With his mass appeal, the Jersey lad was bound to have a great night at the premiere. After falling to the bottom of the standings, his fans rallied to ensure his survival, even though not all viewers were pleased with the decision.

On the other hand, he could use some help from his sidekick Koko. The pair danced to Bad Bunny's "Tit Me Preguntó." A set that says Jersey Shore Boardwalk lit up the scene in the background. That was a fantastic first dance... for Koko. Vinny, according to Len, lacked club spirit, was rough, and his legs were too flexed. His comments were met with boos from the audience. Derek concurs that there wasn't much rotation or rhythm, and that the timing was off since he jumped ahead of the song. Bruno considered it an accomplishment that he finished the dance despite the timing being askew. Carrie Ann believes he has a presence, but he allows her to do all the work. He received 4s from Carrie Ann, Len, and Bruno, as well as a 5 from Derek, for a total of 17 out of 40. The evening's lowest score Vinny, on the other hand, managed to overstay his welcome with his Grocery Store Joe vibes.

His fans came to his defense, questioning the lowest score: "Okay Vinny wasn’t that bad I don’t think he deserved the lowest scores!! Don’t worry @VINNYGUADAGNINO I was voting for you! #DWTS." Some fans felt the judges were too harsh to Vinny: "I feel like they were a little harsh on Vinny, I thought it was fun #DWTS." Fans who saved Vinny are now hoping that he will turn things around next week: "vinny don’t disappoint next episode bc i used them 10 votes on you honey! i’m rooting for you! #dwts @VINNYGUADAGNINO." Slamming the judges for their decision, another fan tweeted: "AND VINNY IS SAVED !!!!! In your face judges ! @VINNYGUADAGNINO #DWTS."

On the other hand, some viewers didn't seem too happy to see Vinny stay: "Who in the hell voted for Vinny???? I know ya’ll effin lying!! #DWTS." Agreeing one of the judges, a fan tweeted: "Len is kinda right I expected a little more from vinny after watching him at the club every episode of jersey shore since 2009 #dwts #dwts31." Some fans also felt bad for his partner, as they write: "KOKO IWASAKI DESERVES JUSTICE MEN AIN’T SHIT #DancingWiththeStars  #Jordinsparks #DisneyPlusDay  #Disneyworld  #DWTS31." One fan felt Vinny's performance was a 'mess': "lord vinny was a f**king mess #DWTS."
