'Dancing With the Stars' (DWTS) Season 28: Sean Spicer roasted after he blinds fans in neon green shirt for debut performance

'Dancing With the Stars' fans had a field day on Twitter roasting former white house secretary Sean Spicer's outfit.
UPDATED SEP 17, 2019

One of the most controversial participants on this season’s ‘Dancing With the Stars’ Sean Spicer made quite an entrance. Clad in a frilly neon-green shirt, whose sleeves looked like a frilled lizard had us all roaring in laughter. The former White House press secretary's partner Lindsay Arnold too had an interesting outfit, a sheer sequinned leotard with shimmery pineapple pasties near the bust area, and the same neon green frills from Sean’s shirt to cover her behind.

The former white house press secretary's performance to ‘Spice Girl’s’ famous ‘Spice up your life’ number scored pretty low with the judges. In fact, one of the judges said: 'What were you doing there? It's like you were being attacked by a swarm of wasps.” But his outfit scored very high amongst Twitter users, who couldn’t stop roasting Spicer’s funny-looking outfit.

A fan wrote, “Well, if Sean Spicer wants to hide in the bushes, he has the perfect shirt. #DWTS”. Another fan tweeted, “I am going to be haunted by images of Sean Spicer attempting to shimmy in that electro-green ruffle shirt and too-tight poly trousers. #DWTS I’m billing you for my Klonopin.” Several fans are convinced that the costume department was taking revenge from Spicer for all the terrible things he did to the country during his stint at the white house. “Hold up. Did Dancing with the Stars make @seanspicer wear that horrifying outfit purposely as payback for all the terrible things he did during his time at the White House? If so, I approve! #dwts”.

The hosts too commented on Spicer’s outfit by referencing Seinfeld’s iconic puffy shirt.



 

While most fans poked fun at the former press secretary’s outfit, few fans came out in support of him. Most of these supporters appreciated Spicer’s confidence for pulling off the look. A Twitter user wrote, “@seanspicer Way to represent, Sean.  Loved your DWTS debut!  You were rocking the neon and still made it look good!”. Another supporter tweeted, “Great job Sean.  Just putting on that shirt took guts!  Keep having fun!”
