Eliminated DWTS Pro Seeks TikTok Fame for Tattoo Reveal

In a recent episode of the Joe Vulpis podcast, Brandon Armstrong, a pro dancer who was eliminated from Dancing With the Stars season 34 last month, revealed his plans to boost his TikTok following. Armstrong, 31, said that while he was "pissed" in the heat of the moment after his elimination, he's since gained some valuable "views" from the experience.

Now, Armstrong is setting his sights on reaching 1 million TikTok followers. If he achieves this goal, he's promised to go live and get a tattoo with his fans. Currently, he has around 300,000 followers on the platform. Armstrong has already discussed his tattoo plans with his wife, Brylee, and remains in good spirits about his early DWTS exit, saying "that's the way the cookie crumbles."

Despite no longer competing, eliminated pros like Armstrong are kept busy with various production duties. He notes that in the week of his elimination, he had a packed schedule, with 5 consecutive 10-hour days of rehearsals and filming. Armstrong also helps choreograph "bumper" routines and assists the remaining celebrity dancers.

As the competition continues, 8 celebrities, including Jordan Chiles, Alix Earle, and Robert Irwin, remain in the running. They will tackle solo routines and group dances on Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Night this Tuesday, November 4.
