Julia Stiles eliminated from Disney-themed Dancing with the Stars episode
Actress Julia Stiles and partner Ezra Sosa were the latest couple to leave the competition during the Disney-themed episode of Dancing with the Stars.
Julia Stiles, known for "Save the Last Dance" and "10 Things I Hate About You," and her professional partner Ezra Sosa were eliminated in the Disney-themed episode of Dancing with the Stars on Monday night. The episode featured performances inspired by Disney Broadway productions, with guest judge Cynthia Erivo evaluating the routines.
Stiles said after her exit, "It's been an incredible experience. I pulled things out of myself that I didn't realize were there," and praised Sosa as "an amazing person." Sosa responded, "Just to see your growth in and outside the ballroom has been an absolute honour. I'm so lucky that I got to share this experience with you. I love you so much."
The night also saw a tie for the highest score, with Jenna Dewan and Val Chmerkovskiy and Harry Shum Jr. and Jenna Johnson both receiving perfect scores for their dances. Immunity for the following week was awarded to Shum Jr. and Johnson based on their cumulative season scores.
The episode included two team dances set to songs from "High School Musical" and "Zootopia 2," and the final rankings were calculated from team scores, partner scores, and audience votes. The show airs on Disney+ on Tuesdays, with this episode aired early to avoid conflict with the U.S. midterm elections.
