LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Charity Lawson and Artem Chigvintsev delivered the Argentine Tango to Taylor Swift's song 'Look What You Made Me Do'. After the performance, Charity received a standing ovation from the crowd.

'Dancing With The Stars' Season 32 judge Derek Hough said that Charity's tango was clean, precise, and sensational. Mandy Moore noted, "It ticked all the boxes."

She added that she wanted Charity to work on the "unpredictability of a snake's bite." Bruno Tonioli declared, "You bit me!"

Meanwhile, Carrie Ann Inaba said Charity's lines are the best in the competition. Carrie further noted that Charity needed to work on her facial expressions.

Despite the compliments from the judges, Charity was put in the bottom three. However, the viewers were left furious as Charity had been at the bottom constantly for the last few weeks.

A social media user said, "I'm really offended that they constantly put Charity in the "while not necessarily the bottom 3..." category."

Another person added, "Stop putting charity in bottom 3 every week for suspense, it’s annoying🙄."

Another critic tweeted, "If two of last couples aren’t the lowest scores(only the couple that actually goes home) why is Charity put in that position every week?"

Another viewer wrote, "How could Carrie give Harry an 8 but Charity just one point higher with all her difficulty and her actually dancing💃 and nailing it."

Another X user wrote, "The way they treat charity every week is sooo 😭 ‘are you ready to go home yet’ is wild."

Charity Lawson claims she isn't a 'Swiftie'

'Dancing With The Stars' Season 32 recently celebrated Taylor Swift night. However, ABC show contestant Charity Lawson wasn't a fan of Taylor.

In a recent interview, Charity revealed, "I'm not a personal Swiftie but I do love her music. I think next week is going to be a very magical night."

She added, "She’s obviously doing her Eras Tour, but it’s going to be very interesting to see how we can recreate that here in this space with the different styles of dances that we’re all going to be doing."
