DWTS Fans Upset: Guillermo's Score Sparks Outrage

Fans of Dancing With the Stars are expressing strong disagreement with the judges' scoring of contestant Guillermo Rodriguez during the recent Viral Hits Night. Guillermo and his professional partner, Witney Carson, performed a Paso Doble to Rihanna's "Where Have You Been." Despite their efforts, the judging panel—Carrie Ann Inaba, Derek Hough, and Bruno Tonioli—assigned them a score of 12 out of a possible 30. This score led to immediate backlash on social media, with viewers arguing that Rodriguez was "underscored" and had shown considerable improvement. Many fans felt his performance warranted higher marks compared to other celebrities that evening. Despite the controversy surrounding his score, Guillermo and Witney Carson have advanced and are set to compete in the upcoming "Yacht Rock Night" on September 29. Rodriguez appeared on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" following the show, expressing that he "feel[s] great" about his progress, leaving anticipation high for their next dance.
