Simone Biles Scored A Perfect DWTS Score To Demi Lovato’s ‘Skyscraper’ But Was Still Voted Off
She absolutely nailed her dance.
On a recent episode of “Dancing With The Stars,” Simone Biles gave Demi Lovato’s “Skyscraper” the rumba treatment and nailed it. Her dance, with partner Sasha Farber, was flawless. The judges gave the couple a perfect score (their second of the night) but it was up to the audience to vote on who got to stay and who went home. After the votes were tallied and everything was said and done, Biles, along with her perfect scores, were sent packing, to the judges astonishment. The performance was beautiful and Biles proved that she was the competitor to beat as she and Farber slayed the dance floor.
Demi Lovato was hyping Biles’ performance on Twitter before the show.
Simone you are amazing. Good luck tonight! Can't wait to watch your performance on #DWTS. @Simone_Biles

And Biles responded like all the other fangirls that want to be in Lovato’s personal Twitter Rolodex.

Such promise just hours before the show.
The couple showed off several impressive dips.
That is three moving dips back to back. Don’t try it at home.
And they even performed a masterful twirl.
Beautiful.
But when the votes were tallied, this was how the judges reacted:
AMERICAN RIGHT NOW! WTF?? #dwts @Simone_Biles @DancingABC #RIGGED pic.twitter.com/W1QaC6mMHN

There has been some speculation from fans that Biles was voted off in reaction to the previous episode, when asked why she wasn’t smiling. Biles told the judges, “smiling doesn’t win gold medals.” It’s now a T-shirt, fyi.
Fans are shook (and pissed) that America let Biles down.
OMG NOOOOOOOOOO!!! @SashaFarber @Simone_Biles you guys were EVERYTHING & deserved to be in the finals! ? #dwts pic.twitter.com/lRNKlDlLiq
