Tyra: 👹somebody is getting eliminated👹 Derek: YoU kNoW tHaT mEmE

[@rebeccaj3856]

I feel like the couples that’s going to finals is Nev & Jenna Kaitlyn & Artem Justina & Sacha Skai & Alan

[@softxrod881]

Replace Justina and put Skai

[@allisonthecat]

I’m pissed AJ and Johnny where in the bottom two. It’s time for Nelly to go home he sucks compared to the others. I wanted to see AJ’s freestyle I know it would have been dope. I’m sure Johnny will be in the finals along with Nev.

[@jovana3905]

i'm sorry but nelly & skai should've gone home weeks ago.. aj had such great potential to go to the finals:(

[@Shaggygoingscoob]

Exactly

Before people complain about Nelly not going home , his fan base is strong . It’s not all about the judges scores your score counts too so if you want your favorite to stay so bad VOTE ❤️! It’s not his fault he’s safe , people vote for him and even tho he’s not good like the others he is honestly doing very good and growing I’m proud.

[@nynyslay2071]

@Ashton A right but 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️

[@tameracampbell681]

But the judges overscore Nelly and he does the bare minimum. It’s not about improvement but dancing and technique. When combining the voting with the score it’s unfair.

Gosh I hope this was Halloween. Derek using eyeliner, really?

[@noibat7034]

I think he’s dressed as David Bowie

[@annescarlett5463]

That’s good. Hard to tell from the U.K. Only manage to get snippets on KZbin as it’s no longer shown here. Big mistake I think. Thanks

[@lindymoyo9118]

I love seeing Nelly every week but he should've gone home. Both couples in the bottom two deserved better.

[@zolwik1397]

I think it is all about audience not really ready for someone like Johnny who is gender bender. He is trailbrazer and he is showing something different with Britt than the rest of the couples there. Plus his dancing skills are so amazing. I’m so happy he is still in the game! Would love to see him in the final

[@jenniferjara749]

Freaking Unbelievable!! Nelly just walks around the stage, Danielle does everything and on top of that he almost made her fall at the beginning of their choreography in the turn. This show should be “who’s the most popular star”🤬

[@reignmarieodaniel]

Aj and Cheryl are the winners in my world! 😊💜

[@justinkelly4835]

Nelly was saved because of the fans not the judges votes. If it was because of the judges... Nell would’ve went home a while ago. Johnny isn’t as popular as someone like Skai Jackson. So he’s automatically not gonna make it. I’m going for Johnny and Britt. But if people don’t vote... Johnny is gonna go home next. 🤷🏽‍♂️ DWTS isn’t about Dancing anymore. It’s mostly about popularity. If it was about dance. It would be Johnny in the finals no doubt.

[@Aurorabinder]

Just a question since i haven’t always watched the show- was it ever solely about dance? Or has popularity amongst fans always been a big factor? 🙏🏻✨

[@justinkelly4835]

@@AurorabinderI’m sure it was in the earlier seasons. But I can tell you now... Skai Jackson and Nelly. They are not going to win the show. It’s very RARE that the most popular person wins. And also it’s RARE that the best dancer wins. Dancing With The Stars is mostly about who has improved from Week 1. So people who have a chance are... Nev, Justina, Kaitlyn. Johnny can win but he has a horrible fan base because people don’t vote for him. Strictly because the people don’t know him.

[@itsvictoriaytfrazier1906]

The only reason why I'm watching dancing with the stars is because of Skai Jackson. I watched her when I was young. Btw im still. Only in 7th grade lol. Can anybody relate.

[@imbored8647]

Noooo two of my faves I can’t pick 😭😭😭

So sad for Johnny 😔

I AM SO EXCITED FOR BEXT WEEK SINCE ITS THE SEMI FINALS I HOPE SKAI WINS!!!

Poor Skai. Her partner is too fast and shes always trying to keep up.. God bless her soul., Shes a trooper..

First year I vote out of 11 that I’ve been watching and only for AJ. This is bizarre and it truly broke my heart 💔😭

[@jemyahrichardson4313]

As much as I love Nelly, he should have been eliminated this week, A.J did so well this season, so sad to see him go :(

[@Bcdf-ei9el]

I don't understand how Derek chose to not save Johnny:( What was his logic?

[@blaqkhavok35]

This was hard to watch , these 2 were my fave couples 😥😥😥
