“Dancing with the Stars” Season 34 is off to a good start, but Week 2 was also frustrating for some fans because there was a double elimination. We had to say goodbye to two couples on Tuesday, September 23. But before we do, let’s take a look back at former NBA star Baron Davis and his professional dancer partner, Britt Stewart’s performance.
Britt Stewart & Baron Davis’ DWTS Season 34 Journey
The couple was one of 14 to perform for the theme One Hit Wonders. Davis and Stewart performed a samba routine to “Return of the Mack” by Mark Morrison, and while they put on a good show, their score was not great. They earned 18/30 by judges Bruno Tonioli, Derek Hough, and Carrie Ann Inaba (who returned to the show after being unwell during the premiere).
Davis and Stewart did not have the lowest scores of the night, though. Comedian Andy Richter and professional partner Emma Slater performed a tango to “It’s Raining Men” by The Weather Girls. They scored 16/30. and Corey Feldman and reigning dancing pro champion Jenna Johnson performed a cha cha to “Baby Got Back” by Sir Mix-A-Lot and scored just 15/30.
Fans React to Baron Davis & Britt Stewart’s Performance
Photos from Davis and Stewart’s performance were shared on the official “Dancing with the Stars” Instagram account on Tuesday, September 23. The couple looked great; however, they were ultimately eliminated, along with Feldman and Johnson. Fans were not happy about the decision, reacting with support for the pair and praising Davis’ performance.
“Justice for Baron and Britt. Britt needs to go far next season,” a comment reads. “BARON WAS ROBBED OMG HE DID SO GOOD!!!” another person shared.
