Stepmom Blasts 'DWTS' Judge's Scoring of Influencer Alix Earle

In the latest episode of 'Dancing with the Stars' on October 28th, 2025, influencer Alix Earle and her pro partner Val Chmerkovskiy delivered an impressive tango performance that earned them a score of 39/40. However, one of the judges, former 'DWTS' pro Cheryl Burke, awarded Earle a 9/10, leaving her just one point shy of a perfect score.

Earle's stepmom, Ashley Dupré, who was watching the show from home, was not pleased with Burke's scoring. Dupré took to TikTok to share her reaction, criticizing Burke's appearance and suggesting that the judge has used the weight loss medication Ozempic.

In the video, Dupré can be heard saying, "Oh, go take more Ozempic!" when Burke held up her 9 paddle. Dupré doubled down on her comments, saying, "What? She looks weird. Doesn't even look like her."
