In a tribute to Hispanic culture, Olivia and Jade as characters from the movie, 'Coco', did the Jazz. Judge Len commented it was such a joyous performance and gave her a score of 9. Judge Derek complimented her saying she was a natural dancer even if she didn't have any prior experience and also gave her a high score of 9. Judge Bruno excitedly repeated that he just loved it, and also scored her a 9. Only Judge Carrie Ann scored her an 8 saying she was a beat ahead but encouraged her growth. This brought her total to a 35 out of 40 for a grand total of 70 out of 80. Now while she scored handsomely, fans were left in confusion as her performance which was supposed to be villainous was more cutesy than anything else. It left fans baffled as to why she was scored so highly. They expressed their anger over the issue as they felt other contestants who did much better than her deserved higher scores. Here's how fans reacted.
A fan commented, "Careful, judges, Olivia’s mother went to prison for inflating her performance! #DWTS". Another viewer said, "Len undermarking Mel and Gleb but yet always overscoring Olivia and Val? Doesn’t make any sense #DWTS". Another user said, "#DWTS is rigged so Olivia Jade wins"
A viewer commented, "Olivia really got 3 nine’s for that lack lustered performance smdh #dwts #DancingWiththeStars". A fan also said, "Now I see how Olivia is like her mom, she's trying to bribe the judges. #DWTS". Another viewer said, "Maybe my dislike for Olivia is clouding my judgement but that dance did not deserve a 9. #DWTS".
