The quarter-finals of DWTS got heated as fans are displeased and have started to defend Vinny Guadagnino since his elimination on ’90s night. Although the Jersey Shore star was not performing excellently by being toward the bottom of the leaderboard, he was not in the bottom two, so people were not happy that he got the boot from the stage.
Votes for Vinny Guadagnino on DWTS have not been great, making fans worry about his future in season 31 of the reality competition series. On Reddit, his supporters have taken to how it has been “unfair” that people have urged him to step down due to his lacking performance with dance partner Koko Iwasaki. People recognize he is not the best, but it does not end their support of him due to his time on Jersey Shore and that they “see themselves reflected in him.”

Viewers get a certain number of votes, which closes ten minutes before each two-hour episode concludes. To some people on Reddit, it is not only about voting on someone’s performance. Reality TV is often personality base, and since viewers are not professional judges like seen on the show, their judgment might be swayed in directions from other factors outside of someone’s moves.
DWTS fans of Vinny Guadagnino have taken stances together about the criteria that will send someone to the next round or home. One user, dancerfan59, wrote about how people vote for various reasons, like “personality,” “most improved,” and “best attitude.” User skuuttynose agreed by adding viewers voting don’t have proper education on dancing as they “can’t distinguish a proper New Yorker from a sloppy one.”
In any season where voting is a part of keeping people in the show, it will cause division. More of that will likely happen when the finale airs on November 21.
