Jimmie Allen says goodbye after shocking elimination during Week 8 of Dancing With The Stars.
Eight weeks into season 30 of Dancing with the Stars, country singer Jimmie Allen’s journey has come to an end. Allen and his partner Emma Slater danced twice during the Janet Jackson-themed broadcast. The couple scored a 32 out of 40 for their cha cha to “Escapades” but lost the dance-off round when judge Bruno Tonioli awarded two bonus points to Olympic gymnast Suni Lee and her partner Sasha Farber.
At the end of the night, Allen was eliminated along with celebrity Olivia Jade, exiting the competition just shy of the semi-finals. The dancing may be over for Allen, but country fans can catch him back on stage later this week as he performs live at the CMA Awards Wednesday, November 10 on ABC.

Jimmie Allen stuns with incredible performances during week seven of Dancing With The Stars.
Dancing With The Stars is seven weeks into its historic 30th season and country star Jimmie Allen is still going strong. With Allen back on tour, the singer and his partner, Emma Slater have been rehearsing on the road with his family in tow. To make this week even harder, each dancer performed twice on the “Queen” themed broadcast.
Allen’s first dance, a Viennese waltz to “Somebody to Love” earned the duo a 38 out of a possible 40 from the judges, who commented on how much Allen is improving each week. The second round was a face-off featuring three couples dancing to the same song to win bonus points from the judges. Allen and Slater performed a foxtrot to “Pressure” against celebrities Olivia Jade and JoJo Siwa. None of the judges awarded bonus points to Allen, but his original scores and fan votes were enough to keep him in the competition, and he will advance to next week.
Jimmie Allen fans can vote for him and other celebrity favorites when Dancing With The Stars airs Mondays at 8PM ET on ABC.

Jimmie Allen gave an incredibly moving and emotional performance during week six of Dancing With The Stars.
This week was Horror Night on Dancing with the Stars, and despite the spooky theme, Jimmie Allen was quite emotional during the Monday night broadcast. Allen and his partner, Emma Slater danced a contemporary piece designed to resemble a scene from the movie, A Quiet Place. Allen and Slater thrilled judges and fans alike, earning their first 10s of the season and a combined judges score of 38, allowing them to sail through to the next round. The country singer and father of three was moved to tears after the dance, explaining that the theme of the performance, protecting those you love at all costs, resonated so deeply that he couldn’t help but convey his emotions.

Jimmie Allen scored two bonus points during a special two-night Disney Week Special for week four of Dancing With The Stars.
Four weeks into season 30 of Dancing With the Stars, Jimmie Allen continues to do country music proud. Allen danced twice across the two night Disney-themed contest and showed just how much he is improving every week. An emotional Allen dedicated the first dance to his father who died of kidney failure in 2019. The pasa doble with partner Emma Slater to “I’ll Make a Man Out of You” from Mulan earned the pair a total score of 30 out of 40. Allen also won the night’s special bonus point competition for two extra points to who best completed the ‘Mickey Challenge.’
On night two, Allen earned his first 9s of the season for a jazz dance to Billie Eilish’s “Bad Guy”. When the judges’ scores were combined with fan votes, Allen was safe, and will continue on to next week of the competition.

Jimmie Allen danced his way through week three with a performance to “Outrageous” during Britney Spears Week on Dancing With The Stars.
It was Britney Night on this week’s episode of Dancing with the Stars, and it turns out country star Jimmie Allen is a Britney Spears superfan. After dancing a salsa with partner Emma Slater to “Outrageous”, Allen proudly announced that he has seen Britney live 8 times and considers himself a huge fan. Unfortunately, the judges didn’t love the dance as much as Allen loves Britney, but the scores (6s from Len Goodman and Carrie Ann Inaba and a surprise 8 from Bruno Tonioli – Derek Hough did not attend out of an abundance of caution due to potential covid exposure) and fan votes during the live show were enough to send Jimmie through to the next round.
While Allen is enjoying his time on the show, it’s hard being away from his 15-month-old daughter Naomi and his wife Alexis, who is about to give birth to their second child. “The baby is due anytime!” Allen said, joking with host Tyra Banks that he told his wife if she sees a foot popping out on Mondays or Tuesdays (when the show tapes in Los Angeles) that she needs to hold that baby in.

Jimmie Allen danced his way through week two with a fan-favorite performance of his hit song “Make Me Want To” on Dancing With The Stars.
Country stars are no strangers to the Dancing With The Stars ballroom and Season 30 is no exception. Past competitors on the popular show include Lauren Alaina, Kellie Pickler, Wynonna Judd, Chuck Wicks, Jana Kramer, Billy Ray Cyrus, Sara Evans, and country radio personality Bobby Bones. Now, this season’s Jimmie Allen is taking his shot at winning the coveted mirror ball trophy. Representing for the country music scene, Kellie Pickler and Bobby Bones have each come away with the top prize for their respective seasons. Lauren Alaina and Jana Kramer each came close, both finishing in fourth place in the competition that pairs celebrities with ballroom dance professionals to dance for America’s votes.
Jimmie Allen and his partner, Emma Slater, kicked off this season last week with a Tango to “The Way I Are” by Timbaland featuring Keri Hilson. This past Monday, September 27th, the pair took the floor again with a Rumba, but this time featuring a very special backing track; Allen’s own “Make Me Want To”. The judges praised both the song and the dance, and the scores from the panels combined with Americas votes were enough to put the “Freedom was a Highway” singer through to the next round. Fans can vote for Allen and other celebrity favorites when Dancing With The Stars airs Mondays at 8PM ET on ABC.

Country artists regularly share their hearts with the world through their music, but on Monday night, Lauren Alaina went a step further. The American Idol alum is currently competing on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars, and chose to dance a contemporary piece to her brand new song, “The Other Side”. The ballad is a beautiful tribute to her stepfather Sam Ramker, who passed away after a short battle with cancer.
Alaina has opened up about her family’s loss before, but dancing to a song she wrote about his last moments on earth showed a vulnerable side we rarely see. As if the stars couldn’t have aligned more for this important piece, the broadcast happened to air on the one year anniversary of his passing.
A visibly emotional Alaina danced beautifully through the entire song but collapsed in tears into her mother’s arms as soon as it was over, and again when her partner, Gleb Savchenko, comforted her before they received scores from the judges.
“He was always my champion. He was always my number one fan,” Alaina said in an Instagram post before Monday’s performance. “I wrote ‘The Other Side’ in Sam’s memory. I wrote this song so that he can live on, and never be forgotten.”
Anyone who has experienced loss will find comfort in lyrics that depict a pain-free world where our loved ones will wait for us. Written by Alaina, Jon Nite, and Zach Kale, this song reminds us that the ones close to our hearts never truly leave us.
“Don’t you cry for me ’cause I’m in God’s glory / And I can see his face, it’s amazing / I know you have doubts but I see it right now / I promise it’s real, keep praying / I’ll be waiting, take your time / And go write a story / That you can’t wait to tell me / On the other side / Oh, oh, on the other side”
Faith, love, and loss have always been central themes in country music, but Alaina’s willingness to share them on a national stage shows how brave the Georgia native truly is.
“The Other Side” comes on the tails of Alaina’s last release, “Getting Good”. After Dancing with the Stars, she will headline for the first time on That Girl Was Me Tour before rejoining Blake Shelton, Trace Adkins, John Anderson and the Bellamy Brothers on the 2020 Friends & Heroes Tour.
“The Other Side” is now available everywhere you buy or stream music. Take a listen below and check out more new recently released music on our ‘New Country Music’ playlist. Be sure to give the playlist a follow for your weekly new country music fix.

Lauren Alaina may think she belongs on a farm instead of in the ballroom but she brought her Georgia roots to Los Angeles last night for the Dancing with the Stars season 28 premiere. A video introduction showed her meeting her partner, Gleb Savchenko for the first time. “I feel like I’m going to prom and I’m waiting for my date to get here,” Alaina told the camera.
Dancing the Cha-Cha to “Man! I Feel Like a Woman” by none other than country superstar, Shania Twain, Alaina dazzled on the dance floor in a green costume with a large brown belt and plenty of sparkles. She had tears in her eyes as she came off the floor and explained just how nervous she was before making her Dancing with the Stars debut. “I was praying and feeling like I might throw up,” she laughed.
The judges were impressed, giving Lauren a score of 19, the third-highest total and described her performance as “very polished” and calling her a “sultry southern belle.” Scores will carry over to next Monday when live voting begins. The songstress had plenty of people cheering her on as the camera panned to her close family and friends clapping as she got her scores. Also in the audience was country music radio host and last year’s champion, Bobby Bones who posted a sweet message to his friend shortly after her performance.

If you have tickets to Lauren Alaina’s ‘That Girl Was Me’ Tour originally scheduled for the fall, you will have to wait until January 2020 to catch the reigning ACM New Female Vocalist of the Year. Alaina announced this morning on Instagram that she will be postponing her ‘That Girl Was Me Tour’ due to her guest spot on the dancing competition Dancing With The Stars. She shared in the caption “This was THE hardest decision ever, but my team and I have decided to postpone the #ThatGirlWasMeTour to do Dancing With The Stars. After talking to a few of my friends who have been on the show, I realized I couldn’t give the show and the tour 100%. I always want to deliver the best performances I can, so we have moved the tour to early next year. Dancing with the Stars is a once in a lifetime opportunity that I am so excited about.” She adds that tickets will be available for a refund if you can’t make the new tour date.
Alaina joins superstars like Karamo Brown from Netflix’s Queer Eye, the lastest Bachelorette Hannah Brown, Dawson’s Creek actor James Van Der Beek and many more. For the full cast and more information about the cast this season click here.
The tour will kick off with two dates in Nashville on January 15th & 16th and makes a stop in New York City at Bowery Ballroom on January 27th before ending the run on February 8th in Atlanta, Georgia. Fans can keep an eye out for additional tour dates which will likely be added in the coming future. One of our 2019 Artists To Watch, Filmore will remain as her direct support for the entirety of the tour.
Alaina has been a rising star in the country music genre ever since being named the runner-up on the tenth season American Idol. Since then, she has been perfecting her songwriting craft and has celebrated two number one hits, “Road Less Traveled” which was the title track to her 2017 sophomore album as well as a duet with Kane Brown “What Ifs”.
By the time she starts her ‘That Girl Was Me’ Tour, fans can look forward to incredible dance moves to enhance her live show even more.
