The winners of Season 29’s Dancing with the Stars has been announced…and the mirrorball is handed to Kaitlyn Bristowe!
While Bachelorette fans are happy with the news, many DWTS fans are NOT! They are saying he has been robbed. This is why:
1. Nev has been more consistent. Throughout the 10 weeks, Nev has been getting great scores one week after the other, averaging higher than any other contestant. Meanwhile, Kaitlyn had a great start but her dances began to stale after week 3 when her routines were pretty much the same. The judges had to call her out for her lack of “attack” up until week 9.
2. The winner was picked based votes. This is no secret given Kaitlyn is tied with Nev’s and Justina’s scores in the finale. When half of the dancers’ fate is based on scores, and half on the audiences’ votes, the votes are what makes it or breaks it in this case. Given DWTS is on ABC, the same network as The Bachelorette, Kaitlyn is guaranteed to have a leg up in the race.
3. People were voting for Artem. Loyal DWTS viewers sometimes love the pros more than the stars, so although you’re suppose to be voting for the celebrities to win, having a mirrorball trophy would be a career defining moment. Since Artem has not won a mirrorball trophy yet and Jenna does, many fans were voting on Kaitlyn on behalf of her pro which is slightly unfair.
Perhaps Nev should come back next season for a potential “all-stars” season…read it about it here:
