What Happened in the Previous Episode of ‘Dancing With the Stars’?
Oscar night was glamorous. Celebrities like Chandler Kinney and Joey Graziadei danced with their partners to honor popular Hollywood films. The premiere did not eliminate anyone, but Week 2 had a tough double elimination.
The two contestants who left were Tori Spelling, known from Beverly Hills 90210, and Anna Delvey, who was a con artist and is now a fashionista. She was in the spotlight when it was announced that she would join the show this season.
She faced a lot of criticism online for her behavior on the show. Although she mentioned that the negative feedback was hard to handle, she left by saying she learned “nothing” during her short time on DWTS.
Despite the eliminations, all the competitors showed improvement in Season 33. Reginald VelJohnson and Eric Roberts had the lowest scores for the second week in a row. The Oscar-themed night allowed them to reflect on their careers and made the audience emotional.
VelJohnson dedicated his paso doble to his former co-star Bruce Willis, who he acted with in Die Hard, the movie that inspired his dance.
As in the premiere, the judges noticed that Kinney and Dwight Howard stood out in Week 2. Joey Graziadei and Stephen Nedoroscik, an Olympic medalist, tied for third place again.
