'Dancing With The Stars' Finale: Justina Machado comes fourth, fans rally for recount as Nelly gets more votes
'Dancing With The Stars' came to an end with Artem Chigvintsev and his partner Kaitlyn Bristowe taking home the mirrorball trophy. This was the first time Artem won the competition and fans were happy for him. However, one thing that upset them was seeing Justina Machado getting placed fourth while Nelly was placed third.
Ever since the show started, fans were in love with Justina as she brought energy and grace to the dance floor. Fans loved her performances while many rooted for her to take home the mirrorball trophy. With every episode, her scores increased, and fans were convinced she was in it to win it.
Meanwhile, Nelly's performance had its ups and downs. The rapper made sure he put his best foot forward in every performance. However, it did not manage to win the hearts of many. Fans were quick to comment on how he should be the one to leave. They also questioned the judges when he got a higher score than some of their favorite contestants.
Some of them were left angry when Skai Jackson and Johnny Weir had to leave the show while Nelly made it to the finale. This made them wonder if the show was rigged. The topic came back for discussion as people found out that Nelly came in third while Justina was placed fourth this season.
