Who Went Home on Dancing with the Stars? Season 35 Eliminations So Far

Quick answer: Three couples are out of Dancing with the Stars season 35 after two weeks: Conner Leavitt and Adele Zaikman (Sept. 15), Sarah Jane Nader and Hailey Bills (Sept. 16) and Giada De Laurentiis and Alan Bersten (Sept. 22). Thirteen couples are left. The next elimination comes on Yacht Rock Night, Tuesday, Sept. 29, at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and Disney+.

Who has been eliminated from DWTS season 35?

Look at the last column. In the two premiere nights, the couple with the lowest judges' total stayed and someone higher up the board left. Only on Viral Hits Night did the elimination land on a bottom score, and even then it was a tie on 12. The judges' cards are combined with viewer votes cast during the live show, so a low number is survivable when an audience turns up for you.

Who has been in the bottom?

ABC does not name a bottom group every week, so this table only lists couples the show itself put at risk on air.

Tyler Cameron is the surprise name here. His 16 on Viral Hits Night was mid-table, and his premiere 17 was the third-best among the men. More on his season is in our Tyler Cameron update.

What are the cumulative scores after Week 2?

ABC scores each night on its own, so no one publishes a running total. This is our own sum of the judges' scores from both weeks for the 13 couples still dancing, out of a possible 60.

The biggest climb belongs to Tatyana Ali, from 12 to 18 with a foxtrot to "What Was I Made For?" Amber Glenn and Jenna Dewan also gained, which is how three women ended up tied for first on Viral Hits Night. Dewan's background is covered in our Jenna Dewan update.

How did each couple go home?

Conner Leavitt, from The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, went first after a salsa to "Whoomp! (There It Is)." The men's premiere used No. 1 hits from each celebrity's birth year. Our night one results have every routine.

Sarah Jane Nader left after a jive that scored 14, two points above Tatyana Ali's jive the same night. Maura Higgins topped the women with a 21 foxtrot. Details are in the night two results.

Giada De Laurentiis, the chef and Food Network host, went out on a salsa to Becky G's "Bella Ciao." It was the first night the men and women danced together, and host Alfonso Ribeiro said it drew more votes than the season 34 finale.

When is the next elimination?

Every Tuesday runs 8 to 10 p.m. ET on ABC, live on Disney+ and on Hulu the next day. Time zones, streaming and the rest of the theme calendar sit on our DWTS how-to-watch page. Who is paired with whom is in the season 35 cast reveal, and the opening routines are in premiere night one.

We keep the same kind of running table for other elimination shows: The Traitors: New Blood on Thursdays, Survivor 51 on Wednesdays and The Voice season 30 on Mondays. The full autumn lineup is in our fall reality TV guide.
