- Carrie Ann Inaba hit back at fans criticizing her scoring this season on Dancing With the Stars.
- The longtime judge posted a TikTok set to Taylor Swift's song "Actually Romantic."
- Carrie previously addressed the scoring controversy on Instagram.
Carrie Ann Inaba is once again defending herself against Dancing With the Stars fans who think she's scoring this season unfairly. This time, the longtime judge hopped on TikTok to post a video of herself getting ready while singing along to Taylor Swift's new song "Actually Romantic."
The lyrics in question? "But it's actually sweet, all the time you've spent on me / It's honestly wild, all the effort you've put in / It's actually romantic."
She captioned the video, "my Wednesday morning anthem."
Carrie previously addressed scoring drama in the comments of an Instagram post celebrating Dedication Night.
"It’s okay to disagree about what we see," she said. "That’s what makes our show great. You have a say in the matter. We want you to vote for what you love and believe in. I appreciate your comment and the way you expressed your feelings. ❤️ thank you for your passion and your opinion."
FYI, Alfonso Ribeiro explained how DWTS scoring works back in September after Bruno Tonioli held up a score of 7 despite the screen showing 8.
"Just to clarify something, our judges key in their scores right after the dance and then they are locked regardless of which paddle they hold up," Alfonso explained. "We go with their locked score. So Bruno keyed in an 8, so Whitney’s total was 15."
Julianne Hough added, "Oh actually, just came through my ear right now, Bruno actually put in an eight, so we have to correct it. It's a 15...We love live television!"
