‘Dancing With the Stars’ Season 33, Week 3 Double Elimination

‘Dancing With the Stars’ is back on track.

After a week-long break and back-to-back performances at “Soul Train Night” on October 7 and “Hair Metal Night” on October 8, two more couples left the competition in a double elimination.

During elimination night, the 11 remaining couples danced to classic rock songs alongside guest judge and rock ‘n’ roll superstar Gene Simmons of KISS.

Heading into the night, Chandler Kinney and Brandon Armstrong were at the top of the leaderboard, while Reginald VelJohnson and Emma Slater were at the bottom. After the judges and viewers vote, one more couple moves closer to the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy.

While the stars were deep in the competition, co-host Julianne Hough joked about another “nothing” moment with Anna Delvey, which made headlines with Eric Roberts. After being eliminated, the convicted con artist was asked what she would take away from her “DWTS” experience, to which she replied, “Nothing.”

Roberts, who was unimpressed with his performance, had few words for Hough when asked how he felt before his scores. “Is this another ‘nothing’ moment,” Hough said, as Roberts looked surprised and said, “No, no!”

Olympian Ilona Maher also had an emotional moment as she received her feedback from the judges. Tearfully, the athlete was hard on herself, telling Hough prior to her scores, “This was a really hard dance for me… you do so well in rehearsal and then you screw it up.”

In an exciting twist, former Bachelorette Joey Graziadei and partner Jenna Johnson finished the night at the top of the leaderboard with a total of 70 out of 80 points.
