Season 34 of DWTS previously featured contestants Corey Feldman, Jen Affleck, Lauren Jauregui, Baron Davis, Hilaria Baldwin, Scott Hoying, Danielle Fishel, Andy Richter and Whitney Leavitt—who was eliminated on the semifinals one week before the finale.
Andy, who was voted off one week before the Secret Lives of Mormons cast member, shared his thoughts on the season’s voting trends while defending the reality star’s honor following what he called her “insane” exit.
“There’s a whole soap opera going on adjacent to this show online,” the 59-year-old told Entertainment Weekly in an interview posted on Nov. 19. “It’s a good way to sort of take the temperature of what the audience is feeling in terms of voting. I’ve seen forever, there’s like people just like, ‘Whitney’s gotta go,’ and I’m just like, ‘What? Why?'”
While many fans agreed Whitney had it coming, one week prior to her departure, she stunned viewers when she channeled Roxie Hart in her and Mark’s Argentine Tango performance of “Cell Block Tango” from Chicago.
Other dance highlights this season included Elaine and Alan incorporating the Parent Trap handshake into their Cha-cha-cha on the premiere and Dylan and Daniella’s air walk move spurring many—including the dance pro’s husband Pasha Pashkov—to reenact it on social media.
