Will Dancing With The Stars judges score pregnant Allison Holker and Andy Grammer unfairly to get the pregnant pro dancer off DWTS quickly? Dancing With The Stars’ Week 4 episode proved to be an exciting one, pro dancer Allison Holker dropped a bomb on DWTS fans and announced that she was currently pregnant – and she and her husband were expecting baby number two.
Allison also revealed that she was going to make Dancing With The Stars history, and remain in the competition and “dance through her pregnancy” with her celeb partner Andy Grammer. Grammer even joked that now they had an unfair advantage because they were a team of three now.
Obviously having a pregnant pro dancer on Season 21 of Dancing With The Stars is great for ratings, and is creating some nice buzz for the ABC dancing competition. But, how long are TPTB going to really let Allison Holker dance on stage with Andy Grammer? She is already four months pregnant, although her baby bump is non-existent because she is in tip-top shape for DWTS.
Is it really safe for Allison to be out there dancing, spinning, and twirling around in high-heeled shoes on stage? We’re going to assume that she and Andy will cut out any lifts from their performances, but who knows?
DWTS fans have taken to the internet to speculate, and general consensus is that Allison Holker’s pregnancy has basically sealed her dance partner Andy Grammer’s fate. Andy has already been receiving ridiculously low scores from the judges. And, a popular theory among Dancing With The Stars fans is that Carrie Ann, Julianne, and Bruno were instructed by the producers and TPTB to low-ball Andy and Allison, so that they can get them out of the competition before something happens to Holker. The potential liabilities and bad press possibilities are truly endless.
Sure, Allison may have signed some sort of clause promising not to sure the network if she or her unborn baby does get in injured on stage. But, we can all agree that if a pregnant woman got injured on live television, or something happened to her baby while she was shaking and jiving with Andy Grammer – the TV show would not be able to recover from the backlash, and the network might want to wash their hands of it all together.
