LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'Dancing With The Stars' Season 33 stars Stephen Nedoroscik and Rylee Arnold's Halloween night's scores have landed them in a bottom spot which could lead to their elimination. Stephen masterfully weaves his gymnastics prowess into every dance, and his latest Contemporary performance was no exception, showcasing a series of breathtaking elements.

Despite their undeniable talent, both he and Rylee were shockingly shortchanged on the scorecards, leaving fans bewildered. Only Carrie Ann Inaba saw the brilliance of their routine, awarding them the perfect score they so richly deserved.

Unfortunately, Derek Hough and Bruno Tonioli seemed more inclined to reserve their accolades for well-known celebrities, overlooking the incredible artistry that Stephen brought to the stage. This unjust scoring could have serious implications for Stephen and Rylee’s future performances, putting them at risk of elimination and dampening their momentum in the competition.
