Who Got Eliminated Tonight on Dancing with the Stars?
Let’s rip the Band-Aid right off: the two couples who went home tonight on Dancing with the Stars, Season 34, Week 2, were NBA champ Baron Davis and his pro partner Britt Stewart, plus actor Corey Feldman and Jenna Johnson. Double whammy. While everyone’s feet were flying across the ballroom for “One-Hit Wonders Night,” the night ended with a serious jolt—especially if you had money (or hope) on Baron or Corey sticking around for a few more episodes.
Corey Feldman’s Cha Cha, for example, brought all the energy you’d expect from a Hollywood veteran, but the judges’ paddles weren’t exactly in full swing for him—just a gentle clap, if you will. Baron, meanwhile, looked like someone who could barrel through the competition if given time, but, hey, time’s short on this show. I kind of hoped both would shake loose and find their groove, but it’s the early weeks where surprises always hit hardest.
How Did the Night Unfold?
The “One-Hit Wonders Night” theme was a blast—who doesn’t secretly love jamming out to a forgotten gem? Still, the scores were tough, and with last week’s results factored in, there was even less room for a mediocre cha-cha or a slightly mess-up on the foxtrot. Check out these Week 2 totals, with just a dash of casual commentary:
Four couples tied at the top with 22 out of 30: Robert Irwin & Witney Carson, Jen Affleck & Jan Ravnik, Whitney Leavitt & Mark Ballas, and Jordan Chiles & Ezra Sosa. (If you’re betting, keep an eye on this pack.)
Others not far behind: Alix Earle & Val Chmerkovskiy and Lauren Jauregui & Brandon Armstrong, each with 21.
At the lower end: Scott Hoying & Rylee Arnold at 18, Andy Richter & Emma Slater at 16, and Corey Feldman & Jenna Johnson at just 15 out of 30 this week (which—ouch—sealed their fate).
Dancing with the Stars Tonight Scores
Alright, let’s talk round two — who dazzled, who stumbled, and who became an unexpected (if temporary) ballroom legend. The judges combined tonight’s scores with last week’s, raising the stakes and making that leaderboard feel like a digital roller coaster.
Some couples danced like they had glitter in their veins. Robert Irwin and Witney Carson topped the entire leaderboard with a swaggering 37 points out of 50, right alongside Whitney Leavitt and Mark Ballas. Jen Affleck and Jan Ravnik? Solid contenders at 34. Just for fun, here’s a casually incomplete, non-robotic leaderboard:
| Couple | Total Score (2 Weeks) |
|---|---|
| Robert Irwin & Witney Carson | 37 |
| Whitney Leavitt & Mark Ballas | 37 |
| Hilaria Baldwin & Gleb Savchenko | 35 |
| Lauren Jauregui & Brandon Armstrong | 34 |
| Jen Affleck & Jan Ravnik | 34 |
| Alix Earle & Val Chmerkovskiy | 34 |
| Elaine Hendrix & Alan Bersten | 33 |
| Jordan Chiles & Ezra Sosa | 32 |
| Danielle Fishel & Pasha Pashkov | 31 |
| Dylan Efron & Daniella Karagach | 30 |
| Scott Hoying & Rylee Arnold | 28 |
| Andy Richter & Emma Slater | 25 |

Next Week’s Teaser & A Final Thought
If you love TikTok, you’ll love what’s coming: next week’s episode is themed around viral music and moves, which could mean anything from smooth flash mobs to a group floss that divides the internet. It’s a bit unpredictable—which, honestly, is what makes Dancing with the Stars genuinely fun each season.
Eliminations always sting (especially when you sort of warmed up to the goofy charm of, let’s say, a Corey Feldman), but that’s the dance. It’s sequins, it’s heartbreak, it’s joy. See you next week under the lights—for all the twists, tumbles, and rare tender moments that keep us coming back.
