“Dancing With the Stars” Opens With a Tribute to the Las Vegas Shooting Victims: Watch

Dancing With the Stars opened on a somber note on Monday, as host Tom Bergeron paid tribute to the victims of the shooting in Las Vegas. “There’s an old saying that the show must go on. And it will,” he began, after a five-minute update on the situation from World News Tonight anchor David Muir. “But first, all of us at Dancing With the Stars want to send our love, thoughts, and prayers to everyone touched by the senseless violence in Las Vegas. Please know that we are doing tonight’s show with you foremost in our minds and hearts.”

Contestant Drew Scott also spoke about the tragedy after his dance with Emma Slater. Scott, a resident of Las Vegas, echoed Bergeron’s sentiments, saying, “I’ve lived in Vegas for many years. And I want to say that all of our hearts here are with the families affected. It’s a really sad situation, but just know that we’re here, our prayers are here for you guys, and we’re here to support.”

From there, the show continued more or less as usual. (Spoilers ahead.) After two eliminations last week, there was no elimination this week, so the focus was entirely on the dances — which were themed around the celebs’ guilty pleasures (boy bands, romance novels, etc.).

See all of the week three rankings below. (As always, these rankings are based solely on scores from Len Goodman, Carrie Ann Inaba, and Bruno Tonioli, but as DWTS fans know, eliminations are based on a combination of scores and votes, so get to voting for your favorite pair.)
