The ballroom was shocked. While Lauren and Brandon tied comedian <span>Andy Richter<\/span> and <span>Emma Slater<\/span> at the bottom of the leaderboard, Lauren had <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/2025\/10\/01\/dancing-with-the-stars-dwts-season-34-episode-3-recap\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:plenty of potential;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">plenty of potential<\/a>. She can dance, but just had a rough time with her first Latin routine. Lauren deserved a higher score.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Danielle Fishel wasn\u2019t throwing shade at Whitney Leavitt on Dancing with the Stars<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As the contestants and DWTS pros comforted Brandon and Lauren, it seemed that Whitney didn\u2019t get the memo. In the final moments of the show, ABC cameras caught Whitney smiling and jumping around. While she tried to get Danielle to celebrate with her, the actress did not. <span>The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives<\/span> star\u2019s smile disappeared, and fans thought that Danielle <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/tv\/articles\/danielle-fishel-seemingly-dismisses-whitney-131856453.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:brushed Whitney off;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">brushed Whitney off<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Meanwhile, TMZ caught up with Danielle and asked about the incident. \u201cPeople seem to think that, you know, you put Whitney in her place. Do you think she\u2019s a little tone-deaf with, you know, kind of cheering a little bit?\u201d the reporter asked.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cNo. It\u2019s \u2026 it\u2019s a rollercoaster of emotions. We can be happy for ourselves, and our friends that were safe, and also sad that <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/2025\/10\/01\/lauren-jauregui-robbed-dancing-with-the-stars-dwts-opinion\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:somebody is gone;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">somebody is gone<\/a>,\u201d Danielle explained. \u201cSo, I definitely did not put her in her place, but I just went to go comfort my friend.\u201d It sounds like Danielle might not have appreciated Whitney\u2019s \u2026 enthusiasm.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Still, it looked like an awkward moment. Hopefully, everyone will be chill for the next episode, because it is the most magical night in the ballroom.
