Why it matters
Reality television competitions remain a significant driver of pop culture engagement and celebrity media cycles.
Another celebrity contestant was sent packing this week on “Dancing With the Stars.”
Singer Taylor Hanson and his pro partner, Britt Stewart, were eliminated at the end of Tuesday night’s episode, themed “Yacht Rock Night,” after their Foxtrot to “What a Fool Believes” earned them an 18/30.
This week saw the remaining Season 35 contestants bust a move to “smooth grooves, soft-rock classics and iconic hits that defined the yacht rock era,” per an ABC press release.
Ahead of the elimination, co-hosts Julianne Hough and Alfonso Ribeiro revealed that “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” star Guillermo Rodriguez (with partner Witney Carson ) and Savannah Bananas star Jackson Olson (with partner Emma Slater) were also in danger of going home.
The music of Daryl Hall & John Oates — commonly known as Hall & Oates — provided the inspiration behind three of this week’s performances.
