Apparently, there is one Strictly Come Dancing that absolutely results in eliminations more often than all the others.

Dancing with the Stars Season 33 is approaching its coronation next winner of the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy among TV schedule for 2024. To say that competition is at its lowest would be an understatement. When it comes to elimination, it can be difficult to determine exactly what causes a contestant to ultimately lose. However, given recent evidence, there is apparently a surefire way to eliminate the pair. More precisely, it would appear that one dance results in more people getting injured more often than not.

VegasInsider Researchers. com (via TV Insider) collected more than 3,300 dances from all 33 seasons of the series. Dancing with the Stars. After excluding types such as group dances and routines performed for weeks without elimination, they narrowed it down to 2,600 dances for the purpose of collecting data used to determine which dance led to the most eliminations. Of the 15 dance types, the cha-cha seemed to be the deciding factor for 38 couples, with tango just behind for 33 couples. Meanwhile, mambo contributed to the elimination of eight couples.

It’s interesting to think that cha cha is at the top of the list when it comes to this particular metric. However, it should be said that these numbers do not necessarily mean that if you perform the dance, you are guaranteed immediate elimination. Fans who watch the show can tell you that choreography and performance are important when it comes to the reception of a performance.

To date, no couples who competed in the Cha Cha in Season 33 have been eliminated. Of course, the situation can always change as the season progresses, and only the most experienced couples remain.

Regardless of the dance, many celebrities are doing well this season. Olympic rugby player Ilona Maher achieved great success with her Encanto performance on Disney night. At the time, she and Alan Bersten were performing jazz to “Surface Pressure” (and Bersten’s donkey stare was basically nightmare fuel). DVTS turned out to be an unexpected participant Danny Amendola and his partner Witney Carson emerged as the top contenders after their modern dance to the X Ambassadors’ “Unsteady.” The program became so popular that it went viral on TikTok.

When it comes to the safest dance, the jive and quickstep are tied at the top with 197 safe pairs, and coincidentally, the mambo is again at the bottom of the list with 38 safe pairs. Not only is the Cha Cha Cha the most likely to result in a couple being eliminated, but it is also the second most dangerous dance on the show with 170 negative points. However, he trails the tango with a weight of 178, meaning that these dances result in the most eliminations and end up at the bottom in the results.

Armed with the knowledge of which dances can obviously lead to pair eliminationI can’t wait to watch DVTS move forward. Again, don’t rely too heavily on these numbers. However, I would be lying if I said I wouldn’t be more interested in analyzing any cha-cha performances in the future.

Fans will only have to tune in Dancing with the Stars Tuesdays at 8:00 pm ET on ABC and from Disney+ subscription to see if the data trends continue.
