Dancing with the Stars premiere draws salsa criticism and praise for Ezra and Daniella

The dancing drew contrasting reactions: one viewer credited Connor Leavitt with energy and hip movement but called his salsa a “hot mess,” criticizing his technique and footwork. Another cheered Ezra and Daniella with “FINALLY A GOOD DANCE ON THIS PREMIERE.” Scores drew attention, too: the salsa critic reported all 4s and 12 points, while a separate viewer said seeing a 3 on premiere night brought back the “good old days.”
