'Dancing With the Stars' finalists talk about season 31 l GMA

[@bebesomething]

Shangela and Gleb were legendary! Nobody will forget that freestyle! I died!!!

[@allison3852]

Gleb second time in the final four That I know! He was in it with Lauren Alaina I don't remember what place he got with Sasha from pretty little lairs

[@kimmychan1967]

I live!!! 🎉 🙌🏼

[@nk-ti2hw]

​@@allison3852 they eliminated very soon

[@e313speaknow]

the final four was incredible

[@tors14]

One of my favourite final 4’s! I really felt like it could be anyone’s game at some points.

[@Kcasper1]

I kept thinking, are they really not gonna acknowledge the fact that Witney was pregnant the entire season and still completely killed it!? She deserves more credit than was given

[@JBloggerGirl]

amen!

[@allusernamesweretaken]

bruh I DIDNT know this

[@Kcasper1]

@@allusernamesweretaken She found out she was pregnant on the premiere day and announced it officially in the semi-finals

[@paintedwolf44]

Wow

[@lunamiddleton2662]

Yeah I mean from what my family friends said, having a baby in general is hard but dancing, especially like that and having a baby is harder. Whitney killed it

[@LVCKY8]

SHANGELA HAS THE BEST ENERGY EVER! SO POSITIVE AND CONTAGIOUS HAHA

[@allusernamesweretaken]

imagine shangelas reaction if she won

[@angelenewisk1366]

Happy birthday Shangie, love you. Congrats Charlie and Mark. All of you finalists were amazing.🎉

Sam Champion, was such a gentleman in his performances! He very intentionally framed his female partner so well, and he did it consistently. He really let us in to the frame through which he appreciated his own presence in the ballroom and actuated it with high precision, and honestly, the sensibility felt accurate and authentic enough to my experience I enjoyed his story he asserted in this subtlety 🥰

[@okayimbackwhateverjones]

On another note, Jordin's start... the bar may have been low, but it was just giving in bounty and plenty honies!!!!honestly!!!! It was giving time and place! It was giving WOM-AN 🙌 It was giving razzle, dazzle, sparkle and shine! And there was a modern flare to it And again in PLENTY, and she presented that for weeks to get through the first half. Was REALLY excited for her to deliver a clean elevation just around the time she was eliminated. Maybe the judges saw a trajectory I didn't see, so Okay to that I guess but she was one of my favorites!!!! Come on Gender Roles, I suppose (between Sam Champion and Jordin Sparks)! But also, Shangela... she and her partner really brought the heart out in showing that the old can meet the new all on the same dance floor for a heck of a good time! How about that, HUH!!!! 🥰🥰🥰 And I'm always a sucker for successful wiggetry! 😉💁‍♀️ And then that Trevor Donovan feeling things out and finding his own avenue, was really rivotting- I wanted to see what him locking into pocket, into a nice groove space of his own would look like! Unfortunately, I think the judges may have seen something I didn't see again in the trajectory. But whew baby, talk about abs #CouldveBeenMyKen ☕️👀👈

[@okayimbackwhateverjones]

Oh and that Heidi... her movemnts enabled this wild synestetic experience where from seeing her gesture alone, you could almost feel your own appendages in her partners arms... and there were other times, where just watching how much the camera loved her felt truly to the platform, spectacular! Like, okay there may be performances with more payout in their own lanes of things, but this? This right here is the main attraction- AND SHE'S A MOM AS WELL?! 💘 (((*note, one other performer had a very synesthetic effect, but it was kind of in a negative way and resulted in his performances being my least well rated. Then a few weeks later I found out there was a reason why. 🙃 Whoops, my bad 😬))) Albeit, there was no edging out Selma... from coming from where she shared she was years ago with us, to showing up, AND THEN ACTUALLY BEING A like LITERAL DANCER?!?!???? Whose performances actually had whole ass personality, poise, anticipation and delivery?!? Yeah bb, you can't edge that out. Only drown it out by hitting those staples in American culture as loud as you can, as Jordin did. Ijs

[@robin.jashinsky]

Sam Champion…he seems like a real genuine person. He’s so down to earth and I love how he really respected his fellow competitors. We need more nice people like him in the world right now…they all seem really happy for Charli and Mark and that’s some good sportsmanship.

[@leadwithlove3761]

Bravo Good Morning America! I love how everyone was included- esp the baby gift to Whitney and to Val's wife Jenna. DTWS babies so sweet! I honestly LOVED watching this season. It was so special! Mark and Charli's dances blew me way week by week. Like Len said there was no words for her perfection. Mark was the perfect partner. His choreography was on point! Val and Gabby's dance to "kissing you" made my tear up.. was so beautiful. Wayne Brady is a damn legend and he fought for every week even w/ knee pain- that is dedication! AND HALLELOOOO Miss Shangela and Gleb's final free style performance desereves ALLLLLL the awards. BEST freestyle ever! I literally rewatched in 10 x today. I can't get enough! Gleb's transformation was incredible! like Cariann said Shangela has made such an impact on so many generations. Dance is a language of its own and it's the most beautiful one. So many beautiful stories this season. It was unforgettable!

[@aprilrae6551]

I think Wayne and Whitney prom night, It Takes Two was the best performance for season 31. Charli and Gabby were good. But Wayne had the breakout performance this season.

[@DallasHopely]

Do yall realize charile is like 18 and you are grown up people bullying her because she has dance history but was stated she took a break yes she had an advantage but, wasn't trained in what she did. So, I get why yall are frustrated but, it's over let it be she is soo young. And she has anxiety and these rude comments are not helping

I'm pretty sure the judges would have gotten her to win, with the way they kept heaping praise on her dancing skills.

[@allusernamesweretaken]

@@vegskater1741 she had previous connection with Derek and Mark.. anyone can do anything to make a person win with all that money.. just sayin

[@destyneefloyd6804]

im sorry but she didn't deserve to winn if anything wayne or shangela should have won the judges showed favoritism to charlie since day one she always got the perfect songs that actually went with the dance style even carrie ann said the jive wasn't her best dance yet she still got 9s and 10s Shangela and wayne were robbed of the mirror ball

[@larahedge8960]

I think Shangela was the rightful winner since she had not previous dance training, compared to the other three. But I guess Charlie was the best one. I wish DWTS would stop casting super trained dancers and not trained dancers on the same season, it's not even fair

[@richcampbell6808]

@@larahedge8960 All the gymnasts on previous shows had dance experience there were many dancers there was a professional dancer last year Jojo so you doesn't butt hurt a black person didn't win the show. Charli danced circle around the dude in drag. He's lucky he got 4th. White wins again 🏆

But Shangela still calling it a "death drop" when it originated in the Ballroom scene and is called a "DIP"....💅

[@jonny_mazerati9410]

She called it a dip I the first good morning America interview and said the kids now call it a death drop so she knows what’s she’s talking about 💅

[@lisacox306]

She's said she's aware its a dip. Sometime when she's explaining it to someone whose not a Drag Race fan she'll say "It's a Death Drop or a Dip" but Death Drop has become such a term for it in regards to her and to Drag Race, she just goes along with it I think but she definitely knows the history of it all.

[@ccvanilla2853]

No she did not deserve to win. Wayne bust his as so did gabby and shangela

[@LovesDavidCassidy]

I agree she didn't deserve to win, she was a suck up & the judge's favorite sense day 1 and she kept getting perfect scores & meanwhile the others was getting 8's & 9's and sometimes 10's & little miss perfect charli kept getting all 10's I don't think that is right or fair to the others! & Wayne did work his butt off & shangela & gabby did too! & those stupid judges should'n't played favorites!

[@jennifervaleris6637]

I mean the show is supposed to award the best dancer, not who works the hardest. Wayne was my favorite but Charlie did deserve to win. She was the best, rarely made a mistake and literally looked like a pro out there
