Lady Gaga has officially shown her support for a contestant on Season 34 of Dancing with the Stars, and the moment is generating a lot of excitement among fans. The pop superstar reached out to social media personality Alix Earle, who dressed as her for Halloween. Earle shared a TikTok video where she lip-synced and danced to Gaga’s hit “Paparazzi” while showcasing her impressive moves, which quickly amassed over 1.1 million likes.
In a heartwarming gesture, Lady Gaga commented on Earle’s post, saying, “Girl, I love you. And I’m rooting for you on DWTS! Thank you for this, it’s so sweet.” The supportive message has sent both ladies’ fans into a frenzy, as Earle has openly expressed her admiration for the iconic singer.
Earle and her dance partner, Val Chmerkovskiy, are currently performing well on DWTS. On Halloween Night, the duo impressed the judges with a stunning tango, earning a remarkable score of 39 out of 40. Their total points soared even higher during the themed ‘Dance-Monster-Thon’ segment, further solidifying their position in the competition.
However, the season has not been without its controversies. Following their successful performance, some fans criticized judge Cheryl Burke for giving Earle a score of 9 instead of a perfect 10. This sparked backlash, including a controversial comment from Earle’s stepmother, Ashley Dupré, who scandalously suggested that Burke should “go take more Ozempic.” In response to the ensuing criticism, Burke clarified her stance on constructive feedback versus body shaming in an Instagram video. Subsequently, Dupré issued an apology for her remarks.
Lady Gaga has a history with DWTS, having performed on the show in the past, and her songs frequently feature in various dance routines throughout the seasons. With her support, Alix Earle could have a bright path ahead on Dancing with the Stars, showcasing not only her talent but also the positivity that comes with encouragement from one of music’s biggest icons.
