However, Bobby wasn’t embarrassed by their mid scores at the time. In fact, he believed their placement was a reminder of how dedicated he was to ace their routines.
“I don’t do anything halfway,” he continued. “And that show, they don’t tell you how you’re actually doing. All you know is you’re surviving. I was a fish out of water. I had no idea what I was doing.”
Bobby’s revelation comes months after he reacted to Julianne Hough’s criticism of his performance on the show. Last August, the DWTS cohost told Andy Cohen that she “strongly disagreed” with his win, and Bobby shared his lighthearted thoughts shortly after.
“Julianne Hough can get no slander from me,” he said in an Instagram video at the time. “I was the worst dancer. I take pride in that. Now, I tried as hard as anybody in the history of the show, but I can’t dance now. I couldn’t dance then.”
