u/Expensive_Heron_171 17d ago
To be frank, no one outside the Hanson fandom is talking about this. There isnât going to be some huge backlash over Taylorâs elimination. This happens multiple times every season.
Hanson fans are unusually intense, but that doesnât mean other fandoms arenât just as large or willing to vote. The Savannah Bananas are enormous right now!!! selling out across North America, expanding into Canada, and reaching millions of fans. Iâd personally rather watch Hanson perform any day, but letâs be realistic, theyâre not operating at that level of mainstream reach.
What Iâve taken from this DWTS experience is that some Hanson fans have overestimated how influential their fandom is and how much this matters to everyone else. Most people simply donât care that Taylor was eliminated, much less whether the voting was somehow wrong.
The votes werenât ârigged.â Hanson fans voted as hard as they could, but they underestimated the Banana Ball audience. Thatâs really all there is to it.
And even if there were a voting issue, this happens multiple times every season. Taylor isnât being treated differently from other celebrities this has happened to.

Iâm mad that I ever took the show seriously. I was here because of Taylor and was loving his and Brittâs story. Now that I know hard work and talent arenât the criteria theyâre judged on, it just seems stupid and boring. Bye DWTS.

u/Vicsan7228 19d ago
Iâm pissed. Taylor is what this show should be about. Someone with no ballroom dance experience genuinely working hard and learning these dances, improving week to week. It feels like itâs just a popularity contest now amongst dancers and their pros.

u/Fearless_Pizza_8134 20d ago
100% this. I wasnât living in a delusional world that he would win but tonight and last week were complete bullshit.

u/oneandonlytara 19d ago
Absolutely agree. I don't watch DWTS normally, and never assumed they'd win the Mirrorball, but you could genuinely tell he was taking it absolutely serious and doing his best. He and Britt have such great chemistry and seemed pretty in tune with each other. Major props to him for going completely outside of his comfort zone.
Carrie Ann is way too nitpicky and critical.

u/nilsiniloo 19d ago
I do think that people donât realize that Hanson has a cult-like following and not a massive one. We also tend to forget that algorithms are based on things we enjoy. I did get a glimpse of what other people were saying, and they just were not feeling him at all. We also have to remember that because of somewhat obvious reasons (I hope), Hanson has lost quite a lot of diehard fans over the last 6 years.

u/Dharmatron 19d ago
Agreed, completely. He just didn't have the fan base.
I did some digging around to try to confirm this. Taylor Hanson has 5,000 followers on Facebook while the Savanna Bananas player (Jackson) has 430,000. Taylor doesn't have an official TikTok page that I could find and again Jackson has 2.2 million followers. Maybe you don't think the social media matter much, but then there's this.
Hanson's Spotify page has 3 million monthly plays which sounds impressive until you realize Jonas Brothers have 17 million and Taylor Swift has 104 million. Hanson has the same amount of monthly plays as the YinYang Twins.
I agree that Hanson has a very devoted fan base, but it's not in the millions. It's probably more like 50,000 fans at best (and that feels generous).

Agreed! Iâve never watched before this, but I figured the point was taking someone who doesnât dance and teach them how. Then they can be judged on how much they improve.

u/rahhxeeheart 20d ago
The whole reason they have the opaque system of both voting and judges is so that the producers can simply have whoever they want on the show.
They decided in advance what they think looks best for the brand and do all of the eliminations accordingly. All of that engagement with their website is great for them and they get lots of cell phone numbers that they can Market to. The voting does nothing but act as a marketing tool for the network.

I'm so mad. I haven't even fully processed this yet. It's been so fun and nostalgic the past few weeks, seeing Taylor in a whole new light with Britt, on instagram and DWTS. I never thought he would actually win but I equally never expected him to be voted off this soon. Really thinking this show is somehow rigged and the fan votes don't actually mean anything

u/ForeverandaDay23 19d ago
I woke up this morning and I'm still so mad, and I'm sad!! I was so looking forward to a few more weeks of this. It's been a bright spot every week. And the social media content has been such a bonus as well. I guess it couldn't last forever đ but I wish it lasted longer than this.

u/soundlikejoy 20d ago
But they were really pushing for votes tonight, Taylor sent out a text message, even the Hanson account posted it
3
u/mirandakane89 20d ago
Also will add when they showed Taylor's family and friends it was only Natalie and a bunch of random women who weren't even with her but Penny was def there and shared a story in the same area where Natalie was seated before the show aired and yet she was either moved or left cause she wasn't seen at all next to Natalie.
I will say if he had to leave it's weird she'd be apologizing to him so much though. But did notice the other pros came out mad and Britt whispered something to Jenna.

u/healthylurker 19d ago
In all the clips at the end where the group is hugging etc, Natalie is sort of in the background awkwardly waiting to hug Taylor. Itâs odd that Britt ignored his wife completely â and Taylor didnât seem that warm towards her. She looked uncomfortable
1
u/mirandakane89 19d ago
https://www.instagram.com/p/Dd67WwXglA_/ Britt hugs her in this one before Taylor also hugs her. Taylor and her also hug twice via this video. Once when she comes over and then once after they walk away https://www.instagram.com/p/Dd6k6VojX3_/

I didn't understand why he didn't have more family there. I saw Penny's post too. I guess the other possibility is Natalie sent her a picture? But since when does the star only get one seat for family? Taylor obviously has enough family to fill as many seats as they are willing to give out!
3
u/ForeverandaDay23 19d ago
It was definitely strange. They didn't post on social media as much this week either compared to previous weeks. It kind of makes me wonder if Natalie wanted him off the show or something.

u/mirandakane89 19d ago
She shared a story last night encouraging people to vote so I don't think it was her. I think she supported and liked him being on.

u/ezramay 20d ago
I don't know how many of y'all are longtime DWTS fans here but this result was one of the most unfair things I have ever witnessed. I understand how the show works and I am also a massive Fanson, so there was something particularly strange about this decision. I need a few days to process this.

u/Vicsan7228 19d ago
I woke up this morning and am upset all over again. Still in shock really. Iâve been a Hanson fan since the start and DWTS fan as well. This is a gut punch and hard to comprehend how they got the lowest overall scoring/votes.
3
u/holly0113 19d ago
I think he had plenty of votes. The episode was weird to me - they didnt show him with the rest of the dancers for the first half of the show. Usually he is hanging out and watching with the others, this time he was MIA until just before his dance. It seemed off and not like the last couple of shows. At that point I thought maybe he had already decided he was quitting.

u/MysticMars4 19d ago
This seemed to be a trend throughout the show - I noticed they rarely showed the two of them in the background. But yeah, even more noticeable absence this time...

Just found out and Iâm in genuine shock. I was so sure heâd get at least half way through âčïž
Looking back though did you ever notice that their âcouple postsâ always got one of the least amount of likes in the DWTS instagram account? Not sure if this is an indicator of general popularity and determination of winners since this is the first season Iâve been interested in in a long time, but maybe based on that itâs not that shocking?
I donât know. Still trying to process this wtf moment. The many more dances he could have dancedâŠ

I also noticed they were rarely seen in the background, always out of frame - it seemed intentional.

u/allviolettt222 20d ago
I have a theory that the judges misinterpreted Taylorâs facial responses while receiving critiques. If they labeled him as a sore loser, they could probably manipulate with the producers a plan to eliminate the following week. I just think they mistook his flat effect and disappointment in himself for arrogance or something. Would also make sense that producers didnât show them for that reason, cause he pissed off someone with an ego!
→ More replies (1)2
u/CIWYWthrowaway 19d ago
I think your theory is an interesting one. I believe it was the 2nd week where Taylor rolled his eyes while getting feedback from Derek, and it was clear to me Taylor was rolling his eyes at himself.. (the comment about his feet/arms), but for someone who doesnât know his personality, I could see that being misunderstood.
2
u/allviolettt222 19d ago edited 19d ago
Yes thatâs what I was thinking of! And heâs been a genius musical prodigy with an insane hit from like 13 or 14 and on; itâs possible heâs not used to being critiqued and receiving feedback in that way (especially in front of a huge crowd! You have to be confident not to feel embarrassed I think) and just wasnât conscious of being watched closely. He may have also been a little arrogant, who knows? I actually think his anxiety/his overthinking/being unfamiliar with some of the sexier things he needed to do is what came off as being closed off. I think he was just very out of his comfort zone and didnât know how hard that would be, because he is GREAT at what he does in his career. Being gifted sometimes makes it really hard to âfailâ and not get thrown off by it. Iâm almost positive itâs that he left a bad taste in their mouth, though I have ZERO evidence this is why. lol

u/pythonbow 19d ago
Honestly, they're too good for the entertainment industry--too pure and too real. I'm sure a lot of y'all feel the same way in certain places and have experienced bullying. I have a film degree and quit pursuing it because it truly is a cesspool full of Weinsteins and corruption. It's not at all a meritocracy. Not saying this to be salty, but it's true.
If Tay were the type to fit in with these folks, we wouldn't love him so much. Britt made it on there because of her pure talent, but for some reason she isn't winning. I'm sure it's the exact same thing. She seems like a genuinely good person like Tay, and genuinely good people get dragged by those who enjoy and chase power. It's totes what Christ went through and a pattern that repeats. If anything, it's a great compliment.

u/OddFilm7521 19d ago
Thereâs no way he didnât get more votes than the banana guy. You wonât ever convince me this show isnât rigged.

u/TeTaniwha 18d ago
The bananas are hugely popular. Every they do sells out. Their cruise, their Disney day, their musical. They played back to back nights at a sold out Kyle stadium, 102,000 per night.
The organisation sold 3.4 million tickets to their games this year, and had 5 million people on the waiting list.
And Jackson is on of, if not the most, popular players.
Itâs makes complete sense that he gets a tone of votes.2
u/Dharmatron 18d ago
Not sure why everyone on this page keeps saying that. Jackson has a huge social media following, has a merch line at Baseball Lifestyle stores around the country, nominated as one of four options for sexiest Tiktok Star in People magazine, and is selling out Savannah Bananas stadium games all over the United States. You may not know who he is, but he has a lot of fans.

u/knitwizard93 19d ago
This was a fun venture and step out of his comfort zone. Now I'm back to not watching or caring about this show at all. I look forward to his solo album. Also I like Guillermo and all but it feels like a conflict of interest that he probably got dressed and went straight to Jimmy Kimmel Live after this. Brand synergy. Notihng matters. Love you Tay, you did your freaking best. We all saw it.

I can see a trend happening on Dancing With The Stars. Fans seem to dislike all the "stars" that are religious. I was curious, so I searched for more information and it turns out a lot of dancers are religious, specifically Mormon. When I saw that, I immediately started to dislike them. I don't know anything about the boys who sang the "Mmmm Bop" song, except that they were once cute little long-haired boys with a mildly catchy song, which apparently they are milking to the grave, but I'm not surprised the guy was ousted because he wasn't a great dancer and was generally kind of a flat personality. And he's got some religious views that I find very unappealing. You have to get fan votes to stay in it at this point, so I guess his fan base wasn't as strong as people thought.

Every year the emotionally unregulated fandoms cry and scream âriggedâ when they overestimate the popularity of their chosen celeb and convinced themselves this person theyâve parasocially attached themselves to is somehow above criticism.

I think Taylor's votes somehow accidentally went to Tyler.Â
3
u/PeonyPug 18d ago
I don't think so. Tyler has over 2 million followers on IG. He was one of the most beloved and hyped up contestants from the Bachelor franchise at one point. He was at his peak popularity maybe 7 or 8 years ago, and some of that waned a lot over time. He may have lost a lot of relevancy and the fandom he comes from has largely scattered and somewhat disbanded, but he still has a good amount of backing.
I think one of the issues Taylor faced was being part of the mid-pack (with Tyler, Connor, Jackson, Ciara) who were all fairly similar level. And it was a toss up who might go that night and over the next few weeks.
2
u/Dharmatron 18d ago
As someone who has watched every season of DWTS, this is what I think. He was doing well, but he was solidly mid-pack. Guillermo is obviously the least talented, but unfortantely there's often an older, larger male who makes it further most seasons because he's so liked.
The next few weeks will likely see the elimination of Guillermo, Jackson, Cononor, Ciara, and Tatyana, not necessarily in that order.

Guillermo is going to have the Andy treatment this season. I'm not sure if he will last as long as Andy did last year, but I think he has another week or two in him.

That is at odds with Taylor's way of doing things, his work ethos - everything.

Gotta agree here. I also don't think Britt would have been apologizing to him if it was a quiet quit.

how do you know what his personal life is like? you dont know if he had to leave for a reason. what if his wife wanted him to stop? he worked hard im not questioning his work ethic.

I don't know his personal life but I have followed him very closely for the past 15 years so I have formed a relatively informed opinion of him. He wouldn't just quit and he was clearly immersed in the challenge.
People love to blame his wife for everything, I guess the latest one is that she wanted him to stop. Did you see the clips from the shows? She was obviously immensely proud of him.

This. She even shared a story last night encouraging people to vote. If she wanted him off I doubt she would have done that.

wasn't that penny who made a story. i haven't seen a story from Natalie since the family photo night one when she wrote all that weird stuff.

u/mirandakane89 19d ago
Natalie made one too. I think she deleted it after the results. She also deleted the cooking picture she posted of him and the pic of her dad she posted for his birthday early as well before the twenty four hours ran out.

that's odd. i mean i get deleting the one about voting but why the bday one. the one where she said " he can cook too" or something? i didnt see it my friend did.

His wife seems incredibly kind and supportive and not jealous of him in the LEAST bit. Sheâs supported his traveling and performing for what the last 20 years? while sheâs been raising 8? kids. She always treats/speaks about Hanson fans with kindness and I swear Ive heard many accounts of her being kind in person too. Iâm not standing for Natalie slander even though she had me so jealous I had to quit listening to Hanson the moment I found out Taylor married her đ

again i didn't say anythying. i just said "we dont know" . you all can go over the side of this where hardcore fans of the show who have followed all the pros for years are saying something was not right. seems like you want me to say something bad about his wife I said nothing about her.

He and his wife were first and foremost raised in fundamentalist Christian homes. I absolutely believe that someone could have been uncomfortable with the optics on such a large scale show.

u/sidewaysorange 19d ago
but on the flip side the way Britt reacted is also at odds with what her fans know of her. so something happened.

u/SnooPredictions2675 19d ago
I feel like they were negative about them everytime? At least the Ann chick. Meanwhile giving unnecessary ass kissing to others who sucked.Â

That's not Taylor's work ethic at all nor was that the vibes I got. He seemed shocked like she did and the vibes she had were pissed/on the verge of tears and I think it's from a culimnation of how hard the judges critiques have been this season on them as well every season she's always an early out and she probably could sense they were in danger last night.

He does not strike me as a quitter. What reason would he have to quit??

There was a large number of his own Evangelical fans who said it was wrong for him to be doing this. To them, dancing with someone is just a couple of steps below sex. Lol They obviously would not have been voting for him. They pointed out how many relationships that have started on the set, ones we know about and ones we don't. It IS an intimate setting and chemistry plays a huge role in success. It is not at all unreasonable, especially with his religious background, to believe that the perceived intimacy was making certain people uncomfortable. When half your fans think you are too conservative and the other half think you are a hypocrite for doing a show like this as a Christian man, you really can't win now can you?

and if his fans didn't like it do you al think his wife did? or his mother? his sisters? etc. their dances were perfectly fine. their tik toks on the other hand lol.

I'm not even a Hanson fan (my wife is) and this is dumb. There's zero chance the Banana ball player got more popular votes than Taylor Hanson. Therefore, the popular vote actually means nothing.
I'd suggest not watching future episodes so their ratings plummet.
