The judges told Affleck that this dance was better than last week and Inaba shared that she enjoyed the routine.<\/p>\n

The fourth pair to tie for the top score were Olympic gymnast Chiles and her pro partner from Utah, Sosa.<\/p>\n

They performed a jive to \u201cManiac\u201d by Michael Sembello. Tonioli enthusiastically told Chiles she was \u201cgoing for gold\u201d and praised her focus and determination. Inaba also compared Chiles to Tina Turner.<\/p>\n

Who was eliminated on \u2018Dancing with the Stars\u2019?<\/h3>\n

Because no one was sent home during last week\u2019s season premiere, this week, two couples were eliminated from the competition.<\/p>\n

The two couples who were eliminated were former NBA player Baron Davis and his partner Britt Stewart, as well as actor Corey Feldman and his partner Jenna Johnson.<\/p>\n

Davis and Stewart performed a samba to \u201cReturn of the Mack\u201d by Mark Morrison. The dance earned them a score of 6 from each of the judges, adding up to a total score of 18\/30.<\/p>\n

Feldman and Johnson danced a cha-cha to \u201cBaby Got Back\u201d by Sir Mix-A-Lot, which earned them straight 5s. They had a total score of 15\/30.<\/p>\n

How did the rest of the \u2018DWTS\u2019 contestants do?<\/h3>\n
