Pro Dancer Slams 'DWTS' Elimination: 'So Pissed'

Professional dancer Ezra Sosa has publicly expressed his strong disapproval of the recent elimination of Taylor Hanson and his partner Britt Stewart from "Dancing With the Stars." The decision, which occurred during the show's "Yacht Rock Night" episode, has drawn significant backlash from fans on social media.

Sosa shared his frustration in a comment on a TikTok video capturing the elimination moment, stating, "I’m so pissed." His reaction mirrors the sentiments of many viewers who felt the duo's departure was unwarranted.

The video also highlighted Stewart's visible reaction to the announcement, noting that she appeared to be restraining her true feelings. Upon hearing their names called, Stewart initially exclaimed, "Oh my God," before placing her hand over her heart. She was overheard repeatedly apologizing to Hanson, and in a heartfelt embrace, whispered words into his ear.

Hanson, reflecting on his time on the show, expressed deep gratitude for Stewart's guidance. "She’s shown me things I didn’t think were possible and I’m so grateful for this time. Amazing," he said in his final interview. Stewart reciprocated the sentiment, telling Hanson, "I am so grateful that I have you in my life. Thank you so much for everything. Thank you."

Sosa was among the first of their fellow contestants to offer comfort to the eliminated pair.

Social media platforms were flooded with comments from disappointed fans. One user on X wrote, "Oh Ezra is PISSED. Poor Britt, she deserves better." Another fan commented, "Britt always gets robbed!" A third viewer expressed their dismay, stating, "This should have been her season. He did so much better than a few of the guys. Idk how he was sent home."

Hanson, 43, and Stewart, 36, performed a foxtrot to "What a Fool Believes" during "Yacht Rock Night," receiving a score of 18 out of 30 from the judges. They found themselves in the bottom three alongside Guillermo Rodriguez and Witney Carson, and Jackson Olson and Emma Slater.
