Who Was Eliminated Last Week?
Last week marked Disney Night on Dancing with the Stars, as the show celebrated the 70th anniversary of Disneyland. Notably, Whitney Leavitt and her partner Mark Ballas earned the first 9 of the season for their foxtrot to “The Room Where It Happens” from Hamilton.
Whitney and Mark were at the top of the leaderboard with 25 out of 30. Right behind them, tied with 24 out of 30, were Alix and Val, Elaine and Alan, and Jordan and Ezra. Andy and Emma were once again at the bottom of the leaderboard, with 18 out of 30.
However, Andy and Emma were declared safe at the end of the night. Hilaria Baldwin and Gleb Savchenko ended up being eliminated, despite receiving a score of 23 out of 30 for their quickstep to “Cantina Band” from Star Wars.
Hilaria had received some backlash from fans for her past ballroom dancing experience, which some people thought gave her an unfair advantage in the competition. Who will be eliminated on Dedication Night? We’ll find out when the new episode of Dancing with the Stars airs Tuesday night on ABC and Disney+.
