[WARNING: This post contains MAJOR spoilers from\u00a0Dancing With the Stars<\/a>, Season 34, Week 3.]<\/p>\n

Just three weeks into the competition,\u00a0Dancing With the Stars Season 34 has already had a shocking elimination. Lauren Jauregui<\/a> and Brandon Armstrong<\/a> were the couple eliminated during Week 3 of the competition<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Jauregui tied with Andy Richter<\/a> at the bottom of the leaderboard with a score of 18\/30 (they both danced the foxtrot this week). The judges were hard on Jauregui, noting that she needed to add more \u201cpop\u201d and \u201cpower\u201d to her performances. Still, tying with Richter, who has done his best, but struggled with the dances so far, was quite a shock.<\/p>\n

At the end of the day, Jauregui received less viewer votes than the comedian, and she was sent home<\/a>. It came down to her, Richter, and Elaine Hendrix<\/a> as the last three to learn their fate (although Richter and Hendrix were not necessarily in the bottom three, as the results are not called in order).<\/p>\n

When host Julianne Hough<\/a> asked Jauregui how she was feeling afterwards, she had a one-word response: \u201cPissed.\u201d It was extremely candid, and fans praised her for not holding back. \u201cLauren Jauregui could not be more right AND SHE SHOULD SAY THAT<\/p>\n

Someone else said<\/a>, \u201cAnd one thing about Lauren Jauregui is she will tell NO LIES. You could feel how upset she was just watching #DWTS #DWTS34.\u201d Other fans expressed their frustrations at Jauregui being eliminated so early, with many noting that they felt Richter should have been the one to go home instead.<\/p>\n

Andy is STILL IN THE COMPETITION,\u201d someone tweeted<\/a>. \u201cthis is just as rigged as runext idc idc idc wtf was that #dwts.\u201d Another fan wrote<\/a>, \u201cSERIOUSLY I\u2019M DEVASTATED SHE DIDN\u2019T DESERVE THIS THESE PEOPLE DON\u2019T DESERVE YOU LAUREN JAUREGUI #LaurenOnDWTS,\u201d and someone else said, \u201cIm so devastated & so heartbroken that Lauren Jauregui got eliminated!

Despite her blunt and candid reaction to the elimination, Jauregui also made sure to gush over working with Armstrong. Meanwhile, the cameras also cut to Jauregui\u2019s fellow Fifth Harmony members Ally Brooke<\/a>, Normani Kordei, and Dinah Jane in the audience, and their reactions also looked disappointed and frustrated.<\/p>\n
