Me. I am the biggest winner of last night's episode because I've loved and adored Prince since I was two years old, and this week's dances completely melted my heart in the purplest of ways! ABC The entire night was tinted an electric shade of purple, as the competing couples left everything on the ballroom floor set to Prince's biggest hits, in the hopes of securing a spot in the finale.

Of course the one true MVP of this Dancing with the Stars season, little Olivia, watched the show in her big brother's arms.

That kid's gonna be something else to try to beat. Eric Mccandless / Getty Images The judges raved as confetti spilled over the ballroom in celebration of Robert's perfect score. "For Prince, a superstar jive would do," Bruno Tonioli said. "You did that. All that energy could power the country." Eric Mccandless / Getty Images And what does Robert do after getting the highest of praise and a perfect score? He credits his partner, Witney Carson. We love a gracious king. Eric Mccandless / Getty Images For Robert and Witney's second performance, I literally had to look up the song they danced to because the screams were so deafening in the ballroom I could barely make it out. (It was "WOW," btw.) Eric Mccandless / Getty Images The pair brought the traditional Viennese waltz to a sexy simmer. Bruno screamed, "That was so thrilling I wanted to see the sequel!" Eric Mccandless / Getty Images Same, Bruno, same. **Proceeds to look for Dancing with the Stars tour tickets.** Eric Mccandless / Getty Images Derek Hough needed a group hug from his fellow judges before he could articulate his critique. "That was ferocious," he finally said. Robert said the performance felt like "the feeling of flying." Eric Mccandless / Getty Images Dancing with the Stars fans on Twitter are already predicting that Robert and Witney will win the finale next week.ROBERT IRWIN IS MY WINNER #DWTS- Grace (@mattysblacksuit) November 19, 2025 @mattysblacksuit / Via Twitter: @mattysblacksuit ROBERT CLARENCE IRWIN OUR JIVE KING!!!! #DWTS pic.twitter.com/CNw5rqOpaY- hayley ⁸¹ (@rhrh1800) November 19, 2025 HBO Max/ @rhrh1800 / Via Twitter: @rhrh1800 Real talk...
