Dancing With The Stars pro Lindsay Arnold took a break from the show to focus on raising her daughters. But she still tunes in each and every week to cheer on her youngest sister, Rylee Arnold.

This year, Rylee is paired with Olympic gymnast Stephen Nedoroscik. They were fan favorites right out of the gate, but some have criticized them in recent weeks for failing to improve much.

However, Lindsay won’t stand for online bullies and trolls. Read on to see how she responded.

Lindsay Arnold Sticks Up For The DWTS Pros Online

From TikTok to Reddit, DWTS fans love discussing the latest episodes. But lately, things have taken a bit of a sour turn. Many viewers have really harsh opinions about the pro dancers.

But Lindsay Arnold won’t let the mean comments slide.

“Saw this Lindsay comment and took a screenshot, later I went back to the video and didn’t find the comment anymore 👀” one Redditor shared on the platform. They attached a screenshot of Lindsay clapping back at DWTS fans critiquing pros, particularly her younger sister Rylee.

“I would love to see any of yall in this comment section taking on the job of being a pro,” the professional dancer wrote. “Then come back and tell me if you still wanna say the things you are saying about the INCREDIBLE pros we have on the show this season. I give props to EVERY single one of them.”

Many Redditors actually agreed with Lindsay’s comment, even if she did delete it. Many pointed out that many Dancing With The Stars viewers vastly underestimate how hard it is to come up with new routines week after week and teach someone else to dance.

Comments included:

  • The armchair ‘pros’ at home are killing the show”
  • I can’t fault her for defending her sister and her friends, knowing all the work that goes into the job herself.”
  • She’s 100% correct 👏🏻👏🏻 the comments are ridiculous, at the end of the day it’s a TV show for entertainment purposes. People need to relax.”
  • Yes Lindsay!!! They are all amazing, half these haters can’t fill those shoes on their best day!!”

Some DWTS Fans Injure Themselves Trying To Recreate Dances

Many DWTS fans are seeing how difficult some of these moves are firsthand. After Witney Carson and Danny Amendola went viral for their Dedication Night performance, they also issued a tutorial for those trying the moves at home.

Apparently, some DWTS fans have broken hips from trying to recreate the move where Danny lifts Witney off the ground by her foot.

Clearly these professional dancers have a lot of skill. There are few fans who could actually do what they do each week.
