The Semifinals Shocker: Why Whitney Leavitt's Elimination Caused Uproar
The Semifinals episode, often referred to as "Prince Night," is historically one of the most intense of any DWTS season, and Season 34 was no exception. The night required each of the five remaining couples to perform two separate routines.
Whitney Leavitt and Mark Ballas were in top form, delivering a pair of highly technical and critically praised dances. Their performances included a high-energy Cha-Cha-Cha and an elegant Viennese Waltz.
Near-Perfect Scores and Judges' Praise
The duo’s scoring for the night was exceptional, making their eventual elimination all the more shocking. For their Viennese Waltz, they earned a near-perfect score of 29/30.
Their Cha-Cha-Cha was equally praised by the panel of judges, including Bruno Tonioli and Derek Hough. Judge Derek Hough even called their Cha-Cha "literal perfection," noting that performing a Cha-Cha in the Semifinals was a "really risky" move that paid off. The couple's total score for the night was a formidable 55 out of a possible 60 points, placing them high on the leaderboard.
The Power of the Viewer Vote
Despite their high scores, the combination of the judges' scores and the crucial viewer votes determined the final outcome. In a stunning turn of events, Whitney Leavitt and Mark Ballas found themselves in the bottom two alongside another highly-rated couple. Ultimately, the public vote was not enough to save them, leading to their elimination and a fifth-place finish.
