Eric McCandless // Getty Images Dancing with the Stars judge Carrie Ann Inaba has been getting backlash for calling out Guillermo Rodriguez for not having any “joy” during his dance to “Obsessed” on Mariah Carey Night, and now Witney Carson is weighing in.
Speaking to TV Insider , Witney explained that Guillermo wasn’t smiling during the performance because he was in character. “I think it depends on the song and it depends on the character,” she said. “Mariah Carey is very much a diva. I don’t think Guillermo’s light dims no matter what. His light will always shine.”
Witney then called out Carrie Ann’s comment directly, saying, “I felt like that was an ‘out of pocket’ comment from Carrie Ann.”
In case you missed it, Carrie Ann told Guillermo, “What was going on? No, I’m serious. Where is all your joy?” She then asked him to find “that special thing that you bring every time. I felt like you were dimming your light a little bit in this dance.”
Reacting to the audience booing at her, Carrie Ann added, “Look, this is what I get paid for, people. I want to tell you because I don’t want you to ever dim your light. You’re special, and you have a natural gift that we all need. Don’t ever not smile in a dance, I need your light. We all do.”
