Lee addressed the incident on Janet Jackson Night on Monday and said:

It looks like this episode made Lee stronger as she ended up with a perfect score on episode 9 on Monday.

About Dancing with the Stars episode 9

The theme of Dancing with the Stars episode 9 was Janet Jackson Night, so the celebrities performed to her iconic songs. While Jimmie Allen (scored 32) and Iman Shumpert (scored 35) chose the cha cha dance style and grooved to Escapade and Rhythm Nation, JoJo Siwa showed her salsa moves to Feedback and scored 39.

Cody Rigsby and Melora Hardin performed paso doble to Black Cat and If, scoring 38 and a perfect 40, respectively.

Olivia Jade’s Argentine tango to Any Time, Any Place gave her 36, and Amanda Kloots earned the perfect score with her jazz (Miss You Much). Lee, too, got 40 for her samba to Jackson’s song All for You.

After the solo and dance-off rounds, the double-elimination took place, and Hardin, Allen, and Jade were in the bottom three. The judges saved Hardin, so Jade and Allen had to pack their bags and leave Dancing with the Stars Season 30 for good.

Dancing with the Stars premieres on ABC every Monday from 8.00 pm to 10.00 pm (ET).
