Fans of ‘Dancing With the Stars’ are not holding back after last night’s shocking elimination.
Although Barry Williams and Peta Murgatroyd and Harry Jowsey and Rylee Arnold had the lowest scores of the night, ultimately it was Lele Pons and her partner, Brandon Armstrong, who got eliminated — and fans are furious.
‘DWTS’ Fans Are Not Happy With Recent Elimination
Lele Pons was a front-runner in the competition this year, but it seems that fans’ votes were not enough, as she was eliminated from the show last night. The 27-year-old stated she was “so, so grateful” for the experience, while her partner, Brandon Armstrong, said, “This one burns.”
Fans feel the elimination was unfair as Jowsey has been struggling these past few weeks, especially last night during his jazz routine with Arnold.
“LELE PONS IS SENT HOME!? But F— A– HARRY JOWSEY IS STAYING?! ?? #DancingWiththeStars #DWTS,” one fan wrote on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.

While, one user is blaming teens for Jowsey continuing in the competition when he should have been sent home weeks ago. “Me when I catch every prepubescent preteen voting Harry through this show #dwts,” they wrote on X.

One fan of the show wrote, “America really voted off Lele just so we can see Harry and Rylee do this exact move over and over again? Lmao.”

While one fan thanked Brandon Armstrong for saying what he said following the shocking elimination. “This is the most disturbing thing I’ve ever seen and hats off to Brandon for saying what he said #DWTS,” they wrote.

Others took to the ‘Dancing With the Stars’ Instagram to express their frustrations.
“I’m glad Brandon spoke his mind at the end. It shouldn’t have been Lele,” one user said as another voiced, “Barry should’ve went home instead don’t get me wrong he’s good for his age but compared to Lele she was cheated.”
And another fan commented, “Let’s be honest, should’ve been Harry. He dances sooo bad and is not getting any better. Comes and goes. Barry at least moves those hips, but I do think Peta is not the best partner for him. 0 chemistry.”
