‘Dancing With The Stars’ Secrets Exposed — Find Out Which Stars Are Feuding On Set

Nyle DiMarco is already turning into a Dancing with the Stars sensation. After scoring 23 points in the first week of the show, the deaf model has reportedly made a number of other male contestants jealous. According to the International Business Times, the awesome performance DiMarco turned in has caused a lot of backlash with other members on the show.

The deaf model can’t hear any sound, nor is he able to feel any vibrations, and after the judges scored him an 8, 7, and 8, awarding him with a solid score of 23 points in his first dance, he was quick to give credit to dancing partner Peta Murgatroyd.

“It’s actually Peta. I follow her with my eyes.” DiMarco said, reports Radar Online.

However, despite DiMarco’s humble attitude, an on-set source said that “Nyle has been getting a lot of backlash from others on the cast because he was the star of the show last week. Although he had a slightly difficult time learning the dance because he is deaf, Nyle is extremely devoted to winning this season.”

The source also added that people are jealous of him, not only because he can dance so well but because he looks good doing it.

“People are jealous because the man is simply stunning,” the on-set source added.

Of course, DiMarco is was already the winner of the reality TV show America’s Next Top Model Season 22! And after his DWTS performance, the source said his fan club completely blew up.

So who are the other competitor’s eyeing DiMarco? According to the source, NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown, 27, former NFL quarterback Doug Flutie, 53, NFL linebacker and Superbowl champ Von Miller, 27, Boyz II Men singer Wanya Morris, 42, and journalist Geraldo Rivera “seem to be jealous of him, because he is so young and hot.”

And if jealousy wasn’t enough, the source also revealed that some of the men on set have been making fun of DiMarco.

“They think because he cannot hear them he doesn’t know,” the source added. “But his camp knows, and he is just using this criticism to push him even harder.”

However, Week 2 of Dancing with the Stars didn’t go as smoothly for DiMarco. AceShowbiz states that the judges weren’t pleased with DiMarco’s dance moves in the rumba with pro partner Petra. The judges thought the ANTM winner was being too aggressive with the Latin dance even though the crowd loved him, applauding his performance.

After winning over the crowd in the first episode, it’s obvious fans are impressed by his dancing ability even though he is 100 percent deaf. And despite the error, the judges still rewarded him with a score of 20 out of 30, saving him from elimination in the “Latin Night”-themed episode.

But DiMarco knows he needs to improve his dance moves in order to stay on the show. During a rehearsal segment, DiMarco mentioned the he needs to prove himself as a dancer and not as someone who evades elimination due to sympathy votes.

Nevertheless, DiMarco survived the first round of eliminations, which left veteran journalist Geraldo Rivera and pro dancer Edyta Sliwinska in the hot seat.

The unlucky pair was the first to be eliminated, but Rivera took the loss exceptionally well, saying, “If I didn’t get eliminated tonight I would have demanded a recount.”

But judge Carrie Ann Inaba was shocked by Geraldo’s elimination, pointing out in her blog that she thought another contestant would be the one exiting the dance floor.

“I thought it might be Mischa Barton and Artem Chigvintsev, but I am glad that after her breakthrough last night, she will have yet another chance to find her inner dancer. And just so no one gets upset, I don’t often guess the eliminations right. I have a knack for always guessing wrong, so don’t take any predictions from me.”

So fans, what tell us what you think. Are the other men in the show really jealous of all the attention ANTM winner DiMarco is getting? And does he have what it takes to win Dancing with the Stars? Let us know in the comments below.
