Corey Feldman and Baron Davis were eliminated in the second week of 'Dancing with the Stars' Season 34 after a double elimination round.
In the second week of 'Dancing with the Stars' Season 34, the competition intensified with a double elimination round. Actor Corey Feldman and NBA All-Star Baron Davis were the first contestants to leave the show.
The evening's theme, 'One-Hit Wonder Night,' featured performances set to iconic singles. Feldman and his partner Jenna Johnson performed a cha-cha to 'Baby Got Back,' receiving a score of 15 out of 30. Davis, paired with Britt Stewart, danced a samba to 'Return of the Mack,' earning 18 out of 30. These scores, combined with those from the previous week, placed both couples at the bottom of the leaderboard.
The highest scores of the night were achieved by wildlife conservationist Robert Irwin and social media personality Whitney Leavitt. Irwin, with partner Witney Carson, performed a tango to 'Move Your Feet,' while Leavitt and Mark Ballas danced a cha-cha to 'Play That Funky Music.' Both couples received scores of 22 out of 30, bringing their two-week totals to 37.
Judge Derek Hough praised Irwin's performance, stating, 'Robert, in leading man mold! Powerful. You don't need gimmicks. You're good.' Bruno Tonioli commended Leavitt, saying, 'I'm gonna tell you you are definitely not a one-hit wonder. You are a hit machine. That was a killer cha cha!'
The combined scores from the first two weeks determined the eliminations. Feldman and Davis expressed gratitude for their experiences on the show. Feldman acknowledged his partner's recent success, noting that Johnson had won the Mirror Ball trophy in Season 33.
The remaining contestants continue to vie for the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy, with the next episode set to feature 'TikTok Night.'
