@@Eszter-nd5fg honestly it has always been boring & I feel like this year's has been his most interesting but it doesn't seem like his. Daniella said some of the pros get help with their choreo & it definitely seems like Brandon had help this year bc usually his choreo is even more boring
yes indeed they need to do that performance on the GRAMMY'S OMG THAT DANCE WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD PERFECTION ,,,,THEY SHOULD HAVE WON THAT MIRROR BALL!!! AND EVERYBODY KNOW IT ...
I think what Chandler and Brandon did this season was incredible! They made history of being the first black couple to make it to the finale and this freestyle was so, so good! The best one of the night! Brandon also deserves major props for his choreography this season! Sad they didn’t win, but I’ll always think about this pairing and how great they were
"SAY WHAT!!!!!" How did Chandler & Brandon "NOT WIN!!!?????" They were the "BEST DANCING COUPLE!" It's "SO OBVIOUS!!!" But I get it!! They were not "JUDGED" by their "SKILLED MOVES" & "TALENT". SOOO WRONG!!!! Instead this competition was "STRICTLY JUDGED BY FAVORITISM!!!!" "NOT RIGHT AMERICA!!!!" "NOT PLAYING BY THE RULES!!!!!" The last 2 couples standing should have been "Chandler & Brandon" & "Steven & Ryley" That's For Sure!!!! Out of ALL the Dances from this competition when did "JOEY" ever dance with "SKILLED MOVES?????' He "ALWAYS" Danced TOO SAFE!!! "STEVEN" DANCED WAY BETTER THAN "JOEY" EVER COULD!!!!! BUT YET!! "JOEY WON!!!!" DOESN'T MAKE SENSE AT ALL!!!!!!!!! 😡 👊 Della R. 👊
Still upset that they didn’t at least place second because history was made right here! We’re forever proud of you Chandler you are a winner in our hearts!
there have been COUNTLESS celebs duos in dwts history who’ve gotten the most amount of points total in their season and not won. it’s actually more common unfortunately, the couple with the most points not to win 🤷🏻♀️ still bitter about riker’s season till this day lol.
The viewers will choose a black star like Jordan Fisher or Alfonso Riberio but black females like Chandler as well as Zendaya deserved that mirror ball trophy and never received it.Chandler was the best dancer
@@debrawhitney7748it’s always about race when people don’t agree lmao. I liked chandler and voted for her for a bit in the beginning but then when I realized she was already a professional I stopped. When it comes down to it I enjoyed the performance of Joey more who wasn’t even a big dancer when the show started. He improved. Zendaya I will agree was robbed tho. Older people always won when it aired on ABC
she didn't tho! she's literally a trained & competitive dancer who didn't improve throughout the season & that's the opposite of what the show is about
@ashleyelll she had no training in ballroom dance. and that’s NOT what the show is about. the show is about who is the best dancer (as long as they come from non-ballroom dancing backgrounds).
@@hoaxswift she had ballet training & experience (amongst other types of dance) which is quite literally the fundamentals of all types of dancing. that 100% gives her advantage over other stars on the show also the show has literally never been about who the best dancer was from start to finish. it's about who improves the most & that simply was not Chandler since she started at an unfair advantage
She deserved to win and she was the best dancer this season. I knew she had haters and probably didn't have the votes to win but I'm so upset she didn't even make it to 2nd place, considering she was the most consistent dancer this season, Illona being 2nd feels crazy to me.
I agree with you 100 % I was very disappointed that she didn’t win! Ilona making it to the finals and on top of that being in the second place was a complete joke to me as well! This show is rigged!!!! Also season 27 was the biggest joke as well when Bobby Bones got the trophy which is why I think this show is rigged! 🤦🏻♀️
I'm so sad with how the competition ended it, but one thing for certain--They are both stars!!! Brandon, your choreography was S-Class. I will always be a Chandler and Brandon fan
i am extremely disappointed that these two placed third especially when they were clearly the strongest dancers. this show is living proof that even when you are the most consistent, it still isn’t enough. regardless of the results i am extremely grateful to have witnessed their partnership. they constantly KILLED each and every one of their routines so seamlessly. chandler has a bright future ahead of her and i can’t wait to see what is next for her.
I just can't believe they didn't win this season! They were my favorite couple! Honestly what's the point of having scores if all that is going to be erased by "popularity" and fine, you can be popular, but if the skills surpasses the popularity, she should at least have gotten the second place!
The best dancer this season. No question about it! Such a shame that not enough people showed up for her. She deserved that trophy 🏆. ❤ Congrats anyway Chandler! 🎉🎉🎉
DUDE THIS WAS INSANE OH MY GODDD Chandler and Brandon are so talented and I really really hope Brandon makes it to the finals again because I'd love to see him win a mirrorball.
All great African American dancers from Nicholas Bros, to Cab Calloway, James Brown, Micheal Jackson and many many more are in heaven smiling down on this dance. THIS IS HISTORICAL! AMERICAN HISTORY!!
Thank you so much for the representation! It’s important for everyone to see what black people have contributed to dance. Chandler and Brandon you were definitely robbed. But are we surprised? NO. Great season and you are the winners to me!
This goes so beyond a stupid dance show. To me it speaks to everything that’s wrong in this country. I’m so tired of it. Racism persists. Sexism persists. DWTS did not want to make their show about racism, and by not awarding Chandler, the mirrorball trophy, they absolutely made it about racism. (And sexism.) 😖
@@Super-mr4ynit was a contemporary heavy freestyle which has been done before… Brandon & Chandler’s started with tap, then jazz with a bit of Charleston then went back into Jazz with elements of disco… that’s never really been done before
@@MajesticMyronn I agree theirs was contemporary heavy. im not saying chandler's was bad.. it was actually pretty good. but nowhere near the best finale freestyle. also, chandler didnt grow over the season. if you compare her dancing week 1 to the finale, it remained about the same and that's not at all because she wasn't trying but because the choreo Brandon gave her was too basic. joey earned that win honestly
@@annmonicakitokoeleki hun its general consensus she didn't develop. even the judges commented on same things she did from week 1 to the end. you don't need to praise her. again, she's a technically very good dancer but Brandon didn't give her the opportunity to develop as much as the others (and perhaps there was a barrier because of the fact she was already an experienced dancer in the past)
LOVED that this started with a tribute to the incomparable Nicholas Brothers and unlike the other final performances in this year's finale, Chandler and Brandon's freestyle celebrated DANCE. Their consistently brilliant work throughout the season should've been rewarded with the Mirror Ball!
Agreed! I think Joey was consistently 2nd best throughout the season, so I think his win is still reasonable and deserving. But I think Chandler deserved the win more! That’s why I voted for her! I loved this dance! Brandon did such a great job choreographing this!
did she? she grew up competing in dance which isn't what the show is about. before you say it Charli shouldn't have won but she had a huge fan base unlike Chandler
@@ashleyelll who are you to say what the show is about? They have invited people with dance training since the near beginning of the show. It has never been about not having any prior experience. Chandler was very deserving of the win just like Joey because she worked hard and improved.
As a black singer/performer who has watched this show since 2012, this moment was so inspiring/empowering. Acknowledging the impact Black performers have had in American music culture was so beautiful to see ❤ Thank you Brandon!
Perfect score for an absolutely perfect couple! This dance was extremely important and was a celebration of life, dance & a celebration of black peoples contribution to the world of dance! Bran & Chan should be proud of what they’ve been able to accomplish! It’s a 10 🔥
This was sooooooo groovy! Loved the choreo, Brandon, such a beautiful homage to black dancers. Y'all should be extremely proud. It was incredible. Chandler is a fantastic dancer.
I was excited when I saw they wanted to reference the Nicholas Brothers during rehearsal. When I heard the song from Hellzapoppin start when they hit the dance floor I started crying. Hellzapoppin is considered the greatest piece of Lindy Hop ever put on the big screen. Lindy Hop is a black vernacular dance that originated in the Savoy ballroom in Harlem. It's an incredible and vibrant dance that doesn't get the attention it deserves. Seeing Brandon incorporate some of the moves from Hellzapoppin into this routine as well as the song is just incredible. What a beautiful love letter this is to black dance
She definitely deserved the win. She got robbed of the mirrorball. Out of all of the couples this season, Chandler and Brandon were the only ones who got 4 perfect scores!
I was rooting for Brandon to win his first mirror ball all the way! Don't go sleeping on his choreography! I don't know who Chandler is (in terms of why she is a "star" on DWTS), but baby! She was awesome! I turned the tv off when it was announced that they placed 3rd! 3rd? Wha??? Bravo to them!!
This was the best freestyle in the history of dancing with the stars. We all know why they didn’t win. And is it because they’re both black? You’re damn right it is. I’ve had those of you who say, why are you making this about race because everything in America is about race let’s just be honest and stop lying to ourselves until we except the truth only then can we do something about it.
My ONLY issue is why PAY!!! judges up to 6,000 per episode just to to CRITIQUE dance moves ONLY to let the BULL in the china cabinet place in 2nd.?What can you say in the end?;1st got 360,000.2nd & 3rd got 295,000.At least they got their coins and the TV viewing audience got GOB SMACKED!
I’m still shocked that it took this long to get an all-black couple to the finale. This freestyle had SO much content and steps. I was tired after watching it. Amazing job, Chandler & Brandon! 👏🏽👏🏽
@@asuevill this is true. It did take quite a while for there to be a black pro dancer. Perhaps because ballroom is not the typical dance black dancers specialize in??
Easily top 5 best freestyles in the 33 seasons of this show!! Thank you for representing our culture and showcasing the history of black entertainment ✊🏾✨ PLEASE SUBMIT FOR EMMY 🏆 forever my winners 💐✨🫶🏾
She was the best there! She was at the top of the leaderboard every week doing amazing dances with so much passion! They deserved that trophy just like everybody else (and as a fan I would say even more because of what it would mean) and ending on third place is really so insane for the talent and power they had… Her not winning is bigger than a “I don’t like this dance” it’s a sad and deep reason… and yet they made history on the show and nothing will take this out! I really hope she and Brandon knows they are wonderfull and the best there! Love them so much❤
the fact that this had such a strong message around it, and they were the FIRST black duo to make it to the finale and yet they didn't win? That says something about Dancing With The Stars itself.
God knows I usually don't watch show like this, because I think it's not fair, but my daughter told me about it and asked me to watch it with her. I will never watch this show again. Brandon and Chandler should have won. They are the best dancers in DWTS history.
this freestyle was my favorite of the night ❤️ i think Chandler & Brandon definitely deserved 2nd place or 1st.. 3rd is ludicrous for such a talented dancer! but i guess it was always going to be a popularity contest at the end of the day 😕
I hope she’s so proud of herself. She made history!! One of the best freestyles of the night and one that will be the most remembered in DWTS history. This dance will be talked about for years to come. ❤
Chandler and Branden- a breathtaking MASTERPIECE and, to me, by far the most meaningful, important, ,magnificent, impactful thoughtful dance of the night- Bravo to Two powerful dancers and gifted, intelligent STARS. I was shocked you did not win or place 2nd. But, the truth is, the most talented dancer does not always win or place 2nd. Sometimes they are eliminated even earlier. Stand tall, you are gifts to us all - Bravo 🎉
Best Freestyle and dancer of the season. Winners in my book no matter what the haters say! Cause she got the highest scores all season. They're clearly most talented and I enjoyed watching them all season Go Chandler and Brandon!
It's unfortunate Chandler was robbed. However, she's not the first star to be robbed and I doubt she'll be the last. I stopped taking this show seriously, because it's obvious that it's rigged. Chandler is still a winner in my book. Btw, this is one of my favorite freestyles on dwts. I watched it more than once. Chandler never disappoints.
she wasn't robbed. she grew up competing in ballet & was already a great dancer coming into the show which is why it wasn't impressive how well she danced on the show! also not rigger, she don't have a big fan base nor did she have a captivating personality to gain votes from non fans
She wasn't robbed of anything. Half of DWTS is technique/judges scores. The other half is who America falls in love with and votes for. And while Chandler is insanely talented, Joey is much more relatable and has shown tremendous growth. He came into the show with ZERO dance experience and had nearly perfect form and footwork by the end. He also has the Bachelor franchise base backing him, whereas Chandler's audience is much younger and probably doesn't tune into DWTS. Same with Ilona, a girl with no dance experience who took the world by storm when she went to the Olympics. We can commend Chandler and Brandon for their amazing journey without having to take away from the other couples' wins.
@@ecrawl4902What makes a person relatable? This is the same Americans that voted for a criminal to become president. We know the REAL reason Chandler lost.
@@hoaxswift no it isn't lol. it's always been about not being a trained dancer which is why people have gotten upset about Heather, Morris, Jojo Siwa, Charli, & now Chandler! it's unfair to have trained dancers on the show
I have watched almost every single freestyle that has come out of this show (still looking Laila Ali and Ricki Lake!!). This is by far one of my favorites of all time.
This was fabulous !! Yes, I bet they would have won if more MEN watched dancing than women. Women usually vote for men dancers. Chandler is gorgeous AND talented and Brandon is a great instructor / correographer. Cheers to them both for their hard work and dedication through the entire season. CHEERS !! 🍾🍾🍾
i knew she had haters but third place for a dancer this talented is actually insane 🥲
Brandon choreo’s sucks. He is the reason why Lele and Jordin was eliminated too quickly as well…
she's a trained competitive dance! it's not fun to watch them go on DWTS when they're already good at dancing
@@Eszter-nd5fg honestly it has always been boring & I feel like this year's has been his most interesting but it doesn't seem like his. Daniella said some of the pros get help with their choreo & it definitely seems like Brandon had help this year bc usually his choreo is even more boring
Val would’ve been an amazing partner for her. However I think Brandon did pretty good. He’s still fairly new so I’m sure he’s learning every season.
ARIANA WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE
Upset that they didn’t even place 2nd, by far the best performers of the night and this season!
WHAT ??? ARE YOU KIDDING ME ? What place did they get 😭?
@@hasnaskyscraper3rd
That was the plan, when they didn’t eliminate the two couples last week, that insured their loss. It’s too bad, Brandon may never get another chance.
Agree! They were the best the entire season
@@MajesticMyronn Thanks, it's so unfair tho 🤧 She was the clear winner, even weeks before you could see her level was wayy above the others

Normally the Black professional dancers are paired with the elderly and won't have a chance to win.

They took too long to have black pros.

God knows I usually don't watch show like this, because I think it's not fair, but my daughter told me about it and asked me to watch it with her. I will never watch this show again. Brandon and Chandler should have won. They are the best dancers in DWTS history.
Right! It takes away the credibility of the show because the fandom do not vote for the right person based off of their biases and prejudice.
OH MY GOD
A Nicholas Brothers reference and they DIDNT WIN?!? Ok now I’m PISSED!!!
That mirror ball had their name on it!!!!
this freestyle was my favorite of the night ❤️ i think Chandler & Brandon definitely deserved 2nd place or 1st.. 3rd is ludicrous for such a talented dancer! but i guess it was always going to be a popularity contest at the end of the day 😕
I hope she’s so proud of herself. She made history!! One of the best freestyles of the night and one that will be the most remembered in DWTS history. This dance will be talked about for years to come. ❤
Chandler and Branden- a breathtaking MASTERPIECE and, to me, by far the most meaningful, important, ,magnificent, impactful thoughtful dance of the night- Bravo to Two powerful dancers and gifted, intelligent STARS. I was shocked you did not win or place 2nd. But, the truth is, the most talented dancer does not always win or place 2nd. Sometimes they are eliminated even earlier. Stand tall, you are gifts to us all - Bravo 🎉
So so incredible. My champs no matter what
Yes!
My favorite team of the season! And my favorite freestyle!
Chandler was amazing all season long but can we talk about how great of a dancer Brandon is??? Like I can’t stop watching their lines at 1:40-1:47 !
For them to channel the Nicholas Brothers wad beyond awesome they was by far the best dancers this was taken from them unbelievable 😢
I loved how they used Curtis Mayfield .
this is the second best freestyle i have ever seen on dwts and i've seen every season
Even though they didn't win this freestyle was unforgettable and they were awesome the whole season!
Greetings from Colombia
What an incredible season for these two 🔥🤎 they should be soo proud!! I wish they would’ve won. I voted soo much 😢
1:45 was THE iconic image!!!
Technically 1:46
That alone should have made them the winners!
Chandler's always been a bright presence in the ballroom, but she never exuded so much JOY as she did last night
They may not have won but there’s no way Brandon doesn’t get an Emmy nomination for this fantastic routine
Best Freestyle and dancer of the season. Winners in my book no matter what the haters say! Cause she got the highest scores all season. They're clearly most talented and I enjoyed watching them all season Go Chandler and Brandon!
I can’t believe that she got in third. Definitely a popularity contest
Of course it's a popularity contest. What do you think fan voting is?
The dancers dancing
With them were good
Too. Give them props
They deserve to win💔😭😭. They were were robbed💯. In my heart, they are winners.
It's unfortunate Chandler was robbed. However, she's not the first star to be robbed and I doubt she'll be the last. I stopped taking this show seriously, because it's obvious that it's rigged. Chandler is still a winner in my book. Btw, this is one of my favorite freestyles on dwts. I watched it more than once. Chandler never disappoints.
she wasn't robbed. she grew up competing in ballet & was already a great dancer coming into the show which is why it wasn't impressive how well she danced on the show! also not rigger, she don't have a big fan base nor did she have a captivating personality to gain votes from non fans
@ashelyell it’s based on if you were in ballroom dancing before. she wasn’t.
She wasn't robbed of anything. Half of DWTS is technique/judges scores. The other half is who America falls in love with and votes for. And while Chandler is insanely talented, Joey is much more relatable and has shown tremendous growth. He came into the show with ZERO dance experience and had nearly perfect form and footwork by the end. He also has the Bachelor franchise base backing him, whereas Chandler's audience is much younger and probably doesn't tune into DWTS. Same with Ilona, a girl with no dance experience who took the world by storm when she went to the Olympics. We can commend Chandler and Brandon for their amazing journey without having to take away from the other couples' wins.
@@ecrawl4902What makes a person relatable? This is the same Americans that voted for a criminal to become president. We know the REAL reason Chandler lost.
@@hoaxswift no it isn't lol. it's always been about not being a trained dancer which is why people have gotten upset about Heather, Morris, Jojo Siwa, Charli, & now Chandler! it's unfair to have trained dancers on the show
I think Chandler and Brandon should have won they were spectacular.
1:37-1:45 Is one of the most satisfying sequences I've seen in a minute.
her coming in 3rd is DIABOLICAL
Chandler and Brandon deserved to win - Hands Down!!!!
I don’t know how she didn’t place second looks a lot more put together and collected than others
I have watched almost every single freestyle that has come out of this show (still looking Laila Ali and Ricki Lake!!). This is by far one of my favorites of all time.
This dance was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!
Best freestyle periodt.
Best freestyle of the night by FAR, incredible job truly… so creative, meaningful, and fun all in one!
BEST FREESTYLE OF THE NIGHT
I think its fair to say that Brandon is an elite dancer and mentor!
This was fabulous !! Yes, I bet they would have won if more MEN watched dancing than women. Women usually vote for men dancers. Chandler is gorgeous AND talented and Brandon is a great instructor / correographer. Cheers to them both for their hard work and dedication through the entire season. CHEERS !! 🍾🍾🍾
Len would have ADORED this dance.
I’m glad they’re included in the tour!!!❤❤❤❤
the transition from "I've been better Carrie Ann" to "Never been better carrie ann" OH MY GOSH I LOVE THIS WOMAN!
GREAT TRIBUTE PIECE 👏🏾👏🏾
Another league another feel altogether loved it...... thank you both sooooo much amazing job
