DWTS' Carrie Ann Inaba Reveals How She Really Feels About Sean Spicer Being Safe Another Week

Sean Spicer has had the lowest score on Dancing with the Stars for four weeks in a row and judge Carrie Ann Inaba isn’t happy that he’s still in the competition while other dancers with better scores are being eliminated.

“My reaction to Sean being saved, it’s frustrating,” Carrie told Us Weekly. “There are really great dancers being sent home, but that is part of our show. It’s always been the audience and the judges’ perspective. So I’m not — I can’t be mad at it, but it’s frustrating.”

“We want the people to be involved, and this is the way they are voting,” she continued. “It’s hard because sometimes I hear the feedback from the people. ‘Hey, why aren’t the best dancers staying in?’ Well, that’s up to you guys. I’m doing my job, right? And people need to vote. So, I just hope that those who are frustrated with this happening as well vote as passionately as the people who support Sean.”

She added that she has “nothing against people that are supporting Sean because they’re voting passionately. Kudos to them for bringing it to the table.”

Nikki Bella Calls Out Artem Chigvintsev for Dating Carrie Ann Inaba

Nikki Bella gave a shout-out to her boyfriend Artem Chigvintsev‘s ex Carrie Ann Inaba!

The 35-year-old retired professional wrestler and the 37-year-old Dancing with the Stars pro guest co-hosted ET‘s show on Wednesday (September 25) in Los Angeles.

On DWTS‘ new voting format this season, featuring a judges’ save, Artem said, “When I did Strictly Come Dancing in the U.K. for four years, that’s how they do it. I feel like I’m a little bit biased on this one. Because I love the people to be involved … but I also feel that the judges are the experts, so having that option is good, too. We’ll see how it goes.”

Artem and Nikki met in 2017 when they competed on season 25 of Dancing with the Stars, placing seventh.

“I like it,” Nikki Bella added about the new voting switch-up. “I think we would have lasted longer if we had that option. I think Carrie Ann totally would have saved us. And not because you guys dated… but she really liked my technique!”

“Speaking of hot seat today, what?” Artem laughed as he turned red and covered his face with a paper. “C’mon!”

Artem and Carrie Ann Inaba dated from 2006 to 2009, after meeting on the set of So You Think You Can Dance.

“I feel like I’m better now,” Artem Chigvintsev also shared about not being a part of season 28 of DWTS. “The best way to describe [the feeling] is, having this relationship for 10 years that you’ve completely invested in, and all of a sudden, it’s just like it’s not there anymore. So, it’s tough, but I wish the best of luck to the show. They ask me back, maybe I’ll be back. Who knows!”

She was joined by her co-hosts Sheryl Underwood, Carrie Ann Inaba, Sharon Osbourne, and Eve.

The farewell episode included a special performance from Sara‘s wife Linda Perry and daughter Sawyer.

“I hate doing this,” Sharon said. “Why did you make me do this?”

“Coming every day and seeing Sara… she can read me, I can read her, and if there’s anything on my mind, I tell Sara,” Sharon continued. “And, it’s like now I won’t have Sara here.”

“She’s like a sister that I never had,” Sharon Osbourne added. “I can tell her things and she gives me good advice, and I know if I tell her things, it won’t go anywhere else, and it’s like a sacred thing. … It is like not having your sister with you anymore, and it’s gonna be hard, but she only lives down the road. I will be paying her many visits, and she’s not going out of any of our lives. She’s here. … I know all the times when I’m not here, I’m sure Sara will sit in for me.”

Sara announced she would be leaving the The Talk in April. Find out who is replacing her.
