The actress and her pro partner, Pasha Pashkov, performed a heartfelt rumba to “This Is Me” from “The Greatest Showman.”

While their routine earned a respectable 19 out of 30, bringing their two-week total to 36, it wasn’t enough to keep Spelling in the competition. Her elimination sent shockwaves through the audience, leaving fans divided.

On the opposite end of the spectrum, Chandler Kinney and Brandon Armstrong stole the show with their breathtaking rumba to Billie Eilish’s “What Was I Made For.”

Judge Carrie Ann Inaba was moved to tears, gushing, “You created some moments there that, like, I think, touched us all, like when dance can go inside and like, pull all your organs and your heart strings like that, it’s really powerful.”

Inaba continued, praising Kinney’s early mastery of such emotional depth, predicting, “You are so young, and you championing that so early in the season makes me think you might do quite well.”

Meanwhile, Eric Roberts and Britt Stewart struggled with their waltz to “The Godfather” theme, landing at the bottom of the leaderboard with a low score of 15 out of 30. Their combined score for two weeks stood at 30, making them likely contenders for next week’s elimination.

But it was Spelling’s exit that sparked the most buzz. Reactions were swift, with one fan bluntly stating, “I feel bad for Pasha but I’m not shocked Tori went home.” The fan continued by pointing out that many people from Spelling’s generation are familiar with her and have followed her career over the years, but her reputation isn’t exactly favorable.

Others weren’t surprised either, with one commenter noting, “She’s not one of the popular or well-loved 90210 actors.” Another added, “My Gen X mother said something similar about Tori and people not liking her.”

The reactions kept pouring in, with one person remarking, “I’m not surprised Tori just did not have the fan following to back her.” Another chimed in, “I’m not shocked at all she went home.”

However, Spelling’s departure wasn’t met with unanimous approval. One fan voiced their dismay, “She deserved to stay! I’m still in shock!” Another shared the same sentiment, writing, “I can’t believe she was voted out. She deserved a few more weeks.”

Although Tori Spelling’s “Dancing with the Stars” journey has come to an end, the debate over her elimination continues to stir conversation. However, it seems Spelling herself has embraced her departure with a positive outlook.

She shared that she has been a long-time fan of the show, admitting that for years, she wasn’t sure if joining was even a possibility and that the idea initially terrified her. At 51, she confessed that a part of her wondered why she hadn’t joined sooner.

Nevertheless, Spelling emphasized her belief that everything happens for a reason and that her experience unfolded exactly as it was meant to. Despite the brevity of her time on the show, she described the journey as incredible.

Grateful for the opportunity, Spelling revealed how “Dancing with the Stars” transformed her both inside and out, saying it helped her believe more in herself.

Tori Spelling’s exit has certainly left fans divided, but as they say in showbiz, the show must go on! The competition heats up, and with more shocking eliminations on the horizon, this season of “Dancing with the Stars” is shaping up to be one wild ride.
