‘We’re the shocker’: Jenna and Val break silence over unexpected DWTS elimination

Jenna and Val were unexpectedly eliminated from DWTS during the most recent episode, and both of them have addressed the shocking result. 

 Speaking with Good Morning America, Jenn shared she’s “proud” of how much was thrown at them alongside the way “we showed up as a human and as a person through the process is what I’m proud of.” The two of them admitted that they both “felt sad” and ultimately just wanted to “dance more.”

Jenna continued: “Definitely not the way we wanted it to go, obviously. I was looking forward to dancing more and getting to create more pieces together, and it it’s sad. We’re sad about it. I’m I’m definitely bummed out, like I wish we could keep dancing. But there are a lot of positives to all this.

“I got to dance with my bucket list partner over here, and like I got to learn a whole new style of dance, and I got to bring my family here every week, and they they got to see me dance live. I mean, there’s a lot of great things. I haven’t danced in a long time, and it was nice to be back in that energy together, and I had a lot of joy. And so I’m going to choose to look at the positives here and focus on that throughout this whole process.”

In another interview with Extra TV, Jenna claimed that her and Val’s DWTS elimination was the “shocker” for this season. Val added: “Every week uh every week’s a shocker so you know it’s very competitive, a lot of great couples out there wishing everybody the best, going to be rooting from home.”

Jenna shared that whilst the result is “definitely sad” that she has “no regrets” and feels like the two of them had a “great season.” 

The interviewer asked Jenna why she thinks they got eliminated despite her having almost 10 million Instagtam followers. She responded: “You know, I don’t honestly know the answer to that, um I know it’s hard to know how this all plays into it. I know this was a particularly tough week for a lot of you know the online noise and all the stuff that comes with the show and I don’t know. I’ll never know how or if any of that plays into this, but I know that we went out there and had the best time of our life.”

She also has a message for Janet, sharing: ” She’s ready for lunch, she’s ready for girls’ night. Janet, now I’m really ready for a hang. We’re gonna come, Val’s coming too though, that’s the thing. We may not dance here again, but we will dance with you, Janet. We’ll come have a good time.”
