"Dancing with the Stars" delivered plenty of drama on TikTok Night. The third episode of Season 34 aired Tuesday, September 30, with 12 celebrity contestants performing routines set to viral hits.

The night featured everything from Cha Cha and Salsa to Tango and Quickstep. It also included standout moments, such as Robert Irwin tearing off his shirt mid-routine and several contestants earning their best scores of the season.

But the most dramatic moment came at the end. Hosts Alfonso Ribeiro and Julianne Hough announced the results in two rounds. The first group of safe couples included Jordan Chiles and Ezra, Jen Affleck and Jan, Whitney Leavitt and Mark, Robert Irwin and Witney Carson, and Hilaria Baldwin and Gleb.

The second wave of safe contestants were Alix Earle and Val, Scott Hoying and Rylee, Dylan Efron and Daniella, and Danielle Fishel and Pasha. That left Andy Richter and Emma, Lauren Jauregui and Brandon, and Elaine Hendrix and Alan in the bottom three.

Moments later, the result was revealed. Lauren and Brandon were eliminated, a decision that left the studio crowd gasping and viewers online stunned.
