“Dancing with the Stars” Season 34 has been incredible so far, and Week 3 did not disappoint. Many contestants put on a great show, with the top scores on the night going to Jordan Chiles and Ezra Sosa, who scored 24 out of 30, and Whitney Leavitt and Mark Ballas, who also scored 24 out of 30.
Robert Irwin and his professional dance partner Witney Carson performed an unforgettable salsa routine. Irwin’s skills and hotness have blown fans away! But there is something else that fans are loving about his performance.
Robert Irwin Gives a Memorable Salsa Performance
Irwin and Carson landed in the middle of the pack with the judges’ scores on Tuesday, September 30. They received a respectable 22 out of 30, something which fans were furious about. However, if the wildlife conservationist was disappointed, he didn’t show it, and as always, he reacted with grace to the feedback.
He has been loving every minute of his DWTS journey and is incredibly grateful for the continued support of his fans (and he has a lot of them). After the show wrapped, Irwin posted a video on Instagram. “So much FUN to let loose and show a different side in this week’s salsa! Thank you @witneycarson for helping me find my inner ‘cool’ I’m so grateful for another week in this competition – truly having the time of my life,” he wrote in the caption. He also added a clever hashtag, writing, “#TeamIrWINit.”
The clip shows Irwin’s dance routine with Carson, and a fan favorite moment was when he ripped off his shirt. Fans reacted with applause, but it was more than a display of hotness. The moment has also been described as a scene from the iconic romance film, “Dirty Dancing.”
Robert Irwin Channels Patrick Swayze in ‘Dirty Dancing’
“Dirty Dancing” was released in 1987 and starred Jennifer Grey as Frances Houseman and the late Patrick Swayze as Johnny Castle. “Why is this giving me Patrick Swayze vibes? You did amazing Robert!!!” a fan wrote.
“That’s hip move after he took his shirt off reminded me of Patrick swayze in dirty dancing,” another fan shared.
Other reactions include, “No dance has gotten this kind of reaction from me since Tom Holland’s lip sync battle,” “I can’t not love everything about Rob Irwin,” and “WHAT THE HELLY HELL ROBERT… HOW ARE YOU SO GOOD?”
Irwin is leaving his mark on the ABC dance competition, and fans cannot wait to see what he does in Week 4. He is also a top contender to win the show, which would be incredible, as his older sister, Bindi Irwin, won Season 21 alongside professional dance partner Derek Hough.
