One of the Dancing With the Stars pros is sharing the advantage that could help two Season 34 stars go far in the competition.
Dancing With the Stars Season 34 is just one month away, and while pros are clamoring for one of the most coveted partnerships, some of the already announced celebrities are potentially poised to have a leg up on their competitors.
The upcoming season of the hit ABC show is set to feature Robert Irwin, Alix Earle, and Secret Lives of Mormon Wives stars Jen Affleck and Whitney Leavitt amongst its celebrities, though it's not yet clear who they are each going to partner up with.
And while fans are also begging the show to shake things up when it comes to the pros, two of the announced stars may have an advantage–regardless of who they team up with.
In a new interview, Rylee Arnold, who joined the show in Season 32, shared that there is something that Mormon Wives Jen and Whitney have as an advantage heading into the competition.
Speaking to US Weekly, she revealed that the pair both have prior dance experience, long believed to be something that helps celebs in the competition.
Talking about the upcoming competition, Arnold talked about the fact that the two reality stars are part of the Momtok group that spurred their hit show–admitting that their experience dancing on the social media platform can serve as a major help when it comes to being on the show.
“Well, for sure TiKTok dancing does help,” she said.
“If you can watch someone do a TikTok dance and they just have simple rhythm, then Dancing with the Stars is probably going to go pretty well for them.”
Being a part of the original MomTok group could give the women a leg up, especially Leavitt, as she was one of the original members.
This wouldn’t be the first time those who have danced on social media or had other experience with dance were cast on the show–and seen as having an “unfair” advantage as a result.
The biggest example was Charli D’Amelio’s appearance on the show in Season 31 of the show.
D’Amelio is well-known for her TiKTok moves, and went on to win the show with her partner, Mark Ballas.
However, some social media personalities have not done as well over the years, including Lele Pons, who was eliminated and came in eighth place on the show’s 32nd season.
