BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: 'Dancing With The Stars' Season 32 pair Barry Williams and Peta Murgatroyd recently got voted off during Whitney Houston Night. However, the viewers suggested that Harry Jowsey should have gone home instead of Barry.

Barry and Peta performed the rumba on Houston's song 'Didn’t We Almost Have It All'. After their performance, Derek Hough told Barry that he "captured the hearts of America," and complimented his "figure-eight hips."

Meanwhile, Billy Porter commended Barry's storytelling ability, saying, "You know how to show up and show out." However, Billy felt the routine was "a little bit too easy" for Barry and pushed him to "do more."

Barry scored 32 out of 40. Meanwhile, Harry bagged a total score of 28. The viewers of 'DWTS' accused the show of being 'rigged' as Barry got eliminated and Harry advanced to the next round.

A viewer tweeted, "How in the fucking hell did harry stay but berry didn’t , harry has not improved since week 1 people need to stop voting for him. It is so rigged for him to win, we are literally getting another Bobby Bones season and it am sick of this shit."

Another person declared, "My dudes. It is time for Harry to GO. STOP VOTING FOR HIM. He had a good run, he and Rylee are adorable, but Lele and Barry deserve to be there over him for sure. Nothing against Harry. But he needs to go."



 



 

A third person said, "Okay BARRY WILLIAMS YOU ARE MY IDOL YOU WERE EVERYTHING. you did NOT deserve to go home. harry MUST BE GONE."

The same person further wrote, "I said it before and i’ll say it again: stop voting for him cause he’s hot, he is a bad dancer, he is barely improving, all he does is stand there."

Another critic questioned, "Did y’all’s phones autocorrect barry to harry or something? because there’s literally no other reason why harry should have made it tonight."



 



 

Another social media user added, "Barry WANTED to be there. he loves dancing. harry doesn’t even care and he does not deserve to be there."

A sixth fan of the show penned, "Lele, Brandon, Barry and Peta deserve better. This season is not the dancing with the stars I have known and loved."

Barry Williams receives dance advice from his wife Tina

Barry Williams admitted ahead of his performance that it was "disappointing" to get 7's last week because his scores went down and "at this point in the competition, our scores should be going up."

During the rehearsals, Peta warned Barry that hip movement would be crucial for the routine. This prompted Barry to call on his wife, Tina Mahina, who was a hula dancer.

Over FaceTime, Tina offered some advice about the "lubrication" of his hips. Meanwhile, after his performance, Barry told 'DWTS' host Julianne Hough, "It was great, I wanna dedicate this dance to my wife."

Barry added, "She has been fantastically supportive throughout this contest. She showed up to rehearsal and brought her lifetime experience of dance and I think it helped elevate this dance."
