Alix Earle earned Lady Gaga’s approval for her performance on “Dancing With the Stars.”
After Earle posted clips of her Halloween costume — a nod to Lady Gaga’s 2009 “Paparazzi” music video — on her TikTok, Gaga showed her love for the 24-year-old influencer and artist in the comments.
“Girl, I love you,” Gaga wrote in her response to the TikTok video. “And I support you on DWTS! Thanks for that, that’s so sweet.”
Earle also referenced Lady Gaga during her performance alongside partner Val Chmerkovskiy in this week’s “Halloween Night” episode on October 28. The couple danced a tango to Billie Eilish’s “Bury a Friend,” while the intro featured the duo emerging from a pit of earth, similar to Gaga’s “skeleton pit” from her “The Mayhem Ball” tour. Gaga uses the prop while singing “Perfect Celebrity.”
Earle has often named Gaga as his favorite singer — and it appears Earle is one of Gaga’s favorites on the ABC show’s 34th season. On Friday, it was revealed that the “Halloween Night” episode averaged 6.74 million total viewers. It’s another season high, the network reports, and the sixth consecutive week “DWTS” is up since the season premiere.
The “Halloween Night” episode was up 2% from the previous week (6.63 million on October 21) and increased despite airing opposite Game 4 of the World Series on Fox.
